I went back to my first ever rp that I was admin of, and read through all my wall posts and read through all the rooms. And . I really miss that rp (unbreakable academy) and all the people there, I have NEVER felt like I was apart of an rp family until that roleplay, and I haven't ever gotten the same exact feeling from any other roleplay so far. I miss my other admin, Hypersomnia, I miss my "brother Kris" who's account has been deactivated for a year, I miss so many other characters and people that have since become inactive on rpr, or I simply can't find.

The second rp that was very special to me was Quaffles and Quills where I played Jiyeon about a year ago. I miss them too. So much.

But onto the point. I've been on/off rpr now ever since I dropped out of Quaffles and Quills and since UA became inactive two years ago. And now that I'm back, and have joined a few rps, I realized how different things are, roleplay don't feel as friendly and connected as they used to, and there are hardly any good plots left. Everything now is just crack, match making, or city themed. And that makes me really really sad. A part of me wants to reopen UA but I can't find any old members to reconnect with, and it doesn't seem like people are interested in rp's with actual plots.

Basically, I'm really sad and nostalgic right now ;-;

QQ is still around... though dying... (head admin here, hi! XD) but I know a lot of people from there are on my other rp instead now which is a wolf au one.
But yeah... RPR has changed a lot in the past two years.
It's rare to find rps with decent themes, which is why I am in so few now, and instead more focus on creating them myself (am working on a dragon rider one).
Most of the time now, if you want decent plots and can't be bothered to slog through the long lists of rps... then it's all done in pm etc.
I know right now a lot of people are busy too, so replies are slow in general but yeah... I miss old rpr... a lot.

i think the number of 'quality rpers' (i'm sorry to word it this way, but that's how it is to me; quality rpers are para/novella writers who take a lot of time to craft a personality for their character with background story etc, and wo develop their characters while roleplaying; and those are also the ones who are interested in plots and themes and settings) on rpr has decreased by a lot. either ppl grew out of rping or they are too busy or they are fed up with how things are on rpr.
and i, too, think that rpr is not very friendly for lit rpers ;u;

( but if you have an amazing concept for a rp i'd like to join.
i miss those quality rps too )
