Y e, so...
This is the last ugly RPR questionnaire I'll have (at least until the community throws me for another loop), so I wanted to make this one count. I've been trying to find the right time to ask this, but I don't think there's really even a wrong time. I just wanted to know something, and no, this isn't a poll.
But tell me...
What do you like about RPR?
I'll be honest, it's so easy for all of us to go around and rant about what this site doesn't do FOR us or what's it's done TO us. It's easy for us to discredit it, but I find it odd that every person who calls this place "negative" or "toxic" is still here. Hell, my cheap is still here. That doesn't make any of us weak or dependent--- but I figure there's something inherently, purely decent about this place that keeps us here. I wanna give this site the benefit of the doubt and say it isn't JUST because of embittered habit that we're here... You can throw a stone at any of the 10 blogs made each day and hit at least ONE ranting about the people or the site in itself. I've written my fair share. And I know that, as relieving as it is, it's also pretty strange because if the owner of this site deleted it 5 seconds from now I'd be pretty devastated.
Y E, I'd move on and you'd probably find me flippin at Tumblr or whatever. But I'd honestly, truly miss this place... And I think a few others would too.
So tell me... What do you like about RPR or the community? Please don't post any "I like RPR but..." or "I used to like RPR..." No. Let's, for once, think of the positives of this site. After all, this place has done nothing. It's just a forum--- a code in the form of a giant website. It, alone, is incapable of harm.
...
I, for one, like RPR because of the convenience. I love just logging into one account and having so many charries sorted out. Each with their own stories and layouts and personas. It's amazingly refreshing to finally find a place MADE for roleplaying, and it's legit why I haven't left it yet.
I also love RPR for the unity that exists in one inherent similarity--- Kpop. Whether you like the music or not, we all at least know what it is. I've been on other forums before, and never have I been able to talk freely about or even mention any of that. I was able to adapt Kpop as, not just a genre, but a culture that I could share with others just as open-minded.
Finally... I love RPR for the people. Sure, we don't all get along. Sure hits the fan and things fall to pieces. That's life in and of itself, though, and I've come to accept that. I can complain about this site day in and day out, but it's through this damn site that I made friendships that I won't ever forget. I've fallen into contact with people who have truly healed me--- whether they are still a part of my "journey" or not. I've smiled and I've cried, all while clutching my phone to my chest or resting my head against the keyboard. Never before had I ever felt that someone you've never met could change your life--- but they have. You have.
And I appreciate that.
