Well, I have been noticing something strange. I have about 20 rps, which in my opinion is not very much for my time on this website but that is not what I am here to talk about. I am here to talk about the fact more than 3/4 of my rps are all done with a dominant character. Yeah sure this might not be everyone's cup of tea, I know that much but I feel like there is a lack of diversity in my rps. I have posted for other characters, getting no replies. I believe I even saw tumble weed rolling in one of my posts. Once I post for my dominant character, boom! I get like 7 replies even if my post was ok or not that great. I spent an hour last time trying to type up a good pitch for one of my characters and.... No one, not a single person replied.
-_-
I have grown to dislike this lack of diversity, either I get no rp or some rp with the same character and you know which one I am going to choose.

Well from what I observed, the Adult Section of the rp tend to be more aligned to fetishes and smuts much more than adult only rps(mature themes that does not involve sex). If you're looking at something not related to smuts, perhaps the normal LFRP section might help.

Well I am looking for sexual themes, not mature themes.
Then there's nothing much I can do. It's up to the roleplayers. There's bound not to have much diversity.

while that is true it is upto the players, there is Diversity. Just some people are to shy about being open with people.

I would have to agree with Arkavious. Also, when it comes to sexual themed roleplays, I find it mostly goes on the whim of how the writer is feeling that day and that when it comes to being dominant or submissive, there are oceans of submissives and a small hidden island of decent dominant characters, which is unfortunate.
However, I will admit, I have seen you around and I always check Writer's Profiles if and when available. I would have approached you, but your requirements are what made me decide in not writing with you as I cannot fit your requirement of a reply once a day. Perhaps being more lax in your rules may help you in this endeavour, most especially when you are searching for a 'rare-breed' in the smut rp world.

I have killed off the once a day thing, have not bothered to change my profile. Think it's time I did that though.
Yes there is a lot of ads requesting smut which you generally have to expect. As for the whole submissive/dominant thing...eh... I don't care for it. Quite frankly I have no desire to play any of my characters as strictly either. A lot of my characters would spitfires in bed, but not dominant, basically they would make it clear what they wanted, but would have no desire to dominate their partners.
That being said, I tend to avoid looking at submissive characters because I believe it would be a poor match. Actually I am incredibly picky when it comes to characters, it's nothing personal, but it's just how I am. So I too have trouble finding new roleplays sometimes.
Also at one point, one of my characters was getting a disproportionate amount of attention which was compounded with the fact that she is one of my most difficult characters to play as. So I closed her off to rp for a while before slightly opening her up again, but only if something really caught my interest.
