Forums » Smalltalk » Just Talkin' :)

Hey you! Yes you! We can't wait to meet you!

This is the RP repository's official OOC chat thread, where we all come to relax, chat, and make new friends in between all night gaming sessions.

To join this chat, just click that big button above this post that says "Launch chat."

You can transform any thread on the RPR into a real-time chat! However, we use this one for most of our non-specific OOC banter.

All the normal forum rules apply in this chat thread. And please, don't RP in this thread. We have IC forums for that.

This thread is cleaned out on the first of each month.

And so the great cleansing began. Now I am the only one left...

Also my aquarium substrate exploded, guys

and the previous talking points were plunged into darkness...

also, oh no! i hope it wasn't that hard to clean up?

It be like that

The monthly dump!
May March be better than the last couple months.

Nah it wasn't thankfully, but some of my aquarium plants got uprooted .

I'm starting a tradition, where you talk on this board on the first day of the month, and the whole month is good luck for all RP endeavors.

And I'm sorry about your aquarium.

Sorry about your aquarium, Revereen. Oh and, hello everybody!

I'm too old for inserting gifs, pretend there's a cute gif here of me waving at you.

Iunno, maybe it works for some people and not for others lol

I've only done it like three times in the past year so. 😆

Quiet around here.

It sadly has been for a long time

Too much RL worries to be all chatty and happy I'm guessing.

It could be, or that activity has been on a sharp decline either way

I mean I see people left and right leaving the site, which, if it works, it works.

It has been quiet, I just hope Kim is doing ok. But in terms of players; while it can feel concerning to see a lot of people leave the site, there are still new members every week so I try to not be too concerned. I think for the younger generation the look and feel of the site can be a bit alien, but I really wish it wont change because I love and thrive in these forums lol.

Hunh? I didn't understand any of that.


I give Kim thoughts and hope things are well. I will say that public activity may seemed to have slowed, but I haven't noticed any decline in private activity I'm involved with here. Having been here for a few years, there always seems to be a bit of cycling of activity.

Yeah I agree that it always seem to cycle. I will say more and more of my long term partners have just dropped off the earth recently which sucks, but I have also found new ones that I hope will stick around so its just a bit of life happening, I think. Maybe not so much the site causing people to leave but just other things taking priority.

I get this. I had a couple people who I had been writing with regularly for a couple years drop off the site (lined out) in early November, and a couple more who have simply quit being active (their accounts are still here). I myself stepped back last year, and should there ever come a time where I can't continue to participate on RPR, I'll just let my account go dormant. Deleting the account and wiping out the characters in stories seems too harsh to me.
