daily role play deinfluencing
people are not supposed to be online all the time, breaks are okay
changing communication does not mean anyone hates you
it's perfectly normal to not have icons or graphics in role play
not everyone has to have a theme
just because someone else writes the character it doesn't mean that you can't
having a google docs, carrd, canva etc. is not the norm
you don't need to use any specific language, write as you want
just because something is popular in a community it doesn't make it canon
you can write a character perfectly fine without about pages
just because someone doesn't like the way you write something they don't hate you
you do not need to consume the newest media to be "on top"
... and that is the tip of the ice berg in regards to role playing. there are a lot of standards/expectations set throughout role play and they come and go as they see fit. in these times, it's important to remind yourself that there are so many things that are in fact normal.
