League of Legends Role-play Confessions

This blog has been going in and out of activity for a while and with only one moderator currently working on it, I think it's time to close it. It might be temporary, it might be forever, but nobody knows. Sorry to those who submitted but never had their confessions posted!

"All these confessions about people joining in the League RP community and finding the experience wonderful conflict me. While I'm happy that the RP community is being awesome but at the same time, I'm saddened because I have yet to experience anything like that at all. I'm still holding on to a sliver of hope after a year. Someone already told me that maybe League RP is just not for me. And I suppose they are right. Maybe it is time for me to stop waiting and go look someplace else to belong."

"I’ve only been in the League of Legends community for a few months, and about two weeks on this blog specifically, but I’ve come to like the roleplaying community despite all its cons. I’ve met some amazing friends here, and I hope I’ll meet more in the future."

"I used to be really nervous about talking to new people in the community. Which was silly because everyone was new to me, so I just didn't talk and just went and drew silly things. I don't know when this changed, because now I have no problem with tracking down people I want to talk to and shoot them a message and ask for their skype. I think with this kind of openness comes happiness, and I wish everyone who holds back would learn not to and embrace the nice feelings that follow."

"I feel like when I write starters, nobody seems to be interested. I try to keep them interesting, a bit lengthy but I barely get a few replies. I can understand that ‘hey, I don’t always reply because I have multiple blogs’ or life gets in the way (I.E. for me, work). I hate reblogging them for attention, too. But it makes me really wonder: Am I portraying my character properly? Are they too out-of-character? Or simply too dark? Do other RPers not like it? I wouldn’t know, but it’s discouraging at times. Guess reblogging prompts will have to do best. Even then, I barely get a peep from others."

"Yeah, I play favorites when it comes to who I want to interact with. 

And I don’t care. I kind of like having standards."

"Being new to the scene looks a lot like job hunting. You send countless asks and starters, sometimes getting to write a paragraph or two, and then nothing. Finding that one thread that just keeps going or a partner who's actually interested, those are tough cookies to eat."

"Some people are so aggressive about some ships. It makes me feel bad for shipping the mainstream ships whenever I see hate posts about Trynd/Ashe or Garen/Kat... I'm afraid to want to ship with a Garen because of it."

"I’ve noticed some people role-play certain Champions as a joke just because of how the character is seen as in-game. These Champions are completely different from how these people portray them; Singed is not some troll, Teemo is not some evil hell-spawn, and so on. It pains me to see people role-play these Champions as a joke."

"The League of Legends Role-playing Community is so awesome! I meet new people every day and find new ways to experiment with my many muses. I appreciate everyone always being so nice and I couldn’t have asked for something better."

"Though I’m considered a “popular” blog, I send myself praise on anon to make myself look even more important than I really am.

I don’t know if this is good or bad. It’s better than sending yourself anon hate for attention though right?"

"I feel like I miss out on so much on tumblr because I have to work 90% of the time."

"I wish it were easier to say “No” to people wanting to RP when I offer to do so with others in a public post. The community makes me feel like if I dislike certain characters, OC or not, or don’t want to RP with every single person that asks, then I’m stuck up or elitist. Is it really that bad to have preferences? ;_;"

"I don't roleplay a character from League Of Legends but I follow a lot of character blogs and I try to catch up on threads that intrigue me everyday. A lot of what you guys write is better than most fan fiction I've seen! To be honest I kind of want to join in on the fun (I have a long history of forum and skype roleplay) but I have no idea which character I'd want to play. It seems like most of my favorite characters are already "taken" and I don't want to seem like a copycat ^_^;;"

"Personally I’m actually not a big fan of the “follow for follow” system. If I follow someone, it’s because I want to see their content on my dashboard. If I see they follow me a few seconds or even a few minutes afterwards, it feels cheap. I understand that it is considered a nice and ‘friendly’ thing to do, but it still irks me. I’d like to think that someone actually goes through the basic information about my blog at the very least, and is interested enough to follow because they too want to see my content."

That being said, confessions that concern the community as a whole/are very vague and general will be allowed. It is because with those sort of confessions, it is hard for us to tell if they are directed towards anyone or not. If you see these go through and feel attacked by them, we apologize.

While I know that the confessions will not all be positive as we would ideally like them to be, it is important to remember that we do not mean harm by posting confessions that pertain to opinions and or controversial topics regarding this community. We do not intend to harness negativity. Allowing role-players to share their opinion anonymously or not is what we are here to do.

Generally, we want all confessions to be positive, but that won't happen. Still, please try to be pleasant and find something nice to say. There are confessions that have generated positive feedback and for those, I would like to give my thanks.

Lastly, I would also like to remind everyone that if you are ever feeling the need to let out anger, please feel free to redirect any negativity here or to our role-play blogs (explaining what you are doing, of course): moonsilverheretic and enforcedviolence. While we will not post hateful comments, we are more than happy to be there to talk to and to listen when you need to let off steam.

Thank you, and may you continue to submit confessions to this blog!
