Kitty Simone

“Ah?” Kitty finished pulling up their hood before noticing that water suddenly wasn’t hitting their clothes. They blinked in confusion for a second, until they slowly looked up to see a woman standing there. This seemed a little out of the blue, but Kitty knew better that to possibly complain.

Shit.....

“But come on, look at them!”

Tagging. If a blog has a hyphen, for example dear-indies, you’d drop it and put the words together so it would be dearindies. Always tag your replies and starters with the other roleplayer’s URL so they can find it easily.

Starter calls. Starter calls are a great way to start interactions. Most roleplayers make a “like for a starter post” which is pretty self explanatory, if a roleplayer liked the post then you’d make them a starter or if you like one of those posts then they’d make you a starter. Those posts can also say “starter call” and it’s the same thing.

Mutuals only. A starter might be tagged with mutuals only and that means the roleplayer only wants people who are following them and they follow back to reply, someone suggested the term a mutually following to help remember.

Read rules/guideline pages! Rules/guideline pages are there for a reason so please read them before interacting. If you’re unsure of what to put in yours then there’s a guide here you might find useful.

Plotting! Don’t ask a roleplayer if they’d like to plot and then expect them to think of an idea. It’s nice if you both contribute. Most people have a wishlist or a wishlist tag so if you’d like to message a roleplayer presenting them with something from there that’d be a great start.

You said that you’re new to Tumblr roleplaying but if you’re new to roleplaying I’d just like to highlight the following: Don’t control other characters. The first part of thetrolliestcritic’s guide has some really good definitions of god-modding, meta-gaming, and power-playing. The other part of their guide is about etiquette in group roleplays so that’s not applicable. Don’t pester for replies! Be considerate! Remember that roleplayers have lives. They might feel like only replying to certain threads or characters some days. There’s a line between asking people if they’ve replied yet and pestering so please keep that in mind. Don’t force ships! No one likes forced ships.

"I dunno-maybe ask for money or something? That’s usually my approach."
