I do complain about Cherami a lot, but it's because I care a lot about the site and its culture. I arrived shortly after Cherubplay opened -- like, k think it was winter of 2015 or 2016, and it was so tiny. So small the front page didn't even auto-collapse prompts -- so small we still *had* a front page.
And I've been here since then. Sometimes I take a break for a few months, sometimes longer than that, but I always come back. I went through Cherubplay, Cherp, Cherami -- and like. I'm not invested in the behind the scenes drama. I know basically enough to keep me on my feet -- the mods of each name change are different enough, there's shit going on, it's whatever.
But man, I was probably 16-18 when this site came online. It's been a decade since then, and I've made friends. My best friend came from this website, and I'm still making friends. When the site goes down without warning, or hinky stuff happens, I'm frustrated because it interrupts my social life and my friendships.
I know this tag is kind of dead so I've been monopolising it lately, but like. I don't hate the website. I just want it to be functional, and when there's no communication, it's...bad. Frustrating. Nerve-wracking.
(It also makes me look like an idiot because I had recommended Cherami to a friend a week ago and they came into my DMs asking if the website was still active. And that's how I found out Cherami was down last week and it wasn't just my internet.)
i know it's a little thing, but yeah, i absolutely hate how the pages are divided on cherami when you exceed one page. i don't even know why you'd ever want it the current way, other than maybe limiting how much needs to load or be scrolled past? it's incredibly frustrating to have to keep switching pages when working on a response to check stuff just a few responses back, or just to read the last response.
I've got nothing wrong with the pagination really, but I do think it's a very good idea to have the live page at minimum like ten posts back, maybe more (to consider a lot of ooc chatter, though the 'hide ooc' option is also good for that anyway)
Another thing I've noticed that I think is much more important is that when I look at my prompts, I always lose one between pages. I've been paying attention now that I've noticed and there's always one that isn't visible until I bump a prompt from an older page and it pushes it back out at the cost of the prompt on the bottom of the page before. I can still find the prompt if I like. Go to a tag I used for it, or hide tags to make older prompts load on the first page, but I've got a bad memory as is and I'm unfortunately very 'out of sight, out of mind' most of the time.
the thing is, I think this may have been a thing even before they dropped the amount to 10 instead of the 20 (or 25, can't remember) it was before, because I made a couple tickets in the past due to not being able to find a prompt of mine using the page for it. They found it, confirming I hadn't accidentally deleted it or anything, and I just bumped it and kept on with what I was doing. But now that the pages are shorter, more prompts are getting hidden between them and it's a lot more noticeable.
I don't think it affects the chats I currently have as far as I can tell since they have set numbers to their pages, but since the directory works the same way, I have to wonder if there are starters up that are just unfortunately getting hidden between pages before getting pushed out when a new one comes in, but by that point it's on a new page and less likely to be seen.
replied to a chat that had been waiting a hot minute for me, and then sent an ooc message that pushed the chat to the next page, and after a few weeks they disconnected and i have to sit here and wonder if maybe they thought i just sent a random ooc message and not an actual reply and that's why they might have dipped since they might not have thought to go back a page to check

Goodbye, old friend.
Looks like Cherubplay's finally gone for good.
Throwing a bad gateway and has for a day or so now. Everyone pour one out for a real one, and all the RPs we had over the years there. I hope y'all nabbed your logs with the provided feature those years ago so you can still enjoy em.
Man I'm bent, I had this really good VrisRadia thing going there, aw man. Its like a decade old by now but it was SOOOOOOOO good.
Here's to being the GOAT, cherubplay. Rest well.
love whenever I get a connect to an NAP and because my partner has 0 ideas of their own getting them to say literally anything even slightly original is like pulling teeth. And by love I mean i am two steps away from throwing my phone out an open window
I miss Cherubplay
I really wish we could get Cherubplay back. Not a shitty, sorry imitation of the site like CheRP (fuck that place), but a genuine successor that didn't have such poorly made rules, and also preserved the usual "front page" where all the prompts were posted. It was wild, but it was genuinely fun. If anyone knows of any website of today that's actually like Cherubplay, I'd love to hear about it.
