#im getting flashbacks

The horrors I’ve experienced on kpop roleplay wattpad. Yes, this was a very formative time in my livelihood, and while I’m an adult now… I’m sure you understand what follows, as far as memories.

Still back then I was praised for my scenarios, sooo…

I, at one point, probably had at least nine roleplay accounts, that I never remembered the logins to.

Do you guys know the BTS mafia aus? I guess I’ve come full circle, but instead of insanely rich twinks who just vaguely violence people, it’s old men living in an abandoned factory.

I’d… CONSIDER it, just know my past. God, beyond the parasocial relationships of kpop fans in general, i remember “ulzzangs”, where they were “faceclaims” and it was just. Fucking. Taking someone’s photos without permission and roleplaying smut. I am not proud of that, even if I was like… a teen doing that.

I saw someone post this on here and tumblr was less believing of it than tiktok, but I need to get this off my chest. No hate to the people who posted this, but there are a disturbing amount of people BELIEVING THIS. So, heres everything wrong with this script😭

1. Mike/Will scene 6 - That’s not how that works. At all. In any script writing format. This tells the crew absolutely nothing. Screenplay scene breaks include the following: EXT/INT (inside or outside), the name of the location, and the time. In no official scripts do they name or number scenes. It’s also not capitalized correctly or bolded.

2. Dialogue Tags - In screenplays, the name of the speaker goes ABOVE their dialogue. It’s also very specifically indented. There’s also never quotation marks in scripts like that. Scripts are dialogue heavy and already have notations that indicate dialogue. Quotation marks are redundant and only used when the character themselves is quoting someone else. Also there would never be a “he said” after a dialogue. Also redundant.

2.1. The Colons on Dialogue Tags - Even in stage plays those are unnecessary.

2.2 The Lack of CONT’D - When a character speaks multiple times in a row, every tag after the first gets a (CONT’D) slapped at the end of it. This doesn’t have that.

3. The Typos - Improper capitalization everywhere.

4. The Colors - There’s no reason for text to be colored differently.

This is a mix of a stageplay, screenplay, and a narratives format. If any writer submitted this to the Duffers, they’d be fired. It’s the equivalent of submitting an MLA essay without MLA format.

But don’t take my word for it. Take the real, official scripts we got after scriptgate’s word for it instead:
