Hey, just to letcha know! While pressing ctrl+z twice won't undo the undo here on tumblr, and while ctrl+y can work sometimes (sometimes it doesn't!) -- on the off chance that Y doesn't, you can press ctrl+shift+z and that will often work as an alternate redo function âĄ

Have  you  ever  logged  on  wanting  to  do  something,  the  muse  is  there  (or  maybe  you're  looking  for  a  bit  of  nudge  to  get  going)  but  you  don't  know  where  to  start?  And  instead  of  starting  in  one  area,  you  just  sit  and  stare  at  your  drafts  and  askbox  and  unanswered  messages?  Most  of  us  have  probably  been  there  and  it  gets  frustrating  not  knowing  where  to  start,  then  it  becomes  overwhelming  because  nothing  is  getting  done.
Try  this  PICKER  WHEEL.  You  fill  in  options,  click  spin,  and  the  generator  chooses  for  you.  If  you're  not  feeling  the  option  given,  no  harm  or  foul!  It's  merely  a  means  to  help  you  decide  on  where  to  start  and  not  overwhelm  yourself.
I'm so happy to have your blog on my dash it has shown me that I'm not the only one struggling in the rpc. I feel like the rpc has fallen into a coma, people are so wrapped up in their own bubbles that they don't interact with each other anymore (it seems) like I'm so frustrated with tumblr at this point, I'm so sorry I just don't know what to do, it's really disheartening to have like 1k followers, writing an rp blog but no matter what you do, no one sends anything at all, no asks, no memes, no starters, nothing, it makes me sad and wonder if I have done something wrong? I checked the settings twice as to make sure asks are enabled and I try to regularly send the people on my dash things but now I'm questioning myself. Like why and how are so many people following me if it feels like they don't want to interact? Of course I know many of these are lurkers but not all? I'm so confused by this to be honest...
My Question is: Am I the only one who feels like that?
my lovely friend, let me tell you something. these feelings youâre having? we ALL have them at some point in our tumblr lives. itâs perfectly natural, thereâs nothing wrong with them, much less with you for having them in the first place. you understand? i want to make that much clear before i continue, because iâm getting the impression that you might be trying to take on the blame and responsibility for other peopleâs actions, and thatâs not close to being accurate, love, okay? youâre doing just fine! and now iâm going to go into a little detail on your message. but i donât want you to read on unless youâre feeling solid and good about yourself again, because try as we might, weâre not responsible for other people. and you mentioned that youâre very active in your efforts to make people feel comfortable, so no. donât go blaming yourself. youâre doing nothing wrong, my love, i promise.
NOW! i say as i slap my hands on my knees like a suburban dad in an american film! except not, bc my laptopâs there, but i digress. before i continue, i want to say that iâm only one person, my suggestions may not be applicable to you. if anyone reads this post, and would like to contribute their own suggestions, youâre all welcome to hop into the comments to help our lovely friend out! this is a sideblog, however, and i will not be able to interact with these comments directly!
the first thing that iâm going to say here is that 1,000 followers is a LOT of people. like thatâs overwhelming to anyone, but i feel like it could also contribute to these feelings of isolation when you have a thousand people following you and nobodyâs really reaching out. thatâs why i would suggest that maybe you might feel better if you try and bring that number down? itâs like this; if you host a big party, realistically speaking, you wonât be able to invite a thousand guests. itâll be next to impossible to have these intimate personal connections with one thousand individual people, right? but if we try, say, 500 people? instantly easier to handle, i think. personally i try to keep my own limit at 150 mutuals, because iâm oftentimes too tired and too stressed to handle the idea of much more than that, and itâs much fairer to 150 people than it is for 1000 people. plus, those 150 people are far more likely to have solid friendships with me. iâm only one person, and so are you, and we canât be pressuring ourselves into trying to interact with 1000 people!
in your case, this also applies. 1000 people is a LOT. if you bring the number down, perhaps then you can explain to people that you will be implementing a few changes in the way you do things. you want to plot with people. you want to develop solid relationships both OOC and IC. you also might find it useful to use an interest tracker or a permanent starter and plotting call, or a few open starters are also useful!Â
iâm going to repeat something here. you are not responsible for other peopleâs actions. there are parts of the rpc that are withdrawing from the core purpose and values of the community, and the lack of interaction is a widespread challenge. itâs not their fault. itâs just something thatâs happening. that being said, you can only control YOUR experience. which sounds powerless, but itâs actually entirely the opposite!
you can make that post and say what you expect to change in your blog. âiâll be much more active in the rpc from now on, iâm here to make friends and write with like-minded people, and iâm going to be cleaning out my followers over the coming week. if you want to stay mutuals, please let me know, but i donât want to stay mutuals unless we intend on building a solid friendship and writing together!â
you can obviously change the wording! be as nice or as blunt as you like! but try to be firm. your experiences of the dash are yours and yours alone. my suggestions might be worth nothing to you, and thatâs more than okay too! but my earlier experience in the community was very much like yours in that i had about 500 mutuals, but it was so quiet and awkward that i may as well have had 0. it only changed when i brought the number down to 150, keeping my mutuals as people who i wanted to write with and befriend, and then posted a quick psa to let people know that i was planning on actually writing much more in the future, and i would be changing certain things in my blog to accommodate that.
you donât have to do any of this, my love. you donât have to soft block any followers, you donât have to make a psa, you donât have to do anything! my decisions came from a place when i was so frustrated by being stuck in the ânothingnessâ, or the âmeh, idk, i donât mind, idcâ phase of the community, that i just decided to shift gears and change things. the way i see it, i could have 20,000 mute, withdrawn mutuals, but just one person who i genuinely loved to chat to and plot with and write with would outshine the lot of them! fortunately i found much more than just one person, though. and i know, i KNOW, you will too.

Dude, you don't undo a ctrl Z by hitting ctrl z again, that just undoes more things further. You undo a ctrl z by pressing ctrl y. Ctrl Y is the redo button.
while this is super helpful information to know in the future, i really feel like i should highlight that it's a really understandable thought process to think that ctrl z would undo an undo! there's nothing silly or foolish about making that assumption! i once went through years of college before i realized that "double spaced" didn't mean "two spaces between each word"! i also spent an alarming portion of my life believing that if i deleted an email from my sent folder, it would actually delete it from the recipient's folder too!
computers are very confusing, but this is invaluable information!
CTRL + Y is a redo feature, CTRL + Z is an undo feature!
I would like to let people know about Grammarly as it proofreads what you type as you type it! It's definitely improved my writing tenfold! :D
i love this suggestion so much!! grammarly was a hero during college and secondary school, so i have exactly zero doubts as to the value it'll serve to the rpc!
