Avery Gray wrote: 8 Jul 2025, 18:47 The other Harry Potter RP website I’m on is so frustrating. I think I may just disappear from it like I did my other account because every time I write something or don’t even realize I need to do something, they owl me every week about it when I don’t have time to do it. They even threatened to ban me if I didn’t do anything. my character has “fainted” and I can’t do any of the changes anyway because of that and I have to pay IRL money to fix it.

Call me old fashioned, but that doesn't sound very "RP" of them. That sounds like simulation than an actual RP mechanic... If that makes sense?

I agree! It doesn’t even feel like an RP since you don’t actually post 200+ word RPs. It’s basically what I used to do which was just a sentence or two then someone responds.

Huh!

Makes me wonder where the Roleplay part comes in then...

Exactly! That’s why I only use it to contact people on here if the site’s down.

Fair!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

I finally finished Chapter 1 of the real Emily story!

Sorry about bothering you guys with this. I know my problem is pretty small compared to what you guys are going through, but it felt great to vent here since the other community isn’t very friendly.

Really? Yay! I’m thinking of writing Av’s as a real book I may publish someday by writing it as a different universe than Harry Potter!

Hewo!

Hiya Val and Nova!

Nova! And Av!

Hi Avery!
I might finally get to use a laptop for my RPs and I'm so excited!
