{memes} 30 Days About Me - Day 2: Something you feel strongly about
Day 2 :: Something you feel strongly about
There are a lot of things I feel strongly about. Today's topic of choice is unnecessary drama. I will admit that I used to be a real drama queen when I was younger. Because I thought it was the only way I could get anyone to pay any attention to me, thanks to how I was raised. I'll be honest and say that I was probably in my early 30s before it truly sunk in that I didn't need to do that sort of thing if I wanted or needed attention from someone. A lot of my interpersonal skills were kind of fucked up until I hit my 30s. *shrugs*
Anyway, I do a LOT of RP over on Twitter. I freely admit it. Far too much, to be perfectly honest, but it's a creative outlet and a diversion. Most of the time. But JFC there is a metric fuckton of drama in and around RP over there, both IC and OOC. Hell, a lot of the time, OOC drama is brought into IC stuff. It's ridiculous. Then again, the vast majority of RPers seem to be about 12-15yo, so...
But the sheer amounts of unnecessary drama and flouncing that go on over there are insane! They oftentimes make me wish I'd never started RPing on Twitter in the first place. I've been bullied rather violently via my primary RP acct's Ask.fm account by a VERY "popular" RP troll last October. Like she and her partner were threatening to hurt me via my character, then described in great detail how they'd either stab or repeatedly kick said character in the stomach to force her to miscarry her unborn children. And that's just part of what was done to me/my character. That doesn't even scratch the surface of what was done to friends of mine.
That kind of drama kills me....
I'm not entirely sure this post has fulfilled the topic for today, but there you go...
