Critter communities definitely are not thriving unless you're talking about the fringe original character places that write their abo and supernatural smut. All the fandom communities do about as much writing as pb. There are people who collect 50 characters in a game and the most they'll ever do is comment a few times at the end/start of a month to make activity. That's not thriving it's fucking pointless. There are just as many mean bitches on that side. In fact there are a few who seem to have made the jump to pb, as well. There's still rampant main characters, entitled elitists who will drag everyone ooc over every detail, blatant favoritism and cliques, bullying, racism and white savioring up the ass, my friend. Know what the critter communities don't have? Anons. That's it. That's the difference.

Tess pulls money because she has friends who support her and she works hard. Or there's a bunch of people who forgot they're subscribed on Patreon, idk.

Can confirm about Critter Coms, a friend of mine got back in to writing after fifteen years of being away, and wanted to go in to Pan Fandom and oh boy, I get to hear the stories.

Anon I hope your friend doesn't invest too much bandwidth, it's very hopeless. They would have more luck finding a ship they like and asking for psls, or trying to start a writing but pan fandom based gpsl with friends.

Not OP but hey anon, you probably don't know this because I learned it recently myself but please call it a/b/o if you're going to talk about it since without the slashes it's a a slur. Just a heads up!

Thank you so much for the education instead of damnation, Anon! I truly had no idea as that sub genre of game has never been an interest of mine.

This is so true. There's a reason that DWRP thinks we're the panfandom IJers and dislike us on sight and it's because that corner of IJ is batshit in the same but slightly different way than Anon RP. The only difference is that non-anon RP spaces aren't anonymous so all of it is done with names attached but if Anon RP used names it'd be the same level of unhinged because all of IJ is awful. Yes, I'm including "nice" anons in here too because most of you RP in here as being nice but you're actually the assholes, too.

[(Anonymous)]

DWRP dislikes you just as much because RPing real people is considered the absolute bottom of the barrel. Don't think you're seen as any less batshit.

I RP both places so I'm well aware, Anon.

[(Anonymous)]

I disagree, Anon, in that I think both sides of IJ are equally unhinged. I've met some really, REALLY volatile writers in anon RP that I wish to never cross again. And they get by because of the anonymity. Most think they hide themselves pretty well but us neurodivergent folks pick up their writing patterns, remember off the cuff comments about pop culture that they reuse, preferences for line dynamics, etc. I think anon RP would benefit from being held accountable and maybe it would stop the constant cycle of new comm every couple weeks, but then those problematic unhinged folks wouldn't be able to sow their discord so they can feel marginally better about their sad lives.

I think I didn't express what I was trying to say clearly since we don't disagree at all. I agree with all of this since I was attempting to voice it and failed. All of IJ is terrible.

Sorry if my reply was snippy at all! I promise there was no intent behind it. And it really is, I wish I didn't have to be in here at all, but..
