I feel it's like the same small group/people who keep dropping her name here. Name dropping someone isn't going to help them not be flakey only make them worse. tbh usually her friends talk her into apping and she gets talked into apping things easily because she wants to rp with her friends. It's not her friends fault, but hers in the end still.

There are plenty of other flakes in games she's in and in c&c so why does she keep getting named dropped here?

she plays 2 characters at soul campaign.

TWO.

lots of other flaky people get name dropped. she just happens to be in like six games with multiple characters in each one and then she makes excuses about how her life is busy or classes are hard or some bullshit like that and i have no sympathy for that. if you're having a hard time then fucking drop some of your characters or play in one of those small and slow games where it's acceptable to disappear.

she can make excuses about it being the past few months all she wants, as far as i can tell she's ALWAYS been like this.

You sound mad.

It's rp, and you should try not to take it so seriously and stop being the rp police. You don't need to have sympathy or whatever just don't tag her and ignore her if you can. If you're a castmate? Yeah, you have a right to tell her personally but this isn't helping anything. It sounds like you want something done, right? This situation requires more than you sitting on your anon ass and rage typing. You will probably have to go to the mods or grow a pair and talk to her if you want her to really make a change for the better. Why? Because her friends aren't going to do it, so you take responsibility for it if you are this worked up over it.

it isn't my job to tell her to reply to things she's responded to. she apped to a game and by doing so it becomes her 'job' to reply to things and stay on them if she does, not mine. i shouldn't have to come to her to tell her to tag a post that she made or a thread she started.

expecting me to approach someone and let them know they're being a lazy, selfish asshole and i'm sick of waiting to be tagged or having threads dropped is not equivalent to growing balls. if she did this every now and then or didn't have a ton of characters i would be cool with asking her to continue a thread. with how she plays? it's narcissistic of her to expect me to do even more work when she can't even respond to things that she's started.

okay, let the cycle continue and complaining hoping things will change AKA the passive way to failure.

i'm not forcing you and saying it's 100% your job, just suggesting if you really wanted to change things that's what you would have to do. it seems like you don't want the responsibility, and i don't blame you.

i can get easy cr where i don't have to badger someone into tagging me from just about anyone in the game. i might like her most of the time and like her characters, but it isn't worth the effort. knowing that she's aware of this problem, has addressed it before, and has apped/dropped and whatever else doesn't make me inclined to try to work this out.

i want to app into her cast since i she seems to put forth a lot of effort into her characterization and remaining ic and fresh, but i don't think i could handle dealing with the way she plays as a castmate. this isn't a small problem. she's not in two or three games with a handful of characters. i don't feel comfortable iming her and telling her that i'm not going to tag her unless she works harder at keeping the pace up.

i'm not against slow tagging or back-tagging and sc in general is pretty backtag friendly, but that kindness is only afforded to people who are busy with other things, not busy with playing a million characters all at the same slow pace. her problem could be fixed by dropping a few games and a character or three at each one.

tbh, contacting her is probably the best way to go about this. you don't have to do it signed in, but if you get one of her journals that are anon enabled and vent there, it's just as good as iming her or contacting her. at the moment, she's sort of freaking out on who to drop and where because of the problem.

it's a valid one and you sound like you do want to play with her, but she kinda needs to know this stuff.

Has she been namedropped before? This is the first time I've seen anyone mention her by name.

Re: SETINE

I think I saw her mentioned on the last hate meme too.

I don't have anything against her, I think she's a nice person. But her abysmally slow tagging reputation is definitely the truth, so even as a slow player myself I avoid CR with her.
