I just wanted to hear from anyone who did a lot of literary roleplay and might not anymore just because other things got in the way. Where are you now, and if you did- why did you stop?
For me, the community kind of disappeared a while ago. I was on quotev a lot for 5-7 years.
I also haven’t written much since.

Same here. I was extremely active on AvidGamers and AcornRack back in the day, but when those sites both died I stopped roleplaying with it. Other forums and private messages weren't the same, and life was getting busier anyway. I yearn for the return of something similar these days and would love to get back into the swing of roleplaying and writing in general.

For me it was quotev. I would spend hours daily making characters. I tried tumblr but by then that community had all but died out or was filled with smut roleplayers which… is not for me 🫠

I had never heard of Quotev until this forum, and it appears to just be some sort of online quizzes and stories website now? That's a shame if it used to be a hub for roleplaying. And I remember people RPing on Tumblr, but I never tried it myself. It was too public for me haha.

it was really easy to make a bunch of accounts dedicated to specific characters which made it a perfect website to join large rpgs. i haven't seen anything else like it. you could also make personal unlimited journal entries which made it a utility knife of a website when it came to writing.
unfortunately they took a lot of the functionality away in the last few years for whatever reason. my guess is that a lot of bad apples took to the site.

That's a massive shame. There really is a market out there for a place dedicated to online roleplaying, and I hope someone recognizes this and fills the niche. AvidGamers and AcornRack was peak to me because you could basically create your own roleplaying website with a dedicated application, forums page, and sub pages. Users could apply to join with unique character accounts. I YEARN for something like that again.

i hope so too, i wish more people were active on tumblr because you can make branched accounts that act as dedicated blogs without needing to make another account entirely. unfortunately, no one is doing much. i have my fingers crossed that someone will come through because, at least for me, it was the best creative outlet i have ever had in my life.
