Any good places for nonsexual/story RP?
9 years ago
This is something that has been frustrating me for a very long time, that I don't see any solutions for. Back when I had just started roleplaying back in 2008 I got to do all sorts of story roleplays and people included me in things.
Then, that suddenly stopped. For whatever reason, for the past 7 years or so people only want to do sexual, story-less roleplay and nothing else, or with the story only serving to lead into fetish-based play. Usually I'm pretty good at dealing with it, but it's really been bothering me lately and especially with some people making flimsy excuses and continually disappearing at convenient-for-them times I'm starting to really feel used. I have a whole bunch of thought put into my character and her world and I never get to use any of it, because all people want Nova to do is transform them and that's it.
I've looked all over the place, on AnthroChat channels, FurNet channels, a MUCK, F-Chat, and the problem persists. No one is interested in starting anything with me and helping me learn. I don't know if I'm somehow looking in the wrong places, or if I'm putting people off somehow, or if people just only want to play with people that already have a firm grasp on what they're doing. To me it feels like the situation people complain about in job searching, where all the companies that are hiring want experience but you can't get experience without a job.
The MUCK seems to be open with roleplays, but it's very focused on science fiction, which doesn't interest me at all, and I only get ignored when I try to contribute anyway.
Anything I've tried to start myself just ends up dying, and when I try to join in on something that's already going I either get ignored or everyone drops out of whatever's going on. Anyone else with a similar amount of character development says no when I ask. It hurts that all I seem to be good for is helping people fap.
Can anyone help me?

I guess I just should make my own room, but still would need people to populate it with.
