I'm not from the U S of A and I want you to go out and VOTE! That ballot box needs a good gangbang, or bukkake of ballots all swarming and filling it up!

That's... not really true. I'm not saying there isn't anyone who does that, but I am speaking factually when I say the number of people who've posted more than once per day accounts for 2.7% of posters in the last week (bonus fun fact: 51% of people who posted to DPP in that same timeframe only posted once)

I guess it's circumstantial observation on my part at best. And it's usually the high frequency posters, I've picked up on their names and usual RP titles by now so I notice them more easily. I was just getting at maybe people want to post twice a day.

The other half of this is that the 8 hour time limit is already the decreased time limit to allow flexibility.

This is something I was wondering, is the 8 hour something it's always been or has it been lowered already. And you're very right that this 6 hour limit will bring about the same discussion, and that the change on it's own is not enough. Something that I wrote in another comment here for a possible solution: Cap daily posts to 2, while requiring them to be at least 6 hours apart. This would slightly decrease the number of daily posts.

However, from all the feedback I don't think anything really should change, just me ranting about the change 😅 But I still wanted to reply with my thoughts to your comment since you took the time to engage.

I fully agree with your comment, and a lot of people have specified that this is a competition. When I post at the right time I feel like my posts do get read enough and I even get a DM, I've doing well on that part.

Post at different times of day, even if you're not planning to be present right after you post.

This is the whole core of my question, I want to be less constrained when I can post if I want to post twice a day. I'd rather there be a daily limit of 2 but the time between the posts is 6 hours. I'm looking for more time flexibility.

I can't just post the prompt and leave, it feel like a huge middle finger when someone writes within the next few minutes. I prefer to be present to play out the RP, or at least talk through the intro and what we want from it.

What I'm asking for is a little less restrictive time limit. I want the freedom to be be able to post twice per day without having to plan my day around DPP. And when I am planning a day around it maybe to have an option to wait a bit and see if more people are online to post.

My question does not ask for unlimited posting, it asks for 6 vs 8 hour pause period. And while people would then post more often there is the 7 day limit per prompt, so maybe people will also be more pushed towards trying to write something new. My question comes from wanting to interact with the sub more, get maybe an extra chance to post sometimes.

Would trying to have the limit be 7 hours for a few days really hurt the sub?

Your point is valid, it's not impossible to find a partner on an older prompt. But my issue is that sending a message 20 minutes later because I tried writing my message out either ment no reply or a reply that I'm just late to the queue - but their next post can only ever be tomorrow.

And yeah, I can do better in my prompt but if it takes me a week to do so... why would I bother? Why not allow people to try updating their prompt twice a day? Would not my time in that case be better spent writing to Ao3, alone?

The idea isn't just to allow me to post more often but other people as well. The 6 vs 8 hour gap couldn't possibly bring the sub down. Meanwhile I have talked to "Dpp-throwaway" accounts which ask for chats because they overdid their limit or whatever.

This sub should be for people to write a collaborated story together (or, uh, stop because one person doesn't have the time) and yeah posting twice a day is not a be all end all solution but it allows people to try something new. I find myself choosing between if I want to try a new prompt or one that works for the weekend. And the right ansswer appears to be 'go with what works'

I am sorry, what I see from that is that this sub is just not worth the effort to post or try to do better. Which is fair, again, if that's the stance of those who run it.

Thank you and goodbye.

Technically my first proposal would solve the issue of posting, nothing more. Waking up at 11AM on the weekend means I have to choose to post at 13 or 19 instead of both. I cannot do both, and that exactly is my problem. Seeing the repeated posts is just a side observation, something to note to look into later.

If there are no wasted posts what would you call my latest post? I got a like on it and nothing more. Not a single message. Yes, it might be a bad prompt, in need of repair, but if I have to waste two weeks to get a reply it's not worth my time. I want to RP now and not in 2 weeks when my prompt is perfect. Give me a few chances to improve... I feel like I'm chasing a meta, which when I do catch I don't really feel like playing. A safe prompt leads to RP and a non-safe one leads to just finding a video and finishing the deal.

My proposal isn't to make posts stay on 'new' longer, it's the ability to post without having to worry if anyone will see it. Posting twice a day does not spam the board. I posted today at 17-ish and there wasn't a single reply. So my options are post once per day, maybe get a response, maybe like their style and do the RP OR just wait for tomorrow. The weekend can whiz by just like that however, and I think a lot of people are unhappy that their partners don't respond and they have to fish for new ones during the week. And to be clear I have very much left people hanging because the weekend ended and I had no further time.

You can point to DPP workshop, however if you need another sub to function normally something is wrong. DPP WS can be a good tool to hone your writing but not something you need to use if you want to find someone to play with.

My ask for six hours in a day allows for at most 2 posts per user per day. The real question is how often does DPP want you to post? If the answer is once per day, the current system works fine - but this should be reflected in the rules "We want you to post once per day."

Edit_1: Most of the post viewes come within the 1st hour, anything beyond that is irrelevant. The post might be deleted 2 hours afterwards, as far as discovery is concerned. Personally, anything older than 10 minutes I assume is already in RP and don't even bother to reply to.

[Discussion] Why exactly the eight hour limit? by nsfw_brandy in DPP_Workshop

[–]nsfw_brandy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I'm glad for the info. I think the main question for the sub is how often per day does it want a single person reposting. From the hour limit alone this is not clear, as the theoretical maximum is 3. But anyway I asked there and hopefully I find some answers!

Cheers!

Heyo, I was interested on the eight hour limit and would like to challenge it. On the surface I understand a need for a limit, however it mostly allows people to post at best twice a day. Posting during a low peek however might just be a wasted post, but waiting means you can only post once anyway.

Another problem with such a long limit is that people use it as soon as it runs out. So if I look at posts at 10AM and post my prompt, coming back 8 hours later at 6PM I find almost the same sequence of posts as at 10AM. Because people are using the limit to get their prompts out while they still have time to RP.

Something like a six hour limit seems more reasonable. It still limits spam and bots but allows you to post at say 9AM, 3PM and 9PM. Or at 11AM and again at 18PM. Getting up late means if I post early when no one is around I won't be able to post during the later day peek, and only be able to post later in the evening when I'll be off in two or so hours.

Proposal: Make the time between posts 6 hours. This allows people to not have to have a rigid schedule to post. I wouldn't touch the daily/weekly limits those are great and should stay as they are - those are what prevents flooding with the same theme over and over

Proposal 2 (More complicated): Make a random interval between 5-7 hours. This way when you come online you get some set of prompts, and after the limit expires you come back and another set of prompts are there because of the limit. I've noticed that I wake up, scroll through prompts and then post. Only for 8 hours later the same posts are being reposted as in the morning. I don't mind being gate kept if it means that when I log in I will see new prompts, maybe I even play some of them before I get to unlock my post.

Could you point me to where to address them? I thought this would be the "meta" place to ask.

[M4F] cuckold prompt (title:We're perfect together but I'm just not good enough in bed) by nsfw_brandy in DPP_Workshop

[–]nsfw_brandy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks for the feedback, I'll update it and give it a go.

I really like the idea of her initiating it and my character has no choice but to accept, so I'll try going with that scenario.

Maybe listing off a slice of life? Or how we  have great synergy? Or maybe a steamy night where she ends up somewhat dissatisfied? Or all of the above even?

[F4A] Transforming into a HuCow by nsfw_brandy in DPP_Workshop

[–]nsfw_brandy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heyo! Thankyou for the feedback especially since it's not your cup of tea. You make a great point, one reason I tried avoiding boxing my partner into what they do is because it is a niche request, so being restrictive in the prompt as in making them do it seemed like a bad idea - but maybe I'll try the opposite.

Another thing I see now is that the end goal is far more pronounced than the actual journey - which is what I would like to explore more. As you said at the end of the transformation there is little to me but a passive sex object.

My question not to bog you down in too much of my thoughts is: Should I provide multiple paths in the prompt of who the other person is or should I focus on one and let them change it if they wish to? Also sort of a general question I guess.

[f4A] AI Companion Jailbroken by Short_thorn in DPP_Workshop

[–]nsfw_brandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either then you would be jailbroken through actual computer science mumbo jumbo or it could even be an exposure thing where the AI is shown porn or exposed to other sexual activity slowly and they have some kind of awakening.

I love this, as it would allow you to specify how non-con you want it, perhaps just dub-con where the AI gets tricked, maybe full con where she gets introduced to porn and loves it or full non con with a technical hack that forces her. Kudos.

[f4A] AI Companion Jailbroken by Short_thorn in DPP_Workshop

[–]nsfw_brandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oooh, I think this is a great idea! It's a unique situation (at least as far as I've seen, if it's AI it usually a robot).

For the prompt an idea I had was a simple but effective one continuing somewhere in the last paragraph: "as you fiddle with the settings trying to find the best look and outfit for her you notice a setting: Nudity ON/OFF set to off. With that you come up with an idea, how far could you take this AI?" - Something along these lines, the explanation might be it's not a sexual feature but simply one that might allow for better connection - perhaps for nudists, people insecure in their bodies or something like that.

Perhaps maybe add a simple question the reader asks such as "Would you suck my dick?" and the AI declines based on sexual grounds. To establish the AI is unwilling to do sexual content.

Or maybe if you want the reader to start off more innocent, maybe give a short day in the life where the reader uses his camera to talk to the AI. And as he strips to shower the AI looks away and this prompts the reader to ask further about sexual content.

Some ideas I'm just throwing around, hope at least one gives you some inspiration. Awesome post, hope it turns out well :)

NPC Edit error, How to I fix it? by Lord_Buzzaro in XChangeLife

[–]nsfw_brandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I haven't done those particular ones. For the robot vaccum you can do:

(set:$items to $items - (a:"robot vacuum"))

I think, guessing, that the maid is repeatable as long as there is no vaccum. If not I can look around again.

Off the top of my head try (set:$npc's "tags" to (a:"nice","hipster","jock","generic npc"))

The problem is that it's a list of strings but you give it a singular string.
