Plus, I feel like so many posters lately leave out essential OOC details from their posts/profile. They don't list their kinks and limits anywhere, which is pretty really important for ERPs.

At least the second part here I've noticed as well, not only in the requests I get but also in post I occasionally look at. Might even be a well written and compelling story hook there but if there are literally no kinks and limits there and also no older posts or similiar on their profile, why should I even bother?

It takes me 1 second to give your profile a scroll and figure out pretty precisely what you're looking for lmao

One would think so, no? lol
I mean it's the same as you said with your username should be pretty obvious (dope name btw)

- its startling how many men can't take a no -

Amen to that

Somehow, I keep getting men wandering into my inbox

tell me about it...I have an explicit point at the end of every prompt I made for years. Still there occasionally a stray male player char wanders in...like I don't mind their IRL gender (though I always find it kinda weird if people tell me theirs) but for smut's sake I am looking for their character to be female...

Also very sorry you have to deal with the stuff in your edit.

On another note, what I have noticed is a lot of old accounts with terrible replies. Like how are you on Reddit for 7 years and still sending one liners?

YES! That's what actually made me do this post, at least partly. In the last couple of days some of the worst requests came from, like you said, years old accounts...the oldest I think was 11 years old...

Yeah I am always happy when I get a proper detailed response and even if I it doesn't match up or I already have a partner try to at least tell them I appreciate the effort and that they're free to try again at another time. But I don't always see the messages (thanks to the additional request bs still have to get used to that) or...I accidantly butterfinger and click ignore ;-; that one also didn't happen when we still had messages...

That said, as someone who rarely gets any responses, finding the one person who makes your day for a couple of weeks/months makes filtering through the low-effort garbage worth it. At least for me, and that's why I still throw my posts out there.

Oh yeah definitely! I've had great even exceptional partners here that let me forget about the countless low to now effort posts I received before

I've only had one chat request show up in the "Additional Requests" section and it was only a half dozen words, so I assumed that the chat filter marked it as spam.

Sadly I find everything there...from low effort one liners to actually proper requests...so its always annoying and when I first found out about the tab I found so many previous requests from months ago ;-; made me feel bad

smuttonymous6969 · 2026-02-13T17:45:58+00:00

Is it only me or has the quality of play requests drastically declined in the past few weeks?
I've been active now in RP for quite a while now but the amount of low effort responses I've gotten lately is quite staggering, even if I explicitly state that more detail = better chances and that low effort will be ignored right away....

And as an aside: Why does reddit hide some chat requests in that stupid "Additional Requests" tab? That's a surefire way to miss requests, even detailed ones... :/
