Everyone complains about cliche RPs, yet when a new idea comes along, it's ignored?

I wish this logic is ignored so my RPs will be popular. |

Yes, but vam, let's take you.
I hate to admit it, but sometimes you have a unique idea. Recently, the World Walkers one. There are others as well.
Is it because vam is hated? Is it because of the lack of grammar? Is it because people are just lazy hypocrites?

Man, there is absolutely nothing I can say to you guys to console you but to say,
The struggle is REAL.
Sorry
;)) |
|
|
It's because of the infamy in his name.
And vam's logic still applies. We praise for unique and new ideas, yet we don't ever join them. |

Pretty much, I sit down for two hours writing world walkers. Making it good was a hard as hell.
World Walkers
So some magic turtles give you power to walk into other worlds.
Try building off of that. |

Vam has good ideas, which I've told him, and I've actually used one of his.

@vam
That sounds like Avatar. |

Yeah I made it after watching six episodes. |
|
|
But I know your feel.
It's really the people not joining that made me stop making RPs all together. You spend hours, even days working on it but no one actually joins.
It sucks. |

Okay, I usually stray away from this topic because it's always brought up but nothing is ever done about it. Ever.
Cliche roleplay does not mean bad roleplay. Granted, majority of roleplays that are going to say "highschool" "academy" heroes" "zombies" or "hunger games" are going to crash and burn, but you need to understand that it's the quality of the roleplay and the writer within the story that makes it awful or not.
Some writers here will write an awful story but it'll be unique and different than zombies so people join it. Some are too long and extensive so the more (sorry, children) uneducated and illiterate choose to not join it. You need to remember this IS a site for kids that don't really have a college reading level so you can't expect them to join your 8995 thousand word roleplay that sounds like you used a webster's thesaurus for every word. |

Aw, shucks. |

CORRECTION! I use a thesaurus. |

I try to make more roleplays, but the fact I know people won't join stops me. Unless I get a really good idea. |
|
|
Coincidence this was made right after my not-quite-so original story idea? |
|
|
No. I promise, yours is cool. However, I wanted to post this yesterday, but I didn't get home until about midnight.

I'm 11 and I have a college reading level. Probably not exactly that, but it's probably a bit higher than my age for sure. Heck, I'm one of the most respected RPers in this era. |
|

I'm 12 and I think I'm pretty intelligent for that age |

Hey look, 8200th post.
And I wrote "but it's PROBABLY A BIT HIGHER than my age FOR SURE." |
