in my humble opinion
Sometimes I worry that our generation pretends to understand and discuss bullying, yet we still do things that are essentially bullying and we do it without a second thought, and some of you will teach your children that as long as you are speaking your mind that it’s okay to be insulting to another person and then we’re never going to get out of this horrific cycle of bullying. Some people are strong enough to brush it off, but what about those that aren’t? Sure, you don’t have to like everyone, but you also don’t have to be mean about it. If you think about it, we all have a voice as RPCs, and promoting that type of behavior can have consequences. Maybe you don’t think this is relevant to you as an RPC, and maybe you may think that I’m taking a stretch by connecting these things, but just think about it for a minute. Look at what happened with that one image, how people jumped on it and spread it and were completely fine with disparaging another human being, and think about what you are promoting by simply reblogging something like that. We act like we’re such progressive people, such an enlightened generation that understands that sticks and stones aren’t the only type of pain that we can inflict upon one another, but what happens when we don’t recognize the fact that our words hurt people, simply because they’re not in the form of verbal words, but an image or post on the internet?
Keeping track of your roleplay accounts and e-mails.
This is just a pointer that I recently thought I would share, because I always say that I will do this but I never get around to it. If you’re like me, an avid roleplayer that has multiple e-mail accounts and tumblr roleplay accounts, you might find that you sometimes forget the e-mail or url of some of your accounts. If you have Google Chrome or another browser that autosaves information, you might rely on that to save your e-mails and passwords, and expect it to be there every time you log in to an account. Like any and all technology, however, these methods are not 100% reliable. If your computer crashes or you have some issue with your browser, you could lose all of those e-mails and possibly lose those roleplaying accounts. I’ve played the game of trying to get tumblr to help with this before, and it didn’t go well. The only way for them to tell you what e-mail you used to sign up for any given account is if you can prove that the blog is yours - by screencapping a picture of yourself from the blog and sending in a picture of yourself, or posting from a linked twitter account that you are who you say you are, and honestly, I don’t know of anyone that posts pictures of themselves on their roleplay accounts or links them to their twitter.
So, my simple little pointer is to write these things down. It might be time consuming and you might think that it’s pointless, but if you have several accounts that you sometimes don’t use that you might want to log into one day to look at old paras or something, this can come in handy. It can also just come in handy for anyone that just wants to be sure that they’ll have access to their roleplaying accounts just in case something happens to their computer or browser. Some simple ways of doing this:
NOTE: It would be smart to print these things out when they’re done and keep the list or spreadsheet on your desk or tacked to a bulletin board, wherever you usually use your computer. As I said, there are always issues with technology, and you never know, you could lose that file or Google Docs could one day be hacked and everything could be gone. It never hurts to have a hard copy of something. Or better yet, just do this all on paper.

thehumbleroleplayer's Fabulous Faces ★ Monica Raymund
Monica is best known at the moment for her role as EMT Gabriela Dawson in the action packed firehouse drama, Chicago Fire. Her other notable roles are in Lie to Me, The Good Wife, and Arbitrage. She is a brilliant actress and musician that would make a wonderful addition to any roleplay, and is unfortunately not used very often, but she has a good number of GIFs for use from her television roles.
