that's true. to be honest, i looked over that fact because the moment i see a bad rper joining an rp that i'm in, i'm out. if the gm is willing to accept players like that then they clearly aren't dedicated enough to their rp and will just run it into the ground.

for reals tho how hard is it to think to yourself "will i still be interested in and want to actively post in this rp later down the line?" when applying.  like tf.

Yep.

Sometimes the above happens and in some form of cancer it happens in reverse; Bad people ditch because they're too lazy to fully read and gasp a more advanced situation; So they leave instead. It's fucked up, honestly. Because it downs the playercount regardless of who leaves, and the GM starts going "Well, fuck me sideways" no matter which one left. It's just a mess that comes with forum roleplaying; Especially groups. Which is the best way to do it, yeah, but it just isn't enjoyable most of the time. It's a stress-filled mess.
