[quote=Brovo]Why is 1x1 so sleazy and lazy? Because it's fucking easy. First of all, you usually only want a single partner, and 1x1 is all about that. Second of all, you only need to get one other person to agree, and 1x1 is all about that.

Although I wouldn't go that far, I agree with the stuff you've said prior to that. 1x1 has certainly become something like a meat shop, but I've never visioned the genre to be that way and I think a lot of people feel the same. I would love to do a 1x1 with somebody to essentially write a collaborative story, and while you point out that you would only need 1 other person to agree with you, both the RPers also have much more responsibility and weight on their shoulders in terms of how the story ends up going and being shaped. In that way I wouldn't say the genre is lazy, just the people it seems to attract, since they have such a lazy interpretation of it.

[quote=Brovo]As if the meat shopping wasn't enough of a problem, you also have a lot of people there who register and basically just stay in that section permanently, without ever having read the rules on the site. For example: How many times have you seen comments about "adult content" being partially or even completely allowed in one way or another? Or even having to mention adult content allowance or denial... On a site that flat out denies adult content.[/quote]

To be fair, the site acknowledges that they can't control what we do privately, so whenever I see that a 1x1 intends to engage in adult content I assume that the RPer wants to conduct the RP via PM or elsewhere, but maybe I'm giving them too much credit.
