It's been said. RP is usually some kind of fandom thing, so barring it from a fandom comm is pretty ridiculous. You can argue for the wank issue all you like, but the fact is, that "I hate gays even though I write slash" secret caused more wank than all those RP secrets put together. People who say all RP secrets cause wank haven't been looking, because usually, the RP secrets get passed over unless they're just that brutal and hateful, and then they get laughed at. Which isn't particularly wank.
