@spiriferida For L&L, really play up the politics, intrigue, animosity between rival families, and management aspects to the level that no one has time to knock boots on screen.
Demand characters have so many administrative skills, they become virtually unfuckable.
Joke’s on you, I’m into that shit

Alright alright alright.
I just didn’t want this to turn into a discussion about policy when it’s not a matter of the policy involved but of obtaining consent under false pretenses.
You’re right. That sucks.
I just had the same reaction as @helvetica and was leaning back in my chair thinking about the the wild world of policies. Thinking about comic games making unfortunate rules about character gender and sexuality. IDK.
Our hobby sure is a place sometimes.

I’m dying out here. What’s the policy?
ETA: Okay, okay, okay. A good and wise friend has pointed out to me that perhaps it makes sense to not want to say in all cases. Obviously lying to get TS is really fucking bad tho, okay?

RE: AI Megathreadposted in No Escape from Reality
@Faraday IDK, I’d just continue to call them imperfect tools. That just puts it at 1 false flag in 11 samples instead of it’s 0 false flags out of 10 samples. Still not garbage.
I think there are real issues in these tools, but I think it is a mistake to write it all off as garbage. Use it as a tool alongside human judgment. Try to use the best tool you can.

RE: AI Megathreadposted in No Escape from Reality
I don’t agree with your conclusions. From the same article:
The results varied widely, and in some cases, dramatically.
Pangram and Originality.ai were the most reliable performers. Pangram returned 0 percent across all ten articles. Originality.ai returned 0 percent on eight of ten, with 1 percent on the remaining two. Both tools correctly identified every piece as human written.
Grammarly performed nearly as well, returning 0 percent on eight articles and flagging two at 7 percent and 9 percent respectively—low enough that neither would likely trigger concern in practice.3 out of 5 did okay? They are tools to use alongside human reasoning. But demonstrably they aren’t garbage.

Definitely craving something in the horror-adjacent urban fantasy space - CoD, Unknown Armies, Curseborne, anything like that would be great.
My forever-want is gaslamp fantasy with a real sense of Victorian authenticity. Not necessarily “perfectly historically accurate”, but made by someone who understands what the social conflicts of the era were for the place they’re setting it, and has a real reason to set a game in THIS place and THIS time, with supernatural/fantasy elements that really lean into it. Spiritualism, for example – hell, something set in the Burned Over District would be great fun.

RE: Age Verification & Gamesposted in Game Gab
I evaded a LOT of minimum age requirements as a teenager, I admit. But I think it’s perfectly valid to want an adults-only experience (even if I also think it’s healthy to acknowledge that it’s more an adults-and-people-good-at-acting-adult only space, instead).
I do not want to give my government ID to anyone over a game. Not least of which because some people are crazy and some of these crazy people run games.
