@Roz I fear any time we speak of generalities in MUing we’re going to have to have “Except on Arx” as a meme—like Crash Course World History’s near-infamous Except The Mongols crash-cut (as they are the exception to so many of history’s expectations).

Because one can interact with people outside of their little group, should they choose.
Theoretically I guess, but in my experience this almost never happens. (see the comments above regarding interruptions, being yelled at for spam, etc.)
The only poses I ever saw going to the main room were the static announcements or the “oops I forgot to use tt command” nonsense.
But to each their own.
raises hand i saw it happen a lot on places like arx. depending on the event, it would be a mix of posing to the room and posing to tabletalk, people would pose indicators of reactions that would be notable enough for others in the scene to see, move between different tabletalk areas, react to something happening outside of tabletalk, etc. these weren’t rarities, they were things i’d see at nearly every event scene of any size.

Irritatingly true, but I feel that might be a misapplication of the idea. If one is being loud and rambunctious at their table then it should be part of the main scene as well.
But I have no llama in this race, I don’t have the attention span for a 90-minute movie without checking my phone, much less a 90-minute “look how great I am” romp with fifty other half-dressed participants.

Aaarr Peee?
I vaguely recall this as a concept. A thought. A theory. Something I did once, in my youth…

I don’t have a strong feeling about them one way or another. I remember back on Metro (I’m old, okay?) if you had super hearing you could listen to what was happening at table talk. I learned so much stuff and some stuff I wish I could un-learn.
I appreciated it when on Arx I was walking around in a mask at the blood moon giving people their futures and their destinies. I mean sure I was making them up on the spot when they failed their dice game with me, but it was private to their table to share or not share, but the room knew I was bartering secrets for futures.

I put 2+ years. I’ve dabbled a bit here and there. Maybe half a dozen scenes? But the spark just hasn’t been there in a long time.
