yeah applications are to tell you about the player more than the character, I think. "Name a non-fictional woman that is smarter than you’ would be a perfect application prompt.

Faraday and Cobalt. Next question.

you’re in, buddy!

@Yam said in Other People:

I was def curious about how often most RPers even consider Other People’s fun.

I’m so worried about other people’s fun and happiness that my therapist wishes I would just be a selfish asshole once a month.

I almost hesitate to say this, and it’s not aimed at specific people, but it’s fact that there is a heavy Shang/Pen element to the occasional influxes that keep boosting AoA and the tolerance for sexual harassment is almost certainly higher within the “new community”.

The community that built back up on AoA in 2017-2018 was not largely drawn from sex mushes. There’s a reason so many people left in 2023, many of whom likely had not personally experienced harassment. The old community and new community have very different characteristics.

@SockMonkey a sad day! WAAH

@catzilla said in MU Peeves Thread:

I may be wrong to assume this site is anti-Nazi/etc.

SO!

Pet peeve, when the CWOD discord server you’re on decides to open a politics channel and you see not only the host of the server refuse to say they’re anti-Nazism but also a bunch of people supporting Nazism in the server… 😞 Many sads that there’s still people clinging to all that nonsense in the RP world.

It’s en vogue now.

@Meg said in Discussion: On Dragon Wings:

i grabbed t’mas off the roster. he looked fun. anyone who wants to play adjacent to me, hmu. (as a child?? or a wingrider?)

One of his kids IS on the roster. 👀

a man in a suit is making a funny face and saying oh no !

@howyadoin said in Bad Stuff Happening IC:

@MisterBoring Silent Heaven already exists

ETA: joke

You joke, but Silent Heaven players will 100% sign up for all of that and have a great time. The first event I ran that was tagged “risk of character death” had 31 characters sign up for it. I’m impressed by their ability to find brief moments of IC fun, relief and happiness for their characters, even in the direst situations.

@Roz obvs so nothing dethrones the AoA thread post count.

@hellfrog I think I tried to do a rewatch like ten years ago and couldn’t or wouldn’t. Mean middle school girl go live in computer. What a timestamp, though. Internet trolls from the 1900s.

@tsar I am replying here to get your attention for no reason related to past posts in this thread.

I just want to say I both appreciate and 😄 over the 🐌 facts I see when I peek at Crimson Compass’s site.

Hello fellow old! Arashi/Alexis/Julianne/Energy Lass (and…well…yeah…Oracle) from Crucible City here! Just rediscovered my hundreds of Crucible City logs in a backup drive and was poking around the net curiously. Figured I’d pop in to say hi! 😄

@Warma-Sheen said in Warma-Sheen:

As Hollywood on TR, I was banned because I kept pestering Troy about trying to get other staffers to quit talking crap about my character on staff channels. She told me to stop bothering her and I didn’t. It wasn’t until after I was banned did some accusations about cheating get thrown out after the fact from which I never got a chance to address/defend and only heard about 3rd hand, which I think were about looking at my own jobs as a staffer, to which, if that was a thing, wasn’t more than occasional typos of the many, many, many jobs that I handled there.

Troy: is that the dude who used the Shemar Moore pb?
Coin: yes.
Troy: that dude was straight up cheating.

Troy: i’m glad he remembers all those details, cuz i sure as fuck don’t. but he was a fucking menace.

Troy: ask yourself why the staffers were talking shit about his character.

Troy: the game was better for it when he left. and by left we mean got kicked out. sorry not sorry.

also, as Coin, I will say, i remember Kelvin being the most metagame-y, minmax-y, Pledge-abusing, power-gaming dude in the Changeling sphere, and this was CONCURRENT (to a degree) with VASpider’s tenure there, so keep that in mind.

cheers.
