@helvetica Ah, thank you!

Feeling bad for that Magicians Game guy from a while back whose worst crime was having Feature Characters from the show/books, I tell you what.
(idk why I originally posted this in the wrong thread, I’m bad at the internet)
I want something else to get me through this
Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
I want something else, I'm not listening when you say good-byeShe/Her or They/Them

@untitled Well, chookitypook is making a char there - https://underthestarsgame.com/char/Angelica
-
@CuriousGamer PS - hide the dicks
-
@CuriousGamer That’s a previous character that has since been unapproved.

I feel like any player who cannot seem to treat people with kindness and respect on their own game is unlikely to treat people with kindness and respect on my game.
ETA: reputations matter
-
@helvetica Oh rly? Nice.
-
@CuriousGamer Actually, her character is unapproved and will be Gone, soon.
If one sets a character to Gone, they have their password reset and cannot be logged into any longer.
However, the character will not be randomly killed. We have plenty of NPCs for that. No need to be spiteful.

So UTS is invite only? Hmmmm. I was curious what it was too. Thanks for answering!

It seems more along the lines of invite by you knowing someone on the game over just being invited by staff.
-
@RightMeow Yeah. Just like, if you’ve played with someone who plays there… hit them up

@RightMeow Friends of friends (of friends of friends…)
We’re a modern supernatural horror game set in Winnipeg and we definitely have a sense of humor about it all. Someday I’ll finish updating the wiki and stuff, but one of our big rules is that we’re all grown-ups and we all have adulting to do, and sometimes the game has to wait.
You can PM me if you want more details, as I don’t want to derail this thread too much, but I also don’t want to post an Advertisement, because while we’re not exclusive we’re not truly public either.
That being said, I’ve been super excited at times to discover what good taste in friends some of my friends have!

I don’t, because like I said before, that’s Willoughby/Wynn@TN/Entropy@Elseworlds and a creep in his own right.
-
Thank you! I don’t know if I’ve got anyone to vouch for me. I just appreciate the knowledge. Thank you!

@Cobalt To be fair, I did say something snarky to her on the chat channel before I logged off the final time, so that’s likely why my char “died” the way she did. Other people that left just had it said their chars were retired.
-
@RedJellyBean Not the ones I know. And they left very politely, with the command to set them gone – not dead, gone – in the request. The first of them was briefly set gone and then set dead instead for some reason.
It’s exceedingly uncool IMO. As is turning someone’s abandoned in-process char into a roster, not to mention doing the same to someone’s retired char. With no permission asked in any of these cases.
Theft and pettiness are not at all good looks for someone asking to be in a position of power (even the minor power of game staff) over others.

lol, you kinda called her a psycho hose beast.

I’ll add her to the wora wiki, then.

@RedJellyBean While I believe a game runner has the right to remove people who are being snarky or disrespectful I still think it’s petty to kill off characters because of it.

Out of restless boredom and nosiness I went and read the obit stuff on the dead pcs. I would have thought them on the sparky side but like a lot of places do that.
But knowing the back story of two of the characters/players and situations honestly I felt pretty sad at the ooc meanness.
Not just killing off the pc (which i feel on many places is fair game). But stripping them icly of their magical abilities and then putting their parents/immediate/whole families to death in an annihilation type of thing is so…reactionary and mean and overkill it is somewhat disturbing and I wish I didn’t see it. I’m not sure I would feel comfortable playing anywhere where this person staffed.
Yeah I’m stupid and its all ic stuff and all that but…ugh.

I think the point is that it’s not IC stuff. It’s motivated by OOC pettiness and vitriol; it’s an OOC retaliation. It makes sense that you’d have this visceral reaction.
