Is there any other threads that keep getting dug up every couple of months like this one?
I was asked to stop bringing up the ‘behold how dead MSB has become’ thread. Incidentally… behold how dead it has become, I haven’t been able load the page in months, looks like they finally took it off life support and give up on the illusion they actually cared about the community.

EMBARRASSING removal of pants to reveal powder blue briefs!
The only embarrassing part of this is the decision to wear non-smutty underwear (or any underwear at all). Low TS goblin energy.

And it will continue, because people fall for the Gilded Game.
Sorry, I’ve been too Battletech-pilled due to FLGS reasons to do anything re: Star Wars Gold of Our Own game (mostly trying to glare at MegaMek to work in a way that can be shoved into a web-browser in case people want to stompy robot while doing their space Lords and Ladies). I will probably have a manic shift to hyper-focus on something else, but Star Wars isn’t top 5 at the moment so who knows when it’ll get back up there.

he was the same cat 20 years ago that he is now
Unrelated to the topic at hand, but can we bring this kind of phrasing back, please?

Thanks for your comments: I play there, and I think, so far, I haven’t outed myself, but I’ve always heard about this sort of thing and said, ‘Don’t get involved, won’t involve me.’ Hearing about players getting shitted on on a staff chat, though, one of those things I knew had been happening, but as long as I didn’t know it was happening, I could surf along. But now my paranoia is kicking in and considering my alt, and the profession/businesses she has, well - I just got a lot more paranoid.
I started playing there just before the inciting event for this thread, even got to play with Hex and company, and it was great. But every time I see a group of people arrive, and start to play with them, a month or two down the road, here we go again.
And no, havne’t even tried to play with Sumi and Company, because even I knew better.
But considering what you are saying, even I am beginning to wonder if it’s worth keeping the chars there. Not that I have been getting loads of RP since the last batch of people came and went.
Once agian, thanks for speaking up!

Why oh why, can’t we have a quality SW MUSH run by adults…

@MisterBoring I was thinking the same thing, because all this rotten shit from AoA reminds me so much of what Lib truly is, but far more disturbingly, I’m reminded of the ways players gaslight themselves into staying there and trying to learn how to tolerate abuse and neglect, thus enabling more of both. One by one folks I warned and even gave a roadmap to how they’ll be eaten up if they stayed on Lib, would months or now years later come to me and say, “You were right.”
But it’s not that I’m right, it’s that successful abusers have a process and patterns. Once you learn to identify that, you can more confidently stand up for yourself and stop enabling the abuse, which usually includes the step of severing yourself from the place(s) where they abuse you.
Sometimes people choose to create their community and self-identify in abuse because it’s familiar and they feel in their element, to the point of becoming abusers themselves in the absence of outside abuse. Peace and love to those stuck in the cycle, but I truly hope they can summon the grit to face terror they feel towards having to change who they are, because who they let themselves remain until that happens is truly heartbreaking (and also possibly dangerous).

If there was a realistic option for a Star Wars MUSH, that had even half the grid that AoA has, I doubt I would stay there for long - other than keeping an alt there for communication reasons for people that might pop in only ever so often.

Aw, haha. I was a casualty of Cujo’s spree when all this went down (whole crew got banned), but if you had good experiences with us I’m very glad for that. The game is unfortunately not a good place to be, though.
-
Was chatting with a friend who used to play on AoA and said something that is both funny and yet sad at the same time.
“What a world we live in, when the staff of a s*xMUSH are far more competent and reasonable than on AoA.”
-
Since a lot of people asked: Because it is a fun place to play. It was more fun when I had more friends there, but it’s not like there’s a ton of really active places to peddle my unique brand of lazy socializing. Usually when a game gets mentioned as an alternative, I log on to find 4-8 people there.
I like big games like AoA and Arx, where there are people of all sorts about at 1am. I was miffed about Cujo because I tried to actively reach out to him and interact. Him being weird doesn’t make the game unplayable.
But, that said, I don’t think I’ve seriously played since September. I just keep hoping the spark will reappear, and if it doesn’t, whatever.

I guess I have a very different definition of ‘weird’. Weird to me is like, occasionally spouting off ‘i has sporkz’ randomness.
Being a sex pest, supporting/sheltering sex pests, and all the various levels of harassment that have been described in this thread is not ‘weird’ it’s abuse.
But, there is the statistic where it takes someone about 7 times/tries before they leave their abuser.
