@KarmaBum sometimes there was real hurt behind that behavior too. Someone felt very wronged and wanted to strike back. Still overkill to call CPS/deface rl social media/ect. But I don’t think everyone was always angry about trite things at least not to them.
I do think that is why the reputation around gossip boards has stuck though. There can be a lot of anger and vitriol when people are invested. I think a lot of bad behavior on games in general is because of investment/need or because the person just doesn’t put the same controls on themselves as they would in a face to face friendship or acquaintance/club meeting activity. Or they could be having a straight up breakdown or mental health spiral.
But I think what’s behind it is very rarely truly petty.
I’m just glad that for the most part we as a community in general have lines that most folks agree should not be crossed and those that do (even if they claim to not know/understand why) are given less passes than they were before.

I want to know why I was not put in a sidebox (with a pink border) labelled “Clique Mascot”.

Clique mascot.
I draw things! http://www.mahaldoodles.com

Our mascot arrives, starts licking the peach, refuses to elaborate, leaves.
-
@Solstice It’s gonna be a t-shirt.
-
… is it okay I thought that was a little orange baby kitten and now I am a tiny bit sad it is an orange?
-
@junipersky It’s a peach!
Er I mean yes. It’s an orange. Sure. Yes. <_<

@crawfish I thought it was an orange BABY KITTEN.
Ignore the stem and leaves and tell me that it couldn’t me a lil baby facing its grown-up getting groomed.
-
@junipersky Eeeehhhh no but I can draw that too someday.
-
@crawfish I now suddenly feel obligated if you’re going to play Stray.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021

@Testament sigh
Probably. But only after I finish Subnautica.
-
Jesus Christ, you guys. I stop posting for two months and all of a sudden I’m friends with Roz and Hellfrog? It’s like you fuckers don’t know me at all.
-
So, yeah. Welcome to the party. You and I are friends now.
(It’s only funny if you’re Cher though, that’s how I meant it.)

@Aria
It’s a mad, mad world, yo. -
If we’re friends now, I expect your meme tax to be paid regularly and on time. I recommend adhering to a weekly basis to avoid the panic rush of looming deadlines.
In order to save on clerical fees, this can be submitted in the same conversation as us making vague noises at each other about how we should RP but not actually doing it.
-
i really want to rp with you all again, as i get back into arx.
-
I walked away.
Ultimately, I don’t think there’s going to be any changing minds on that board, and I was twisting myself in knots and refreshing the damn page every few minutes for several hours. That shit ain’t healthy, especially for a place that isn’t going to reciprocate.
I’d rather focus on making content here.
This means there’s probably an anime thread in your future, for which I apologize. ( Except I ain’t sorry. )

@Solstice Yeah, there was a two week span I just stopped everything over there, and then one day everything exploded again. It’s hard to not call out the blatant hypocrisy, but it’s probably never going to stop.
Especially when Ghost is going to stir shit up and then play innocent like he’s not the one who keeps restarting things after they die down. On top of the MSB admins just… ignoring him breaking their rules right in front of them. Just keep piling up the evidence that it wasn’t actually about making a better forum. Because if it was, again… they could have gone and made their own new forum. I’ve been told a couple times now it’s not that hard.
Mummy Pun? MUMMY PUN!

ALLIES HO! (like the tally-ho chipper war cry, not like me being one but I mean I guess that works too so
