idk usually if things smell like a duck, quack like a duck, and look like a duck, it’s a fucking duck.
This is Tek’s MO. Be dramatic. Delete the receipts. Crawl back later and apologize and claim they are better. Rinse, repeat.
Quoting myself because I called it. See you on the flip side @foksthery when you have another meltdown and accuse yet another person of being a manipulative gaslighter and then crawl back with an apology that isn’t an apology but an excuse to shift the blame.
-
@bear_necessities your friend is a fucking gaslighter who was really weird to me elseMU to the point where being on the same game as them made me super anxious and I was doing my best to respect their boundaries and drove myself batty. I should have left on my own. That was on me. You were right to boot me. No quarrel there.

Fuck this. I said I was out. I’m out. I’m not going to look at this anymore. I’m not going to change anyone’s mind. And that’s fine. I don’t owe you anything and you don’t owe me anything.
-
@bear_necessities I have no issue with you. At all. But maybe be a human being for one minute, instead of shitting on an attempt to improve.
She admitted her fault, she gave her reasons for it. Grind whatever axe you want to for this.
As far as I’m concerned, the issue is over. If it happens again, it’ll be on me for believing it.
@foksthery Stop. You said what you needed to. Don’t hang onto it.
-
@foksthery Hey why don’t you tell everyone who this fucking gaslighter is. Go on.

actual footage of foksthery atm:

What’s the old saying? “Fool me once, shame on…shame on you. Fool me—you can’t get fooled again”???
When someone shows a pattern of bad behavior, they deserve to be called out. I am a human being and I can show real compassion to people. Much like I showed real compassion for TeK when she showed up on my game and I knew she was a drama llama but I gave her the benefit of the doubt. But honestly? After watching this dog & pony show I think like 3 times now? I know it’s not real, and this apology is just as disingenuous as the rest of them.
ETA: Tek, not Tez. Sorry @Tez.
-
@bear_necessities I’m a bad, bad Tez.

YOU tell us!

It’s days like today I remember a lot of the community has social skills as their dump stats.

My MU peeve is when people in the OOC room are gushing about how awesome their character is and how they have this skill and that skill and put x points into y because it synergises with this other thing that lets them do this thing that is super powerful, and their next exp spend is going to be this other thing because that’s going to stack and make them even more powerful.
I don’t even really know why it makes me so uncomfortable? But it does, and every time I just quietly sneak away without saying anything so I don’t have to hear it.
-
@bear_necessities She’s already aware that she’s alienated enough people. Whether or not people start comparing her to Spider, I guess we’ll see.
So what does it take then? I could go into a much larger issue about we damn people irrevocably. If she burns me again, then I’ll act accordingly, but most people get a freebie with me. So if I’m an idiot for that, then I guess that’s my cross to bear at a later date.
All I know is that I’ve done shit and it took me multiple lessons to figure my shit out. I’ve been there. I get it. Not everyone learns the first time and to imply otherwise is a lie. Will this be similar for her? I guess we’ll see. And I’ll burn that bridge if and when I come to it. And people will be free to say “I told you so.” if that happens. I hope it doesn’t.

@Sammich reason number 2395457 that i hate OOC rooms
-
@Testament no one is doing anything to foksthery except doubting her ‘new leaf’.
It’s ok, Horatio, put down thine shield.
EDIT: Because you have to actually DO the change before anyone should give you credit for it. Saying you’re changing isn’t enough.
-
@Testament I’m jumping in because I staffed with @bear_necessities during Tek’s tenure on the game and for me, what it takes is an apology plus NOT DOING THE SAME SHIT AGAIN.
She got her freebie with you, she already burned her freebies with us awhile ago.
I have no problem with you forgiving her. If she’s really sorry, then she won’t pull this shit again. I hope she is really sorry this time.

I know it makes me uncomfortable because it’s leaning so heavily into the power fantasy, and you know they’re itching for a way to show that off – and that’s not necessarily conducive to the health of a game. It feels like they’re playing their characters for the ability to do these things, instead of taking things because they enhance what their character does.
-
OOC rooms just make my damn client blink all the time and I keep thinking it’s someone paging me for RP and get excited and then it’s just someone talking about whether or not Vegeta would win a fight against Alf.
(Which is silly, Alf would clean up, why are we even talking about this.)
-
@Selira Yeah!
And I admit a bit of snobbery in me that makes me look askance at those I think are minmaxing rp characters.
Take something that doesn’t synergize, because it makes sense IC. This is how you get FROG RESPECT.
-
@hellfrog I freely admit to a bit self-insertion during the times where I felt very much the same. And outright stubbornness because I didn’t believe I was the one who was wrong. Which I partially chalk up to ego.
Truth is, it’s more nuanced than that. Far more.
