        I can’t even keep up with one character without feeling like I’m falling behind!

        Those who can manage all of the alts and give them more than surface-level attention are to be respected and feared, for they have transcended my plane of existence.

        And they should do so somewhere where it’s not against the rules.

        And as a bonus, maybe not lie. Maybe.

            I’ve been in a real creative funk recently due to various issues but I read a journal today that was just refreshing in the sense of wonder over stories that I’ve been working on for years at this point. It reminded me why I do this and I think I might see a path out of this black cloud.

            lol lmao

            It's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me

                        Missing the small, off-game interactions with a few people because they (completely understandably) slipped off a discord server when they became staff.

                        I have a hard time pinging staff just to say hi, but.

                        Hi.

                            heck no, from now on all of my characters were born in the traveling circus regardless of what it says on any “sheet” or whatever pretentious BS

                            don’t ever tell me how to live my life

                              That does describe most of Arx’s orgs, last I checked.

                                @Roz Sure, I read it, but I can’t remember any of the commands to do anything… you expect me to remember anything in background that isn’t chaotic-chot and/or lewd-evil?

                                  @Jennkryst you don’t have to remember it, who can remember everything you’ve ever read?? you just have to read it in the first place so that you don’t take a character whose bg has established facts that you immediately contradict when you start playing because you don’t give a shit about the fact that someone wrote that.

                                  Also no one remembers commands. Except @Roz.

                                      I’m not sure who this is but thank you. It’s been a challenging adjustment on this end too. You can always reach out to me on Cristoph or Porter when I’m logged in if you want to chat, or I answer PMs here when they turn up! I’ve even been known to use Discord.

                                        there are very few rosters whose sexualities are made explicit. taking one of those few and then taking action to try and bring them closer to straight because you don’t wanna play gay is gross. just pick up a different character.

                                          I actually had this conversation with a friend when I was considering playing Jasher. I love his BG and the complications inherent in his story but while I very frequently play male characters, I do not play gay male characters well or realistically. Ultimately decided to not go in that direction because I definitely would not want to play him straight considering!

                                            And that seems like a super reasonable response and what I’d consider the best approach! And while I definitely don’t begrudge someone for missing something on their read of a BG, it becomes very different when the response is “oh well I’ll ask to change that” rather than putting down a character you just picked up that you don’t want to play to sheet in such a big way.
