Something something bring me code, descs can come out slowly/as needed.

add “every time someone says they have all the great IDEAS for a game, they just need someone to do all the code” to the drinking game

edit to add: I will code it, but someone has to teach me how to do it… problem is, I’m a kinesthetic learner, so like… assigning me homework/pages to read will teach me nothing.

@Roz Wasn’t there a drinking game?
We are all old enough and in poor enough health we don’t need to tempt fate by doing this as a drinking game.

damn, lol.
@hellfrog upon waking up every morning:

Also, I’m not saying my ideas are great… but they are definitely not as shit as spying on TS when I would obviously be invited to join, so

I mean someone needs to hold the lightsaber, right?
-
@Sammich Only if the parties share the lightsaber kink?

As someone who once Staffed on AOA (long, long ago), I am not surprised that harassers like this… person who I am honestly too lazy to scroll up and find his name again… are not removed from their position of power.
Considering that a current member of Staff has, in the past, set himself dark and sat in the same room I was TSing in, and I only figured it out because I have this obsessive habit of typing WHO and +WHERE on my Staff bit (no reason, just like, a habit) and saw him in the room. And I couldn’t really tell Cujo… because… it was Cujo.
So.
Yeah.
There’s that.

@blu I’m so sorry. That had to be very, I don’t have words. I’m fucking sorry. I would have lost my mind.

Using Dahan’s code on a MU, pulling the ol’ “my wife needs me to be a man” cheaty character switcheroo, vague Serenity flashbacks, spying on TS while @dark… What is this, 2005?

@blu …the fuck.

@blu What did you do after you found that out? And like how many years ago was this? I’m curious as to what ‘age’ AoA was at, as it’s kind of been through different phases it seems like.
I remember around 10 years ago there was a staffer on a place called Lantern Hill. It’s had a few versions since that didn’t seem to take off by a small group of staffers that kept making mu*'s on different themes. I think the last one I saw from that group was Coyote Pass possibly. This staffer - the female lead of the game had a thing against TS. The rule was not in public. Okay, sure. That seems fair. But she hated TS as a rule. Took a personal affront for some reason. She would go dark and spy on people to see if they were having it then post that we were always ‘one thread’ from going !ts. I was having a session in a private place when she walked through and we got an ear full. She claimed it was ‘checking on code’. Soon after I took a couple days off and came back and most the playerbase had gone elsewhere because she was targeting a few players and they finally had enough. But the heavy handed tactics made people leave. This was a game with 20-25 people, not larger like AoA. The game never recovered, including attempts to reboot. It’s a shame because I did like the theme and players. Last I heard a couple years ago there was a non-public ares attempt to remake it, but I lost track of it.
For Serenity - it does take simliar tones at AoA. I remember being annoyed and talking to a friend there I was tight with elsemu. I said something like F Mal and his wife (Inara) at the time via page. He came at me and banned me for it. The player never said anything and I was close enough I believed him. Things others have said give me no doubt he had everyone as suspect, or was parsing logs for his or Inara’s name, etc. Seems like it was common for him. Nothing was private on that game.
I came back some time later, maybe 2, 3 years or something. New ISP, thought I’d try again. I was curious where the game went. And it was nowhere good. Way worse. There was a player, Amber-something. She was a head or staff favorite (or staff for all I know) of the pirate faction. I remember she rp’d about having a mechanical ‘working’ male genital part that she could put on that could cause a pregnancy. I remember asking ‘uh, did you get that approved by staff?’. And she said yes, it’s all approved. I never followed up because that question would be embarassing as hell. But if they did approve that, I just couldn’t take something like that seriously anymore. I stopped logging in around there.

What did I do?
I paged him. Asked what he was doing. Honestly can’t remember the answer, but it must have been enough to make me assume he wouldn’t do it again. This was 15-ish years ago; I was in my mid-twenties, and honestly there’s a lot of ways I talked myself out of being overdramatic about the whole thing.
But I never really trusted that private RP was private and I always checked +where before and during any kind of that RP.
-
@blu 15 years is quite some time - maybe Cujo’s farmed out the perv to Dax in his stead?
Still, it’s concerning and I’m sorry you had to go through something so crazy.
