Clearly he doesn’t tolerate harassment and abuse. He encourages it!
Guy doesn’t just encourage it, either. He spies on people TSing, he is an abuser. No wonder he’s fine with all these other creepy weirdos.

@Wuff sad lol

His disregard for Hadrix still demonstrates a lack of awareness.
Or endorsement.

Update.
The alts, and only the alts for a number of departed players have been @nuked. Mains have been left intact. Reasons unknown but appears to be retaliation. Interestingly, this includes players who have not posted in this thread, nor announced their departure.
At this point, someone here has most definitely won crazy staff bingo. Your prize is at the front desk.

Lol, what?
Just random @nuke?

Honestly I’m surprised my charbits haven’t been nailed yet. Maybe the alias is working.
-
@Das-Auto Honestly? I think this is turning into 4D Bingo at this rate. All these updates seem determined to one-up each other.

@GF said in Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo:
@Drowsy I suppose the honesty required for them to openly admit “I want a private Star Wars game themed around sexual assault, so anyone who doesn’t like it can leave” is refreshing. Seems like they could get the same thing at Shang but what do I know.
Correction: that apparently should have read, “I want a private Star Wars game themed around sexual assault, and I’ll ban anyone who doesn’t like it.”
-
Just think… It’s all happening here. The legacy continues.

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.
On AoA, Cujo & Creeps also listen in on pages. They also have the habit of quietly removing players’ ability to speak on the Public and Newbie channels. I know of several people who had this happen after they spoke up on something Cujo didn’t want to hear about (a subject Cujo himself brought up in one case, and in another case giving chargen advice on DSS), or said something that made him look stupid or uncool (which was only pulling off his mask). If you’re still on that game, don’t say anything in pages you don’t want them to hear. They will.
@GoodInnit said in Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo:
As a person who just left that game, I completely believe you. Cujo talks a big game about not tolerating harassment, but his refusal to actually address it anywhere shows you who he is. He doesn’t address it because he doesn’t think it’s wrong. Every ban he did enforce has been someone he was personally mad at, no ban has ever been because they mistreated other players. He’s a sad little king on an angry little hill.
This is also true. The Players’ Bill of Rights is a sham. When it comes to players, the only good about them Cujo sees is names on WHO. Everything else is a big open mouth that’s either eating up his database space with objects, or yowling about some problem he doesn’t care about because it’s not his.

Interestingly, this includes players who have not posted in this thread, nor announced their departure.Probably people he was already pissed at. Considering this got out (if only because Cujo has no control over the narrative here), he’s furiously flailing and apparently doesn’t realize word of that will get out too, and not just here. Gains are slow and hard to make on AoA. Removing somebody’s work just for spite is no way to make them come running back.
Speaking of which, controlling the narrative is incredibly important to Cujo. Aside from removing bboard posts that he doesn’t like, he started a Discord channel several years back as a way for players to keep track of the game and events without logging in. It was equally heavily controlled; post something he didn’t like, and it’d vanish fast. Another player had one for a group on the game, which Cujo didn’t like (because of that lack of control) but couldn’t take down because he didn’t own it. He did ask the player to take it down. No dice. A couple years later, it did get taken down when that player left the MUSH.

@Anony-Mouse I will never side eye a gamerunner not wanting players to run discords about their game.
I mean, clearly this Cujo is a real piece of work in every other regard, but on that one point? Yeah. I got burnt out trying to mitigate all the harm players caused each other on player run discords.

@hellfrog Indeed. The only game I know that does this is Sindome, and well that is a trash fire. Meaning the thinking he can cover things up, not the discord bit. People will always talk, but if it is good or bad is not my debate.
(EDITED: Clarity)
-
@BloodAngel I run a Discord that’s tied to my game. And while I would love to not need it(and I have tried, believe me, to discard it), I think the only reason it works at all is simply due to the fact that there are barely more than twenty people on it. If the game was larger, nah. Hard stop, that’d be relegated to garbage bin.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021

@Testament No I mean it’s against the rules of the game to talk about the game. PERIOD!

I am very, very, very, very much aware as a former Staffer that use of the suspect system was not to protect other players. AOA paired with Generations of Darkness where Kitty also abused the use of the suspect system has made me VERY wary of playing anywhere that has Penn or Rhost.
I have very vivid memories of being a victim of the suspect system when I was struggling with an OOC romantic relationship with another player/staffer where I was talking to someone else about it and those pages were passed along to the person I was with at the time.
When Staff starts using a system meant to protect players from abusers to instead spy on players they don’t like or to get dirt on people, that’s a big red flag for me.

It’s amazing how you don’t even think about a game and suddenly it gets brought up, and you’re like:
Wow, the shit I remember thinking was “okay, but sketchy” in my yesteryears and now going “Holy shit that was abusive in reflection,” and it is obviously still going on.
No one has publicly called them out for it before, and I just walked away from AOA after an attempt to come back 8-ish years ago and never looked back.

I am mostly mystified that this dude hasn’t been tarred and feathered on the public commons before. So to speak.
let it be a challenge to you
