All she said about me that is defensible is that I also shared concerns about some asshattery–Which I did/do still have as opinions. But I’m not going to equate those to being the same things as sexual harassment.
This is the problem. It’s not asshattery, locker room talk, jokes, or floating the grey area. It’s toxic vitriol targeted at a group of people. Even if we pretend that it’s for humour, the punchline is still ME or people like me.
Behavior I never defended. Or seek to defend. I said, in responding to ‘[You had issues with him too]’ that my issues with him were different and didn’t compare to sexual harassment.
That’s the only distinction I was making.

Only look at this if you REALLY need a good cringe.

@Wizz That whole thing with Boba being THE BEST gonna get disproven repeatedly, since Din is objectively the most Mandalorian to ever Mand’alor
About that.
Cujo plays Din Djarin as well.
So, just to summarize:
Mandalorian gear is essentially the best on the game. (From what I was told when I played there, please feel free to correct me.)
Clan Kora is the only established Mandalorian playgroup, it is actually against the rules for any other experienced player character to become a Mandalorian and the experience gap between the player characters in that group and a new Mandalorian is insurmountable for all intents and purposes without actual RL years of play.
If you wanted to establish another Mandalorian clan, you’d likely be facing an uphill battle both IC and OOC as this group is known to be aggressive, hostile to the concept, and basically unavoidable.
Clan Kora backs the head staffer’s feature PC – the character who literally started the entire craze amongst the fanbase and who every Mandalorian character is modeled after – as the leader of all Mandalorians, and the only other feature character with a possible canon claim to that position is also played by the head staffer.
That is a level of “insecure manchild” I have rarely seen. It’s almost impressive.

@Wizz Cujo:

@Wizz I was part of another Mandalorian group. My whole clan basically quit because we were sick of the Kora leadership being bullies and shit-talking everyone who didn’t suck up to them.
-
@SqeakyClean I feel that’s spot on…
-
@Wizz That’s the long and short of it, yes.
Sumi’s @doing tagline used to read ‘Talk drek, get rekt.’
Bullying new players is how Clan Kora gets its jollies.

I’m not surprised… I’m just disappointed.

You know. On the flip side. With as many people that are run off by AoA being so poorly run, the harassment (Sexual or otherwise) and the cringiest of cringies that is Hadrix…
Just imagine. Just for a moment. If the game was run well. Just how popular, how many people would be on. It’d be like a 150 char a night game.
Of course now with the loss of staples like mudconnect.com and mudstats.com - it’s a bit harder to find a central hub for games. Unfortunately AoA is still on mudconnect (or the hull that is still there of it) and unwitting players will stumble upon it.

NGL the thing I’m trying to wrap my head around is this pile of refuse passing as a game not having a WORA/MSB thread prior to this.

Lacking a very widely-known central hub for the hobby is both a blessing and a curse.

I have to admit, with the exception of a couple of people who went out of their way to be friendly and provide some nice scenes, I had such a uniquely horrible time there that ended so horrendously, I was this close to opening this particular can of worms myself last year. But I was so extremely burnt out by the experience I just bounced entirely for a while… aaaaaand then The Derpening happened while I was gone and it just didn’t seem worth it to dig all that back up again.
It’s probably not that surprising given how often I’ve posted in this thread that watching this whole thing go nuclear has been a bit cathartic, lol.
-
@Wizz I suspect more newbies than we will EVER know about had a similarly horrible experience there, whether immediately or much later.

This.
I was puzzling with Zephyr why I didn’t say something when I left the last time, but I think I just couldn’t go through rehashing everything.

I almost didn’t for similar reasons. Not having all that noise is so nice once you’re gone, and talking about it feels like inviting it back in.

Trauma is a shitty, shitty fucking drug. That’s why we didn’t get a thread before. And I’m really fucking sorry that the community has taken this long to get to a place where at least people feel like they can talk about it. So everybody can pat themselves on the back at least once for that shit.
-
@Third-Eye I’ll blame part of it on the game collapsing in 2011 with a regular logon of like… 10 people, and this was after Cujo gave the game to another headwiz to make Shadow of Fear, I think? Not a lot of people active to harass.
Then when they re-opened for Ep 7, people were hankering for sequel stuff and overlooked things. Bit that was also post-WORA, and MSB was less known? I dunno
