@JennkrystSpeaking of 15 years in appearance. Cujo is completely okay, on a sex pest and TS-ridden game such as AoA, with allowing underage Characters to exist.
I’ll let your imagination ruminate over that one.
Zephyr was the only one who within recent memory would not stand for such shinanigans and corrected past approved characters who were under the age of 18.I distinctly recall one player who played a former slave who was possibly a prostitute for some time before she escaped. While she was a teenager. Yes, this can happen IRL, but it’s really a bad thing to have on a game people mostly play to get away from RL for a while. I don’t know who reported her because she brought this up during RP, but she never was banned that I know of. She might’ve had to rewrite her backstory, which had previously been approved by staff (likely Cujo, as it predates Hadrix’s staffification).
And now Zephyr’s gone. The floodgates have truly been flung wide.
Yeah this has probably happened more than a couple of times over the years but in one case I know that a female character’s “services” were sold for IC credits to others by her owner, and from what I heard (from the player herself) it was pretty hardcore slave fetish type stuff. There’s a very active xxx-mush component to aoa just under the surface. There are multiple players that keep harems and recruit noobs to join them, slave-prostitute rings, and worse. People do what they’ll do behind closed doors, and private (And consensual) TS is not wrong, but aoa’s sex pest culture is just the tip of this iceberg… There’s a lot more hidden beneath.
what the fuck
and i’m reminded of an earlier post in this thread about underage characters existing, and i’m even more like
what in the absolute fuck

I was looking for an appropriately humorous meme image to post here–maybe the one about “what the Kentucky Fried fuck”–but honestly, humor isn’t appropriate. This is gross and fuck those guys for introducing sex crimes to Star Wars. I used to watch these movies with my mom, you know? We’d bond over renting a VCR and a copy of Star Wars, and these human-shaped piles of crusty socks have to go and be creeps about it.

Yeah, my thought when I first learned. It’s not very visible, and from what I was told the usual suspects (and not talking Hadrix here because I never heard his name connected with this, but the known sex pests on the game) were the “clients”, but it was there. Also Nar Shaddaa is the drop-off point for almost all noobs, so the sex pests kind of congregate there to intercept new female characters and see if they can maneuver them towards their ships and eventual nakedness. It’s a Sex Panther thing for them, “60% of the time, it works every time!”
What the fuck? This is exactly like the MUD i used to play, i thought mushing was better than this.

In general mushing sex pests tend to be more oblique or private about it. Still not good, obviously, but far easier to miss.

Info.
Maelstrom has a character in Clan Kora with Hadrix. They also have alts that are married to each other.
Keep this in mind when contemplating the truthfulness/effectiveness of any of her announcements.
-
@Das-Auto Huh. Wonder if Maelstrom is Sumi.

I think it is, just not there. What we’re seeing is the hobby’s low. I can kind of half respect the XXX mushes out there, at least they advertise what they’re all about. This is more like the lair of a trapdoor spider.

I mean, not to be that weirdo, but as long as everyone involved consented to the situation, meh?
Obviously yeet the jerks if there was OOC pressure involved, but aside from that…

I’m not trying to be a downer but these guys aren’t the ones who introduced sex crimes to Star Wars.
You know how in the third movie there was a Twi’lek girl dancing and when she tried not to get manhandled by Jabba, he murdered her? And how Leia was in a metal bikini and strangled Jabba with his own chain?
Sex crimes have always been an unfortunate part of Star Wars, and especially in the expanded universe. Twi’lek society is literally based around slavery, especially selling Twi’lek girls to men, because human men find them exotic.
So absolutely blame these jackasses for glorifying it, but George Lucas introduced sex crimes to Star Wars a loooong time ago… which is why it attracts so many creepers.

She is not. Sumi does not have a staff alt.
Update. I now have receipts of Maelstrom contradicting her own post. DM if you want them.

@Adora look its actually very rude of you to remind me of scenes id forgotten, in future please just agree with me even when im wrong

Dramatically speaking, Oola was there to show the danger of denying Jabba anything, and highlight the danger Leia was later in. None of the above was a good thing, but it made sense in the context of a high octane adventure story, and accentuated Jabba’s foulness.
On AoA, it’s more like Mandalorians (and Mandalorian imitators, depending on who you talk to) waiting to club unsuspecting female PCs and drag them into their starships.
-
@Anony-Mouse I’m not arguing that there’s differences between the way the sex crimes are portrayed and the story behind them, just pointing out that the Star Wars universe is full of horrifying misogyny and sex crimes from its outset.

@GF Stop quoting my mother.

Yet… LOL
I believe Maelstrom is Valeska/Ulani/Xavier. I would host events sometimes, but she’d rarely show up. Conversely, she would seemingly always show up to Aryn and Bors’ (or their Alts stuff) like clockwork. She was always on Velsaka and doing Kora things. I don’t think she missed a single Kora event.
This tracks for her as a person. Often described as flakey. She showed up in the middle of an event and got upset she couldn’t jump in (Mind you, I didn’t say she couldn’t she just had trouble with the continuity of it all.) Kind of had a mental breakdown (I don’t know if she was trying to emotionally manipulate me or not into feeling bad that there was a miscommunication on the time the event started or not.) And left, then came back, then left again. Clearly flustered over the whole thing. Though, she ended up apologizing afterward. We all have bad days.
She pretty much kept the Sith going with events, though few and far between. Probably the least crappy out of the new hires… still not great though. Clearly.

So char logins are down to 36, that’s the lowest I’ve seen them on this game - so looks like the word of mouth (and silent bannings) may be having an affect!
But wait, before you hit the abandoned ship button, there’s a post about making player complaints! (Does it matter if you make a player complaint if noone is around to do something about it? Like if a tree falls in a forest and noone is there, does it make a sound?)
-
“staff is dedicated to mediating and helping seek resolutions”
Do they think people don’t understand what this means?
Everything else aside, YOU CANNOT FUCKING MEDIATE BETWEEN A SEXUAL HARASSOR AND THEIR VICTIM. There is no appropriate resolution to be sought beyond GET RID OF THE PREDATOR.
that’s not how this works. that’s not how ANY of this works.
“have staff and the predator badger you until you either withdraw your complaint or go away” is what this post invites people to do.
I’m sure people are totally going to line up to be told they’re too sensitive, that Hadrix was joking, that he didn’t KNOW they were uncomfortable, and also it’s just a game why are you taking it so seriously/personally, and how he has a wife and she likes being talked to like that so it can’t be sexual harassment, and it was just his CHARACTER he’s a nice guy, and anyway he invested so much OOC time and so many IC resources in your character and it’s pretty ungrateful/scummy for you to have been leading him on if this is how you’re gonna be. seems like you led him on to get the stuff, and then once you got the stuff you put in a complaint so you get to keep it, no consequences. that’s cheating! So from now on, you’re not allowed to be in any scenes with him, and if you’re somewhere and he shows up, you need to excuse yourself, because you’re the one with the problem. fucking hysterical women.
$1 says that if any apology is offered, it includes the words “I’m sorry that you”

Mediating also requires, at minimum, training in and for it to be a neutral party. Based on this thread, I’m not sure a single staff member of AoA could be a neutral party.
Additionally for mediation to work both sides need to agree to it, actively seek it as an issue and want to see resolution to it. So often it gets offered as a method to resolve issues in the workplace when the other person doesn’t see an issue with their behaviour and what caused the issue.
Anyway. I’m not sure what resolution a sexual predator would see to their behaviour as they are so far beyond help and need yeeting rather than a sit down chat with their victims.
