      @labsunlimited This applies to all MUs that base their mechanics off a tabletop game, which is not uncommon.

      Neither of the Star Trek game systems (FASA, Last Unicorn) were designed for games with dozens or a hundred PCs, but we played 'em and they didn’t WoD out like WoD games do.

        Honestly my limited experience of Retro did remind me a great deal of old WoD MUs so in that instance of being ‘retro,’ it’s doing an excellent job

        I swear I never saw these WoD MUs that were any different.

          if a player is being disruptive about their very special unique character, the issue is the disruption, not having a special unique character.

            @Roz Nuh uh, the issue is that I didn’t come up with the idea first to show how unique and cool and mature I am.

                However, there is also a majority or vocal-enough-to-seem-majority of players who do not appear to understand that not every unique special character is doing that.

                Everybody has their own point at which a unique enjoyable character becomes a cringeworthy Gary Stu / Mary Sue, and very few of us in the hobby likely have the same level of special before hitting the cringe zone.

                  @MisterBoring Yes indeed. And for entirely too many people, that point is “When it’s not played by me or one of my personal friends.”

                    re: special snowflake characters

                    There are two north stars for Mushing

                    1. Don’t be boring
                    2. Don’t be a dick

                    If you can’t figure out how to do 1 without doing 2 then you’re going to get mocked.
