When someone presents a screed about how they have been so mistreated in a game’s community and how people have betrayed them and talked bad about them…

But conveniently leave out how they were engaging in at least one nasty whisper campaign against a player that chose not to engage in romantic/TS RP with them. And how they have also weaponized their personal feelings about players to make reports against them.

Cool, cool.

literally no one in human history has been good enough at describing dick to put that much effort into

Ugh. The worst thing is I went: Huh, wonder if that is X or Y or Z or —

There shouldn’t be a list in my head.

I’m the complete opposite of you. I’m always in the dark about these things, 9.99 times out of ten.

This means I want the deets, @Herja.

I just assume it’s me.

@Herja If it is who I think it is, given that I went out of my way to always be nice, and include them, make space for them in an org and all the rest…I must admit I am pretty done with them given their silence - and even celebration - of my getting bullshit punishments.

@Prototart People with paper thin IC/OOC boundaries do wild things when their feelings get hurt.

IMHO dick isn’t that great to describe, there’s a reason we keep wanting to hide it inside other things.

I just jumped to 7 on the Kinsey scale.

Now and again just slammed full force with how deeply you just can’t and it’s not anything specific. Just. A. Big. Mental. Nope.

That is how my whole year has been going this year. I have to push myself to get online and just RP or have that meeting or do that thing I really wanted to do.

This year has been One. Big. Mental. Nope.

Aww. My first peeve in this shiny new place.

I feel like I need a cupcake with a candle or something!

So, the peeve - crawling out from the wreckage of the past year (shit, it’s only been nine months… whatever, six/half dozen…) to toe-in-the-water some games, and having the first one I manage to get into show itself as having a shitty playerbase two days later.

Gee, I wonder why you only have 16 people, max. Could it be that 12.5% of them are dicks to new players?

When people try to make you choose which character THEY are going to play in a scene. This is sort of a long-standing peeve of mine, and it’s not a big deal, but it’s irritating every time.

I don’t remember your alts. I’m never going to remember your alts. I barely remember you as a player, ninety percent of the time. If you say you want to RP, and I say sure, don’t come back at me with, “Which alt do you want?” because it’s not my character and I don’t care. Pick someone you want to play! I’m not the boss of you!

And, honestly, more than half the time I’m in the position of coming up with the idea, coming up with the set, and asking me to ALSO PICK WHO YOU’RE EVEN PLAYING is just…too damn much. Have mercy.

@Pyrephox Decision fatigue is a real thing and it’s exhausting.

Pavel

I might just be old and set in my ways but frankly, if my character (X) has already RP’d extensively with your character (Y) then I don’t want X meeting your alt (Z). I don’t want to have to split my brain to remember which alt of yours knows what about my character, thank you.

@Pavel This might be a M* culture thing.

It was very common on Pern games for all my alts to know (and probably plow) all your alts.
