@Cobalt said in MU Peeves Thread:
Right after joining three new games I turtled down into a depressive void due to some rl and health issues. And now I’m too ashamed of flaking on people to get back into RP-slash-I have no idea how to get back into crap.
we all got a void, bb.

I am friends with so many flakes
Every time they return I am genuinely delighted to see them though. There is never, ever a time I do not want to welcome back, greet, and RP with my flake friends.
The friend part weighs a lot more than the flake part. RL is a thing, mental stuff is a thing. I’m happy for any time of theirs that I get.
For real, I have zero concept of time when it comes to friendships. Time spent apart just doesn’t register. If you haven’t talked to me for four years, I will not be mad. My reaction will be “Ohhhh, shit, dude! How are you? Where have you been?!” with no anger or disappointment, just excited to see you.
So if you haven’t talked to me since 2014 or whatever, come say hi. I promise it’s fine.

Whenever anyone asks why I haven’t been RPing so much recently, I just point at Baldur’s Gate 3 and suddenly the response is “Oh, that makes sense. See you in a month.”
There’s a reason the phrase “Warcraft widow” existed back in the day.
And before the Warcraft Widow, there was the Everquest Widow.

just don’t ambush her in a page with some ten year old reference
<.<
Give a bitch a break, will you?! I’m old and my mind is going, if there was ever any to begin with.
Seriously, I just didn’t remember your character name and thought you might’ve been one of my creepy stalkers. There’ve been a couple over the years and if they rear their heads…

It’s a general sentiment. I just get annoyed by people who have to be performatively kind/nice.

As a therapist in training (and current grief counsellor), I second this so goddamn firmly. It’s dangerous as hell.

Me: I’m going to RP! starts looking for RP
Outside: lightning strikes right above the house, taking out the power for a moment, and then the internet
Me: …or not.

Quitting games is hard.

please. i am begging people. when new to a game, take a week to get a sense of the culture and if it’s a good fit for you before you do shit that sucks up everyone’s attention and energy, and make sure you even understand the basics of how the game runs and why before you make a thousand suggestions about how to change it.
-
this type of personality is extra wild to me because it’s almost completely just about tone-deaf bragging. y’know, it’s actually more impressive to me when someone can easily navigate a system someone else has made, rather than listening to them improvise “improvements” that are likely more broken in the long run, or even just nakedly of benefit to the person suggesting them.

Today my MUSH peeve is that I just realized it’s silent hEaven and not haven.
But also I’m pretty sure I keep making that realization and forgetting and then finding myself surprised every time. Being old sucks.

@bear_necessities I’ve had that moment like three times myself, personally. I feel you.

Baulders Gate and Genshin Impact are my peeves this month. Literally sucking all my attention from every single thing…

Me. My peeve is me. My attention wanders and I leave folks waiting. Thankfully I mostly do async scenes, but I hate this part about myself.
