      @Clarion Two different characters were in the same scene, and suddenly started having incidents of posing AS each other (like a pose for Character A coming from Character B, then being deleted and reposed properly from Character A), one responding to a page sent to the other, etc. No shared IP, but one of the two using a VPN. One of the characters had also been running scenes and plots for the other, funneling equipment to them, etc.

        @Roz …oh. Well that’s much less harmless. 😐

        I thought it was just somebody having solo pretendy funtimes playing their Character A meeting and hanging out with their Character B. Not something I’d do on a game, but sure, whatever.

        Pretending they weren’t playing two characters and hiding IP addresses and mixing up poses and funneling stuff back and forth is… not good. I will take the radical stance that it is, in fact, bad.

          In my usual paranoia, I would pose at nothing randomly on the off chance there was a staff lurking invisible in it.

          I used to @sweep every single room I entered for a long time. Generally it was the only way they’d show up.

            Having seen some similar scenes play out on another game with a pc that didn’t really seem to do anything or rp on their own except a posted scene with the main character and who was definitely full of helpful merits by the same player I kinda wonder if this has been a thing before.

            I agree that if there weren’t mechanical benefits involved I would think its weird but whatever. Its a shame to cheat that stupidly though I mean isn’t the point to play with others/utilize their strengths/ect.

              I totally saw this happen on a Pern game once in a room that I had +watch on. I think they were trying to hide it? But most people had figured out they were the same person. So it was harmless but generally kind of odd.

                I notice when I ST for myself the players never go after the wrong red herrings so I must be doing something right.

                  Logging off in the middle of a conversation to be sure your character gets the last word.

                  Don’t do that.

                      Posting a three paragraph rant yelling at someone and then immediately running out of the room. Why do people do this?

                          @Juniper Idk, but it’s nice of them to let you know you shouldn’t play with them again!

                            Agreed.

                            It’s really funny though - in real life nobody would ever just stand there and listen politely while you go on your ten minute bitching monologue. What kind of exotic paralysis is keeping my character from interrupting or walking away?

                            This isn’t how conversations work, people!

                                  @ten i don’t really like pizza that much, tbh. i’m surprised i have not been kicked out of chicago(land) yet.

                                  every time i mention it, my friends from chicago get mortally offended.

                                      Yeah, because it’s not pizza. It’s soup in a bread bowl.

                                        Watching people yeet themselves into the sun. It’s awkward for all of us.
