I find it very telling when people make a policy of not posting. Maybe they realized that when they post they are telling on themselves. It’s always my favorite when someone goes to post and just makes themselves look worse.

This puzzles me.

If game-runners make a policy forbidding others to post, I find it telling.

But the majority of people in the hobby neither read nor post to forums about the hobby. I don’t think it’s because they know they’ll look bad, they just don’t, uh. Want to.

Do you mean people who have a rant in private but keep it private? Or?

@Gashlycrumb I mean when people make it a policy not to post. That’s it. It’s not complicated.

People can and do rant in private, or in other semi-public forums, discords, reddits. Whatever! That’s all fine. People can say what they want, when they want, where they want. That includes the right to silence, too. No one has to post here, there, or anywhere. If someone doesn’t want to, then please, don’t.

It’s when you make it a policy to police what staff or players on your game can do that it becomes sticky.

If you go back ten or so years ago, there were definitely places wherein if they discovered you had posted on WORA (or wherever), they would flay you alive, tar you, feather you, fire you into the sea, and then ban you.

it isn’t that this changed it’s just that nobody ever comes to dump things anymore

everybody either silently deals with it until they can’t or just leaves bc they know exposing like even the absolute worst behaviors won’t accomplish anything and literally no one will care who didn’t already

Firan! I got you, old man.

Well, that one’s a gimme. If you can think of a stupid policy, Firan did it first and worst.

Firanites don’t have buttholes, remember.

This is kink erasure!

Wuff

Yes. That is literally why that call was made. They wanted to avoid people using buttsecks to avoid running the breeding code.

I believe the question was trying to differentiate between personal “policy” that one holds for themselves and a game’s official policy that is enforced against others.

@Pavel Missed opportunity to include majik anal mpreg opportunities. VtR Dhamphir code, let’s gooooo!

@Pavel

Indeed, because the two sentances following are about people making themselves look bad.

BurnNotice

@Pavel I never played on Firan but I’ve heard so many of the jaw-dropping stories from people who did at the time. There really should be a Firan thread. That lore should live on for gawkers of the future. War stories.

Pavel

@BurnNotice At this stage a lot of the memories are recalled only as the latent misfiring of neurons long deadened by time, apathy, and the need to remember an increasing number of passwords and names of parents of children’s friends.

@Pavel lmao. What the fuck kind of game was this.

Snackness

@Pavel Damn, I just thought they didn’t want to deal with poop!

the more

Pavel

@Snackness In general, if you could trace a policy decision back, somehow, to fucking then that was probably at least part of the rationale.

… WAT?!

… Did Firanites not have mouths, either? Seems oral sex could be used to avoid breeding code, too.

@STD Babies are grown in bellies, and that is whee food goes once you use your mouth to eat it. Ergo, mouth babies are just as valid as butt babies, especially since this was that game with telepregger-nobody-even-needed-to-touch creeper power.

I’ve been too focused on space trucking and stealth bombing in Elite, time to once again brainstorm lords & ladies IN SPAAAAACE!

Dune, Elite Dangerous, Lancer, the space mech offshoot of Girl by Moonlight for magical girls… whatever.
