Silent Heaven: Small-town Horror RPG

@Jumpscare That’s really encouraging. It was late when I signed on to find…all of that so I think I misinterpreted a few things that were said in our conversation and didn’t get that there had been things the code should have prevented and thought it was a me mistake. It was definitely overwhelming to then find out later that before I could even RP my body had been in a scene and…
It just was definitely not the greatest first impression. I’m really glad to hear that none of that was intended gameplay for a new person.
-
Yeah, I gotta say A+ on how all of this has been handled. It’s really reassuring.
-
Yeah, still not the game for me (I’m not down with any level of having things done to me while I’m offline) but the handling on what appears to specifically be a bug is very positive.
-
Responsive staff, willing to acknowledge mistakes, and implement changes in response to feedback/complaints?
Just… damn.
-
I feel like I should admit that I’ve been following this thread for months and playing there since it opened and this is the first time I realized that it’s Silent Heaven, not Silent Haven.
-
@Vulgar-Boy I also had that same thing happen. A realization when i finally joined the discord that i’d had the name wrong the whole time
-
Still very impressed by this game, as the horror elements are starting to kick up. @Jumpscare is a beast of a coder and a headwiz, and the playerbase is by and large great. Looking forward to seeing the next few phases of the game roll out.

Guys. Gals. People of all genders. It is 3am.
I’m locking the thread for a little bit until the other admin can come look at it.
Chill out.

This is a reminder to please adhere to the rules of engagement for this section of the forum. This is not rough and rowdy. Do not be rough and rowdy.

No one gets to decide another person’s sexuality. No one gets to gatekeep or invalidate another person’s sexuality, or gender expression, or anything of the sort. This is not appropriate at any level. Further actions on this will be grounds for a ban.
-
Accusing a game of bigotry is a big thing to throw around. Come with real receipts, not just because they took disciplinary action against you.

I feel like these posts should also get moved over to the Rough & Rowdy thread.

@HannahBananna Oh, honey, you have no idea. But this isn’t the personal attacks section of the forum.
AND YET you couldn’t resist throwing gasoline on the fire and doing it anyways.

Yeah. I’m of two minds on that myself, personally, which is why I didn’t immediately. Let me temperature check on that.

I could not.

@Tez Silent Heaven seems like a nice little game, honestly. I think the posts should be gently moved, so that new viewers don’t have to scroll through the rowdy content in order to get a sense of “what is this game.”

Agreed. Move the nonsense that barely relates to the game from a disgruntled former player. Keep it around, but it doesn’t need to be here.

For what it’s worth, by the way, I really liked my time at Silent Heaven and always found people very helpful. Jumpscare is good about looking into player complaints and does a good job at resolving things. I kind of bounced off of Silent Heaven because I don’t think RPI is the thing for me these days, but I really respect the work she’s put into it. Aside from the theme and setting, the technical aspects of the game are stellar, that chargen will be burned into my brain (in a good way) for a long time. So, if you haven’t tried it, I’d say give it a go.

Moved a post from HB and a reply from Pavel off to the SH:GGG thread, so if you thought there was one here, you aren’t imagining things. I’m just gaslighting you by moving them.

Going to enthusiastically second this. It didn’t end up being quite my thing, but the technical aspects are amazing, and I love the chargen, as well as things like the journal bit where you could keep staff updated on what your character was doing.

what is an rpi
Roleplay Intensive! It’s usually a MUD or MUD-adjacent game where there are minimal OOC commands for the sake of immersion. You may also not see character names until you engage in an
introducecommand. There are usually other things involved like character occupations, automated economy, items, etc.ETA: On Silent Heaven, for example, there are no channels for speaking, but there is a ‘whispers’ system that allows you to kind of connect to people at a distance. There also isn’t a tell/page system. All of the OOC channels are on a discord, so the game itself is its own experience.
There used to be a game called Towers of Jadri that was a fantasy setting which incorporated a lot of these kinds of systems as well, as well as a MUD called Iconoclast that – while not using introduction commands – was RPI insofar as you had occupations, plots, engagement from that perspective, along with robust clothing and equipment options, mobs that would occasionally attack you, etc.
