Seeing cool new characters that look like they might be fun to RP with but not wanting to instantly PM them and come off creepy/overexcited/stalkery/etc.

So even if @De-Villefort is right and all genres except for sci-fi and cyberpunk are filled with nothing but bad terrible people…

So what?

Sometimes it’s fun to play the villain. Do you think that any actor that gets the role of a villainous type absolutely hates their job while doing so? Do you think Alan Rickman or Christopher Lee cried in anguish every morning they woke up before going off to play their various famous villainous roles?

hi I’m new to the clique. what time are our weekly meetings on who to dogpile that week? I’m also signing on up bringing cups and ice.

@ten You can tell my em dashes are legit because I always use them — incorrectly.

I like a good meowdy

Conspiracy theory time.

What if Ganymede wanted to end MSB ALL ALONG?! Her RL has gotten so busy that she couldn’t control MSB with so many members as it was but didn’t want to let go of her online authoritah so she hired someone that she knew would be divisive and would let to at least half of the members would be banned or leave on their own so she wouldn’t have to do so much work but still appear cool calm collected catbot (BECAUSE THAT PERSONALITY IS SO FUNNY!) and it worked out enough because she’s cold emotionless lawyer who doesn’t have time for FEELINGS and admitting to making a mistake is a fate far worse than DEATH!

pls feel free to ignore this message, brought to you by bored people at work sitting in boring meetings and already mentally clocked out for the 4-day weekend.

@Cygnus I want conflict to come from the environment and NPCs. I don’t want to worry about my character getting ganked because another player thinks it’s fun.

If I want PVP, I’ll boot up Rivals or something similar.

@KarmaBum said in Bannings:

Also that Derp is a misogynist prick who lacks the self-awareness to realize he’s the problem, not all of us.

Derp is the embodiment of ‘she shouldn’t have been wearing that dress’.

@hellfrog What do you expect from a forum run by a dude that has said in threads regarding similar topics that “maybe she shouldn’t have gone down that alley” and other such gross things?

@catzilla said in MU Peeves Thread:

Personally I’d see it as, ‘hey this is a closed scene and we don’t want other PCs randomly joining just because it’s on grid’.

Being off grid in RP Rooms doesn’t stop everybody though. Also, some games have commands that make it very apparent that the scene is closed.

It could just be me but isn’t joing an RP Room uninvited like, universally unallowed?

@MisterBoring said in MU Peeves Thread:

It sends a signal to me at least, that staff is fully willing to abandon major projects on a whim and aren’t super dedicated to the game, or at least have changed course on how they approach it.

I dunno, that’s a big leap to make. Personally I’d see it as, ‘hey this is a closed scene and we don’t want other PCs randomly joining just because it’s on grid’.

all that jazz

@Taika They are on a PVP crusade right now.

@Cygnus said in The 3-Month Players:

Anyway, the laws of FAFO are a great equalizer. If everyone has a gun, everyone is a lot more polite.

What about my character that doesn’t have a gun getting ganked just for funsies?

@Cygnus Maybe it was a different Isrieal. The one I’m looking for was a Changeling.

@Cygnus I want conflict to come from the environment and NPCs. I don’t want to worry about my character getting ganked because another player thinks it’s fun.
