    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      Today’s peeve is:

      If you have played somewhere for years and you’re not happy with it anymore, by all means, I will listen to you vent. I get it.

      If you just joined a game and all you want to do is bitch about it…

      maybe…

      simply do not play there?

      If it helps people orient themselves in the scene and approach others, IDGAF about walking in and introductions.

      What I hate is when I set and then the person poses in and doesn’t interact with me. Get the fuck out with that what are you even here in this scene for, why did I set for you, stop being the worst.

    • RE: Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo

      The facts are what they are and they’re never going to change. It’s a Star Wars game! They’re doing stuff. Some is ok. Some is really stupid. The good guys and/or bad guys have the upper hand this week. There’s some spaceships and some guns. If you are unlucky enough to have an issue with someone, especially a harassment issue, no one will help you.

      That’s the only thing to say about this place. It does not matter what the theme posts are. It never did. I think it’s ok if we don’t give them free publicity for every single bbpost.

    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      In this the year of our lord 2025, why are people still allowing bad actors in their game community? Why is there a concern with “we have to be fair” to people who are toxic to staff and other players, totally obnoxious, or otherwise a bad fit? It’s a mush, not a constitutional right, if they’re no good for the community then EVICT THEM.

    • RE: Good things in Mushing

      Today someone AMBUSHED ME (idk if you’re on the forums but you know who you are if you read this) with a link to a website for a game I played around 2012-2018. It was run by a head wiz who became a close IRL friend and who passed away in 2019. I had no idea the site was even still up.

      What a kick in the feels. All the old logs are there, and our snapshots of funny ooc moments, and our pictures and playlists. There are lots of captures of jokes and stories and fun moments of my friend who’s no longer with us, and other friends as well, some I still talk to, some I don’t.

      I am so grateful and I am so sad. MUSH is such a strange medium in the way it can feel so all-encompassing at the time, and then enough time goes by and it’s just a little snapshot of how things were, and who you were then, and all the fun times you had writing stories with other people way too late into the night.

      Really, really grateful and sad.

    • RE: Social/Bar RP

      I feel like the gist here is “Social rp is fine if it doesn’t suck” which… I mean yeah, that’s true of any form of rp, isn’t it?

    • RE: But Why

      This thread has everything. False dichotomies. Hyperbole. Hot takes on literature. Viking hygiene. MU RP is Dying™️. Class struggle. Book recommendations. Furries.

    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      Playing a young/teen character is less about nailing the slang du jour and more about being vulnerable, inexperienced, confident about things you have no real clue about, unconfident about things that really are okay, feeling Big Emotions and maybe not knowing what to do with them, and discovering Nietzsche and then explaining it to people 25 years older than you.

      I think it’s tricky for players because believable teens get so much “wrong” as they flail into adulthood (and players don’t like to be wrong), not so much because it’s hard to know when not to say yeet.

    • RE: AI PBs

      I hate AI PBs. I hate them so much. All the reasons @Roz said, plus the fact that I am somewhat face-blind and AI created PBs are so generic that it’s nearly impossible for me to grasp the likeness in a meaningful way. They’re just face soup to me.

      Again because face-blind, my PBs are actors I can recognize and who stand out to me either by unusual appearance or by “this person is a lunatic” vibe or both.

    • RE: An Arx Peeve Thread

      Not a peeve and I have full respect for demanding RL, and RL coming first.

      But

      I miss Scraps.

    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      I don’t like it when I’m meeting a new character and their way of engaging with me is that they will magically solve all of my IC problems. Like I see you are doing a task? I will do the task for you right now. You mention you can’t find a Whatever lately? I happen to have three Whatevers right here with me at this moment.

      It’s not the worst trait. I just don’t like it.

      @Floof Just reply to “We need to talk” with “Yeah, we do.”

      Now they are ALSO anxious.

    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      This subject has come up with a few people lately, but the real peeve is how much garbage media/tv/movies I have consumed solely because my played-by was in it.

    • RE: Pax Republica - Discussion

      Star Wars theme attracts people who are into all kinds of weird NSFW rp. And more power to them, if that’s your thing and everyone is a consenting adult IC/OOC, awesome.

      As a veteran of Many Years in the Star Wars trenches though: please do not allow underaged anything. Not players, not characters, nothing. I had to deal with somebody on AOA who tried to RP “underaged sex slave” content at me and I’m still not ok, and that was just the character, never mind player stuff.

      I beg you, New Star Wars MU. No underaged anything.

    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      @junipersky You should ask them though! Every single person who RPs enjoys hearing “I like your writing and want to hang out.” It’s nice to not be “needed” for some kind of function, and I think you might be surprised how receptive people are to scheduling a low key play date.

    • RE: Consensus on Roster vs OC vs Mix

      @SirKay if you don’t have the bandwidth to give game content to OCs, just don’t have OCs. Building second class players into your game design is asking for a headache.

    • RE: Player Ratios

      IMO dealing with points, levels, ranks, tokens, achievements, etc are just levels of bureaucracy that take ST time from actually doing the things that points, levels, ranks, tokens, and achievements are meant to unlock.
