@Jennkryst Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this hobby dies in our lifetime but if/when it does, we hopefully all have some fond memories.
Movie theaters are going to die in our lifetime.
MUs definitely will.
But roleplay itself will live on forever.

they wouldn’t be the bulk of what people are running and playing nowadays.
Oh, yes, such wildly successful games that have what, 12 active players who do maybe 3 scenes a week? That’s totally a thriving model for success you have there! No need to ever question it or try to improve! What was I thinking?! Must be the dementia!
Success is determined if everyone is having fun.
There’s this hot new phrase that all the kids are saying these days. “Quality over quantity.”
@RedRocket said in pvp vs pvp:
Oh well, I guess the hobby will just die with us then.
We had a good run! It was fun while it lasted.
@RedRocket said in pvp vs pvp:
I want the next generation to have that same opportunity to find themselves lost in strange new worlds.
Am I wrong? Is there some thriving hub of young people out there playing some game I’ve never heard of?
Yes. As someone stated earlier, they’re all on Discord, JCINK, tumblr, etc.

This is another one that doesn’t really read like Ghost’s MO to me, unless he’s decided to change his personality for like the fifth time. He also never had an issue with PVE games, whatever one can say about his other annoying qualities. But I’ve been wrong before.
I also think that Ghost hates all PBs (including AI, but I could be remembering wrong). But this person has a similar energy.

“wrote a small essay about how I don’t care.”
Stand in front of a mirror and say those words out loud.
Is RedRocket Ghost or their cousin or something? Reminds me of their long posts about how they don’t care and to remind us they left the hobby 40 years ago.
If you were “Harmony” on the Discord RP ‘Shadows on the Strip’ would love to RP with you again!

@KarmaBum “Sexy fireball” makes me think of the succubi(?) that were all fiery, from Oglaf, that Mistress’s apprentice had to apply oil to.
I don’t make the rules for what my brain does.
It reminds me of the old Bloodninja texts.

@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’.
@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. 
If I want PVP, I’ll boot up Rivals or something similar.
@ten You can tell my em dashes are legit because I always use them — incorrectly.
