One time @Roz’s character unironically played Wonderwall to my character on an acoustic guitar.

Be flexible. Don’t look for reasons to say no to player ideas. Look for ways to make their ideas work within the mechanics of your game world.

@Gashlycrumb said in MU Peeves Thread:

Pretend you don’t know that people can see you on +where RPing

Not to discount everything you just said because it sounds quite specific, but game admin are allowed to rp, they aren’t obligated to defend that time, and anyone who thinks otherwise can go fuck themselves.

Imo if request backlog becomes too big for the expectation a game has set for its players, that’s when you temporarily shut the door on new apps and/or get more GMs. These games are too damn big for one main staffer and a bunch of other admin who are spread thin on every other game.

@bear_necessities might have to rewatch everything she’s ever done this weekend

@Yam A maximum word count limit for written backgrounds is the way to go. It’s great that you wrote that novel. Please send the link and I will consider purchasing. Summarize who your character is in a reasonable way.

Unrelated to the above opinion, I don’t think Arx should be our metric for OC apps. This is not intended as a critique. There are some things that game runners will be interested in policing, and some things that they aren’t.

i grabbed t’mas off the roster. he looked fun. anyone who wants to play adjacent to me, hmu. (as a child?? or a wingrider?)

One of his kids IS on the roster.

@catzilla I think the recent banning post indicates the general community stance on that.

@Meg said in Discussion: On Dragon Wings:

I had a whole game concept based around that once, but since I lack follow through-- It’s cool to see someone else doing it too.

Was that the matrilineal thing? I remember that concept and still think it would be really cool.

@hellfrog I’m glad it was just a misunderstanding. And for clarification, we are fighting the dragons.

@hellfrog said in Discussion: On Dragon Wings:

dragon riders but instead of being cool and fighting each other they are kind of like lawnmowers burning caustic braum hair out of the atmosphere iirc and also if the dragons have sex their riders have sex

Not sure why I caught these strays in 2026 but I’ll just be in my lane having fun, dude.

Kizraeth clutches in late January; Coraneth in early March. That leaves plenty of time to establish a Candidate character and build up a bit of a story arch leading up to trying to impress a dragon of your very own. If you’re not confident on theme, imo going this route can be a smoother introduction.

Current plot threads involve the development of rival factions of dragonriders (PVE).

@hellfrog I think I tried to do a rewatch like ten years ago and couldn’t or wouldn’t. Mean middle school girl go live in computer. What a timestamp, though. Internet trolls from the 1900s.
