As a 42 year old man who loved Cadbury Cream Eggs, I noticed this all kicked up the week after Easter. I really hope this isn’t the Easter Bunny with an egg fetish. Were baskets mentioned at any time?

@ThisGuy Aoa was kinda like one of those places on Tiger King. It was Shoddy and Shady as hell. The owner and a chunk of the staff was nuts but everyone one was having a good time or so it seemed. Then you start peeling everything back you find sexual harassment and abuse.

Please, Please, please listen to Zephyr and all the others. (Especially the Public Defender.) I went from interested in the game to hard pass over the under age thing. It will save yourself and your staff lots of problems.

If you’re on the fence please go read some of the threads in rough and ready. There are some very well written accounts and testimony from site members explaining why it shouldn’t be done.

Let’s not add another generation of mushers to those testimonies.

@Pavel. What weirdo would want to do that?

That whole thing was bananas.

I feel like this is turning into Macha and co clanking glass coke bottles together and calling out, “BMD come out to play!”

@Pacha said in Numetal/Retromux:

Whoever this supposedly “fine” head staffer is, it seems like they are fine hiring some pretty questionable staff, as long as the leopards aren’t (yet) eating their face.

Right! The head staffer/owner of the game sets the culture of the game. If they’re a sex pest than chances are they will hire staffers that are sex pests or let sex pests get away with stuff on their games.

@Anony-Mouse

Sometimes we forget that the start of this post was bringing to light the sexual harassment by some of the staff and allowed to happen by Cujo (or perhaps silently encouraged and observed by him if the accusations either in this thread or another location are true.)

I think the events you reference show it’s shows the disfunction and playing players/factions that Cujo and Banshee liked. It made people feel insecure and unsupported on all sides. Which allowed a breeding ground for the deeper problem to spread.

I’m quite sure if you were to talk to Kylo’s player and Oran’s player they would have similar feelings about the event. I’m just guessing but as people were oocly played against one another never knowing their standings with staff. I once encountered a player on another mush that mentioned they didn’t stay on AoA cause Merek was hot shit and how could they compare to him? I think the player had issued with him on another game.

It’s almost like we (the player base) was their own little Sith Academy. They ignored us, until they didn’t to hand out random brutal punishment, or to randomly favor one us for no reason at all. It breed competition, It isolated, and left us to fend for ourselves. If that’s not how you get Sith, then I don’t know what else would do it.

Xaj the annoyed, hoarder of Korean Beef Bowls and car doors.

Wow 2805 is a lot of +noms. It’s not 3089 +nom impressive.

@Krautistanian Can we call the usurper the Queen till he gets 3090 +noms? He’s wearing a liars crown till then. With the current player base he’s going to be waiting awhile. Till Cujo institutes 5 +noms for every +nom or something equally dumb.

@CuriousGamer. Jokes on them/her. Somebody was probably already paging me that I’m the worst, so that doesn’t phase me.

@Nobody-0 Thanks for the heads up. I’m luckily not within her grasp for vengeance. I’m not on CA and kinda just idle in general.

Do we need to open a post for Mal and crew? I know Cujo and Mal share some traits.* I don’t know if we’re doing a disservice to those that went through the special hell that was Serenity mush, but didn’t ride the shit show amusement ride that is Aoa.

*Source: I was on both game and interacted with both. Please don’t make pick my favorite turd

@Warlander Cujo going to Cujo. Banshee got to Banshee. Hadrix is sexual harassing a couch. Aryn got to be the prettiest and most special. Everyone else are just NPCs.

Gawd @ashkuri and @Hobbie could build and run a better sw game if they it built out of the old Elendor database. Then for theme only read an issue of a Star Wars comic, saw half of Acolyte, and @Zephyr explain the Ewok movies to them with sock puppets.

"Note* Nothing wrong with Elendor, It’s just was Lord of the Rings.

@GF obi-wan and Anakin weren’t exactly underage Padawans in the movie.

Merek wasn’t enabled on Aoa. If anything he was belittled and ignored. I don’t know about him being a sex pest there or other places.

@Zephyr They’re going to have bad actors show up whatever they do. What they’re doing now is enabling/empower them. So when things go bad they will be in a weak spot.

I wonder if this is a case of ‘the road to hell is paved with good intentions’ or if it’s a case of ‘the call is coming from inside the staff lounge.’

@Wizz @mietze was spot on. A cognitive impaired adult is an adult. Inappropriate behavior is still wrong and should be stopped and not acceptable. Though maybe they’re not as fair game for ridicule afterwards. It is punching down but neither behavior is acceptable.

@Pavel A pyramid scheme is word people are looking for. Examples include Vampire Clans; Cobra from Larry Hama’s G.I.Joe comic book; Amway; Ponzi schemes. The protection racket that Girl Scout is running in my neighborhood is a completely different thing. Which reminds me the first is coming up I’m a box short on short breads can someone front me some cash?
