When Staff came to speak to her she did not hide, nor keep information from them. The thing I wonder is how can they ban someone for avoiding conflict from someone known to be a problem. Yes she did hide herself, but is that in itsself worth a full gameban?
Hiding yourself from players you have a no contact with in order to RP with them is something I think deserves a gameban, regardless of how open you are with staff.
It really feels like Ganymede has just decided to let Derp drive it into the ground out of some need to avoid losing face from reversing a decision.
Well, I’m reducing my MSB activity to lurking now. Gany just basically said that the only person who needed to be apologized to on MSB for what happened was Derp.
I get two things from reading stuff from this thread.
That I definitely am not the target audience for Lords & Ladies roleplay.
That Arx, even with all of it’s trouble throughout its history, is a pretty good example of ‘doing it right’ in our hobby.
Congrats to all you Arx players and staff for doing cool stuff.
@Cygnus said in The 3-Month Players:
Without PVP acting as a failsafe, these players often cause games to fail because no one can stand not being able to meaningfully stand up to the bully.
The failsafe against toxic players should be staff action. Going PVP just because a player is toxic seems toxic in it’s own right.
Starting a new thread, for a new year.
First up, and this one hit me hard, David Lynch, legendary director of such weirdness as Eraserhead, Twin Peaks, and the original 1980s version of Dune.
Please stop. If you actually care, stop, step away, and come back in a few days or even a week or two. You’re making yourself look bad with each new post.
@somasatori Keep this up and people are going to expect you to start a game. 
Also: I can’t make anyone else on this forum switch topics from your dumpster fire of a character to the dumpster fire of Eddie and the people on Staff that did toxic shit to you. Mostly because you keep running back in here and throwing gasoline on your character dumpster fire and making it a much bigger, brighter spectacle than the other.

Most people want to be special in some way, sometimes tactfully and sometimes… not. I think we all get to have more fun when we’re not veering aggressively away from being “cringe”.
The vast majority of players in our hobby understand how to make unique special characters without trying their damnedest to drive it into everyone’s faces at 100 miles an hour.
@labsunlimited If I were to do Vampire in ND, I’d make it where the game represented the entire state, ignore the factions (so Cam / Anarch / Sabbat for OWoD and the Covenants for NWoD) and just have it where the players are the few Vampires roaming the state, and occasionally they gather in the only Elysium in the state to resolve disputes and stuff. Maybe one Prince for the entire State if you really want some level of organization.
WoD North Dakota would be interesting for some spheres and not for others. It would work well for Werewolf and Mage, but to do Vampire there, you’d have to increase the populations and sizes of the major cities to support Vampires, and by doing so, eliminate one of the unique aspects of North Dakota as a state, namely the relative isolation and small populations of the communities there.

I guess I’m finally finishing that post about one of trans ally and author of Animorphs Katherine Applegate’s other series, Everworld.
I remember that book series. I read the first book, it reminded me of that old Canadian kid’s show The Odyssey in a way, and I didn’t finish the series because the first book did nothing for me. It seemed well written, but it just didn’t hook me.
I remember a game in the late 90s that was set in a weird small town, and if anyone asked if the game was set in X state, the answer was always yes.

EverWorld of Darkness crossover setting
My brain went in several directions:
A crossover of Everquest and World of Darkness, where players combine WoD Spheres with Everquest classes in a bizarre gothic punk fantasy world of grindy adventure.
A crossover of Everway and World of Darkness, where players make their WoD characters using image cards and then traverse the planes having weird adventures.
A crossover setting between all three major versions of WoD (OWoD / NWoD / CoD) where the three realities fight to ensure their world is the one that survives an oncoming cataclysm that will leave only one standing.
@somasatori So when is the soft launch and what California city is it set in?

The other meaning of the acronym “CBT”
Classic Battletech?
Yeah, if you search this forum for Seanan McGuire or even go back and search MSB for it, you’ll understand why you’re probably not going to get an answer to that question.
I kind of like how Expedition 33 did it. Instead of New Game+, you just get a bunch of previously locked areas in the world unlocked and new challenges to explore to get even more lore about the game world.
@Prototart said in Missed Settings:
anyway there’s a dumb comic i love called IDES OF BLOOD and it’s about Julius Caesar conquering Dacia because vampires are real and then there are openly vampires everywhere in Rome and that should be a WoD game
You mean this?
