@MisterBoring The people stressed are the ones trying to maintain their ethics. But I respect and exhort that. What’s the alternative, spreading cheeks for our AI masters?

How can I solve a problem in a complicated way that’s already been solved two simple ways 40 years ago?

@Pavel This times 1,000!

@Evilgrayson Role players are bonkers. RPG players are bonkers. WoD fans are bonkers. Add the anonymity of nick names and you wind up with an abusers paradise.

Staff are simply blind to too much (the nature of MU*), and can only react, because nobody wants them proactively violating privacy. When there’s a proper shadow society being maintained OOC, more organized and longstanding than a game, good luck.

It took me about 15 years to figure out this mix is bad for me. I’m sorry for your experience, truly. I was gutted my last time MUSHing, and called it quits. The circumstances bore comical similarities to your tale. Hugs for y’all.

@Pavel Let’s name the phenomenon Dead Telnet Theory.

Rest in peace, queen.

@Gashlycrumb On the other hand I met you on GoB and you were such a lovely person in my life during a time when few could show understanding. So yes there was lots of pain and stupidity but there was also light and smiles.

@TNP I will give my kitty many extra hugs and kisses today to honor the love your little one gave you. My heart broke reading all this, just know there’s so much more love and friends waiting for you in this world.

Time to inhabit that energy. Act locally, speak globally, lead with love and stay strong and true.

@Raistlin As a jaded old crum bum, sincerely wishing y’all the best!️

@Pavel “No” buttholes?
Skill issue.

@Mushling-0 The only thing crazier than Polk paying to be tolerated is that he’s done it twice in the 2 years I’ve known about him. The only thing crazier than that is that it worked twice.

@GF We all know who it is lol

@Roz I once set up my action-PVP MMO keyboard layout such that I only had to use the mouse to click on quest objects. All my movement was on my numkeys. I felt your post in my bones, fam.

@Solstice On a long enough timeline all cars get an LS. On a long enough timeline, all gun play becomes TF2’s Scout.

Well I’m about 75 hours in. I’m going super slow on the story so I can just relish combat.

My primary attack is charge, dash, ads+time slow, headshot bouses like whoa (just did my first 3K damage headshot yesterday at level 35 hehe). Basically parkour charges my attacks and I whip around a power sniper rifle like a pistol. My hacks are all anti-mech/anti-drone/counterhack.

And I just got air dash. It’s got me all hot and bothered. ️

The game still has a decent amount of jank and glitches but as someone with like 5K hours in Bethesda games this is tolerable. I’m having a blast.

How’s it coming for y’all?

@Jumpscare Shame they broke up. They deserve each other.

@Warma-Sheen When the truth is subjective in perpetuity, as so well bulwarked by Sun’s gaslight/ignore/insult process of handling problems, then there is no value to being right. If I wanted, “Nothing is real, everything is possible,” I’d read Lavrorv. That shit ain’t cool to do OOC.

But she and Polk use the same playbook to burden and humiliate players for fur on the floor while she’s ignoring the gorilla that’s shedding.
