@Warma-Sheen I’m so sick of having to justify my stats. I shouldn’t have to write that my character was a career chef just to beg enough points to make toast. I’ve been told multiple times my character needs more experience for their build but I look at what I’m asking for and my character is in the range of “fucking useless”.
somebody on a WoD game once asked me to justify why my char had Dancing 4

It’s me, I want to play the forever-20-year-old, with a body that isn’t randomly falling apart from too much marching band.
jubilee can’t rollerblade anymore bc her knees are bad

@Pavel lmao. What the fuck kind of game was this.
tis but the poison seed from whence doth spring all ye lords & ladies games
@Pavel said in MU Peeves Thread:
If you go back ten or so years ago, there were definitely places wherein if they discovered you had posted on WORA (or wherever), they would flay you alive, tar you, feather you, fire you into the sea, and then ban you.
it isn’t that this changed it’s just that nobody ever comes to dump things anymore
everybody either silently deals with it until they can’t or just leaves bc they know exposing like even the absolute worst behaviors won’t accomplish anything and literally no one will care who didn’t already

Plz let me just submit a log of RP to demonstrate my skills as a writer. Or just assume I am awesome because people glance at applications and go ‘yeah I’m not reading all that, make it shorter’
i was like 8 when i started MUing and they trained me to write those gigantic like marvel handbook style apps and it’s like hardwired into my brain now
i like writing descs tho, it releases dopamine to the part of my brain that downloaded hundreds of Japanese computer paper dolls
@Artemis said in MU Peeves Thread:
@Prototart i could not play them if i wanted to because of this, it’s super ultra lame asf
I seriously hate it so much, like, number one it’s an opportunity to show your ability as a writer (the only times I’ve met somebody w a good desc who was just awful somebody else wrote that for them) and number two, just, that isn’t even true, this isn’t DC in 1980-whatever, there’s like zero consistency between artists? Like Illyana was drawn as a waif, a pinup, and a fitness model by different people all in the same miniseries.
@Jennkryst said in MU Peeves Thread:
Your point stands though because I will desc up as 30A and people will pose like the character has massive mommy milkers, even when my poses are like ‘actually… no’ Which means they’re not paying attention to what is happening so why am I there again?
people do not understand boobs like at all, i have seen “the size of her head” and it’s a D
@RightMeow said in MU Peeves Thread:
I still stand by your sexy factor, etc is less PB and more RP. Sure, sure your PB can be great or whatever, but if you can build a story with me? Chef’s kiss.
I seriously can’t put into words how much I hate the comic game trend of not even bothering to write a desc at all bc “everyone knows what they look like
@renaveleigh said in MU Peeves Thread:
I don’t want to ascribe malice, and, I don’t, but this is not a well-reasoned policy at all.
in the posts people made about ~continuity~ and rosters and inherited characters what i think maybe got missed about the place in question is that it’s literally a superhero fuck MUX that when i looked at it had a continuity that was literally “someone’s continuity is what they say it is, batman can be 20 and Nightwing can be 30”
it’s hard not to ascribe malice when it’s a place literally built on fucking and then sharing logs of your fucking that decided one particular kind of body was unacceptable for fucking unless it was completely hidden and unacknowledged
@GF said in MU Peeves Thread:
@Prototart I can think of two off the top of my head. One is a hero, and one is Batgirl’s normie roommate, so I’ll assume no one is knocking players down in a rush to play her.
the only trans char either of us had ever seen played is Sera, Angela’s girlfriend who hasn’t appeared in, like, a decade
the entire thing is dumb and the whole “we hear you. you are valid. here are the six characters you can play.” makes it even dumber
@renaveleigh said in MU Peeves Thread:
Trans characters are in theory appable, but given how few such characters there are, it’s a very tenuous theory.
we actually looked btw there’s one who we’ve ever seen played anywhere ever and half of them are characters who showed up once in one of the yearly Pride specials
@Jennkryst said in MU Peeves Thread:
@Twinkle Oh nobody was banned for this (unless I missed something), they were not allowed to make permanently Futa Power Girl.
Wonder Woman was set unapproved for a while
@bored said in MU Peeves Thread:
She power-gamed on Maxima and Knockout. She was sexually aggressive in the OOC room, to me and to other people I know.
I didn’t play Maxima, shithead, and I definitely didn’t flirt with you.
And not counting like a day on B&B, I am not and have never been Power Girl anywhere at all ever. I don’t play on this game! Nobody told me ‘no’ to anything! A friend of mine was hurt by something and I thought it was bullshit and I posted about it.
@bored said in MU Peeves Thread:
@Prototart I was on another where a power-gaming, OOCly sexually inappropriate Power Girl was banned, apologies if it wasn’t you that time. Maybe she attracts the type!
But let’s at least be real: it wasn’t the same people who banned you round two on HAM. You weren’t pre-banned, you were allowed to play on the game, you were playing there just fine and engaged in RP, but you did all the same shit you always do, being sexually inappropriate in the OOC room constantly talking about your huge tits and OOC-playing at people, while also complaining that your god like characters weren’t even more godlike
dude what the fuck are you talking about
eta: I’ve never played Power Girl anywhere, and when I was knockout I played the goofy Superboy version, went full Kirby with shit like New Genesis being the size of a galaxy and boom tubes compressing you so you’re human sized, and did a scene where i stole the disco boots of the gods
somebody played her before me and for all i know after me, i have literally no idea what you’re on about
@Juniper said in MU Peeves Thread:
Which MUSH banned trans characters???
No More Heroes/Yet Another Fucking Comic MUSH made a huge post about how it is integral to maintain an fc’s canon sexuality and gender and gave stern talking tos to the couple of people who were playing characters as trans and apparently unapproved one of them, who is actually played by a woman who’s trans, until she scrubbed all mention of it
@bored said in MU Peeves Thread:
In b4 @Prototart is banned from their… I’m going to say at least 4th comic game out of those I know.
I’ve only been banned from 2 i can think of and one of those was the same people who banned me from the other one for outing the predator they’re friends with but like it’s v possible i am banned in absentia from games I’ve never heard of
@GF said in MU Peeves Thread:
@Prototart Is that the new Ares one that has a rule about how you’ll be banned if you talk to anyone about anything another player does to you?
sure is
banning trans characters in the year of our lord 2024 is beyond insane, but doing it on a superhero fuck mush is truly something special

Jill guest still making the rounds!
Annoying? Yes. Impressive?
… in a way, yes. It’s been fucking 20 years.
wake up, feed the birds, make sure your social security check was deposited, thank the grandkids for the birthday cards, then settle down to log into a random game as a guest and pretend to be a lifeguard to the first female name you see not idle
so total shocker, Scott and Ruby reacted to these posts the way that like anyone who had to deal w them at literally any point as players or staffers would expect:
trying to figure out who posts under what name, smearing them to anybody who’ll listen, probably agitating to get ppl banned, and from what i’ve heard getting super paranoid about who i could be there
to keep some rando from getting sacrificed on the altar of their personality disorders, the last time i logged in to HAM except as a guest was when i claimed raven then got kicked off for a combination of making Chaucer mad and outing a sexual predator years ago, and the last time i logged in as a guest is in this thread
believe it or not it’s just that basically nobody likes either of you or enjoys tiptoeing around your explosive tempers and fragile egos, so shit gets around
