@Pavel Your first question is a direct attack on so many of us.

citizen sleeper and citizen sleeper 2 are both amazing

A thousand times this. Beautiful games - and nicely bitesized, too.

I was just chatting about this elsewhere, and for me what it comes down to is this:

Anything that takes pressure off people and makes it easier for them to nose around makes it more likely that they will check a place out and maybe even play. I think this is a great idea for new, curious people checking a place out, who maybe don’t know anything about this style of play, or how easy it is to change a name.

I’ve run into some of the concerns you mention around IPs for guests, etc., as a game-runner, so I’m glad to see an idea to tackle it from that side too.

Personally, I like the random combination of adjectives and nouns. I couldn’t tell you why, but I don’t love the numbering. This is 100% vibe and not logic-based.

@Trashcan said in AI Megathread:

What most people are expressing is the desire for transparency, to know if AI was used to create the content they are engaging with in the MU* space, and if there was more of that, I expect there would be less false accusations to go along with it.

There’s even a real-world example of this! That one Ares L&L game that used AI and was quickly called out for not disclosing it.

This made me discover it was a hot button issue for me to disclose AI usage. Like @Third-Eye eye said up thread, the major thing for me is disclosing whether or not you have used AI, and in what ways you have used it. I could potentially get around to embracing an AI policy that allows for the possibility that players might use AI–

But I cannot embrace a policy where they don’t fucking flag that they are using AI. If it’s about blah-de-blah trust then why aren’t you fucking telling people that you are using AI. HUH. If it adds so much value to what you do, why do you hide it. HUH. Obviously if it is that good you should be able to show it. HUH!!!

Then again, the last time I REALLY saw someone use AI in a game, they were using AI to disguise their poses while they dualboxed alts and used one alt to help the other. They got caught at it. They got banned. You know who you are.

Maybe there IS something to say about AIs and people who use them and trust.

@Roz There’s also the case where someone might have set up a robots.txt file to reject the robots, but it would still be visible to people. I have done that, for example. You wouldn’t necessarily know if it can be scraped or not.

I’d personally have some real reservations introducing someone else’s writing to the great chatbot in the sky.

Tez

@InkGolem I suppose the robots are out there scraping the mines regardless. I’m glad you seem to recognize that as a boundary for people though. I think that would be a particular hot spot for many people in the RP world.

Tez

@InkGolem Do you share their writing with it as well, for example sharing the scene in progress?

Tez

@InkGolem Do you tell your RP partners you are using AI?

Tez

@SirKay @Ashkuri Sorry for the delay and thanks to @Trashcan. Give it a try now.

Tez

@Trashcan Just FYI, I’m taking a look at this. The console is having issues so I’ll give it a bit. TY for finding a potential solution.
