I’ve already said my thoughts on the others. Except ghost. He just gives me the vibe he likes creating drama while pretending he isn’t out to do just that.
That’s almost certainly what he’s doing. He shows up on r/mud to do the same thing once in a while. He’s a dillweed.
Ooh well. If it makes him happy, good for him (though, it doesn’t seem like it does). It really doesn’t bother me. It just makes me aware he is someone I don’t want to be around because the drama will just annoy me.

I’m more MUSH adjacent than a MUSH player. I mostly like to just be kept apprised of problematic actors that might wander into adjacent places (MUDs, MOOs, etc.), so I don’t really have a lot of stake in any of this. I followed over to BMD because I see value in those aforementioned things, and keeping my finger on the pulse, and didn’t really like the writing on the wall on MSB.
But from a pretty unbiased place (aside from being biased against the draconian nonsense that went down, but whatevs), what it looks like happened is Macha got mad that she got called out, and decided to stir up trouble on the other board (just like she stirred up all the drama over on MSB) to try to obfuscate the situation and discredit you.
Maybe that isn’t what happened, and maybe there IS something else going on, but I’m of the opinion that: if that’s true, it will eventually be outed, because to me it’s MUCH more plausible that a problematic player is obfuscating things than a game dev is obfuscating things to the degree that they would shut down their entire game (and that’s a WHOLE lot of tracks to cover, compared to one problematic player trying to flip the narrative).
Hence all of the mental gymnastics they’re going through to try to justify that major decision.
-
“That group of people we define our community identity by opposition to is bad” seems like a real easy sell, yeah.
-
@Cobalt it’s ok, “game owner”. I respect your right to shut a game down at any time for literally any reason! Even reasons that are entirely invented out of thin air.
I mean, maybe the game got possessed by a demon. Maybe the woke mob canceled it. I haven’t seen any proof the woke mob DIDN’T cancel it.
Makes you think.
-
I really regret reading that. It was exactly what I expected it would be, and yet I still really regret reading it.
I’m sorry that Cobalt even got tagged in it. What a nasty, mean-spirited and alternate-realitied account.

Wait. Is that why she might run an angels and demons game next? Is this gonna be DEMONIC PROPAGANDA?
It’s all starting to make sense!
-
Aww, I think the manipulative creep got her feelings hurt because we pointed out she’s gross. We are such bullies! To be safe, I think she should just never join any MUs run by or played by anyone here. Just for her safety, of course.
-
FWIW I got the game back up today. Thank you to Tat and Faraday (who I am not tagging so they don’t have to ride this roller coaster) for helping me figure out how to do that.

lol but MSB is a place where you won’t get attacked!
Except by the person running the forum who just attacked Cobalt eleven posts ago.
But I’m sure that Derp will find a way to frantically backpedal now that he realizes the person he called out is still there. That seems to be what they’re all doing now that Cobalt weighed in - suddenly no one was attacking her!!

In your position, I honestly would have called it, given that you were already planning on closing. It was really good on you (and those who helped you!) to put in the work of figuring out the errors (which I hear were very strange ones?) to let the remaining playerbase get their closure scenes and whatnot.
-
@Cobalt Tat said that from what she saw of your errors she would have thrown up her hands entirely So. Given what I know of Tat and her stubbornness in the face of a CHALLENGE, I admire your persistence in the face of EVERYTHING at getting it back up.

@KarmaBum if i trust anyone to unfailingly diagnose problematic behavior its derp
-
Wow, I just read the thread on MSB, because unlike Macha I don’t call it the ‘other Forum’ because I’m not a gigantic coward.
She is coping and seething hard and of course Hella(read VulgarKitten, another winner of the human race)would jump at the opportunity to get the chance to encourage their victim complexes together.
I mean did anyone actually expect anything else? Other than Ghost and Derp patting them on the heads and saying how it wasn’t actually ‘that bad’ and how terrible they’re being treated by big bad BND.
-
-
Jesus, part of me used to be kind of pleased when Ghost showed his ass in a ‘vindication of long-held opinion’ kind of way, but now it’s just gross and depressing.
-
@BloodAngel I really wish I hadn’t read that thread. Derp’s behavior falls within my threshold of being able to respond to it with detached albeit bitter irony; but Ghost has made me so mad I can’t even be sarcastic. I’d say “kiss my ass” but that would make my ass feel dirty.
-
@GF I have had a run-in with derp is all. But, I don’t like to air stuff. I want to belive in the best, even if it makes me an idiot.
