@Cobalt said in MU Peeves Thread:
But I just still find it hilarious he tried to tell someone who has known me all my adult life and has, I do not lie, helped shape the course of my life over the past 8ish years, that I would kill her game and she would be dragged down for knowing me.
Like, sir, she knows full well I have a short fuse and run off half cocked sometimes and am a massive flake.
When I asked you to come tell stories for me, it was because I knew I could mitigate all of these issues. If you need to flake, okay. We have other people who can keep telling stories while you get your shit together. I also know that I’m a calming influence who can usually mediate the issues that tend to make you blow a fuse. It’s also less stressful for you to not be in charge, and it’s not like my game co-runner Nhan is going to ever be like, “That’s not a good idea.” No, no. He’ll be like, “Wackadoodle batshit crazypants weirdness? I LOVE IT!” (And I’ll be like, “Can both of you tone it down a notch?”)

Yikes.
Man I must have missed somewhere where Cobalt was a villain. I’ve been around them on and off in different incarnations over the last couple of decades I think and never once even when we’ve staffed on the same games had an issue.
But, meh. That’s me.

@Tributary This dude is just a little obsessed.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021

@Testament Like, how many times can I tell this guy “I don’t care” before he stops?
Seems infinitely many.

Just the weaselly way he talked to you makes my skin crawl.

@Tributary It’s like he’s trying to use the MSB M.O. here.
Repeat an expression that if you aren’t equally outraged, then you are equally culpable.
And he’s frustrated that it’s not working.
-
@Cobalt Any interest in making staff-bits on random games to keep this dude from showing up?
-
@Tributary lol. lmao.
-
I just love that he called @Cobalt a “loose canon”, like she’s an 80s action movie cop.
“You’re a loose canon, Cobalt! Any more PRPs and the Mayor will be up my ass with a microscope! I need some Tums!”
-
@STD Anymore alts and the governor is going to take away my keyboards!

damn, I’m sitting here like there have def been several times when I would have benefited from @Cobalt being way more of a loose cannon

Twiiiiiiiiiitch.

I thoroughly enjoyed the bored stonewalling of this gaslighting attempt.
Solidly well handled.
-
@Tributary Says the man was banned on ARX twice and many other games for being a creeper that sneaks back on. Fuck that dude. He is a serial abuser.

“I have a very good reputation” - Clearly someone trustworthy of good repute.

To be fair, I only said that because he was like, “She’ll ruin your reputation!” and I was like, “Whatever. My reputation’s fine. I expect people to judge me for me. You cannot make me paranoid about this. Why can’t you just accept that I don’t care and go away?”
Except I was on my phone at the time and didn’t want to be bothered with typing all that.
I mean maybe I should have pointed out his reputation not being so stellar, but that seemed like effort and he certainly would have told me about how he’s friends with everyone who’s ever played Ares ever and how he was doing me a favor warning me. Or something.
Clearly dude did not want to just go away.
-
@Kestrel Oh! It’s exactly who I thought it was. Sounds about right for him.

Yeah, in any other context I’d laugh at the person delivering that line, but in response to a jackass attempting social intimidation tactics, it’s an excellent fuck off.
I match the good faith I’m given. The correct response to blackmail is always to turn into an apathetic sociopath, for the 5 minutes it takes them to get the message there isn’t anything here for them.
On the phone or not, he deserved none of your time or effort.

@Tributary I think my favorite response of yours was “There is literally nothing to abuse.” It’s a good way to run a game.
