a pretty egregious invasion of privacy it might be
Of course boilerplate no expectation of privacy using someone else’s system etc, etc, etc…
It’s not only deeply unethical, at least with my particular code of ethics; it’s mindbendingly fuckin’ stupid. What is even the point? If you wanna read 'em because you’re creepy, why post them?
Normally I can figure out the reasoning behind heinous crappy decisions, but I’m honestly at a loss here. What’s the point?
It’s a threat. Not an effective one, clearly, but we can all achieve only to the height of our abilities.
It’s kinda sad. We make better threats before we even wake up properly of a morning (afternoon).

Now that you mention it, you cannot convince me that @inuki is not reading the private scenes players are engaging in on their game.

Not a lot to read, then.
Reading RP others are doing is weird to me. I don’t even like reading published logs.
-
@Pavel Generally I don’t read logs, but I will peruse for mentions.

I love reading logs. And following other people’s character development. It’s like… why I’m here. And when I’m not allowed to do that…
…I don’t! Because I’m not a weird little power-mad gremlin.

I personally wish people would write an abstract at the start of their logs.

Oh, I would love a tl;dr synopsis of every scene. Give me a watered down version. And make the explanation the length of a Tweet.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021

@Testament Isn’t that what the scene summary is for?

I’m available to peer review logs before publication.
-
@DrQuinn Sure, but explaining a scene like a Tweet just sounds funnier to me.

yes you do, you LIKE

@hellfrog You just broke Braum’s heart. You monster.

@shit-piss-love The modern version of the staffer DARK stalking, I guess.

@Pavel The entire thing was a nightmare from start to finish. If your background wasn’t being revised constantly, it was your stats or your advantages or…
I meant to jump into this thread earlier, but I had to mull over what I wanted to say.
You know when you should feel anger, but it’s just a kind of lingering sickness? Like being stood up by Patrick Bateman.
-
@somasatori I provided an annotated bibliography and just like in grad school, I was “making up nonsense” and “wasting precious research money”
-
@Roz You’re not wrong. It was a threat and it remains a threat until there is disclosure.
The “why” of the threat, however, is a bit more interesting.
Let’s say that you, and by “you” I mean in a pretend situation where I am talking to someone named Roz on a messageboard about this unrelated fictitious scenario, actually stood to lose a lot if something this weird fell under professional scrutiny.
“Why are you revising the private exchange between two former people playing… magicians? What is roleplaying?”
This is my suspicion, but given the hasty rush in and out of the hospital for (I forget exactly what, it’s still posted on the bboards) exhaustion/stress/burnout/whatever, which was then blamed on said player…
That doesn’t look good, either. It sorta looks to me like, uh, something I’d pull out of my ass because I was terrified and trying not to show it.
sighs Sorry.
I know you already know.
It was just a really bad, bad, bad, experience. Like booking a vacation abroad and finding yourself in a civil war. >.<
