The relief I feel when someone who wanted a commission is banned is probably very wrong but

lol I don’t think so. I imagine it’s the same way I feel when someone cancels plans on me IRL, I’m like

I can’t even keep up with 2 alts, HOW ARE PEOPLE DOING MORE.

@junipersky

I can’t even keep up with one character without feeling like I’m falling behind!

Those who can manage all of the alts and give them more than surface-level attention are to be respected and feared, for they have transcended my plane of existence.

And they should do so somewhere where it’s not against the rules.

And as a bonus, maybe not lie. Maybe.

@tsar canceling plans

Herja

I’ve been in a real creative funk recently due to various issues but I read a journal today that was just refreshing in the sense of wonder over stories that I’ve been working on for years at this point. It reminded me why I do this and I think I might see a path out of this black cloud.

@Herja This is the best feeling.

Never remembering what crafter is active with which shop, and never remembering that goddamn command to search shops.

Missing the small, off-game interactions with a few people because they (completely understandably) slipped off a discord server when they became staff.

I have a hard time pinging staff just to say hi, but.

Hi.

@Roz

That does describe most of Arx’s orgs, last I checked.

Jennkryst

@Roz Sure, I read it, but I can’t remember any of the commands to do anything… you expect me to remember anything in background that isn’t chaotic-chot and/or lewd-evil?

sao

@Jennkryst you don’t have to remember it, who can remember everything you’ve ever read?? you just have to read it in the first place so that you don’t take a character whose bg has established facts that you immediately contradict when you start playing because you don’t give a shit about the fact that someone wrote that.

Also no one remembers commands. Except @Roz.

Not a peeve and I have full respect for demanding RL, and RL coming first.

But

I miss Scraps.

I’m not sure who this is but thank you. It’s been a challenging adjustment on this end too. You can always reach out to me on Cristoph or Porter when I’m logged in if you want to chat, or I answer PMs here when they turn up! I’ve even been known to use Discord.

this bother is still scratching at the inside of my skull.

there are very few rosters whose sexualities are made explicit. taking one of those few and then taking action to try and bring them closer to straight because you don’t wanna play gay is gross. just pick up a different character.
