MU Peeves Thread
-
My new peeve: buying a fancy new mechanical keyboard with nice clicky keys and not having the free time or energy to actually sit down and put it through it’s paces on a MU.
-
@MisterBoring What kind of clickies
-
@Tez I got a Keychron C2 with brown switches. My old keyboard died when I was rearranging my office and I accidentally dropped my paperweight on it. If I had the money, I probably would have gone for something slightly more pricey, but the C2 will work for now. If I had the money, I might have gone for the Q6 or maybe a Unicomp New Model M.
-
@MisterBoring I have brown switches on my split keyboard that I use every day but my faaaavorite switches are the extremely clicky ones. Like. Extremely. Very. Click clack. These are easier on my hands though.

Are you ever reading a log or something and start thinking to yourself wow I should give up RPing so these amazingly talented individuals need never stumble over my dramatic nonsense ever again? Just me???
Some of you are just like TRULY GIFTED writers and I admire you so much!
YES THIS IS STILL A PEEVE.
-
@Tez I am fully willing to suffer early onset arthritis (yes, early onset, fuck you) for the sake of clicky clacky clunky.
-
@Floof maybe you were reading your own rp
maybe you just don’t RECOGNIZE yourself -
@Pavel lmfao big mood. I keep thinking about moving my box whites onto this keyboard. I miss my old keyboard. it was so cute. And clacky.
-
@Tez I got myself one of those very very old school IBM keyboards. It’s older than… Okay not us but probably some people.
-
@Pavel oh my GOD my ENVY
The sound they make. The feel.
-
@Tez It also counts as a +2 magical bludgeoning weapon.
-
being bummed out
-
@Pavel Is it an original Model-M, or one of the newer clones, like the Unicomp?
-
@somasatori I just had my first Jill encounter over on Age of Alliances! I was so excited! Paged me right out of the blue.
Guest (G1) pages: I think my most awkward RL experience was getting check ups from a doctor in my high school as part of the tryout for joining sports
You paged Guest with ‘Jill! Hello!’
You paged Guest with ‘I wondered if it was you!’
Guest (G1) pages: oh hey. sorry, I didnt remember talking with you
You paged Guest with ‘We haven’t! This is the first time.’Sadly she vanished right after that. It was like encountering a cryptid in the wild.
-
@Lemon-Fox I want that one blog that was doing MU interviews to interview Jill. JILL PLEASE. WE JUST HAVE QUESTIONS.
-
@Tez She’d ghost right after the intro tho

Complete with the odd combination of “this is creepy, but wow!”
-
I think I might’ve recently RPed with Jill on a game that has very limited/no OOC? Does she do that? Because I’ve never met her in the classic Guest sense, but I recently had a very weird scene, between two female characters, where that sort of exchange took place IC before I got weirded out and bailed.
-
@Kestrel It’s always been my understanding that Jill never gets to the point of having an actual character anywhere, just making strange conversation OOC as a guest bit and then dipping. I might be wrong though.
-
We only really know how Jill behaves on MUSH game channels/pages. It’s entirely possible they do their schtick in RPI environments that never register here.
That said, the Legend of Jill has been around long enough and widely circulated enough that I assume there are a lot of Jill copycats. Legacy, etc.
