go the Old Man Henderson route

@Warma-Sheen I’m so sick of having to justify my stats. I shouldn’t have to write that my character was a career chef just to beg enough points to make toast. I’ve been told multiple times my character needs more experience for their build but I look at what I’m asking for and my character is in the range of “fucking useless”.

@Juniper It’s probably pretty much impossible to be fair in judging what ‘justifies’ a stat. When you’re doing it for hundreds or scores of characters, anyway.

Look, don’t you know how DANGEROUS Dancing 4 is? You’ve be able to cut up the rug and defeat Antedeluvian vampires in a breakdancing contest! Your pirouettes would dizzy the minds of mages! Werewolves would howl in defeat at your disco moves! Changelings would have no choice but to bow to your Thriller! Your ballroom dancing would shake the very pillars of heaven!
Totally understandable to ask for such mind boggling power to be justified.

person: [god i love neil gaiman], he really blows my skirt up
me: [you seem to lack certain recent information]
person: If it’s some bad thing he did IRL I’m not interested. I don’t want to hang out and have a beer with the guy.
me: [damn, that’s pretty gnarly and context blind]
person: [you are ATTACKING me take it somewhere else with your toxicity!!!]

person: I think if I was allergic to peanut butter I would just eat it with an epi pen in my hand.
In Occam I trust.

We were once told on AoA that we needed knowledge:Tatooine at 50 (out of 100 max) or greater to know what a Jawa is.

“I don’t know, Kandu. It’s a mystery. If only there was some sign or information about what these mysterious ‘Jawas’ are-- HEY! Dangit, those little robe guys started stealing the repulsor lifts on the speeder again! Jeez. Now, back to the mystery of Jawas…”

My peeve remains wanting to start a character on a game somewhere knowing full well I don’t honestly know if I have the time to play enough to avoid getting idled out.

You right, 2025. Time to lower my expectations. This is my lane, I’ll be right here in it.

I’ve been running a game for almost 2 years, and I do miss being on the other side of the screen sometimes. Especially when there are cool concepts out there that I want to see succeed.

Today my mu peeve is that I haven’t been on a mu since christmas, nothing appeals to me so I am not joining anywhere, and I think I’m just turning into Bones McCoy and everything is newfangled and gonna scramble my atoms.

My peeve today is leaving a game I invested in because a person I was friends with was uncomfortable with the direction it was going. Our characters had stories together that were tightly intertwined. Then find out two years later, after you trash talk the admins and the game (deservedly), that they go back on that same character, erase you from their character history and don’t even talk to you about it. Like they just don’t care. Like you never mattered.
Internet friends are fake. Don’t ever trust them. (A lesson I keep having to learn.)
-
People on the internet can indeed be fake. But it’s worth trying, all the same. I have online friendships that have endured for several decades, and they’re often the people who will sit up with me at 3AM on my darkest days and keep me afloat.
Whatever’s been happening, try not to let it get you cynical.
