@Gashlycrumb said in MU Peeves Thread:
The real contest was to try to write a desc that would scroll anyone’s screen, contained as many treasured cliches like ‘sparkling orbs gaze into your soul’ as you could pack in, yet did not tell the reader anything about what the character actually looks like.
Eyes: Sparkling, soulful and impid, but of undetermined colour. Hair: Luscious and cascading, but of no particular colour or length. Skin: Flawless. Height: Graceful. Shape: Exquisite and touchable. Age: Blooming.
This feels like the advanced version of me complaining about how much I hate writing descs: “I don’t know. S/he has a face and stuff. It’s probably fine.”

@InkGolem I’d have to read through it again to tell you, though. Noooo!

@IoleRae “How DARE you say no to me!? You have no right to say no to interpersonal interaction with me here!”
And then there are admin who are befuddled when you say “I don’t want to do that, I don’t want to engage in any form of recreational play with that person.” It’s the same way in LARPs. It’s like all your rights as a human being go out the fucking window when you’re pretending to roleplay as a different character.

@EyeofProvidence You had me all excited that @IoleRae had returned, but no you’re replying to a four year old post instead.

i don’t want to be an asshole in the constructive space that brought the topic to mind, but omg i hate xp caps and cooldowns sooooooooooooooo much. they drive me nuts. the players are already limited by the rate of xp gain. all of the things that bother people about big xp dumps (a PC going from 0 to 100 in a skill in an instant) will still happen just from — PCs not talking about something on their sheet that wasn’t relevant in their scenes before.
sorry to anyone who was being perfectly pleasant and polite about this today lmao. I’M BEING PETTY. i just hate caps and cooldowns.
(to be clear: by xp caps i mean a cap on how much unspent xp you can bank, not overall game limits on how much xp a pc can spend total. and by xp cooldowns i mean being able to only spend a certain amount of xp within a given timeframe, no matter how much you have banked.)

@Roz I ALSO HATE THEM AND SO DOES MY ADHD
-
@Roz cool downs are dumb and shouldn’t be a thing
-
@Roz Agreed. Both of those are dumb.
-
I got all spun up and ready to fite against bank limits and cooldowns but it looks like almost everyone agrees that it’s a silly system. Welp.
