    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      I haven’t RP’d in awhile and I forgot all about the ‘there can be only one girl’ player. You know the one that will immediately perceive nearly all other female PCs as threats and ignore them when a male PC is present and otherwise be weirdly passive aggressive about everything because you might take their man.

      Lady, I just want to kill zombies. You can have all the dicks. I don’t want them.

      @Whisky said in MU Peeves Thread:

      Woke up in the morning to find the password changed and my mostly-done character was now a roster character, mostly edited to suit what they wanted.

      I would be super pissed if a PC I made (even if I didn’t finish it!) was made a roster without my consent or approval. That’s so rude.

      There are things I really like about Ares, but if you’ve got ‘is everyone hanging out without me’ brain weasels it sure does love to show you scrolling pages of private scenes that say yes, yes they are.

    • RE: RPing with Nobody

      I always thought of vignettes and journals/blue books and things like that less like solo RP and more like RP hooks–you’re putting it out there hoping someone reads it and is like gee this person sounds cool or hey I have information on that I could help them with.

      So I guess it is kind of like throwing a (long) pose out into an empty room and hoping that someone sees it when they come in and wants to pose back.

      You all know this is a troll, right? There are no minds to be changed here.

    • RE: Neitherlands

      She’s the person I was complaining about who wanted all the dicks on the zombie game. It was so blatant and ridiculous that she’d go out of her way to exclude other female PCs on a summary writeup for a posted scene.

      And like just to be clear the sexiest thing my PC did in that scene was lift up someone’s shirt to see if they were wounded there (they were)! So it’s not like I was romantic rivaling her or whatever.

      (to KarmaBum) Irene says, “I didn’t do submissive things about female PCs.”

      Please tell me that’s not just a transcription typo because LOL.

      @Serafine said in Neitherlands:

      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…

      @Serafine you are the one that brought this up. All @Cobalt was asking was if this particular thing, which you said, was really true.

      It’s okay to say “That was just what I thought” or “Sorry, I’m making shit up to keep the conversation going” or “lol i dont even Rp” if you don’t actually know that she blamed her hospitalization on @Jenn

      I get that everyone is very excited to be able to AI generate Henry Cavill their favorite actor as their PC, but can we please keep everything safe for work on actual character pages? Generate all the naked/nearly naked pics you want sure, but please share them on Discord or something and don’t post them to your character page.

    • RE: Your first game?

      God this thread just reminds me how ancient most of us are.

      My first time RPing was a total accident. I used to watch the Disney Afternoon and at the end of a Gargoyles episode they were like “Come join us to chat at #gargoyles on IRC!” and i was like what is that?

      We had a brand new tiny computer at home and I figured out how to get in (with Homer!) and joined and…there was no one there. Eventually someone came in and said “Hey no one is ever in here. Come into this place instead.”

      ‘this place’ was a RP room. I want to say like Red Dragon Inn but I think that’s wrong and I ended up in Gryphontavern for years and @Herja and I have a shared Infamous History with a Certain Someone who is like a legend of powergaming in the early online RP world.

      Then I drifted away and one day a friend from there sent me an email and said hey, I’m playing on something called a MUX, you should come play!

      And I made a truly horrifying stereotyped Irish character (as we all have done at least once) on Project Infinity.

      I am still friends with people I met there like, 30 years later. WE ARE OLD.

      I missed all of WoD though. Just had no idea it existed and then it just…it just sounded bad, guys. You all tell so many horror stories constantly, so I don’t feel like I missed out!

    • RE: World Tone / Feeling

      Decades ago, Tenebrae put something in place where you would basically rate your plot before people signed up. I think it was like ‘Risk of Death’ ‘Risk of Maiming/Weapon Sundering’ and then just ‘No Risk.’

      It worked for the most part. People who signed up for the risk of death scenes knew that it was possible their PCs could die and they were usually Big Plots where it was cool if they did. Did that stop some players from still being super mad about it when it happened? Nope. In a big Save the World scene I remember a staffer had a monster with an insta-death ray that would kill anyone with a bad fort save. So he made sure it targeted the PC in the scene with the best fort score and thus the best chance of nothing happening. Like I specifically remember the conversation on the staff channel where a bunch of us weighed in on who it should target because while it was high stakes we didn’t really want to kill anyone.

      The PC then rolled a 1 and accused the staffer of doing it on purpose and declared the whole scene had been set up just so they would die and it was a whole thing.

    • RE: Player Ratios

      @bear_necessities I always felt like there should be a way for players to indicate to staff if they wanted to be involved in things or not but I have no real ideas on how to implement it. Like you could do metaplot y/n because there’s always people who are dying to get in on things, then you have people that are just there to do social scenes and never want to know there’s a dark god hanging out at the bookstore, etc.

      I am that person that loves to pull people into things, though. Did you take a point of map making on your sheet for a lark? Boom, now there is a plot where you have to read a MAP and SAVE THE DAY.

      Though I can see how if you made your map making pc just to romance your friend the explorer, you might be annoyed if the Gnome King interrupts your date to make you go get a group together to save the Kingdom of Butterbright.

    • RE: World Tone / Feeling

      Honestly the world is on fire so much lately that I want something not so depressing when I try to disconnect from the news so I stay away from grimdark and horror, but pretty much would be looking for a game where the PCs would get to be heroes. Which is not to say they win all the time hooray, but more like a place where the PCs could work towards the greater good without getting smacked down for trying.

      I’d be down for a good supernatural cowboy game. Where you can shoot a werewolf or a ghost or something and then go to a rodeo or watch a bar fist fight. Something fun!

    • RE: Pretty Princess Simulator

      @Ominous It still seems like you’re setting it up so that people are going to mob staff NPCs and that’s going to put what sounds like burnout pressure on them. And then there’s favoritism and times people can’t get on to meet up with a staff NPC and and and…

      But as @KarmaBum always says: what are people going to RP? Because it sounds like everyone is just going to be fighting for I Talk To The NPC tonight. And that’s going to get really old really fast if you have more than like 5 people playing. Will there be bonuses for people who just chat/fight during the down times ala the Bachelor/ette? Or does this sort of thing favor the person who only logs on for events, gets the NPCs ear, then logs off so nothing can stick to them?

      Like this seems great for a small group of friend running a sandbox, but looks like it will fall apart the minute you get more than 10 people.

      Just don’t ever have the Royal Heir played by anyone. No one has ever seen them. They’re off fighting a war/building treaties with other people/etc. And while they’re gone, their family has just decided to get them married.

      Then they appear at the final event to select the person by…points, cards, gossip, whatever.

    • RE: Games we want, but will almost certainly never have

      @KarmaBum It’s funny that you bring up the Network because when you mentioned a cowboy game earlier I was like damn the most fun I had in YEARS was when the Network did their cowboy season, I too would like a wild west game!
