Been trying to engage less online and focus more on myself, especially the last few months. Seems to be progressing well, since July 1st I’ve lost 50 pounds and focused on doing more physical activities despite the triple digit heat (though getting used to it more now… kind of).

I have had run-ins with this person on another game. I have heard similar stories from that game.
I’ve also heard stories from people I’ve known who played on AoA.

So, uh, I believe what is being reported here 100%.

@Roz said in Wyrdhold Discusion:

I was the Male Character in that snippet and wasn’t really bothered by that one tbh, BUT it was the kind of joke that my PC would absolutely find funny, so YMMV.

But this one in another scene seems at a glance to come out of nowhere literally two rounds in:

Spoiler

“Here, lemme help you,” [He] responds, and if she allows it, he takes the popcorn bucket from her. “You know, when I can’t sleep, I grab some lube and just fucking go at myself.” He makes a gross ‘pop pop pop’ sound that is apparently what it sounds like when a man ejaculates or something? He smiles at himself for giving her the greatest advice ever. “Fall right asleep.” Whether he is holding the bucket or she is at this point, he gnabs a handful and shoves it in his mouth. “What’re we seein’?”

Just kind of from 0 to 20? Idk. I think it was a number of different things/reports. Individually they probably could just be like “that’s a bit much.”

Also Forgiveness != Forgetting about bad behavior, nor should it.

I, uh, have a crazy job interview on Monday. I really can’t believe it but going to prep this weekend and hope Monday goes well!

As someone who was once friendly with someone the community viewed as toxic…

When the person in question is always complaining about everyone around them, it’s time to view them as the common denominator in everything

Been painting a lot of minis since Feb of last year. Got done with this one recently and thought I would share as these are dark times and I hope all of you are hanging in there.

Also hope folks have been enjoying RP! I find my brain not wanting to write as much these days. I should change that some time soon.

You know, fuck scammers man.

Here I am trying to look for a new job because they announced layoffs at my company, and I get an e-mail about setting up an interview. Talk to someone, have a lengthy back and forth and then the more I dig and look into it after the fact, the more and more certain I am of it being a scam. Hitting all the notes from some other anecdotes I’ve found online and its like…

It’s fuckin bad enough dealing with our shit ass capitalist system

If you are just trying to scam people looking for opportunities, you’re a sleazebag POS and need to be yeeted straight into the sun.

@Meg said in Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo:

In his own OOC hilarity:

(:Public:) Cujo says, “I bet Hadrix.”
[… (removed by Meg)]
(:Public:) Cujo says, “He’s at EVERY combat scene”

god, he sounds exhausting. you can’t go to any combat scene if you want to avoid him? like ever??? fucking what.

I interacted with him on another game. He is exhausting. Very fucking exhausting. And I say this as a male so I wasn’t exposed to his sex pest side, but there were points of just being around him that I wanted to yeet him into the sun.

@bear_necessities said in Concordia Thread:

I didn’t see a single help file that suggeted there was racial politics in this game. I don’t know where you caught that assumption either. Honestly based on the PBs already, this is an encouragingly diverse game and race doesn’t seem to factor into anything except your own head.

Pretty much this. I read through the files for at least an hour and a half yesterday and no where has anything been said about conflict based on how people look. In fact, given the rest of game policy I’m pretty sure anyone coming into the game trying to do just that would be shown the door quickly.

@Rucket
Sending positive vibes.

Thank you!

Ima big care bear, I wanna PvE.

If anything has to be PvP, I’d rather it be fun IC drama like, “Oh my gods can you believe Davion wore white after Labor Day” or something dumb like that. I would rather focus on making my character go through their own issues/face their own demons than have to worry PvP.

Quoting my own post to say I had a 2nd one on Thursday and hope to hear something early next week about Interview #3.

@Clarion said in Tales of Zalanthas:

I was reading through all the quality of life improvements and theme changes and feeling increasingly optimistic until I got to:

ERP will not be supported. The focus of Tales of Zalanthas is swords and sorcery; exploration, ambition, danger, and survival in a harsh world. Intimacy may exist off-screen as part of story, but explicit sexual content or sexual violence will not be part of the game or allowed.

NO SEX ALLOWED IN THE DESERT.

I don’t know if that kind of policy in 2026 is gonna play out how they want.

Well our president seems to want to beef with the Pope like a French king from the 1300s so may as ban the sexy times in the Year of our Lord 2026

Hey, very cool putting up a new game. Best of luck! I hope it thrives.

@MisterBoring said in RP Safari - Pacing Styles:

I’ve thought up a new pacing style:

Tedium game pacing. The MU will be connected to a generic incremental idle game (like Cookie Clicker), and each player will be given a number of pose tokens. Each pose will cost a number of tokens based on length, and if you run out of tokens, you must play the idle game to generate more tokens, which can also be spent to make the idle game work faster. Scenes will progress at a speed decided by the various players progression in the idle game generating the tokens.

Now I’m imagining TS scenes being on hold for days while people play cookie clicker to be able to put out their next pose.

What the fuck

The fuck am I even reading at this point. It’s like each post comes in and I am just like

I realize how out of touch I am even on places I do participate on for brief periods of time. Hi it is me, Captain Oblivious.
