@Evilgrayson Fair. As an American I sometimes forget the rest of the world exists except in so far as their time zones are inconvenient to my rp.

Counterpoint: there are young people finding MUs for the first time even now and it has been an absolute fucking JOY watching them dive in and enjoy the fuck out of everything. They +comp for logs that they’ve read that don’t even mention them. Yes, even straight up just social RP.

Restorative of the soul.

16+ is baffling from a liability perspective. 16-18 protects you from nothing. What?

I don’t care if there’s magically no creeps on my game, I still don’t want to deal with having minors on it.

When I was 15, I thought games not letting minors on was AN OUTRAGE.

I was not correct. I was 15.

@Pavel i actually think night court of the freehold would be really fun to rp.

Even asking for gov’t-issued ID as a private RP server is opening yourself up to wildly unnecessary liability IMO. You don’t have the capacity to effectively check it, for one thing. There’s no way you’re secure from, as others in this thread have pointed out, the obvious hazard for identity theft.

Like, there’s so many things wrong with this it makes my head spin. I was already not going to rp on discord, but it hurts my heart to know that the next generation of RPers is doing something this potentially self-destructive and dumb in the name of protecting the children. Y’all, the children who want to get in can fake IDs and the adults you’re turning off with your overreach were never at risk.

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!

@Yam the trouble is that people like this are generally bad at comedy due to a fundamental inability to read the room.

What consistently happens to me when there is a cap is I am consistently rping and it doesn’t matter because my character is gonna be behind someone whose memory works right no matter what. Time gating xp spends is especially bad for this. I dumped 8 XP into a skill, my character was working on that this whole time - why it matter when I hit the button?

I can see why it is lame to do it mid action scene when the skill is being rolled. Otherwise? This exists just to torture people whose brains work like mine.

@Roz I ALSO HATE THEM AND SO DOES MY ADHD

Pretty sure in any hobby, any undertaking done by humans on this planet, if there is a way for a person to have even imaginary authority and/or influence over other humans, there is going to be an issue with sex pests.

This is so unnecessarily dicky one feels that the dickiness is part of the point.

@Tez ok but tell me about your fantasy rp league

@Ashkuri i’m rping now, my response is no longer accurate due to the passage of time . . .

Honestly the tableflip flounce is always comedic.

@Prototart unenforceable without consideration

STOP VAGUEBLOGGING IT’S 2026

Honestly any RP result that takes a character permanently out of play is one that I don’t want to have to be the one to do to someone else & will bend over backwards regardless of IC logic in order to avoid so doing. Consent should be required both for dying and making me kill you.

@Juniper This was exactly what I anticipated.

I also think that some people might turn it on thinking they are okay with conflict & want to present as ready for anything but then shit gets real and they are not as together as they think.

@MisterBoring This was me at one point. Did the prep, did RP about the thing in advance, did the request. I was excited to play it!

Completely flaked on the event. Why? Forgot about it. Completely spaced the time and date until after it had passed.

I was so embarrassed by myself I ended up vanishing off the whole game after that.

SOMETIMES THERE’S NO REASON AT ALL.
