@Cobalt I would love one if you still have it to get out of the hell that is Twitter.

@Coin Yeah, the scheduled scenes are what killed the last game I was on for me. 90% of the RP there was these scheduled scenes; no one seemed to understand the concept of just “go RP”.

With my schedule, I usually don’t know till a couple days before I have time, THAT I will have time. At best. There’s no way I can do these “Oh, in 10 days on Sunday at 5 PM, 10 people will log in and do a thing for 6 hours.”

@Roadspike Everything I’ve ever heard about the Network has made it sound the opposite. Things are big scheduled scenes, limited-time plots, etc.

Looking to see if there’s a mush out there that is “casual-friendly”. As in: does not have activity requirements. Does not have the vast majority of its RP happening in pre-scheduled scenes you have to sign up for.

Basically, something where a grownup who has RL job and RL commitment can log in a few hours a week if they have time, and engage, and have fun, without being obligated to jump through 99 hoops and make it a second job just to get involved.

Anyone?

@L-B-Heuschkel I sent a friend your way a couple months back who was new to Mushing, but their concern was that they couldn’t figure out how to engage. No one talked to them, and as a newbie, they couldn’t figure how to get involved with the story. This is probably on them as much or more than anything, but I know it specifically related to Keys and someone being new to the hobby.

(To clarify, this is not me trying to slam Keys or LB, both of whom/which I think are awesome. Just thought it might be relevant. I think a lot of us forget what it’s like to be that true newb and flailing around trying to figure out how to mine for fish.)

Oh, and Jubilation Lee from Shang, one of their most infamous sexpests, is protected by staff despite having - shock! - harassed multiple people.

For sanity and safety, who?
