This was the game that put me off MUing entirely in 2021. Feels like it was earlier than that. But that there is active creeping and abuse doesn’t suprise me along with the near homicidal Mandalorian fetish they have there. Cliquish to the point that they’d try and kill your character if you didn’t put a bucket on your head and join the clan.

I did quit Star Wars Republic when a known creeper had me under radar. The same one that got/kept getting banned from NOLA2 made a joke during a Jedi Training session about taking my character’s stunned unconscious body to his room. Used variations of Kaydin, Caden.

After all that I feel like I dodged a bullet.

@CuriousGamer I admit I was not going to say anything and then got anxious when the question was posed when it happened (Road encouraged me to say something because it still creates a history of action, and I think spying on someone’s intimacy and sexual interactions is highly inappropriate, particularly now that I can look at it from the distance of time).

His disregard for Hadrix still demonstrates a lack of awareness.

As a person who just left that game, I completely believe you. Cujo talks a big game about not tolerating harassment, but his refusal to actually address it anywhere shows you who he is. He doesn’t address it because he doesn’t think it’s wrong. Every ban he did enforce has been someone he was personally mad at, no ban has ever been because they mistreated other players. He’s a sad little king on a an angry little hill.

Clearly he doesn’t tolerate harassment and abuse. He encourages it!

Post foot surgery after a few weeks ago. No more vacuum seal on a years long ulcer on the sole of my foot. The bones are healing good, no daggy bits to make the ulcer not heal. And expected to ditch crutrches in another two weeks!

My favorite part of my work environment is when my coworkers make me a participant in their sex lives, I’m sure you all feel the same

@Cobalt said in Real life happy:

After months of fighting to get into a specialist, I am scheduled for a nerve block on my back. I cannot express how excited and relieved I am. There is no repairing the damage to it but I can prevent further damage once I can actually use my back again to exercise and stuff.

As someone getting foot surgery week after next. Right there with ya!

That constant feel that no one wants to RP with you, but knowing that nearly everyone feels that way about everyone. And seeing the cycle that kills any RP

Except those times you know for cetain it’s really you.

Guy doesn’t just encourage it, either. He spies on people TSing, he is an abuser. No wonder he’s fine with all these other creepy weirdos.

Why is a MUSH?

I’d be concerned more about the school faculty being unable to tell a capital I from a T. And went straight to freaking out and so on.

If this person is Ruiz then I feel even less comfortable with painting him as a victim because this is precisely his MO. We can hate on Macha without turning the other person into a victim - in fact, it is hilarious to me that these two crazy people found each other to be crazy at.

I don’t know why but I feel it’s worth mentioning that while it’s a new(ish) thing in MU-space it’s not new new. It’s a big component of F-List, and it’s before my time but I know there were people doing play-by-post on forums and even over email and fucking Usenet in the 90s.

I still remember when continuing a scene meant someone had to manually save a log to a txt file, then post the last couple poses on the continue so people remembered where they at.

And ‘Timestops’. Nope, no more RP for that character till the scene was done. Whenever RL let everyone get free to finish.

The anxiety that builds up on having to leave the houise for whatever reason but then when you get where you were going it goes mostly back into the back of your brain.

At least until something goes wrong and it comes screaming right back.

Mandalorians are just Star Wars’ Klingons. They exist only to make someone else look even more badass.

Making TS a bannable offense is also a kind of solve. Not that it’s going to stop people from locking themselves in a spaceship and getting lewd with each other.

It will also guarantee staff is gonna watch, and wait till you finish. If you get banned fast, you probably did something they weren’t into.

“People have not been banned, everything is fine!” I scream, as I mash the @newpassword button as fast as possible.

@SockMonkey

Logging into an Ares game and seeing what looks like new activity in web. But it’s just your own poses because you’re not logged in as that alt.

It’s an async scene so giving folks time is expected. But ma hopes were up.

Edit: And switching to that alt just does the same thing with the alt you were just on.

There’s lies, damned lies, and ‘In game screen shots’ before release.

Asynch: It’s like you and a friend swapping poses over @mail because their dick game is completely and totally insane

No one - and I mean no one’s - dick game is good enough to suffer through async.

Async is better than no sync sometimes. Some people are worth the effort and the patience.
