    The Charites are officially my second favorite divine-type person, right below Isune and right above Fain.

It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

    Poor Fain, probably weeping under His mask now. Look what you've done D:

  • @Xeria, for that brief little exchange.

    I love that sort of conflict. I thrive on it, as a player.

    But I can't tell if you were avoiding it on an OOC or IC level. IC could be fun. ;)

  • @Riluna OOC and IC.. I have no stomach for that kind of conflict anymore. While I was talking to you, as a player I was screaming at you in my head. "YOU DENSE *CENSORED* *CENSORED* *CENSORED*" 

    There's a little too much drama flying around for my liking. what you saw as a tail end of a harrassment campaign conducted by persons unknown against me. I don't know why and how but I'd cheerfully strangle 'em all through the internet if I could. Quit messing with my ability to play the game thanks.

    Yeah, I was a little worried about that, from the way you were acting. But it's nothing personal! I actually love you OOC as much as Ril hates you IG. Try not to take it personal? It's all between them. I'd actually love it even more if you came up with some nasty things to spit right back. ;)

    Honestly, I don't think there's enough drama around these parts. Lusty feels dead to me since coming back.

    EDIT: quoting issues

  • @Riluna nope I can't. Xeria would be promptly booted out of the forest, shofa taken away and hunted down as a rouge.

    Class changes are not an option. 

    @Drakius hrm, I'll take your advice, in a few days, I think.

    Rave @Riluna for being interested Qistrel's entire life story for some reason I can't quite fathom.

    Qistrel totally didn't think you were interested in her at all. Nope. Definitly not.

  • @Riluna No.

    Dealing with someone like that right now.

    If I'm trying to help you, don't treat me badly like I'm trying to be better than you. I take stuff personally too often, but even I know when to step back

    I don't disagree, but that is a lot harder for anyone to gauge than a person looking after their own interests and knowing when to disengage (or send a polite ooc - this is getting a bit much for me, can we step back a notch - type of tell). Some people will, at a single slightly negative tell, turn to snub and hate that character/player forever. Others will leap into it and happily engage in more in-depth conflict. But there is not really a way to tell unless you have ooc contact with a person, if they're loving it or are secretly wishing you would just go away forever.

    Admittedly, I will often send little ooc tells to reassure people that it's not personal, just rp or thank them for letting Lavy be awful, because I enjoy having someone push back against her. I really really need a nemesis. I'm starting to think that I might need to meet Riluna ICly. Plot plot.

    Anyway. Yes. Rpers should be careful on both counts, but we can still not control how others treat us, only how we react.

    Fo sho, I really liked it when I sent Leolamins his head in a letter and he sent me an (OOC) tell about how he thought it was cool. I know there's this big (totally correct) thing about keeping IC and OOC separate, but it's good to check in OOC every once and a while, even for (perhaps especially for) good RP.

    Isn't the friction and drama supposed to be between orgs, not within an org?  I guess magnagora trying to take over all the other cities has played itself out and nobody else has picked up the slack?

    -- Time to activate the glomdoring sleeper cells I think...
  • Glom doesn't have sleeper cells
    If it does...y'all need to come out

  • SelenitySelenity My first MC to stay in Serenwilde
    @Darvellan for saying hello and making my night by doing so. Was legit nervous/scared since the things I've been hearing outside my house have been... violent, given the ruling that was given in the US today (no, I don't live there), but somehow, that little sprinkle of RP with Darvellan calmed me enough to feel ready for bed.

    Thanks Darv. You made my evening. <3

    Silly @Daganev there are no sleeper cells.
