      @DareDaemon said in TS - Danger zone:

      You don't have the right to tell staff that they have to adjudicate textfucking if people have some gripes about what happened during their textfucking. Insisting that as staff that's part of my job, is fucking disgusting.

      I agree with @Tinuviel

      It sucks to have to get all staffy, but unfortunately there are ooc pressures and some pretty extreme behaviors that happen surrounding TS that it's important for staff to enforce those sorts of things as policy.

      Staff settling some kind of IC tryst drama? Nah.

      Staff settling someone trying to rape their character ICly? Absolutely.

      Are there any more games left that prohibit TS? Sounds like a bad investment idea on the part of the people who took the time to stand the game up.

      As someone who has only ever TS'd because other people pressured them into it...

      Frown.

      Sad to say that's probably more common than people talk about.

      I heard similar about that place. Ive also run into players that don't stick around unless there's TS so I figured that would be likely there. 😕

      To be honest, I don't think I've engaged in TS any more than a couple of times with my noblewoman, but I have had some great RP with others. If either of you want to dip a toe in, I can probably help out a bit. The staff there are really great, and a lot of the players can be very engaging.

      I'll keep that in mind if I return. I dig the setting.

      @Tinuviel Upvoting out of solidarity and support, not out of liking that there's a fire.

      re: Kushiel games, the two I've played I played characters that weren't really into the sex for IC reasons. I got just about zero RP as a result. And on one game, Staff outright told me it was my own fault for not being TS-able. So yeah, you made the right call IMO.

      @Arkandel said in TS - Danger zone:

      How much do your TS habits change based on the MU*'s themes? That is, do you find your characters are more promiscuous on say, a Kushiel game than a World of Darkness one? Do you TS considerably more often? Is it easier (or harder) to find partners - and are they actually better at TS on average?

      My TS habits factored more on game selection than anything, and were more baseline the same regardless of game. So I tended to avoid games like Kushiel, Shang, etc because I wasnt looking to write that kind of stuff (best to mitigate by avoidance). I'm weird, though, because I think the more in my brain I call it TS the more something other than writing a scene it becomes. So I never really made purposefully promiscuous characters with the intent to TS about it.

      As far as the "SAFE" question goes, I'm in a similar boat with @Tinuviel and @Ganymede. SAFE as a term only had to do with the age and "ooc bleed factor" of the player. I was less concerned about stuff like "whether their character would dump mine" or anything clingy. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't writing anything inappropriate with a minor or that it wouldn't adversely affect some less stable RL person on the other end of the keyboard.

      @Arkandel Yes, thank you. Can I add one?

      What is the definition of a SAFE TS partner, and if TS is just creative writing why is safety an important factor?

      Coworker calls you while you are on vacation (waking you up) because he cant figure out why automation scripting that is asking for mmddyy is failing when he enters mmsdyyyy

      Also...

      ...he made the same mistake a month ago and called me in the middle of the night a month ago for the same thing.

      Also...

      The fucking script was giving him an error message about mmddyy.

      @wahoo Yanno...

      ...a good/concerned citizen might identify this car in the fire lane as a risk to the safety of their neighborhood and report it, lest it result in an obstruction that could keep a fire truck from saving lives were there an emergency.

      Wouldn't want good people to get hurt, yea?

      This is why NPCs don't play grab ass with you people, you're annoying as hell.

      Are we?

      ARE WE...REALLY?

      Sorry, it's a little early and I'm having trouble drumming up an unnecessary intensity 8 response to help me feel like I'm getting my point across.

      Back to TS talk.
