Legitimate excitement over an upcoming scene, days in advance. And then being unable to sleep the night before because anticipation!

It was EVERYTHING I was hoping it would be

My kid graduated elementary school today (grade 7) and her artwork won the contest to be on the front of their yearbook. I'm proud and everything, but she's ecstatic beyond all belief and seeing her that happy and proud of herself is the RL thing I love the most.

Typos.

You paged Somebody with 'Sure, sounds good Feel like hitting the dicks?'.
You paged Somebody with 'DOCKS. OMG DOCKS'.

Everything. Fuck everything. Stupid everything.

Arx. I just do. There is never nothing to do. NEVER. And the crafting system??? SO FUN! Finding a new place to play and being able to fit in there, be active and useful there? I love it. I will never not love it.

RIP Christina Grimmie.

Maybe not as big a name as some of the others here, but she was a gamer, a great talent, and a genuinely good person. I will miss her. All people deserve to be safe, full stop. No qualifiers necessary. This is a senseless tragedy.

What makes you say either 'hey I want to RP with this person way more' or 'hey I don't want to actively RP with this person anymore'? Can be IC, can be OOC; just curious about the spectrum.

For me, I've found my breaking point is often centered around pressure to TS. This has happened before and happened again recently to me. Char was in a long term relationship with another character and the other player made some OOC comment about not getting enough TS. Despite their apology when I called them out on it, I found myself liking the player less and less for other things I would have normally ignored and I eventually asked to end the relationship IC. I couldn't get passed the 'I'm not getting enough TS' mentality.

Something that will almost always make me want to RP more with people is probably pretty common, and that's level of interaction in a scene. Are you drawing me into something my character can contribute to? Are you asking questions that they can respond to? Are you physically doing something that they can play off of? Are you handing out plot like it's going out of style? That sort of engagement makes me want to play with that person more!

So! What's your turning point?

We have a 'RL Things I Love' and a 'RL Anger' thread to balance it out. We have a "Random Bitching" thread to discuss what we hate about MUing (all 201 pages of it) so let's have a "MU Things I Love" thread to make things even. I'll start!

MU Thing I Love: When someone does their damndest to make your character unplayable/make it unenjoyable for you to play your character, BUT you still play your character and still LOVE playing your character, and others still play with you and love your character, too.

TAKE THAT!

Vindictive happiness, rising.

What makes YOU go 'yay' when MUing?

@Arkandel And the opposite of that 'hey do you mind if we FTB on this sexy times stuff?' SHAME that chick is such a prude. It's just a game. You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't, depending on the person.

People don't want my kind of attention, because it often brings vulgarities and kitty videos.

coughs, points to her username

MUers who go above and beyond, IC and OOC, and you know you can count on them to help with an event, to run a PrP, to bounce ideas for plot, and to just generally deliver stellar RP time after time. You know who you are

This is a bit of a niche thing and you'll probably only get it if you're into Minecraft and watch Hermitcraft, BUT the creator of Decked Out, TangoTek, came into my twitch stream while I was playing his game! He's basically a celebrity in the Minecraft community and I'm flying so high right now

The players who are a-okay with FTB requests. Seriously. You rock. Thank you for being a bright spot.

Apologies here should start with "I regret nothing!"

@ghost it's self selection and hopefully a necessary evil of the evolution of MSB that will dwindle with time.

I'm with @Arkandel. Why would you want to be with someone who was willing to cheat? You deserve better, obviously, given your own high morality.
