My tabletop group ran a BESM Star Wars for a few sessions. It was pretty fun but unfortunately my tabletop group has the collective attention span of a squirrel and it died.

@three-eyed-crow I was thinking more along the lines of, "This character has a POC PB and is described unambiguously as a POC, but I'm gonna use Jared Leto."

People are ultimately gonna do what they're gonna do, with rosters. Sometimes, you're going to be frustrated. It is the Way of Things.

Dammit I almost caught you and put you in my family and now you escape!!!

sadly put down butterfly net

I can't believe that the response to WTFE's story was to go "well, actually, I'm going to disagree by invalidating your own lived experience as a player".

?????

@theonceler I'm on hiatus!!

Hi!

But how do you write a public callout post saying "today we acted like goddamn adults"? I mean we have a thread for when things are really awesome and a thread for vicious complaining but "things operating within normal parameters" on the day to day is hard to get excited about one way or another.

I'm glad things worked out for you though!

I find that when information is widely available there is a concomitant social pressure to minimally familiarize myself with it or Not Know What is Going On.

I'm really bummed about this. Skywater was a fun player, a good GM, a good gamerunner, and just one of those people who managed to keep it together even when players were flinging shit and being stupid. I loved RPing with her and I was sad we lost touch. I knew she had health issues but it's just heartbreaking the world lost her last year.

@darinelle I'm sorry I had to go to bed!!

@Wizz Capitalism is garbage and it's especially garbage when its principles are applied to things that aren't related to money.

@sab Hello! I think I have rped with you like, one time ever maybe, but LOTS of people I like say you're cool. Maybe one day I will catch you!

This is totally a post worth making, what?

@arkandel I dunno, if you have an established rule that says no character squatting I think it's a lot easier to go "Hi there, you are barely meeting this FC's activity requirements. Please review our policy on character squatting. Either start getting out there and rping or consider returning this character to the FC roster! We will check in again on activity in two weeks," than it is to fire someone from being staff for generalized shittiness or failure to pull their weight.

That said, TLF has a 2 FC alt limit and I think that does help. Honestly sometimes people squat when they only have one character for whatever reason, though. It really comes down to being willing to make rules and then enforce them.

@kanye-qwest Does that mean @Apos is the real princess?

Hey, I'm also on Spirit Lake!

Yeah that's the main reason I don't have any interest in playing there too even though I've had friends check it out. At no point in my rp life have I thought, you know what my rp needs more of? Racism, sexism and homophobia.

I mean different strokes for different folks but I'm personally really glad that I don't live in the 60s and have no desire to roleplay in them.

@auspice I'm kind of at "boob emergency" stage of buying a bra right now because everything I own keeps STABBING ME but I'll definitely keep an eye on amazon/zulily/whatever for the future. Thanks for the headsup.

@thesuntsar I'm really sad that it wasn't you he's looking for because that would be amazing.

@darinelle I'm upvoting for your bubbly, not for your husband getting you sick. That was clearly just rude.

My brother lives in Puyallup and I am not capable of saying Puyallup correctly.
