Players choosing on their own to do the thing that you actually planned for. It's like seeing a unicorn.

@three-eyed-crow Personally, I tend to cut people off OOCly before I cut them off ICly. Especially with well-known or repeat offenders. Sure, you can ask me about this thing in-character but no, you no longer have the privilege of paging me to gaslight.

2. you do not need to give your same time commitment to people you dislike as you do with people you do like, and in fact if you try to do this you are probably going to end up being needlessly mean or impatient with them because nobody hides their genuine dislike of someone as well as they think they do

I feel like this is big. It's OK to just not enjoy dealing with someone, make your peace with that internally, and go your own way. I've bent my RP circles a little bit just to be a happier person OOC. This is generally far more pleasant for both people involved, since there is no way dealing with a person that dislikes you is anymore fun than dealing with someone you dislike.

Don't get me wrong, I completely agree. HOWEVER. This is a slippery slope. It's where accusations of cliquishness come from. It's where freezing people out of character-relevant plot comes from. ...I'm not building up to offer any solution to that.

Honestly, I'd say if you are having this inner conflict at all... there is an issue that needs to be communicated. My rules for these types of situations (which I never follow) are 1) establish what action I am going to take "if it happens again" which I guess is just establishing boundaries 101 and 2) don't be a mindreader. And definitely don't Jessica Jones this shit.

Dear thesunstraw...

That shell is done @thesuntsar It is in the past. This is our thread, now.

The first comic I ever received was from Vision & the Scarlet Witch when I was like, real young. It was from my grandma. Her name is Wanda. That was the only reason the bought it. Cut to [redacted] years later, I've got a sick Scarlet Witch tattoo and a player handle.

@saosmash said in Rosters: To PB or Not To PB?:

@coin It was a specific example of a real thing that happened. Staff did step in eventually. The point I was making though is still the basic players gonna be players point.

Eh. I can see two active examples right now on there where they haven't. Womp, womp. Players gon' play.

@three-eyed-crow everything I say is aimed at you. please read in an intended aggressive tone.

@cobaltasaurus I like PB provided. I think a visual aid can help a char stand out more to prospective players even if they end up changing it. Also, with roster chars who are POC, it can detract from whitewashing entering the equation.

@saosmash You know how rich ladies on tv shows always hug each other with their eyes wide open right before ruining one another's galas? That's what I'm doing to you right now.

@saosmash I'll fight you.

@faraday Would a significant number of characters really be sending hate mail to the leader ICly via anonymous messenger?

I honestly believe that the players on Arx absolutely would.
