@tek Oh my god, I apologize for using an "A" word.

Maybe you should stop being an "A" word.

@Ghost People choosing to play in an online game where they can log off at any time with zero consequence are not being abused, you asshole. Now if somehow they were fucking controlling them OOC or screwing with their RL relationships and finances, maybe.

Mighty fine hill you chose, son.

@Ghost said in The 100: The Mush:

@tek I think that inviting other players to unwittingly play support cast to your personal PC-driven adventure is abusive to the players, yes.

As someone who was beaten, molested and medicated for illnesses I didn't have as punishment from the ages of six to eighteen, you're full of hyperbolic shit.

Also, for the record, I've heard they're very nice people RL and I wouldnt be doing this if I didn't hope that they'd get out of that cycle of making everything about themselves, because they are very creative, active, and tend to run games with interesting themes. I think, with some control-related tweaks to opening games up to player input, constructively, they could do really well.

Hindsight20/20 leading off with that would have been more constructive and made me look less like a trolly cunt.

So you've backpedaled from "they're abusive" to "I'm doing this for their own good". Cool.

Oh no! People on a game you will never play may or may not be playing make believe with people you don't particularly like! How much harder can those hands wring?

A friend of mine died over a year ago. Her parents (?) still log in as her occasionally and "like" things on Facebook. This needs to fucking stop.

@BetterJudgment ...Second Life is still a thing?

One of the kids I work with drew me a picture of Angelica Schuyler catching a flying Pikachu

"I'm sorry your character didn't let my big dom dick erase the pain of her dead parents."

My rats. They are snuggly :3

@Wizz I never realized people got that weird about it. But it's the Internet. I shouldn't be so naive.

What is a MU* baby?

I mean, I talk about my characters in the third person as a way to distance myself from them, not as a way to give them agency. JFC.

Another tip: Criticising other people's poses in OOC isn't a good way to win friends and influence people.

My character: just lost her parents, distraught
His character: "If you want to talk, I'll be in my room"
Me: goes to find him in his room for a scene. scene starts.
Him: "Btw, I'm into Dom/sub relationships." switches to second-person text
His character: starts getting handsy

Yeah. Not sure how else this could have been interpreted, dude.

This seems like the kind of internet echo chamber needing-to-feel-special stuff that leads to Otherkin. Like, someone doesn't feel like they fit in, they find people on the internet with similar feels and a few get this idea that they have animal souls, and it becomes a self-perpetuating thing. It comes from a lot of the weirdness of western culture around imagination and the ways we are allowed to process the human experience, I think, and people who aren't well-adjusted to begin with will take some of this to heart in a very literal way.

@SkinnyThicket This is what happens when people are made to feel uncomfortable about using their imagination. They get this weird pressure for everything to be /real/ and then they wander into an internet echo chamber and there we go

@surreality He was more subtle than that. I don't think I rated that kind of explanation. He's really whiny when scenes aren't about how great he is, though.

the first time i interacted with him, he started telling me about his kinks in ooc, apropos of nothing, then started posing in second person like he assumed we were gonna get our TS on. i've never left a scene so fast.

They probably ignored your application because you're super creepy and have no boundaries.
