nightelf if you really want to fit in here I would recommend you stop being a troper forever, there’s a reason we had multiple mock threads dedicated to tvtropes throughout the first half of the 2010s it won’t fix EVERYTHING but it’d be a solid start

but then they started going downhill, as all the easily mockable stuff got mined out and the desperate inhabitants turned to increasingly arcane and petty things to mock, until the threads just became weird and uncomfortable for everyone the mock-thread death spiral

I’m assuming the only reason they haven’t tried to necro the Pokémon Rebon thread yet is because OFS mercifully locked it long ago. But yeah, we’re getting into dril tweet levels of “I will never log off” now and it’s kind of sad. Or it would be if the guy involved wasn’t a sexcreep.

I feel like this is what he actually means by 1)quote:Three Rules of Screenshot Let's Play Creation: LP doesn't really HAVE any standards at this point, and that's good. You can do whatever and  . The worst thing that can happen is that people aren't interested in it, usually. The sandcastle at this point is mainly there to point out any glaring, big issues. What to make of the feedback and how to ultimately handle the LP is left to the LPer. I think that's a good thing for the most part. You don't get dunked on or punished significantly unless you REALLY gently caress up. For example by walking into the porn game request rake and then in the casual racism test post rake and finally there's rakes for simply continuing to post despite being told not to multiple times. So many rakes.I used to be in an LP community that had more strict standards compared to SA. Even back in the day when it still existed and I always felt that created a more restrictive, almost elitist, environment. I said it before but I'm glad this place is more open. That sig, though, lol, dude just put it in wordpad if you want to remember basic things about life.

The only way your sig changes without your input is if you get banned, as far as I know. It'll turn into "This thread, brought to you by a tremendous dickhead." in a gray text.

https://lpix.org/sslptest/index.php?id=160033 This test post will be split into three posts once I make the thread: the OP, and two updates which I'll just post back to back. I decided to make two already because the first one is nothing but intro cut scenes. The only thing I was struggling with a little bit was the 900px width limit for the LP archive. If I resize full game screenshots to 900px the text becomes very hard to read. I "solved" that by resizing images where the text is not critical, using smaller crops of the screen where it is, and only leaving in a few larger images where I wanted to show off something in context. Those last few will need to be resized before archiving but that's no huge loss. Any feedback?

As an alternative I just updated the above link to have a CO2 icon (for my nickname) instead of the underlined text for fourth-wall breaking stuff. Does this look better?

I still can't believe he took the advice to abandon his first account and buy a new one, only to oh so conveniently ignore the second half of the advice to  for a few months and let the heat die down, completely defeating the purpose of making an alt.
