eating only apples: Dec 12, 2009; Shall we dance?

Clean Your Teeth posted:

Here's one that stuck with me - once upon a time someone (likely banned user Leovinus) bought themselves an alt named "Mr. Boone" and decided to pretend to be an alien, making a thread in GBS titled "I am an alien, and I would like to talk to you about it."

I don't know the lore, but this absolutely was Leovinus.

Others might know the name from their FF8 LP, which was top tier comedy in the LP forum at the time (like 2005). Looking back at it, it sure was a lot of f-slurs. Leovinus themselves realised that it was actually awful and hurtful, and scoured the LP from the internet. They had a go at redoing it which didn't work out.

I think several of the narrative GBS threads aside from Mr Boone were also Leovinus.

Leo and I were pals, they have in recent years deleted themselves entirely from the SA sphere. Hopefully making a new start. I miss them though. Some attempts at getting in touch have failed, so I assume they're as far away from the forums and everything related to them as possible.

Going to risk this one, but I've already posted in this thread so I'm on borrowed time anyway.

There once was a forum for comments, questions, and suggestions. It wasn't some place I posted, but often was a source of great amusement for me. That wound up getting closed for a few months and replaced by a really wild ticket system held up by load-bearing admins.

Well, those admins weren't very numerous or engaging, though a few of them really did try. After not too long, they decided to add a bunch of IKs to the forum so that posters could post and vent and admins could (mostly) ignore things again without (quite) as much animosity.

One of those IKs decided to speedrun the experience - https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4026833

Edit: Meta-discussion starts here - https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4025178&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=76#post530407044 - From pages ~76 - 80 when things get about wrapped up.

"Hey Harold, hold my beer." Less than 4 hours for a mod to go from admin -> poster, an incredible new record.

Trad Games goes to some weird as gently caress places

quote:

Agents of T.I.M.E. is a standard FATE Core game (4 Refresh, skill pyramid at Great). Characters can be natives of modern times or most historical eras. You don't have to do the entire Phase Trio, but please at least do Phase One, which should describe how you got recruited by T.I.M.E. (and no, you don't have to shoot any of your relatives).

quote:

Name: Duke "Sheriff" Johnson
Description: A proud, rough, middle-aged man from a time when men were manly and justice came harsh and fast.

Aspects:
High Concept- Sheriff of Time
Trouble- Demon in a Bottle

quote:

Name: Eliza Smith Edison
Description: The shadow in Thomas Edison's history, the true inventor of his greatest creations.

High Concept: Lady Genius Out of Time
Trouble: Pissed Off Little Brother
Phase One - I'll Never Run From a Challenge

And the third volunteer

quote:

Name: S�ren Weiss
Description: A mature blond-haired blue-eyed Perfect Aryan Specimen (except for the glasses). He'd be quite serious-looking if people got over the fact that he's a walking stereotype. They get over it pretty quickly.

Aspects:

High Concept - Psycho SS Officer
Trouble - "It's a dirty job, and I love to do it."

Phase One - Zeit �ber Alles:

Wait....

quote:

You kind of have to be evil in order to be stopping people from preventing any given genocide or war or massacre. "Preserving the timeline" with these sort of temporal mechanics is sort of a flimsy excuse, unless you are literally some sort of crazy ultranationalist. S�ren is a walking reducto ad absurdum that points this out, and his very purpose is to create this sort of internal moral conflict within the party.

I knew the concept would be somewhat controversial, but I thought it at least worth proposing (it sort of just popped into my head once Kwyndig mentioned the "vaccinating Native Americans" thing). I could do somebody completely different if it doesn't fit with the theme.

it's pretty hard to explain but this is basically accurate

Okay.

That is tricking people into roleplaying weird sex poo poo. Permaban Podima.

Fluffdaddy,, here is the sequence of events as I understand it. I wasn't involved but I'm familiar enough with RP and I was in a discord with Bees at the time and remember them mentioning it offhand a few times.

1. Podima recruits for a game on the forums.
2. The game contains the Girlfriend Robots.
3. The person assigned the girlfriend sex robots character does not like the character, but is told to 'trust' the people running the game.
4. Bees, Renessia, Meinberg (and possibly others?) make a group chat to discuss the game. At least one of Bees and Renessia (possibly both?) is not aware of the girlfriend sex robots due to the game's format and is creeped out by them when they learn of them.
5. They go through conversations they've had with the people running the game and try and corroborate other issues they've had. Someone with access to every channel in the discord is also creeped out and posts some creepy stuff that's gone on in the DMs between the people running the game and other players.
6. They try and discuss this with Podima and get this response.

Even the person defending Podima acknowledges both

1) There was sex stuff happening in the game that some players did not know about and were not warned about. (Which, even if their characters weren't directly involved, is still weird and uncomfortable)

and 2)

At least one weird sex scene happened in the Riven: THE SEQUEL TO MYST game that Podima was involved in (and other players presumably also did not know about/were not warned about.)

I really don't know how you could interpret this as anything less but cause for permabanning. He recruited people from the forums into an uncomfortable sexual situation without warning them beforehand, and then when they tried to express their concerns he tried to pressure and coerce them into it and paint himself as the victim.

Like, even if you don't go and read it, it still happened in a game you are participating in. That would make most people uncomfortable!

lmfao

the thread goes places after the RP 'author' shows up to claim credit for their 'dream' (the Riven RP rape stuff)
