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

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

Reading this thread the thing that struck me (well. Not the thing, but a thing) was that, as someone who spent years RPing on Neverwinter Nights and even ran several communities in that time, the very notion of banning or even restricting out of character talk was never even within a mile of my thoughts. I can see how that poo poo would've gotten toxic to that point

It's actually Puritan poo poo, that says that your free time must be spent productively just like your work time. Don't have garbage hobbies. Stay in shape. Eat right. Do creative things. Be a maker. Contribute.

The list of demands on Other People's time grows ever larger, even though people are ever more poor and overworked and struggle to just deal with their day to day poo poo.

But the list of requirements for how to live correctly goes ever larger. You not only have to do everything right at work and in your personal life, your hobbies must be Correct as well. The way to express this is to endlessly poo poo talk the things people do like, and imply they are bad. Garbage hobbies for garbage people.

I find this stuff very odd. And the way it's presented very odd as well.

2017 was really annoying

oh, is it one of those where stat buffs/debuffs stack a bunch of times?

good to know!

They stack up to 3x (so if you use -kaja 3x and then get hit with -unda once you can -kaja again)

i have a question

randaconda got permaed for something like sex crimes charges iirc, but how did that even get discovered? far as I could tell at the time he was a prolific pyf poster one day and then permabanned the next

That's how it was discovered, he was a super prolific poster, then he just vanished one day. Someone who knew his name looked into it, and, turns out he was arrested for (I think) possession of CP?

I started learning mahjong to get a few completion points in Yakuza and now Ive been playing it on my work breaks because that shits fun as hell. I smoked someone in Mahjong Soul with a three dora Riichi Ippatsu the other night and it straight up sent them into negative points.

Also check out Mahjong Soul, it's got some stupid anime gatcha poo poo welded to it but otherwise it's a really solid free to play online mahjong client

It really is the best one out there but be warned it does occasionally get horny splash screens for some special events

But God damnit it's good mahjong

okay I'm playing Nocturne and the encounter rate is kind of a lot, hopefully there's an Estoma demon somewhere nearby

also please do not confirm/deny this with anything more than a yes/no, but when the doctor lady says "if you can find me on your own, I will tell you what my deal is," she's saying that I will be locked out of getting her juicy secrets (and presumably route) if I commit to whoever the chaos/order reps are, yes?

E: also yes, Vivienne is both cool and good

This guy mostly does very lengthy video game analyses but he does actually talk about themes and what kind of stuff lands in games and what doesn't but he also does these long travelogues like this one where he and a friend actually drove the Lincoln Highway across the country and it made a very good companion to achievement hunting in Vampire Survivors

I agree with Radia.
Jenny Nicholson is great.
I also enjoy Sarah Z and Izzy, especially when they're talking about some aspect of internet culture or Fandom that I have zero experience with or previous interest in. They present their stuff in a manner that's easy to listen to, and Izzy always has a different spectacular makeup and fashion thing going on. I'm a simple guy. I like pretty wild colours.

I can't deal with Sarah Z's holding a glass in one hand and never moving it or drinking from it. It's fine to have a signature thing but it just screams "this is a prop" and is so mundane that it stands out

Maybe I dreamed it but I swear she specifically mentioned that to be a thing she does to bait comments. I can enjoy the idea that people get mad enough about a glass that it drives engagement.

I mean that's fine I guess but it's effectively the same thing as that "hurr durr look at me I'm a moron" "Shut the gently caress up moron" "haha got em" comic where yeah I get what you're doing but it is actually annoying

Finding it annoying is fine but policing the body language of others to this level is not the innocuous activity you seem to think it is so it’s funny that something so minor can cause folks to do that. This is not the same as mispronouncing foreign words on purpose to drive engagement. She may drink from it on occasion but if she were to do so on screen and not edit it out then other folks would be policing that for its noise or being an affectation.
