That's cool, I guess, but splattering plots and current character info would be one way to nullify the "impact" of these forums. You could still hatefuck each other in a circle jerk, I suppose. im ok with that since idgaf how the boards impact the game itself and only that i and other people have fun on them

What's the difference between talking about a dead character and a living one? What's the difference between talking about a character a year ago and a character ten months ago? What's the difference between our critiquing current imm behavior and a player character's?
Besides which, hardly anyone here is dogpiling. They're just critiquing and sharing the vaguest of anecdotes. Let's keep the obsessive anal nutbaggery of the gdb where it belongs.

I didn't come here to micturate on The Dude's rug. If/when things ever reach that point, those of us will pack it in and vacate, and you old war vets can sit on the street corner and talk about the good old days, again.

I really enjoyed playing with Armali, Koman, and everyone else in the Byn at that time. That was probably the most fun I've had in a clan in a long, long, long time. Since it's been over a year now, I'll tell a story about Armali. it was really late at night IRL, and Armali, Harar, Gantz (the towering, sunken eyed man), along with two runners went out for a ride outside of Nak. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Armali's first char because she led us straight into that pit that drops down to where the Nilazi temple used to be. Harar managed to catch himself in the fall unlike the others. Gantz, who was actually Armali's lover at the time, died hard. I think one runner may have lived for a while in the darkness afterwards. Harar climbed out. A newbie char, he didn't know anyone, and it being late, only a few karma chars were around. Magickers. But he found a half-giant, Chuckem, who was able to go down into the pit and rescue Armali. I'm glad she's still alive... being able to live as long as that has never been one of my strong points in Arm. Agreed. I played a few different Bynners during that period, but also a few rinthis. Gantz was awesome.

EDIT: On second thought, I'll wait til she's been dead a year to talk about the interesting plots I've gotten involved in either directly or indirectly involving her.

^ basically grumble's post was him saying that he played chuckem and felt like a big hero after saving Armali. I don't know why he edited it out, pretty common knowledge. I guess he feels the need to white knight and not post about armali? What does armali even do nowadays? ZZzzzz

It is the roleplay equivalent of spoilers, so I don't see why he has to be white knighting to be decent to his fellow players. This is the Spoilers subforum, though, so there is that.

Ok, but this event happened more than a year ago. This particular event was pretty common knowledge. It was already 'spoiled' prior to grumble's post, and grumble simply built upon it by sharing that his character got wasted in the bar with Armali afterward.
But it's all good, people will cry if they feel like crying. Honestly it makes me want to go out of my way and spoil shit. Maybe I'm a bad person? Meh.

I don't think anybody's crying, erdlu dude. As for the story that Kronibas told, well maybe it's just as simple as the player of Armali wanting to tell that story to someone for the first time IG. I dunno, pinkie, I don't think it's so sacred that everyone is rushing to censor you, and this is the Spoiler forum ... but if Grumble wants to be nice, well he'll do him, and you do you, little kid.

If people get pissed when they come to the spoilers forum and see spoilers, then they are probably higher than I am... Personally, I don't really feel right talking about very contemporary stuff, but if someone chooses too, then well... Hopefully they put it in the spoilers section. As far as diminishing impact goes... Well, whatever. It should be pretty apparent that referring to the group of people who post here with blanket statements and all that doesn't really work. We are all beautiful and unique snowflakes with our own varying perspectives and opinions, so just because one person feels one way doesn't mean that everyone or even a single other person does. You think everyone agrees with everything I write here? Hell to naw... Far fucking from it, often times. And it is basically like that all the way around, for anyone. Even though there are some posters who I find tit hard to ever disagree with... A few of them, anyway. I like you Kmart. You're a pretty smart dude. What's your name on the wizlist?

I deleted the post. I still don't think it was a very big deal... I mean, the Byn murder RPT with the psionic bandits totally rates being posted on the log section of the GDB - despite the fact that it happened way after the first story and includes a living character(s?). I mean, there are probably all kinds of actual logs that were posted which included characters still living at the time the log was posted officially to the Arm site. Am I wrong?
Sorry, I thought it was alright to talk about shit nearly two years after it happened when it was only a minor anecdote...#mybad. Are you sure y'all just aren't busting my balls a little bit? *squint*

Hey, man, I didn't say moderate yourself. If you read up there, I was more alluding to ruining ongoing plots and giving out current character's details. That's the kind of stuff that's never been cool with the community. It's the sort of shit you'd expect from the "AIM cliques" that everyone talks about. I like anecdotes, but I generally share them with the player in question, but that's my own take on it.

>when the spoiler forum used to be about spoilers
Thanks for the warning about posting spoilers in the spoiler forum and for warning players that don't want spoilers to be nice and not spoil with spoilers in the spoiler forum, kmart.
