Krathi, weren't you banned from these boards previously for using a racial slur?

log everything questionable. if I ever go back, every line of every pc I ever play, will be logged and saved to cloud so I never lose the log. That's how I roll. Everything I ever did in Arm is on some hard drive or another.

No, you wetbrained loon. when you have two accounts that you've used for 4 years just to talk shit to people over the internet because they play roleplaying characters you personally do not like, you're not really in a position to be able to call people loons. please fuckoff back to the GDB and complain about how jcarter unfairly banned you, tia

I don't see a problem with it. I don't really see what is upsetting. Your character showed a weakness and the game world took advantage of it. Murder, corruption, Betrayal is the tag line. It isn't supposed to be care bear fantasy roleplay. Its a harsh world don't break my immersion by dictating how it isn't.

It isn't supposed to be care bear fantasy roleplay. Its a harsh world don't break my immersion by dictating how it isn't. It's funny that how you perceive the game is completely incongruent to the documented, explained administrative precedents and rules that have been the standard for the past few years. ... Actually, it's not very funny. It's this sort of counter-signalling which enables the staff team to delude themselves into thinking this is acceptable. I don't care what you think about the tagline; it's been a dysfunctional meme of abstract arrogance that the staff team (especially Nyr back in the day) could point to in order to shirk off the blame of all of their incompetence as an actual feature of the setting. How people like you come to accept it probably correlates with how people come to accept cocaine laced with arsenic and baby powder — once the dealer sees that he can keep these schmucks on the hook with less effort, he's going to do it. Come back and tell me you don't see anything wrong with it when the staff repeatedly break their own rules to target and all-powerfully shit on your character (what evidence shows to be) three times in a row.

well, tiv was not a teenager, not skinny, and had black hair, but it's funny you think that the one pc is so painfully obviously me but apparently the others are not and were not. in fact, vora also had black hair, and also was not a teenager, and also was not a waif. nor was the pc of mine after that, taiyina. But keep telling yourself about how all I play is white haired teenage waifs, krathi.

I still remember that plus size aide of yours, A Girl, she was a HOOT! Forgot her name though... or that militia recruit who sadly died due to a crimcode feature.
But yeah, Purg has the right of it, though if I were saying it I'd, try to think of a more civil way, which I kind of was, but then I was like, I'm still reading this long-ass story and I don't have time to keep angrily yanking my pecker over some shitty game run by a pack of feral fuckdweebs every time I disagree with someone about the extent to which they think that tired old mantra applies.

I didn't notice anything incongruent with the docs. We actually got more into it in another thread; start reading here and here. You may want to skip some of the people triple-or-more-posting. Anyhow, this thread is more of an after-conversation from people who read the main discussion of the topic in the linked thread.

Edited after more reading and more time to think. Never mind, I get why its a big deal. Not because this happened once, but because it is a reoccurring theme. Only regard the last three sentences.
Okay, I get it. I still don't think its that bad, but probably shouldn't happen. Did Vennet actually talk or did the "animation" just say Vennet was annimated and said that? Is it actually an imm animation? Is that even in character for the bartender to let someone get robbed. Can't have paying patrons if they get their shit stolen. As for the Innuendos, I don't know if thats crossing the line. Manipulating someone with what they are sensitive with isn't really inherently sexist just because it implies sexual comments. You are also protected by crim code. Tell dwarf Fuck off. n, w, w, w, w...etc. Is it against the Docs. Yes. Is it that bad? IDK.
What was with the tunnel and the stun hit? Nothing in the log leads up to that and doesn't make sense

Look, I have interacted with Bardlyone's characters enough that I know she has thick skin, eventually, I realized who I was dealing with. My characters are basically a flood of sexual harrassment, though it's usually respectful, which may be hard to grasp at a glance. Her characters laughed at my jokes, because I could see that line that should not be crossed. Staff could not see this line, because they blind themselves.
I could not explain the situation, or the amount of frustration, without betraying a friend, which is something I will not do. I get that for some it all comes down to murder, corruption, and betrayal, but being pursued by staff over multiple characters in a calculated attempt to cause a particular emotional response is a big no-no, I would say it borders on stalker behavior. They already knew what would upset her, and pushed that button because they could, because they knew it was there, then dismissed any complaints as whiny behavior, much like you do. But, you've never had that one experience, have you?
I can, however, speak of myself. Having been sexually abused, raped, hated by my peers for reasons beyond my understanding, I understand that... and it's not even the act that's the biggest thing, it's how idiots like you smell blood in the water and swarm like sharks, it's what happens after. Being that person is never easy, everything is already falling apart and you want to swoop in and justify it. this, in itself, triggers an emotional reaction, but let's toss that aside.
You are ignoring the fact that she was repeatedly harrassed over multiple characters for things she shouldn't be harrassed for, shame she didn't pick a refuge in audacity, but know this, she was singled out and targetted.

Yeah, believe it or not you can be raped by females. I don't carry a grudge myself, I think it's like, a one-time thing, but internet trolls obviously want to punish someone because they aren't neck-bearded basement dwellers. The problem is, it's not that it happened once, it's that people like you latch onto it and act like it's not a big deal and pretend everything is fine. It's not fine. It's like people just have zero empathy and keep poking the wounds when they should shut the fuck up and leave it alone. You are the problem, it's not being violated that's my concern, it's your ability to marginalize it and allow a repeat of it. Grow the fuck up.
