1. I hope you are just AI being posted by a person. 2. I would love the run log of an AI trying to figure out MUDing

Yeah I wasnt cheating, and I know what they 'saw' now, which wasnt cheating. I know what their 'proof' was, do you? So kindly fuck off and leave my name out of your fucking mouth. Unless you have proof of me cheating, go fuck yourself This is more curiosity than relevance, but are you unbanned?

Well considering you only do driveby posts on people. It was certainly after you came out of the blue to accuse me of stalking and then didn't bother to reply almost like you just come to try and pick fights and needle people! EDIT - PS Extra credit for trying to imply it's some sexual thing... I don't know about you but normally when I'm RPing with people I like befriending them not trying to fuck them. Maybe a little projection going on here?
I feel like the thing I remember most about you is when you posted your account notes and it said you rolled a new character, ran straight to the desert elf outpost, and mudsexed with Zeia. So that + you calling for Taven multiple times does seem off to me. You sent a DM, I mean I don't have proof of that but I mean..., so you also posting it in multiple threads gave me some ick vibes.
Just saying it's not COMPLETE projection from the guy getting dumped on.
Not to continue to wildly derail the thread further but... the thing you remember most about me is a post from 2014 (here: armageddonmud.boards.net/post/12422 ) that has over a dozen lines and one of them is some random staffer assuming I was running to sex up Shaylee (because staff are oh so observant and objective) and that is why I'm a sexpest? How long have you had the chip on your shoulder mate?

did you come to that conclusion before or after you were bothered by my input re: stalking that woman Well considering you only do driveby posts on people. It was certainly after you came out of the blue to accuse me of stalking and then didn't bother to reply almost like you just come to try and pick fights and needle people!

I wouldn't really bother with Terminal's input. They're basically that episode of South Park where they attend the baseball game to get into a drunken fight. He's just a bleacher bum.

So just to confirm, Taven returned to Armageddon semi-recently and is now an active staffer? If so I guess I just need to join the Armageddon Discord and hope they don't autoban me before I manage to say hey whoever is taven kick me a dm? Maybe let Doublepalli self-destruct a little more before getting into a discussion about whether or not you should continue stalking this person Is it stalking to try and reconnect with someone you used to talk too and can't because AIM no longer exists? Seems like a pretty aggressive take on the situation unless you like know Taven and she said omg Jeshin never want to talk to him again. Than that would be helpful to know.

PS - Sorry for your loss, you should definitely focus on your family over the game. Also try tabletop games like D&D, Blades in the Dark, Pathfinder 2, Kids with Bikes. Small groups of friends telling stories together is very enjoyable and healthy.
EDIT - Yolo'ing the armageddon official discord to see if that works. Thanks.

I regularly check the forum in hopes Taven pops in and reads a message and/or someone who knows them lets them know I am trying to reach out. Old friend I lost contact with when I left Armageddon.
While reading this thread for my daily hey what's going on over there noticed something.
1. You admit to literally everything you did wrong but then coached it as you did not believe it was wrong... You did things that might have been twinking, but it wasn't twinking, but that's up for other people to decide, but also it definitely wasn't twinking. You said things that were copy and pasted thus YOU SAID THEM but they were contextualized in the worst possible way to get you banned. Which means again you did the thing.
2. Historically Armageddon staff are pricks but being banned from a game doesn't require a trial. Here is the logic you need to apply. I have evidence (of some quality bad or good), I have a player, I believe the evidence is accurate and the player is a problem or has done something. I am banning them. I unban the player. The next time anything happens I will go, oh I was right the first time and re-ban them. Essentially unless the evidence is completely fabricated (it's not you said you said it) and the player is not known to staff (you've been around forever and I'm sure the staff or some staff were even buddy buddy with you) than appealing the decisions is just going to led to a future ban when something else happens. Also for extra credit if you do the unfair version of staff just don't like you and want to get rid of you. We have already proven staff almost never get reprimanded or punished at the higher levels so even if by some Miracle you do get back in you still have the fact some vindictive staffer is wanting to ban you, why play somewhere like that?
3. The logic that because you are banned the rules do not apply to you while trying to get unbanned is like babytownfrollicks logic. If you want to get unbanned you don't do things to bend or break the rules that you hypothetically always followed and would still be following. Saying stuff like I'm banned so the rules don't apply to me during this timeframe is the kind of stuff that ruins your ban appeal!

As someone that has done tabletop, muds, mushes, and GTAV RP. I find this entire thing interesting for a different reason. From a objective standpoint Armageddon temporarily closed. They shuffled some stuff around. Now they've re-opened. The promise is some form of concentrated / optimized / best of iteration of the game. It's very illuminating how much interest this seems to generate. I liken it to HavenRPG (yes yes we all know) which had different versions as the codebase grew and they basically rebooted the game. The first few months of each iteration had the best RP the best energy and the most proactivity before the metas formed and the grinding began and the cliques yada yada. Likewise often the best or most optimistic times at a tabletop game is the first few sessions. Players have visions of what could be and what they will do and the DM is getting to flesh things out and lay pipe as they say. New things are optimistic and we give them a chance and it's long running things that we tend to condemn as been there done that.
TLDR - "New" things have all the allure and none of the baggage. It's a fun psychological trick that humans seem to fall for every time and sometimes it's true. It definitely makes a case that RP games should have end of life cycles where they conclude their narratives and functionally reboot because it is good for bringing back people looking for the old buzz and creates a period of renewed energy and effort in the projects.

Just for the record...
It is completely reasonable to be done with a game and not want to give it anymore time but be aware and even interested in who is playing it. Whether those people are in your friend group or people you might want to filter out of ever becoming friends with. You can want to move on from something AND avoid people actively participating in it.
It's even reasonable to... GASP... Voice an opinion about hey remember when I (and others) were mistreated. Just remember the cesspool you're going back too. It's not like it takes more than a few minutes maybe an hour or two to check all of it make a comment and go back to the rest of your life.

Random shout out into the internet. If anyone happens to know Taven well enough to chat with them, please do ask her to check her messages and consider responding to mine. Please and thank you.

Nowadays I'm a developer for a fivem (GTARP server). The amount of code and updates we push in 1 month is the entire code update of a MUD/MUSH over the course of its lifetime. Back in the day I thought well it must be difficult. Nowadays I'm like well they're either incompetent, lazy, or don't actually want to make code changes.

Also I posted here because Taven posted and I was hoping to reconnect. RP communities no matter how toxic are communities. Just because the game itself is bad doesn't mean we didn't make friends along the way. Really aren't they the whole point? <cue music>

I would like to note that I have been away a long time. Look how long it's been! In my travels away from Armageddon to Haven and Shadows of Isildur and MUSHes and MUX and even to FiveM GTAV RP. I can safely attest that the majority of RP communities if not self corrected by sane people end up like Armageddon. You have to understand the concept that people in power within narrative games literally TELL THE STORY they want to happen. When you pair that with lack of accountability and even an average amount of ego you end up with toxicity. Either you fall in line with their narrative both in game and out of game or you get run off for breaking their groupthink. Happens everywhere but damn is Armageddon a determinedly old example of it.
