oh shit that's right, i'm in a game where using the reading page is useful now, lol
なんでシットゥ!
i'm so out of touch
Tad Cooper
The reading page wasn't normally useful?
なんでシットゥ!
Tad Cooper : the last few games i have been in are the sort where everything happens in a single comm because they're usually not trying to cover an entire universe
なんでシットゥ!
and if stuff's off that comm usually people are putting up links to it in their plurks and it's usually just, like, relationship memes and character essays and the like, or if it's something that is taking people elsewhere it'll still start on the main comm and then link out
なんでシットゥ!
i haven't been in a game that organizes itself like this since i was doing rp on livejournal, i don't think
なんでシットゥ!
it's neat, i haven't forgotten how to do it or anything
なんでシットゥ!
velvet crowe and america beeny share extremely similar dispositions and absolutely polar opposite ideas about the Law
なんでシットゥ!
ladies, it is advised you invest in learning some chill
なんでシットゥ!
is it worth tagging in to the hmd post when i've barely been in the game a week and also opening myself up to potential anonymous harassment gives me the wig
なんでシットゥ!
questions which i feel like a fucking baby for asking but also which there is no real inside-my-head satisfying answer
なんでシットゥ!
i feel like i should, given that i was in the middle of actually fixing up my own velvet-specific hmd entry to actually be usable as such, but, also.

i honestly find dwrp's anon culture to be so toxic that i don't participate in hmd's unless it's mandatory
6LilacMimeLions
like, legion would probably be fine
6LilacMimeLions
but it's the principle of the thing
6LilacMimeLions
the idea that you have to open yourself up to criticism from someone who never has to attach their own identity is utter bullshit
なんでシットゥ!
you and me both

internet barbies: much like existence under a repressive government, apparently
なんでシットゥ!
i left my last game for fear i wouldn't be able to avoid it so when i say i'm anon-averse i do mean i can't really emotionally hack it even when i think i can
なんでシットゥ!
i usually just cover for that by saying i don't really trust someone's word if they can't put a personhood behind it but what i really mean is, well, just that, i don't deal well with it at all and don't like talking about the things i've had people say about me that are why
なんでシットゥ!
i'd much rather really believe people when they say they're having fun playing with me, ok, and i don't think i'll have trouble with that in legion at all, but given recent events drawing the eyes of the you-know-what i'm not really worried about anyone in legion, if you know what i mean
6LilacMimeLions
i have an anxiety disorder so i really do understand people being unhappy about confrontation (in a general sense; i don't have social anxiety)
6LilacMimeLions
the "i can be anon but you can't" thing is entirely about avoiding confrontation
6LilacMimeLions
and you really can't go through life never being in conflict with anyone about anything
Tad Cooper
It's an optional HMD. I probably won't be tagging in it either, because I never see anything positive come out of anon HMDs and my anxiety level is high enough this week.

なんでシットゥ!
my personal experiences with anon have been of the "i get to tell you to kill yourself now haha" sort or similar kind of loaded phrasing (i can get mouthy, so i probably partly bring this on myself), so i get gunshy fast
Platinum
Anon used to be on, but due to a former member commenting, the posting settings have been altered.
なんでシットゥ!
MODOP: i must've missed that happening oops, all this anxiety over nothing
なんでシットゥ!
the post itself said anon was on and would be likely in comments, but i'm guessing it just wasn't updated to reflect the situation
Platinum
It was probably just overlooked.
なんでシットゥ!
anyway, much as this soothes my anxiety, i'm sorry to hear that had to be done anyway
6LilacMimeLions
being abrasive (hi, you don't know me very well yet, but i can be abrasive) is not an excuse for harassment
Tad Cooper
Yeeah. I have an HMD on my journal, but I may hit it up.
6LilacMimeLions
(i think i'm just direct, but plurk favors a really soft communications style i just can't do without coming off as insincere, so i probably read as more dickish than i intend)
なんでシットゥ!
6LilacMimeLions
correct response to someone saying something offensive: dude, that was a dick move
incorrect response: lol kill urself
なんでシットゥ!
it is impressive how often the former leads to people deciding it is such a "threat" that the latter is their inevitable response
なんでシットゥ!
i still wonder if i'm too new to even have anything worth contributing to this one but i want to say thank you to everyone who was willing to pop in to reassure me on my worries about the other problem
6LilacMimeLions
i will happily tell anyone anytime that dwrp's culture is super-broken
なんでシットゥ!
i did spend years avoiding it for a reason, i'm not about to disagree
Tad Cooper
I did too, lol, but mine is very much please just talk to me if there's something wrong
