Game Pet Peeves

The notion that, if you've been in game for more than a year that you have to remember every little thing you had happen with your muse ICly.

Look, I may be able to just look up old posts, but last I checked, my muse doesn't have the ability to remember every single little minute detail that has ever occurred to them in game.

They're gonna forget shit and SURPRISE they may even remember things WRONGLY.

Hate this shit. It gets pretty old having to deal with other characters teasing mine about her "bad memory" just because she doesn't instantly recall what an old neighbor's son had for breakfast on Wednesday two years ago like the rest of them apparently do.

I say that depends on the rate of passage of time in the game. If it's one RL day per every IC day, then I'd agree. But if it takes one week or even one month in RL to get through an IC day, I would expect them to remember the more significant events and conversations that happened over the span of at least an in-game week. Unless they have a shit memory where they forget everything that happens to them over the course of a single day.

I have the opposite problem. I seem to remember every fucking word they've ever said to anyone, but then I'm stuck wondering if they would remember it.

That aside, I agree, it's complete bullshit.
