save logs and screencaps of your conversation with the mods, then drop the game like a bad habit. after that, you can handle things quietly and only tell close friends what happened, or you can go the loud, messy route and cause a big public stink on plurk. either way just make sure you have proof.
tell the other mods about player b's activity if they don't know about it and then go with player a. just brace yourself for a minor wankstorm in case b raises a stink about it. if player a's app is good the drama will be shortlived, but it will still be a pain in the ass for a week or two.
if there's that little of a difference, go with a.
the honest option: tell them politely but firmly that they're being rude the next time they cop an attitude about a rejected request and that it's against our "don't be a dick" rule. if they continue to be a rude shit then i'll slap them with an official warning and follow the procedures we have in place for disciplining players.
the sneaky option: same as the above, but also i'll find an excuse to give them revisions if they app another character. then ban them if they throw a fit.

Nothing makes me more pissed than someone reading your starter knowing the dialogue is in media res and their character still goes "are you taking to yourself?"
Like bitch its called a hook and no you are not funny. I gave you something to respond to so respond to it or get out.
In that same vein I also can't stand players not knowing when to timeskip, write in a location change, or just generally making the thread stall for literally no reason whatsoever.

birbs isn't so bad if it's one of the only things you're being silly about. god forbid someone decides to take a break from serious.
Naw, you don't have to be mediocre for me to not want to tag you. The two are not mutually exclusive.
i'd grab caps and publically burn them at the stake. I wouldn't even tolerate that kind of behaviour from friends, let alone a game mod who just pulled that shit.
100% of the time, when people expect me to pre-ban someone, there are either no deets of actual substantial wrongdoing, or they're completely anon hearsay and thus not worth anything. And then the player turns our to be harmless anyway.
Anons need to stop dragging mods into their grudge matches.

PBS, of all people, did a full breakdown of the character and their meaning in the greater scheme of the fictional world he exists in, fiction in general, and how it reflects life to a degree, if you actually care to learn what makes this unbeatable superdude actually interesting to a lot of people.
but I agree with others that, as much as I admire the character and the way they've built him, he's not really a character that can fit into games.

i do have deets but out of respect for it being from PMs i'm not going to drop them. it's the way they handle things and act kind of obtuse. it comes across as rude to me as a player who hasn't been around since the start of the game and they always feel the need to say "you should have read the info for this" when the summary you are given in the acceptance letters is, well, a summary. no i don't need to know the nuances of the game if those nuances haven't been added to game pages. it's stuff like that where i kind of scratch my head at their behavior.
i asked the question because i wasn't sure if i missed it but they'd act peeved when i would say as much. i'm not the type of player who goes "hand me information" but if i'm asking for it, it means i have tried to find it and didn't. i'm not purposefully trying to be annoying and they always come off like I inconvenienced them.

I'm a writing snob and give no fucks tbh - if a tag is poorly written and meh (actually no - if all of a person's tags are poorly written and meh - we all have shitty days when our writing isn't super) then honestly I lose motivation to tag back.
she "won't really grieve" because it takes away her ability to throw pel vagina first at anyone whose player doesn't know yet that tori is a piece of work.
This obsession with everyone being an amputee bugs the fuck out of me.
Characters who have canon limbs gone is one thing (Symmetra, McCree, Junkrat,) but everyone flapping their arms over whether or not Pharah or Hanzo or Widowmaker have their legs (or arms in Pharah's case) is just annoying.

What I'm saying is that places like Tumblr essentially HAVE no moderation because instead of communities there is the godawful tag system where anyone can just put whatever into the tag for something. People have to play elaborate games with nicknames and sticking symbols in the middle of a character/ship's name to PREVENT their criticism from showing up in the search. Everything is all jumbled together instead of divided into silos. It was easier to just hang out in one little corner of the fandom when the norm was journaling sites with communities or dedicated forums instead of Tumblr.
lbr, there is no way tori will play out a nine month pregnancy plot. she'll either decide for all the elves in game that the elf gestation period is only a couple months or she'll have a miscarriage. then she can use that for pity points too.
the only reason it was buried (and that's pretty subjective, because for a lot of us, this wasn't buried at all, but whatever) is because the platforms to make it easier to find didn't exist. but it's literally still the same amount of bitching, it's just more noticeable to almost criminally unobservant people like you.
Shut your mouth, you mediocre clarinet player.
american here
america sucks a lot more than a lot of other places

if you're going to have those discussions, those are the sorts of discussions you have after you're accepted into the game, not before. if i were already in a game and someone who hadn't even apped or been accepted yet started sending me a bunch of pms about this that and the other, i'd feel like they were wasting my time. what if they don't even app? what if they're not accepted? it's very presumptuous.
talk to people after you're in the game but before you start tagging around a lot if that's the sort of stuff that worries you.

is it really taking up spots if they are also very active tho
when the scrutiny starts extending to what games you play with or who you have friended on plurk, it's ridiculous
so what if I want to play in a low pressure game like genessia for example because I don't have time to play in a game with ac. who gives a shit. and yet some people won't give you the time of day because of where you play.

I love learning about characters as my character does, and I never have to worry about whether I'm playing with a "good" version of the character beyond what I see in our threads.
Pretty sure they confirmed at SDCC that the characters with prosthetics were Symmetra, McCree, Torbjorn, and Junkrat. There's a source somewhere on tumblr to the panel, but I can't find it right now.
No idea what's up with the obsession, though.

It's been said above, but thread pillowqueens. Nothing will drain me and have me move onto something else faster than realizing that if I want a thread to not get dropped or go anywhere I have to bring every single bit of momentum to the thread. I get that some of my characters will need to work harder than others to sell them as interesting enough to interact with, but even then if I'm pulling the whole thread, constantly coming up with thread starts, getting nothing back to work with unless my character has asked the other a direct question? Then I'll move on.
