ok but re: the tattoo thing
Tal 3 days ago
just watched roommates/best friends getting new tattoos and just got really down because I can't do the same due to money and health issues
the "friend" doing it for free is one (probably imaginary) thing, but apparently the health issues also mysteriously vanish at that

and now ana is asking for buttpats for char.
pm mods to ask if a character is appable since they're major enough of a character to have consistent personality but not enough to have much backstory and i don't want to waste my time on an app if it's not even getting considered
receive answer from a canon familiar mod saying pretty much "i dunno, maybe. go ahead and app but i'm not promising i won't decide they're not appable after all"
either a yes or a no would've been fine but why would you even reply with a non-answer like that, is this some kind of dwrp code

that sounds like "we'll consider your app, but make it good." it's not a non-answer.
then just say that? why is everything a riddle with you handwringing chucklefucks just say what you mean and save us all some time
that first message wasn't handwringing at all. they just can't tell until they see the app. if they're going to put in the effort to review the canon and personality and shit anyway, they may as well do it from an app perspective and give you the chance to prove it's acceptable.
they may not have said it in so many words but it's not like they were like "ummm idk maaaaybe you can always try??? i'm just not sure i can help youjoihrw" that's handwringing. they were straight up "i can't tell from this, app so i can tell."
you're the one whining that you didn't get a straight yes or no

no ships allowed, period
the fallout would be glorious

You have excellent taste, anon, and I sympathize with your reasoning for not apping her.
Yeah, it's honestly one of the most disappointing things about the game. Even if I wanted to try to interact with that part of the premise, other characters swoop in and soundproof everything to the point where having your character worry about it feels a bit silly.
That and the all the weird events that seem more focused on making characters makeout or have sex rather than anything to do with making noise.

On one hand, the movie is taking place only about a year into dealing with the monsters, while the game is implied to be many years later, so people have had more time to adjust.
On the other hand I think it's mostly people treating it like a normal DWRP game, only you have to type your character's dialogue in courier or italics.

plus zeroing in on almost exclusively the women who have grievances and dismissing them as vindictive liars is probably not the best way to respond to concerns about hostile treatment of female employees and content creators
only here could it be considered whining to want a straight answer to a question
an app won't change if a character has or doesn't have enough backstory to be apped
i can write the most amazing app ever and it can ALL be headcanon for the guy standing on the corner on episode 3
i'm with op in this one.

"well, go to the trouble of writing an app so I can arbitrarily decide whether or not to accept it afterwards"
unless the mods meant it more as "if the app is convincing enough I'll bend the rules for you", either way they should just come out and say it instead of this wishy-washy shit

Holly has since said that one of the people that came forward about JewWario today on Reddit is legit and even more troubling is that it isn't the same person as Jane Doe in the document, meaning Justin did this more than once to more than one victim.
I've never watched his content, but holy shit. This is going to be what kills CA.

yes, that's what i was going for. did you mean to reply to the anon i replied to?
Re: TAL / SOLDIERFROMTHEPAST @ PLURK / THAT CHICK WHO SCAMMED ANON OUT OF $450 WITH HER LIES
(Anonymous) 2018-04-12 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)don't forget that she herself said that her husband's first paycheck at this new job is ALL going toward rent/bills.
has he even GOTTEN that first paycheck to spend on bills yet? i think she said he was getting it tuesday or thursday.
imagine dealing with a lazy thief of a wife who has plans for your money a week or more before you even see it. idk if he gets paid weekly, biweekly or monthly. god forbid he loses his job because of how much stress she puts him through with her bullshit.
AT LEAST HE FUCKING WORKS, TAL! do mturk or surveys or some shit and pull your fucking weight. at least in case donor anon gets her money back, which we're all praying will happen?

except that's exactly the mod's answer? "i dunno, maybe." is exactly what they said according to op. it's a yes or no question. all they needed to say was yes or no. yes or no answers are good. straight and clear answers are good.
yes, you can apply for this character but you will be accepted depending on the quality of the app.
no, you cannot apply for this character and we won't accept any apps for them.
how is that so hard. don't waste someone's time by saying "maybe yes maybe no" that's such a flimsy answer.

every game has a couple of wankers that someone doesn't like. either get over it or go to a different game with wankers you can handle.
calm down and touch the grass, anon.

seriously. most apps require several meaty paragraphs, it's a huge time sink that can take hours depending on the place and the app requirements. OP is right to be irritated, especially if being encouraged only results in a 'not enough canon can't app the character lol' rejection from the rest of the mods.
the way I see it, the mods actual answer is, "yes, you can app, but you will be accepted depending on the quality of the app including the quality of 'whether this app convinces us there is enough material for a playable character according to whatever our game standards are'" which is different from "the quality of the app generally/normal app standards". The mods are willing to consider it, but after reading OP's app they might well decide that OP doesn't make use of minimal canon in a sufficient way, and they don't want to deal with a tantrum of "but but but you said it was enough canon to app from!!!!!!" if that turns out to be the case.
It's a frustrating answer, because yeah, you might do all that work and not get in, which is what OP was asking to avoid, but it doesn't seem hand-wringing to me. The mods don't have all the information, so "maybe" is the most straightforward answer they've got.

I get where you're coming from, but I still disagree that was their most straightforward answer on hand.
> after reading OP's app they might well decide that OP doesn't make use of minimal canon in a sufficient way
in my opinion, that's a "yes, you can apply for this character but you will be accepted depending on the quality of the app" and that's all they need to say as an answer.
> they don't want to deal with a tantrum of "but but but you said it was enough canon to app from!!!!!!" if that turns out to be the case
the answer here should be that the application didn't show that the player could make use of the existing canon and is therefore rejected.
