no comments necessary. activity check is done by sucking the mods' clits with delicacy and precision

the actual expectation is that you will exceed the minimum requirement most of the time. that expectation does involve some level of subjective judgement on the part of the mods, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. it's actually a good thing, because it filters out people who are unwilling to tolerate mods having any level of subjective discretion, and you need to filter those people out or you will have a bad time.

your actual problem i think is that you're a little bit dense.

okay, let's give a real-world example here.

my job allows you to clock in up to ten minutes after the time your shift is scheduled to start. the entire point is that they recognize that sometimes shit happens and they don't want people panicking if they get stuck in traffic or whatever. that doesn't mean you can clock in ten minutes late every single day without getting called in to talk to management.

if you have to ask about what the actual expectation is that's a sign you need to drop because if you're actually active and engaging in the game on a regular basis then that shouldn't be of even the slightest concern to you.

that doesn't sound like a problem with the idea, it sounds like a problem with the mods being assholes

but that's completely not the case. i have yet to be in a game that doesn't describe the AC requirement as the minimum to remain in game at one given time and that instances of repeatedly making just AC for a string of months will be taken up by the mods. you need to accept that the AC requirement is a bureaucratic measure for mods to ensure you still have a pulse during one single month.

making you AC will let you stay in short term. it's not enough to keep you in game over the long term as a sustained practice.

there is no secret expectation. it is very public that this is a minimum requirement, decided at a low level for your and the mods' tallying convenience, to give you a pass for one month of shit happening — not to encourage a habit of effective squatting.

anon is either very anxious, case in which an environment like dwrp with rules fundamentally open to interpretation won't suit them, or they're more interested in gaming AC than in playing in their game.

this is a tactic. when they're upset they pretend to abuse their sleep meds & instantly start typoing incoherently

That is so casually controlling and manipulative, holy shit.

you're playing with people i don't want you to play with so i'm going to delete plurk and never rp again

I was all set to dismiss this as grudgewanking over someone's mental health issues, but asking their friends not to play with people they don't like because it makes them uncomfy is a crimson red flag. Never met anyone who didn't use that kind of request as a spring-board to be controlling in other ways, and people who do this always turn out nastier than the people they want their friends to blacklist.

Standard 20-comment AC, but it has to be over at least three threads and those three threads have to be with three different players.

IMO the biggest problem with flakes isn't "never tags at all", because that's easy to work around. It's the people who only ever tag with the same 1-2 people and don't engage with the game as a whole.

as an anxious different anon who has totally struggled with wrapping my head around the fact that the expectation isn't actually the expectation... this is a really good example that clarifies it.

Re: +1

(Anonymous) 2024-06-29 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
yes, I read this as a fear/anxiety over expectations situation rather than that anon is just making ac every month. I think I would feel that way too if I thought I was being held to a truly secret standard.

anxious anon, if you double AC every month you are probably fine.

The manipulation here goes craaaaaaazy... any deets on who they're non subtly being passive aggressive about this time? I can't understand someone who's apparently so desperate for friendship and connection while also deliberately sabotaging every single friendship they might ever make

Re: milk

(Anonymous) 2024-06-29 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
the bolter
Im also just realizing people care way more about getting to play with anyone and everyone than they care about how uncomfy it makes a friend and thats just how it is.


that is... sure something

Sometimes rp can make you dislike a character in canon.

I see this one character played like an incel creep or fuckboy sleaze so many times I now started to hate seeing him in the canon too.
