head mod makes a plurk to tell players off for expressing negative opinions about the game in their own private plurks

that's a yikes from me bro

reminds me of neth and her wol with how she insisted on apping to games with mastery of every in game class because you can do so in ffxiv

tone indicators and i would seriously take stupid emotes over the kids on twitter adding /s /j /srs at the end of every thought

Surely you're not just going to tell us this without offering pastebins, Anon

i know we're supposed to pretend all perspectives are valid

but yours isn't

it's final fantasy, there are like seven people on dreamwidth who don't play from it and i'm one of them

yeah a wankgate bitching thread is basically the same as a fundraising plurk run by the person who just lost a child

bait stinky

if enough of your timeline is like this that you can't just unfriend or unfollow the lone cringe weirdo behaving this way, you have self-sorted into that circle

because it is not common or widespread at all. most dwrpers are desperately trying to pretend they're not old and using cringy tiktok slang

because i'm a cutie pie and the way i communicate it is thru copious amounts of nyehehe teehee ^__^ :3

but more seriously it's because I play a mean villain and people will get all squirrelly and imply maybe I picked up an asshole character because I enjoy acting like an asshole irl unless I go out of my way to be a little cutesy and silly ooc. I don't mind because I am cutesy and silly sometimes but it's also to ward off the "o-omg.... ur so intimidating" comments

do you feel better now

ok mich

Here comes the pity party. No you didn't get thrown out of the game for "a joke", you were thrown out for being relentlessly and thoughtlessly nasty. You've been doing this for years, and every time consequence arrives instead of trying to change you cry about how you didn't mean it so others should just keep putting up with your asshole behavior. Who cares who else you're hurting so long as you have fun amirite?

dude, just don't

do you have a medical condition where you'll die if you don't post something that gets a reply of "deets"?

If you're that bothered by it then you know where the door is.

You'll take ^_^ and XD from my cold dead fingers

i assume theyre talking about Art, who seem to have gotten booted from Folkmore after behaving like a socially inept bulldozer for ages, and blames the boot on some joke they apparently made

if it's art there must be pastes

what "joke" do they think caused it though?

probably something they know offended another player and so that must be the reason

Folkmore has a discord so i bet they were treating it as their therapist again and thus got booted for making people consistently uncomfortable which obviously translates to one joke

This is why I don’t trust people with anything personal. Too many times I’ve realized I’m just a fun dispenser and any friendliness I experience is the currency being paid to me as long as I keep the fun coming.

Seconding this. Sometimes I’m like maybe I’ll share something… nah, assholes like this exist and there’s no point actually.

people sure took this one personally XD

That same kind of bullshit got them booted from Starhue Valley six years ago.

They really never change, do they?

op's language was a little uncharitable, but it still seems a little weird to call the anon an asshole, if what they are expressing is that individual instances are perfectly fine, but they find it exhaustive when the behavior becomes a trend. i've been in their shoes and found it a bit uncomfortable when people i barely knew would give me unsolicited daily updates about what personal life situation is keeping them from tagging, especially when i made no effort to hasten them to get back to their threads and didn't probe for a reason behind their absence. if the relationship isn't close, oversharing can be overwhelming too and it can make people feel guilty for effectively existing on the receiving end of an untagged thread, even when they are exercising zero pressure. a simple 'hey, X is happening, i'll let you know when i can tag again' can be enough.
