i've had entirely too much personal experience with art to think it's the former. art wants what art wants and art will say and do whatever it takes to extract it from you

knowing how allergic people are to telling the whole truth whenever they get banned (including the asshole in the plurk itself), i have a hard time believing that other person 'sail is talking about as well. i highly doubt someone was banned simply for "being too excited for the upcoming plots"

autism can make it difficult to pick up on social cues. that's not the same thing as actively being an asshole.

idk, i need more context on the new player. i've seen too many situations where newcomers app in without OOC commmunication and try to steamroll the preferences of current players.

at bare minimum, see if players of close canonmates are even interested with playing CR with you. this person is allowed to reject potential CR with this character for any reason.

your oc is still an oc and you should label them as such. they don't stop being an oc just because you have half a book written about them. you will not escape the oc cooties by pretending they're from an established canon.

this is a really stupid take. why app a character if you're going to refuse to play out their canon close cr?

I cannot believe I have to clarify this:

It was literally "even if I didn't know her, this would be horrible"

I use tess's codes and was expressing sympathy for the loss she's experiencing.

Speaking as a former wanker, logging in to clarify anything is not the best choice of action.

Let anons be anons. And in time, everything will die down. You are just adding fuel to the fire by doing this.

Oh sweetheart, no. Logging in on wg will never result in anything good for you.

for crosscanon CR?

are you stupid or something?

oh this is gonna be good. nothing like seeing wankers making it even worse for them.

sorry your desire for specific cr doesn't supercede other players right to opt out of playing it

nah that's still dumb. if bob and steve are best friends in canon, a bob player has every right to expect that if a steve apps, they're going to be able to play the friendship as it's depicted in canon. a bob apping in and then ignoring steve is being ooc and most games don't allow that.

if you want to just straight up ignore entire aspects of canon because you don't want to play it then this is not a character you should be playing in a game. keep them to memes and psls where you can choose to keep or ignore whatever parts of canon you want.

So, you logged in to defend yourself on Wankgate.

(Anonymous) 2024-08-02 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
thing is, that's not what you said

you didn't NEED to say you're not a fan of her, that's irrelevant to the loss of her child. sometimes, you (general) don't need to make it about you. you can just say "this is horrible".

(also empathy and sympathy are not the same thing).

(Anonymous) 2024-08-02 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
"even if i didn't know her" is not the same as "even if i wasn't a fan". not even remotely close

you're trying to rewrite history but you're not exactly smart

if you can't understand that people have the right to deny you in games, no matter what your subjective view of canon is or how stupid you think their reasoning for it is, i don't know what to tell you other than stay out of games yourself, anon. in my experience, most castmates aren't going to welcome a player who can't respect other people's boundaries, no matter how IC they believe they're being with their character by ignoring them.

OP didn't say they cared about whether or not the old player would reject the new player, just that they want the new player to get tonnes of CR and thrive where old player has to see it. Sounds more like they hope that new player's presence in the game (and potential popularity) makes the old player uncomfortable, not that they anticipate they'll feel any obligation to interact with them or acknowledge the pairing.

OP doesn't mention new player's attitude directly, but if new player is threading on the TDM and they app despite no input/active rejection from old player, they probably aren't there to ship push. This is apparently character/pairing hate on old player's part (saying they never tag the character, crowing about the cast meeting cap) so new player's behaviour isn't a catalyst there either.

The two clues we have suggest new player is fine and that even if they weren't, it wouldn't have any bearing on OP's feelings towards the other player.

it's the bizarre inclination to make it about yourself and your feelings that made it a rotten thing to say in a plurk like that. no one gives a fuck whether you are or aren't a fan of a person's work when their child is dead. just express your condolences and replurk.

"new canonmate on the tdm" makes me think it's a different game bc there's no new characters from that cast on the tdm
