251: back in my day wank meant something

I suspect fm's mods would love to know about it, since they've been very receptive to warnings about people they shouldn't let in. Probably too late to remove anyone but they wouldn't be allowed back.

Idk anon they let in Art and even let them be an assistant mod for a while. Or was that Milk's doing? Art's one of those prebanned-from-other-games people. Sil, one of the current head mods, even has a ship with Art.

Juu stated publicly on her plurk that she warned the Folkmore mod team about someone that was apping and that she wasn't comfortable sharing a game with them. This was after Juu stepped down as head mod. The problem player didn't know anyone else in the game to get an invite, so the mod team extended an invite to them. lol. This was one of the reasons Juu eventually dropped the game. If the mod team treats a former head mod like that, what makes you think they'd look out for anyone else bringing their concerns to them?

To be fair Juu has had a lot of problems over the years with people who aren't otherwise issues. I know of several games where she's been the banned party. I'm not going to condemn any moderator team that doesn't take her warnings as law.

I know more than one person who has respectfully opted out from playing with some of Juu's characters but not all, on opt out posts and she goes nuclear and blocks them

I don't know. I think I'd be wary of any mod team that ignored a current players request whether they were the problem party or not. You're knowingly inviting future issues into your game at that point. Along with saying you don't care about your current player bases comfort level.

Yeah but juu is fucking psycho so that point misses

She has issues with several perfectly kind and reasonable players. I don't think banning those players when she's the issue in those instances makes sense.

+1 if it were anyone other than juu then i would probably agree with that point, but

unless someone is a big name wanker a lot of these "problem player" issues are probably petty interpersonal bullshit.

i'd tell the concerned player to put in a firm dni with the person they don't want to write with, and tell the one apping in that a condition of being accepted is they don't tag or otherwise contact this player and they'll be banned if they do.

that should be enough for everyone to play nice. definitely wouldn't pre-ban someone otherwise harmless because one player doesn't get on with them. that's literally what dnis are for.

+10000000 THIS

mods still have to exercise common sense and independently decide whether a player represents a liability, anon, or else they risk players asking to effectively veto someone else from joining because they thought they looked their way funny in the grocery aisle. you have to protect your current playerbase's comfort within reason.

this happened in a game i was in back in the day. the mods had a policy where if x amount of players didn't want someone in a game, they had effective veto power over apps. players being caught abusing this privilege to prevent people from apping characters they reserved out from under their butt buddies was part of the reason the game ended up imploding.

Precisely

The current mod team has never ignored a player request not to allow someone in. Kit's a hardass about the current population's comfort and so is Epi, I think. (Neither are fans of Art or had anything to do with them becoming a mod. When those two stepped up Art "quit," too, which maybe was them kicking Art out.)

I forgot to add that the reason I know this is that there were two players who could not get along and when one of them violated the mod-mediated DNI they got kicked out of the game and I know it was noted that Kit who usually doesn't do player relation stuff because of being autistic was the one who went oh ffs no goodbye if you can't be that compliant.

Milk let in Art, and Sil has a ship with Magellan who also has a ship with Art. If you're gonna deet, deet correctly (and only use DEET bug spray on adults)

Milk also let in argustar and I pity the current mods who can't get rid of them now

i read that as 'argue star'

she has a rep for posting about herself on here and may be the one trying to shit stir about sil and kit, but contrary to the name she isn't really argumentative iirc.

cool story. sil's baphomet is fucking both characters. maybe he only loves one, but sil ships with both. sil has also shipped some of their other 15 million characters with art's other characters like reno too.

ayrt is correct and you are probably kit.

Why is kit so consistently such a freaking weirdo and who keeps letting her into games. She's just a walking list of excuses for why she can't play then wonders why everyone drops her ass.

why do so many wankers have 'kit' as a handle

i keep thinking we're talking about a raging, unrepentant racist and homophobe from back in the day who soul-bonded with his loli oc

anon why tf are you accusing someone of being a mod when you're also being a jerk who posts deets from a locked game, this looks very grudgewanky
