@Cynder Oh wow. Rough times eh?

Look man, you are the GM and I respect that (to a reasonable extent). You have a good RP here, and I mean no offense.

Then again, if you can't take a "point of view", then you shouldn't give your own opinion, right? With all due respect, consider this your "be a better human being" lecture.

@6slyboy6

Look dude if you're just going to be an asshole and them claim LOL SARCASM 7 posts in like everyone knew just leave.

So you give her attitude after she politely asks whats going on, then you bitch when she "shat on you" when she gives you attitude back. Double Standards much? Is this your idea of a joke or something? Because it isn't funny at all if that was your intent, and just makes you out to be an ass. Even if it was sarcasm you pretty much decided to say stupid shit that was confrontational and you never clarify you're joking. Because there wasn't a moment where I could tell it was clear sarcasm because it read like you meant it.

With all due respect you're being unnecessarily difficult and an overall dick. All of your posts towards the GM were hostile in nature, and at no point did you actually explain yourself until now, which is fucking stupid, if it was actually sarcasm.

Either you were too dense to realize your words make you sound like a prick, or you thought being a prick was funny. Somehow. I'm not sure which is worse.

September 4th, 2015 || Day One || Wilson Fuch

"No need to whisper man. We're pretty much in the clear. Yeah, I'm cool with her coming. The more the merrier right?" Anyways, Wilson doubted the old geezer would be too busy rambling about his bio class to notice that there were two people possibly ditching. Even then the three could probably bolt out the gates or something. It was the the first week, not like the school would care about it just yet. Probably would think it was just some new kids that interpreted the bell schedule incorrectly.

"It's me. I am here. What is happening?" Sam's friend announced her arrival with... oddity? Wilson wasn't sure of his first impression of the girl. Quirky? Weird? Strange? She greeted Wilson in an unusual style, while extending her hand out for a handshake. "It is nice to meet you." Wilson also decided to greet Ava warmly. "Ava right? Any friend of Sam's is a friend of mine." While Sam probably hated most of his new friends, Wilson carried no animosity towards Sam's. He really had no reason to, and the most negative thoughts were probably Wilson's comments on how strange Sam's friends were.

Wilson's phone rang again. He quickly scrolled to his messages and scanned the contents of Ashley's text.

From: Ashley
Is sushi okay? Or if you want, you can come over and we can use the giant home theater to watch something on Netflix?
What are you in the mood for?

"Just one sec guys. Gotta text the girlfriend." After excusing himself for a moment, Wilson swiftly wrote up a text to reply to Ashley.

To: Ashley @karamonnom
Sushi's fine. Sure, we can watch something after.

"Anyways.. I'm going to see if we can't get one more." Wilson scrolled through his contacts, attempting to find someone Sam wouldn't chew out because he hated them or something. Which was pretty much 99% of his contact list unfortunately. Wilson was about to give up before he stopped on the contact The Tutor. Wilson didn't think Sam had any ill will towards Ashton, as far as he knew, so Wilson typed up a quick text.

To: Ashton @Cynder
Uhhh. So I know we don't really talk much, but if you don't have a tutoring session with Ashley, you mind coming with us just to hang? Kinda just weird with Sam and his odd friend, and you're probably the only other person I know that he can tolerate.

Ny Tem || Casual Section || Bumpin into Cynder

Interacting with:@Cynder

Ever since the new expansion for the guild dropped, it was pretty chaotic. Seemed like it was an invasion event, and every single person on the server was going to take part in the fight against the new enemy, the K-Bots. Hell, they even had someone broadcasting information on where all the major battles were taking place. Ny Tem would have joined the event earlier, but he had been busy stuffing everything possible into his pack in perpetration. Seemed a bit odd he could carry dozens of swords in there, along with trail rations, water, and several armor sets, but hey, Ny Tem wasn't complaining. The rulebook said he wasn't out of inventory slots yet, so who cared?

Ny tem, being on the roof of an apartment building, could see explosions off in the distance. It must have been all of those operations the Terminal had been talking about. Either the players of RPG were finally making a counter offensive, or they were getting their asses handed to them by the machines. To be honest, he had little faith that RPG would be able to contain the threat for long. Too many mobs fr everyone to handle. God damn, didn't the person that dropped this expansion do some beta testing?

"Fucking buggy releases..." It wouldn't be the first time anyway, but Ny Tem would have to deal with it anyway until the mods decided to patch the broken game mode. Which would probably be months. Unless the community bitched about it enough, maybe something would be done within the week. Who knows? Maybe the mods would even shut down the expansion until further notice.

However, his thoughts were interrupted as a loud knock and screaming pierced the air.

"I swear to god if there's a fucking squatter up there!"

Well shit. It was only a matter of time before the landlord figured out there was a hobo on his roof. Well, looks like Ny Tem would have to stealth his way outta this one. He took out his mystical D20s and rolled for his stealth check and acrobatics check. The first die stopped on 20. "NOICE!" Now all Ny Tem would need was a good acrobat-

He got a 1. "... Goodbye world." Ny Tem merely stepped rolled the roof stealthily, screamed all the way down stealthily, and finally smacked into the ground stealthily. There was no noise to indicate his suffering, his pain. Luckily Ny Tem's armor took most of the brunt of the fall, so he was just bruised, nothing broken just yet. Ny Tem brushed off the dust and dirt he had gathered from the fall, which was when he looked up and noticed Cynder was right in front of him.

"Oh. Long time no see eh? You're Cynder right?" Ny Tem saw she had packed things as well, most likely because of the invasion. "Going to fight on the front lines too? Last I remember you were more of the running type."

@Nytem4re
Is it just the ultimate goal of those here to ignore literally everything I sat that doesn't fit their frame that they have created?

@LegendBegins

Is it just your ultimate goal to pretend you didn't make a crap analogy and expect everyone else to magically understood what you said?

Okay, you said "Following that vein of thought, so is child pornography."

And so everyone told you smut does not equal child porn. But then you claim it isn't that.

You then explain your analogy was to show "...is that the simple fact that something is an established genre does not mean it needs to be encouraged or given easy access to for minors."

And child porn is encouraged and easily accessed where? Last I checked merely searching child porn will have you put on a list. You'd have to go onto the dark web to actually find anything like that. And I would hardly say it's an "established genre".

Smut itself is hardly that illegal, nor is it that persecuted.

it was a poor analogy, and the only way people could have perceived it was a morality issue. Nothing you said really made the analogy any better nor did it make your argument any more coherent. Which I'm still confused about atm really.

Mahz's Dev Journal

<Snipped quote> Quite oppositely, I'm stating that such concerns are unfounded, and that having respective clauses in rules is enough to clear up any misconceptions, should anyone have those, as well as back up our legal standing.

Reading comprehension, folks.

(Also, I'm a she.)

@Shienvien

My bad on both accounts then. Reading it made it seem that way anyway, and rereading it I assumed that was it's message, but I see now I have made a mistake. I sincerely apologize about that. And the he thing, I usually use that pronoun for everyone, so I'm sorry for that too.

But that just proves my point about legend that your arguments are not the same fundamentally anyway.

Mahz's Dev Journal

Never implied it is. It was more against the notion that people might interpret such tags as also endorsing more dubious activities. If we clearly and unambiguously state that people will have to abide by US state and their local laws in whatever they do here, and that any breaking of such laws, if caught, won't go unpunished, then it won't by no means interfere with people doing whatever legal they wish as long as they keep to any other guild rules (including writing 18+ content in PM).

@Shienvien

Except we already enforce rules against smut out on the public forums.

As long as no one actually attempts smut rp in the public forums, no rules are being broken. It's already acknowledged that it's a PM thing only. All you need to do is read up on the rules and you can already see we don't endorse having smut rp out in the open. besides, people put 18+ in the title of their 1x1 thread. There's no point in really hiding that.

Just google rpg +18 and you will get results anyway.

There is nothing to indicate that the guild supports breaking US federal law, or any other kind of minor protection laws.

My perspective and Shienvien's have essentially no differences, as far as I can tell.

@LegendBegins

Actually they do. Shienvien states he is afraid the 18+ tag might endorse dubious activity, and is worried about the legal aspect. which I disagree with, but you bring up different points, while they may be similar in nature, they are completely different.

You seem to be stuck on the morality part of it. You LITERALLY compare child porn to smut, as if you think smut is somehow just as bad as child porn?

I would even venture to say you are "virtue signaling", essentially telling the guild no because THINK OF THE CHILDREN.

That may have not been your intention, but your posts make me feel you have an issue with smut itself rather than the addition of a 18+ tag, which kitty points out has been around for ages.

Wilson heard a slight ding, informing him that he had received a new text. He rummaged through his pockets, sifting through miscellaneous wrappers and other crap before managing to get a sturdy grip on his phone. Wilson turned on his screen to find he had received a text from Ashley. It was probably to ask him to go out with her tonight again, as she did every other day.

From: Ashley Hart
Hey babe! Did you want to do something tonight? <3

@karamonnom

Ashley... was predictable at least, but it didn't really make the relationship any better. Ashley always wanted to be around him, and quite frankly, it was emotionally tolling. Before Ashley, after practice Wilson would usually go home, but now he found himself being dragged along to do god knows what. The times Wilson would decline usually meant Ashley texting him all night anyway, so he found it more productive to just go along with her plans. She was sweet but... Ashley was too much for him. In fact, Wilson couldn't bear to actually try and break up with her. Not to mention the awkward interactions his normal group would have when they would figure out they weren't a thing anymore.

To: Ashley Hart
Uh. Sure I guess. Where did you want to go this time?

At least Wilson still had a few moments of peace before he would inevitably go out with Ashley tonight. It also probably meant Wilson should do go hang out with other people that didn't try and hog all his time. Wilson sprinted down the hallways, narrowly crashing into pretty much anyone that was in his way, and he soon found himself in front of the door to the cranky old biology teacher's classroom. Wilson was pretty sure the old teacher stopped caring about actually teaching since he had tenure and was about to retire anyway. He wouldn't be surprised, seeing how the bio class was utter shit. Wilson took out his phone and texted his friend Sam, who was probably about to kill himself from the horrors of boredom in bio.

To:Sam
Suh dude? I know you don't do shit in bio anyway, so just say you need to go to the bathroom and ditch school with me fam. I'm right outside the door.

@VarionusNW

When Wilson was sure the bio teacher wasn't facing him, he stuck in face in the window and produced a middle finger in the bio teacher's direction, while mouthing the words eat shit. Oh, and Wilson waved at Sam too.

"Nippon Steel gives me +2 to attack fam. Didn't you read the rulebook?"

What is your name? Do you have any nicknames? Please include them.
Names Ny, then Tem. Don't give me that look. I clicked on random name this campaign dude.

What is your gender?
Pretty sure I said on my sheet that I'm rolling a male.

How old are you?
How long has this campaign been going? Eh. I forgot.

What species are you? Please include details about said species.
I only play humans. I never roll anything else. Humans are the master RACE.

What abilities and powers do you have? Do you have any expertise or “special skills”? Please include them.
You see, my main thing is rolling the mystical D20s. They can either help me do great things, or smite me as I roll two 1s. It's a sad lyfe man. Here's my stat tree doe.

STR:16
DEX:15
CON:9
INT:8
WIS:8
CHA:15

Are you skilled in certain types of combat? What type of weapon do you typically wield?
I got swords. Lots of swords. Though my combat skill is generally based on the mystical D20s. Roll high, I'm prob gonna fuk shit up. If not, I'm probably breaking another sword. Or my foot again.

What equipment do you typically carry into battle? Or feel comfortable carrying into battle?
I got some sick loot drops, so I got some tight ass armor. I also got some other random shit like tinderboxes and lockpicks, but who cares about that?

Are you affiliated with any other organization? If so, please say who and your rank.
I've been in that party called the Oldfucks. Sorta.

Where in Guild City are you from?
Casual.

What has your life been like so far?
Well I first rolled this samurai character some time back. Prob last month. Or was it last year? Anyway, I've got my D20s, which are the source of my power... and the cause of my failures. I also got my divine rulebook who's laws I cannot break. For it is the all knowing GM who brought these words to me, and I'd very much not want to get smited by the GM in this campaign I'm in.

To be honest, I think I went through most of the content, but just as I was getting bored, the GM dropped this whole new Bots Expansion. It's like some sort of invasion event. Seems pretty god damn cool tbh. The bots seem a bit strong, but good thing I have the best late-game equipment.

NOT TO MENTION SOME SICK NEW LOOT BRUHHHHHH

Would you like to include any additional information that we may have missed?
Just... try and bear with me if I roll 1s.
