I said the same thing back then and was told that it’s because they became friends and wanted to keep in touch after they left the game which is fair. People have became friends for much less.

Just weird when they accuse others of brigading but maybe I’m not white knight enough or prolific enough of a poster to be invited to the Venat apostles discord and others are actually doing that too.

Yo, there is a Venat Discord? Hook me up.

I obviously have not been enough of a Venat simp if there is a Discord dedicated to her that I do not know about!

I'm hardly a Venat simp, so I'm not exactly looking for an invite, but I believe this is the first I've heard of an actual Venat discord. I'm sure one exists but I'm surprised that it hasn't been brought up more often.

A lot of the ones causing issues the past week or so? They're likely FROM that Discord. I recognize a number of them in the thread where that Discord spread around, and are the "usual suspects" for negativity on the game.

Hopefully things balance out now that the free login event is over. I'm not sure how much longer the forum access stays after one of those though.

Personally I hope things continue to spiral out of control so I have something to entertain me while I'm at work. I want everyone on all sides to get as unhinged as humanly possible.

People are posting that actually dare to disagree with you. Whatever shall we do. The sky is falling. The world is ending. The eighth umbral calamity is here to kill us all. Oh no.

We provide entertainment and content since Square Enix won't do it.

I take it a thing happened?

I think it's because Sassy and I tried to find Graha a girlfiend. SE is like "nope your stuck with him!"

I'd ask what I missed, but I don't think I actually want to know.

G'raha Tia will forever look like an annoying school girl to me with the way he looks and behaves. Doesn't seem like that will be remedied anytime soon either.

how is anyone suppose to take you serious when you have bar none, some of the worst annoying takes that you assume to be broadly held

I'd tell you, but it really would amount to 'not much'.

So all of those "step on me" folks are NOT guys with a fetish???

I thought catgirls, femroe and Viera are the pinnacle of sexyness for the average ERPer.

I thought Tias were banned from procreating.

I am not too big into the lore so I could be wrong.

I don't know if 'banned' is the right word, just not accepted in their cultural hierarchy within the Seekers. A Tia could certainly find a partner elsewhere, or they can challenge to become the Nunh. IIRC, per lore I believe there are instances where Tias may leave to form their own tribe (thus becoming the Nunh). Seekers basically have the Lion pride structure.

Tias are banned from mating withen their own tribe.

Literally nothing is said about tias going off to marry lizard people though

Yeah, that's a genetic diversity thing, but I was more referencing Tias in a general sense (since the post didn't specify about it being within their own tribe). All Tias everywhere are not "banned" from mating, all I was saying.

Oh come now. It's not outside the realm of possibility for women to want their heads crushed between them watermelon-cracker thighs. I stand for gender equality, and so should you.

Nothing against that. Somehow i suspect 98% of those "step on my big femroe"-players to be males, just like catgirl players.

You're free to think such, of course. I meanwhile, prefer to remain freebrained of constraining stereotypes. Not that I think all that much about who's sitting on the other side of the screen. I typically address players by their model gender unless otherwise prompted, thankfully players are rather openminded in this one.

I do that aswell. Want a cookie?

You just choose to be blind and word it aggressively & condescending. That "I'm not seeing <stereotype>" can be done on repeat forever but in the end somehow girls buy more toy horses than boys do.


But you are having a lot of predefined views on forum posters:

I really hate people that think they are better than everyone else

Look if anyone ever asks me if I want a cookie, please just assume the answer is "yes." I clearly want all of the cookies.
