neopsychedelia

If you guys hate magic being used in combat so much why don’t you just make it illegal, rather than taking it out on the whole magic community? Not all of us are interested in playing dramatic anime characters who couldn’t even fight a child with a rock and a good throwing arm.

Unfortunately, this wouldn’t really fit with what we’re doing. Sorry.

Interested in playing an Atronach or Animati character? A new group is developing and we’re looking for competent roleplayers to fill these roles. We’d like to offer a lot of freedom for these characters to develop in whichever direction the player would like, within a few limitations. If you’re interested or have questions, hit me up on discord at: neopsychedelia#0313

Why do you put on a persona of toxicity on the forums? Is it an act or is it a projection of how you really feel? How much of what you say do you actually stand by? Is there something about tactlessness you find fashionable?

The pvp community (or the part of that community) at fault for toxicity, trolling and malicious roleplay has had an undeniable history of this behavior within and without actual raids. This happens with your typical bandits all the time, for example. This isn't some growing resentment toward the rules how they are, and even if it was, that kind of behavior would still be in no way appropriate. What you're proposing is not a solution to toxicity; you're offering a dangerous degree of power to a community that already does its' best to skirt the line of acceptability, in an apparent attempt to appease these players who've shown no precedence toward wanting to better themselves or their behaviors. These rules have been built up for a reason and like I've said, this collective behavior needs to change before something like this rewrite can even be considered.

If you really believe that pvp-related toxicity and 'memery' has anything to do with the cap on raids then you must misunderstand this community on a fundamental level.

It's difficult to build a case against people whose characters are motivated from an ill-intentioned OOC place. This combined with how lenient (or aloof) staff have been in regards to this behavior in the past means that a lot of people, including myself would rather not have to deal with the burden of presenting these issues. Frankly, it should be the place of the moderators to take initiative in these situations where they're able, and leave the example that they actually do care about having these problems resolved. Until then, I think it's entirely inappropriate to suggest these cumulative changes in the community's current overall social climate.

is the point of this rewrite to make raids as disruptive as possible to actual roleplay or what

Narcissism is a big problem on LotC and there is a culture of bullying that is essentially rewarded. I think to say it's "full of psychopaths and sadists" is a bit of overstatement for what is essentially childish tribalism for the socially inept. That isn't to say there's no such people on LotC; I'm quite confident otherwise, actually. Ultimately, the root of the issue is and has always been with the staff who are responsible for the direction of the community at large. The fact that it's gotten as severe as it is now is very telling.

i will but u gotta add me first (:

i'm not happy with lotc, i probably won't come back add me at neopsychedelia#0313 if you want to chat

i mean why wouldn't you

hey thanks man

see if mc.lotc.co works for you

Usually because it's considered a sort of milestone in the popularity contest of lotc. If you want a sense of power or importance, that's the way to go about deluding yourself.

You know, it's not impossible to lift the techlock while still excluding potentially overpowered elements like guns.

maybe try writing something with the slightest measure of creativity or intrigue next time

source dark souls also while ur at it

what do the FMs even do around here

stop fkn misusing that word "edgy"
