Doing this OOCly, because Janis doesn't want people to butt in on her entertainment and that means leading Ahume away from people around whom he doesn't want to talk freely.
Your previous ambassador or character or whatever talked about a WMD of the sort that "glasses" a planet's surface, if I remember correctly. Using that as an aggressor in any war breaks... well, let's settle for
lots of WA resolutions and on top of that your ambassador basically insulted all nations below whatever level 6 civilization is (and please don't give me a link, I honestly don't care), with the "they might worship us as gods".
I get it that you're on the Mass Effect Threeversum bandwagon in RP sense, like Wrapper is Stargåtean or whatever, and someone mentioned Minecraft somewhere, which I know even less of that Mass Effect, which I've only heard of told by a friend who likes those games. I've seen a Stargåte movie and part of one of the series, Minecraft I know exactly as much of as the Wikipedia article tells me and that's that.
I'm honestly left wondering if anyone aside from what, let's see, Bears, me, Liagolas... SP? Tinfect? Excidium? I don't know about you three a lot, in the RP sense, except SP throws some comparisons to Runescape's drinks, which I know a lot about (played since 2004), and could probably write a good spin-off RP based on the tons of lore that exist for that world plus my own gaming experience, but I don't want to rip off other people's worldcreating efforts and justify acting like a...
Yeah, going to stop myself there. I don't want Wrapper to have to jump out of character and whack me with RedText
TM, nor do I actually give a shit about who bases their RP on what, except as a multiple world-builder myself I view that as damn lazy. And
yes I have been in a writing club where we based our stories on a universe created by someone else, and I found it so restricting that I kept adding my own things, which others then adopted which then became canon for the club and not going further into that, but I know it's easier to take certain concepts, especially if there are easy links to provide for people who ask.
And yes, it's lazy. And yes, it's both easy and difficult at once. When you're restrained by the lore created by others, the best you can do is create
characters and evolve them further, like Wrapper has done magnificently. He doesn't keep throwing it into our faces all the time that his nation has some nullpoint energy field or whatever it was, and that they have the Stargates and whatnot, while the majority of nations around here haven't got FTL, in my case Araraukar doesn't even have its own space program, but partakes an ESA-type thing on its planet.
I get it, worldbuilding isn't for everyone. I do it for fun. And when bored. And when asleep. I write stories in those worlds, stories that might or might not end up being seen by others some day, but that's neither here nor there. (Mind you, some have been published.)
All this leads me to just stating this: don't you fucking dare to come complaining to me about my RP -
which includes everything I've set up on PPU and what little I have used WAKK on - being "monkeys throwing things at each other".

Or is it not an airway?
Oh, God, that's hilarious. That adds a whole new side to calling them "Squidwards".
