Neutral Ground - an Open Discussion Thread

Postby Crazy girl » Sun Oct 23, 2011 11:05 pm

This is the Gameplay forum "chat thread". What this means is that general discussion that would be off-topic in another topic, and doesn't warrant a thread of its own should go here.

Please note:
  • This is the Gameplay chat thread - and thus posts here should be to do with gameplay. It is not to discuss what you had for breakfast (try a chat program for that) and it is not to discuss non-gameplay NS matters, such as your latest roleplay. Take that to the correct forum.
  • This is the only chat thread allowed in this forum. Do not attempt to turn other threads (such as a region's news thread) into a chat thread.
  • If there is already a thread for a matter/event (such as an invasion), please discuss it in the dedicated thread. We don't want conversations spread across multiple threads. That just gets confusing.
  • If there is not a dedicated thread for a matter/event, but you think it may get a significant amount of discussion, post one.
  • Don't use this thread for recruiting - that's just tacky.
  • The normal forum rules apply to this thread. The "three strikes" system listed in the original OP has never been applied here, and won't be. That doesn't mean you can misbehave. We're watching you Image
  • This thread is not meant to be overly-serious. Try to maintain a sense of humour.

Is an announcement of NS Marriages off-topic here?

No, though that wasn't the initial reason for posting this thread. I've been working on this idea for weeks, and have just had the time tonight to finally put things up. As I've edited in above, there are 3 chat threads currently up and running, thinking those three should more or less cover the bases.

If you want to announce to your NS friends that you're having an NS wedding, I don't see a problem with it, or some minor discussion/congrats going on about it. Just don't rp it out here or what not - you can take a good deal of that off-site or to a more appropriate setting.

I would help open the bar, in the tradition of Strangers Bar and 3WB, but bars are roleplay :P

In such case, happy chatting in this *thread* everyone!

Since I'm running for Osiris WAD, I suppose technically I'm a gameplayer now.

So...er...hi.

My name is Vortiaganica, and I'm a gameplayer. Now.

Is there a book or something? Some sort of brochure I can use to set up a withdrawal timeline?

Alright...so, anyone want to start up actual chatting? Feels sort of like an awkward silence...just entering a conversation with an open tail.

Nope NS Marriages are run on IRC; if I have one you're invited. You can erm... *play* the cranky aunt. ;)

How have you been? Eaten many rainbows? Held a wedding? Invaded Zimbabwe?

Have you done everything you can think to do?
Have you made good use of the life God gave to you?
Have you seen the light and thought better of those you meet?
Have you stopped to think and make your home neat?

Did you stop to smell a rose on the way down the road,
Did you think of leaving a kind message on your RM Board?
Do those you love know you love them?
Do the people you call friends still wait in the closet where you put them, or have the cops found their bodies already?

Hah - shows what you know. My sister is the cranky aunt. I'm actually the fun one who plays the games with the kids, buys them treats, and tries to spoil them rotten. I hardly ever get to see the little darlings, so it's only right. :P

Reppy - don't make me hurt you! *tiredly shakes a fist*

If you mean to say that you secretly weren't hoping that Reppy would do it, would get warned/banned, and would be forced to file an appeal ( via GHR trolololol ) you're lying.

Much lolz would be had.

I was more enjoying the fact that my little poem forced a reaction from Reppy that she could not post. :)

But your story is much more interesting.

Okay folks, while there are some people that have doubts about the experiment, we've gotten enough of a consensus to at least give this thing a try. Remember, this is not a roleplaying forum, don't flame/bait/harass other players, and so on and so forth.

Make us proud, guys!
