Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
anti-cat gimmicks are rather cringe but perhaps not as cringe as larping as your anime cat waifu in a space pixel game

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
And since this is thread is likely to attract some relevant parties ; if you're a non antag and you're screwing over another players round significantly you can expect to get some admin pushback there. Including bans if you get them killed. While xenophobia is IC allowed, there's nothing deeper in administration rulings that cares about the player's species.WineAllWine wrote: ↑Wed Mar 16, 2022 12:36 amthis thread was sponsored by 2 consecutive terry shifts
IF your goal is to torture felinids, maybe ask the admins to spawn in a couple of catatonics you can then go play your weird RP torture fantasies with.
If that's not good enough and you require your tortured felinids to be sentient, then actually your goal is just to be a dick to another player, possibly because of their choices, possibly because its a convenient excuse.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
Xenophobia is boring. Find other things to discriminate on, like jumpsuit color or something. It wouldn't even be that bad if it wasn't just THE SAME JOKE over and over. Spam-pointing at someone and saying "filthy cat beast anime waifu ERPer" and then laughing your ass off is boooooooooooo-riiiiiiiiiiiiing. It's like the attack helicopter joke.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
The third sentence is more important here than the first. The problem I have specifically with anti-felinid gimmicks is that they are almost universally exactly the fucking same. If you make it subtle or actually, you know, not an LRP excuse to be a dick to other players under a vague pretense of RP, then it has great storytelling potential. In fact, I'll admit a degree of fault here and remand my statement:Farquaar wrote: ↑Wed Mar 16, 2022 10:21 pmXenophobia is far from boring.

I've also noticed when people play xenophobic characters it pretty much becomes their whole bit. Anything resembling rp begins and ends at "i hate lizards".
Aside from that they're either complete silence NRP shitters or just generally unpleasant to deal with. Obviously this doesn't apply to all xenophobic characters, but it happens more often than not.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
People are just vocal about lizards because they're the other dominant species so we can all play rough. You don't see people actually bullying lizards in a way they wouldn't a human. From an OOC perspective, they fit the setting and vibe much more seamlessly than hamfisted catgirl anime waifus, all of whom have gaudy neon hair.Valorium wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 2:03 pmWhat do you mean? 75% of the time, when I see IC xenophobia as a gimmick, it's almost exclusively against lizards.massa wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 2:02 pmso is having cringe shit like catgirl waifus clogging up the spaceman game lol lizards and moths don't get this treatment for a reasonValorium wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 12:49 pmThe third sentence is more important here than the first.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
I do actually see a fair amount of lizard-bullying focused on their race in a way that is distinct from humans, but that's beside the point. Bullying players for playing a race you dislike OOC is less of a solution than pursuing external changes. I suppose the question to ask oneself is "to what degree is my opposition to felinids as a race legitimately motivated by writing consistency or motivated by the server culture (which is a thinly-veiled way of saying circlejerk) saying that's what I'm supposed to do?" I'm not accusing you of anything in either way; I can understand the universal consistency argument.massa wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 2:07 pmPeople are just vocal about lizards because they're the other dominant species so we can all play rough.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
I still remember this old round maybe five years ago where the HoS and Captain were “”roleplaying”” space Ss officers, coralling lizardmen to the labor camp, removing their tails and forcing them to perma in labor camp because “liggers had no rights”. I remember being pissed that I was stuck in permacamp for a race choice and ahelped for law 1. I was told it was an IC issue.
So unless I’m missing something I’m pretty sure someone picking a fight with your cat OC isnt that problematic.
Edit: When in doubt, escalate to a kill over racism and start the forum fire of a century with that sweet appeal peanut.

yeah discriminating against any group of players even if it's just based on things like species or job is pretty shit tbh (unless they're bald or from centcom, which is fine)

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
For every anti felinid gimmick there's a felinid going about doing an uwu gimmick, it's simply yin and yang.

Re: Stop doing anti-felinid gimmicks
felinids being hated is pretty much the only interesting part of their characterisation
plays as Argon CVI, Sleigherburgo D'Fuckreby and Dr Hambold P. Qumer, PhD. on terry and manuel
