Our avatars are posting on a forum thread.

Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

that was exactly my intention, haha. Knowing Alhaitham, it was whatever Genshin’s equivalent of the Vaporeon copypasta was.

Oh, yeah, Stefan! On the topic of academics, we have finally resolved most of the issues of the Akademiya! We had to fire 4 of the 6 Sages (the academic leadership), including the Grand Sage, but we believe we have done the best we can to eliminate the corrupt practices. The only two sages remaining, the ones imprisoned for being opposed to the plan of creating a new god, are those of Amurta (biology) and Vahumana (history). Of course, it will still take quite some time to fully develop an ethical system. Alhaitham, the only active Akademiya member who was involved in saving Kusanali, was a Haravatat scholar (linguistics), so he was offered a position as the Grand Sage and Sage of Haravatat. He declined, but the Akademiya was left without a Grand Sage, so he was forced to temporarily take the position. He still refers to himself exclusively as the Scribe, though.

Just a wanderer.

Grats on the successful mission! I don't think anything can stand in your way, honestly.

Btw are there any spots for mathematics professors? Because if that's the case, I might try to become a calculus prof myself.

If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong.

[up][up] There might be a few positions open in Kshahrewar, but what’s there is probably closer to theoretical engineering/physics and puzzle analysis than pure mathematics. The Darshans are quite broad though, so I’ll see.

GatsbyHimself has logged on

Hello there, old sport! The name's Gatsby. Jay Gatsby. I found this peculiar thing when making a deal with a particular friend. It took me and him a while to figure it out. Now, I happen to be decently well off and throw parties almost every day at my mansion located at West Egg, Long Island. I'm sure you can find it easily. Word spreads quickly and the parties have hundreds attending!"

[1] Welcome to the thread! Thanks for the offer, but I live halfway across the globe and probably in another universe, so...

[2] Wait what. Holy bug, these wargears look awesome, I wanna make one.

Gil, Tarvek, you up for a contest? 100*100*100m max size, the wargears can drive around, and their only method of attack is launching explosives?

Edit: [3] Noted. There's still a decent bit of maths to be had in puzzles, but I suppose we'll see. Maybe I can introduce informatics? /j

Also, Icarus, you're making a wargear? I wanna watch

Sorry we were gone for so many hours.
Yeah, lots of unexpected work all coming at once.
But anyhow,
[1] Thank you for responding, Cornered. I hope you do well today.

Also, there's a new user here today!
[2] Welcome here, Herr Gatsby. I am Prince Tarvek Sturmvoraus. My associate here is Gilgamesh Wulfenbach.
Long Island, you say? Isn't that in the Americas? I've never been there before.
As for mansions, I used to have a castle before this one battle happened.

We'll see you when you come back from the party, Herr Gatsby!



EDIT: I can't believe I missed this one. [3]

Gil, Tarvek, you up for a contest? 100*100*100m max size, the wargears can drive around, and their only method of attack is launching explosives?

You mean in Minecraft or in real life?

[1] I'm planning to do this in their homeworld - maybe on the local moon or on the next closest planet under an armored biosphere, depending on how explosive the battle gets, so hopefully that shouldn't be a concern?
