I give up on furcadia
18 years ago
Tried going back to playing furcadia and then I end up figuring out why I stopped playing in the first place. If you don't have friends that are on furcadia already, don't start playing, everyone and there grandmother will just ignore you no matter how polite you might act. If you try to say hi then you risk insulting the multitude of rp snobs who take offense at you not being ic while you speak to them. Then on the other hand, if you try to post something to start an rp they will try to gut you because you don't write with Shakespearian quality, or didn‘t use a semicolon. Then if you do manage to get all that right on your first go then they are already busy and you risk freaking out someone who isn't an rp snob who now things you are because of the quality of your writing. So you are left to pick through the endless stream of random 13 year olds who want to "fcK ur as!!1!" or some such nonsense.
You just cant sit and talk to anyone >.=.< Unless of course, as I said before, you already had friends on there. Even those that claim to be nice and friendly, wont give you the time of day. Is it because they were lying? Maybe not, they may in fact be nice, but they are to busy being nice to the friends they already have to pay attention to you. Not that I can really complain about that. It makes sense that they would want to stick to the friends they have than to talk to some stranger, so that last complaint should be omitted.
I would be on sl, at least I can make things there, but sadly my internet connection at home only connects at 9kbps. I also freeze up anytime I try to upload anything new, due to my awesome connection. So I guess I'll just have to wait until I go back to college before I pop back up in any constructive way on the internet. Until then I'll just vent lol.
