VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[InfiniteIgnorance]

Well, thank you for finally admitting you're a troll.

I feel a big part of the problem is that most times when you're trying to be sarcastic, you simply come across as offensive, and when you're trying to be funny, you come across as serious.

Either that, or...

It is impossible to know the context of words on the internet without knowing the person using the words.

I think the biggest problem here is that most of you have been here a long time and you have had a long time to learn enough about each other to understand the context of each other's posts. I am relatively new here and not a frequent user of these types of forums or of forums in general. I'm sure there's an unspoken etiquette in using this forum that extends beyond the forum rules. I'm sure I don't know it. I'm sure most of you do. I'm sure part of the reason we don't understand each other's humor is because there are things that people who use these forums regularly don't expect from other users of these forums, one of which is probably language which is hard to decipher. Intent is impossible to determine without asking and undoubtedly no one wants to have to ask every time I post. So, let's approach this from the perspective of me being the new person or the outsider trying to learn how to fit in rather than the perspective of someone just looking to be a disruption because it's possible.

We all enjoy this game or we wouldn't be here.

Josy and Jill are gonna surprise some peoples for sure. it's all very basic storytelling

Jill might surprise people by being more sexual than people think she would be once that dam wall breaks, and Josy might surprise people by revealing herself to be quite selfish, thinking only of herself and willing to throw other people away (something we saw a bit of in Ep 3). But any surprise involving Josy and Jill doing things together is not "basic storytelling", it's jumping the shark.

Do you guys think the patch will work with the compressed version from here?

 

[Casmyr]

Just did a fresh m+j run
How could I forget in doing so I was throwing away Jade.
Hold me brothers

No.

I suspect this will be the case but given how tough a nut she has been to crack thus far the question is:

What will be the breaking point? The concert? Something sooner?

using emotes helps convey context. They are a more universal language that people understand more easily

if you are being sarcastic, is a great way to let it be known

if you are being harsh on purpose, helps convey that

my advice is use more emotes if people keep misinterpreting your intentions

and I was not even imply this in this specific comment of mine .

but the fact that you thought about this by your own, is prove me right, that deep down , not only you believe it's possible, but you are as guilty as I am and you wanting it to happen. .

If you want to fit and you dont know how, the issue is simple. Dont move the focus on yourself, because we dont care to much about each other, and we will reject someone who wants to be THE issue of the forum. What we are talking about right now, the game? No, and you are going to loose there. If someone confronts your ideas, he has nothing against you, he is interested in the argument, so keep your focus on the argument. If someone makes a joke about you, joke back, laugh or pretend you laugh. If you are wrong then say it. Give other people their time to shine, when they are funny or smart. Is not because we know each other, is male sociability. Is different from female sociability, not better or worse but it is how it is.

Hey... I just finished Acting Lessons and wanted to share with you that I started to cry. This game is amazing, but... It broke me apart. How could you do this... How... ;(

A Josy and Jill threesome is less likely than a Maya and Quinn threesome.

[vehemental]

Ponytails are a very heterosexual hairdo.

...is what you'd say if you've never seen a girls' soccer team.

There, I fixed the delivery of your joke

 

[Kellermann]

laugh at the poor

I know that was directed at me, the resident poverty-stricken person here. You wound me sir, you wound me.

You're the one who keeps mentioning Josy and Jill in the same sentence and are always talking about how they'll "surprise" people.

Knowing your thoughts on them, it's easy to read between the lines.

As far as unspoken etiquette, I say whatever's on my mind about the game and sometimes other topics in here. I was born without a filter and I'm kinda glad of that. I do use a lot of emotes and gifs though, and my real life personality is pretty much exactly like my personality on here.
You are correct in saying that for the most part, we kinda understand the context of each other's posts... it seems everyone regularly posting here has a certain personality that's to be expected in their posts.
