(from the same gender breeding thread) 'I do not like the implication that will come with it, specifically that having children is requisite for two individuals to actually be a pair.' Genuinely, what the fuck are you talking about

didn't you know? same gender pairings aren't REAL pairings!

someone wants to get art from me in the art sales forum, which is great, but i am very intimidated after checking their references. they are good references, but it feels like i am here cooking instant noodles only to have gordon ramsay show up and ask for some. what can i possibly give this person that they could not do themselves a thousand times better?

Fer all of FR's faults and issues... I'm glad they didn't pull an Eldemore on the player base for the site recode.

Is it possible to commission a custom skin for rlc or is that considered rmt? Unsure of what the rules are on that before I do anything, I don't want to accidentally rmt

you could suggest that every user gets cookies and a puppy and c from plague would make sure to let you know they don't support it

thorntails and guardians are literally the only dragons that actually look like dragons the rest are all just some bullshit. cirrus are horses. spirals are snakes. coatls are cats. snapper are turtles. wildclaws are literally just raptors which are the least dragon-like of any dinosaur. its all just some bullshit. you may as well slap wings on a dog and call it the fluffywing. but cirrus dont even have wings so sure why not just literally a dog.

bait as fuck to come to the dragon salt blog, say that the most European dragon designs are the only ones that "look" like dragons, and then not look at the classical depiction of European dragons in medieval art where they had the heads or bodies/limbs of mammals (rats, dogs, lions, bears, humans), an abundance of fur, or looked like absolute goobers

I put in a ticket around a month ago about being scammed out of art. staff banned the person but never gave me my stuff back. this was around 60kg worth of stuff. staff closed my ticket as soon as they were like "well look into this" and I asked for updates, they never gave me any and I've been asking "am I getting the stuff I was scammed out of back" and haven't gotten a reply in over a month. what do I do

open a new ticket and link to your old ticket, asking about resolution on the items you didn't get back. you will need to prove that all negotiation and valuation was done on-site with links to forums or messages- off-site negotiations like on discord will not apply here as they can't moderate anything communicated off FR. link to the trade you sent the items and currency in to that other person, showing what was traded.

So it looks like someone made yet ANOTHER anonymous FR salt community on Dreamwidth, just FYI. Personally I think I'm done with these communities because if they keep falling apart, maybe it's for a reason??? But if that's something you're interested in still, it's out there. Guess we'll see what becomes of it.

anonymity and allowing namedrops brings out the worst in people. ARR was not without flaw, but it served the important purpose of information- something SMR sorely lacks far too often despite mods setting rules for proof- at the price of people emboldened to say and do horrendous things. it was hardly ARR's fault for the actions of people who don't know how to be decent living entities, outside of providing information and allowing a space for conversation. the mods did what they could, but it's an exhausting job.

oh damn, ARR is GONE gone? They didn't even leave the posts up?? I mean I get wanting to delete pointless bickering but ARR was more than that, a lot of FR history was also preserved on there so... I guess we must use archive.org for that now...? God, even the original old AR is still up. And I want to emphasize that while everyone is within their right to delete the things they own/post, if it's something content-heavy with years and years of contributions (yes, even a drama community) think about media preservation for 2 seconds holy fuck. Well anyway I wish the ARR mods the best, no shade to them I just think hitting the delete button was a bit of an overkill move; maybe one of these days, ARRR will be created and the cycle may begin again.

a good time to remind people that you shouldn't make any single platform your library of Alexandria.

Hey does anyone know if you can report off site harassment or is that out of staff's hands? Had a user follow me offsite to Twitter to continue to yell at me abt not selling them a dragon after I blocked on site 😭😭

@avrammai

thinking about coming back to fr after years but then i went to the dev tracker and found all the bs they had to deal with recently and remembered why i quit in the first place

Can we drop the house metaphor. They're not building a ramp they're replacing the entire backend of a site and the CSS with it and need user input on the latter half. It's not just a ramp it's an overhaul. There WILL be more changes to every single page that isn't responsive and that does mean there will be more constant back and forth feedback and it'll go smoother if people aren't starting fights over it. Lets work together now that its here

You people are so illiterate. Yes, it’s gaslighting to be told the update is up to accessibility standards when it actually never was, and to have a sizable chunk of the playerbase telling you just to “stop playing” is fucked up, especially when the site was more accessible for some groups of people before the update. The ableism from some of the people responding to posts on this accounts is incomprehensible. You choose to misinterpret what anon’s are saying and look for problems where there aren’t any problems and talk over actual disabled people this update is negatively affecting. Ridiculous.

your words scan with a fascinating level of confidence, despite being the one choosing to misinterpret others and use words with extremely specific meaning wrong.

i really, really do appreciate that the devs are doing a lot of quick updates and using the correct accessibility checks now, but nevertheless it did come across a little like gaslighting being told that you're the problem and that you should stop playing for a while. i'm just happy its being corrected. i want to move on from this and enjoy the event.

staff said to avoid doing things with newly introduced issues to features that you know could cause you harm *for your safety* (https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/bug/3473228/103#post_60629889). they do not want you gone; you playing is how they stay in business, but they care enough to express that it's good to take a break from specific features if they cause you problems.

With muscle memory I keep clicking on account settings now instead of my notifications lol Also now that I don’t constantly see my beastiary number, I don’t keep thinking how I’m missing 3 more sprites. It’s weird 🤷🏼‍♀️ and also making me loose the will to grind for them. But sugar to how fast pages load now. 100% love that.

I see staff are in their "Just do shit and have the players beta test it in live" phase
