UPDATE: Melody's Blog 4/30/04

Another Friday! Wow what a long week it has been.

N.O.I.S.E. protestors wandering all over town, picketing around the offices of Ideltech, Krystal being rescued and alive, and me getting hired as an employee by Ideltech Information!

I wonder if Marcus even noticed my application in the pile, or if Jude just hired everyone that sent in an application. LOL. I wonder if they offer flex time, it would be nice to keep my job at the Round Up Cafe.


Hmmmm.... I was thinking the same thing.

Actually, there was more to the 4-30 update.

I'm not certain what to make of this conversation but after Krystal's kidnapping I am not certain how to take it.
Out of the blue I get an IM that happens as follows:
********************************
ramiles00: i refuse to be in the IRc room righ now
amboymelody: What?
amboymelody: I don't understand?
ramiles00: I refuse to chat with the others right now in the IRC chat room
amboymelody: Which room is that?
ramiles00: #ruaware
amboymelody: OK
ramiles00: there is a girl pisses me off
amboymelody: Really
ramiles00: yah
amboymelody: That is too bad.
ramiles00: and she isnt a team player
amboymelody: I don't understand why you are telling me this.
ramiles00: i just needed to air my feelings
amboymelody: Maybe you should see a therapist
amboymelody: I'm not a relationship expert
ramiles00: no
****************************
Should I be worried? Should I take it as a threat?

I know this one is bound to raise some discussion about giving in-game characters the players' IRC channel and what impact that can have on the game.

Well, I guess that means if Melody starts dropping into chat we'll have to make a new meta room. Not too much of a pain, but we shouldn't have to do that. Rolling Eyes

I had to do some serious damage control with melody (no offense to the player that spooked her):

amboymelody: You went invisible
sauceykat2003: yeah, just so other people won't bug me LOL
amboymelody: I wish I had done that earlier
sauceykat2003: why's that?
amboymelody: Mr. Miles said something to me that I am not certain how to interpret
sauceykat2003: Oh, just ignore him...he's very strange. I don't think he's taken his meds in awhile
amboymelody: Meds?
sauceykat2003: Yes, I believe he is a bit disturbed...take no notice of him Melody
amboymelody: You don't thinks he's scitzso... scizophrenic do you?
sauceykat2003: maybe not schizophrenic, but he definitely has a personality disorder
amboymelody: But if he's not taking his meds, then he might become dangerous?
sauceykat2003: well, he's harmless really but terribly annoying and out of touch with reality...he thinks he's in a game or something
sauceykat2003: very odd
sauceykat2003: Anyhow, I hope he hasn't scared you too much...I just saw your blog
sauceykat2003: I hope by knowing a bit of his background, you will see why his comments are not to be taken notice of
amboymelody: Isn't that what the prof... Mr. Palser thought, he was someone eles?
sauceykat2003: I suppose that is true.
amboymelody: I think I may have to ask Chief Markel for a favor.


Please note, I only responded with the whole personality disorder thing to undo the damage that could have been done, don't take it personally. It wasn't myself necessarily responding, but my ingame character responding how he would have in that situation.

This isn't a lecture but I think we need to tread carefully with ingame characters and not mix up ingame stuff with meta stuff.

And that's all I have to say about that.

RAMiles has a habit of breaking curtains with the characters and our private forums/IRC channels.

Reid - please respect the curtain, please remember that Melody, Marcus, et al are NOT to be directed to unforum or #ruaware (these are places for the players of the game to discuss AWARE as a game). Thank you.

Sauceykat - excellent coverage!!!
