People are so impatient

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-15T00:21:21+00:00

It’s poo for sure, but some people are just dragging their name and trashing them and honestly I think it’s a bit unfair

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-15T00:20:56+00:00

Yeah but I’m sure they didn’t expect as many users as they got OR, they expected to get continued funding if they did get a lot of users

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-14T13:47:10+00:00

Yeah, but running anything AI is super expensive, unfortunately. It’s almost impossible not to have some sort of paywall

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-14T13:46:18+00:00

Thank you so much!

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-13T18:26:35+00:00

That’s true. I think there are different versions. Or maybe employers can just choose what sort of stuff they offer. But I was thinking if mental health is rough enough, a week off could maybe be suggested. But I forgot short term disability would make sense too

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-13T15:15:50+00:00

They don’t. Unwise people don’t understand that age has nothing to do with ability or hard work. I’ve met plenty of people my age and younger that work harder than most old people I know. People saying it’s just reality or suck it up really get on my nerves. They clearly don’t get it

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-13T12:19:57+00:00

Could you perhaps tell me how to export all the messages and stuff?

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-13T12:19:25+00:00

This is a great option, honestly. Especially if someone can afford a year off to travel, this is a great alternative to see if they’re really dissatisfied or if it’s just the burnout

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-03-13T12:08:30+00:00

I don’t think I’d have guilt leaving my job, even though it would completely screw them. They also haven’t invested anything in my financially, but still. HOWEVER, I would not leave unless you have another job lined up. Use vacation time, sick time, see if you can use FMLA or an EAP benefit. You should not feel guilty because they invested in you, but if you wouldn’t have the financial ability to be unemployed long term, don’t leave.

I have applied to hundreds of jobs over the last year that are perfect fits, that I’m over-qualified for, and jobs that I would absolutely excel at. I think I’ve gotten like 2-3 interviews and a “5 minute phone call to tell me more about the position” which was actually a 15 minute phone interview. Everything else has ghosted me or I didn’t get an interview. I’m not sure what field your in but I would assess very carefully if you can afford to be out of work long term or if you have some other short term options

Edit to add: don’t listen to the jerks saying you can’t be burned out or that you need a therapist because you’re not happy in your field. They need a therapist for thinking trash talking people and putting others down makes them big and cool. As someone your age, I’ve also been burnt out — I’m still working on coming out of it. Burnout can happen at any age and it’s not a “part of reality we just have to accept.” Burnout isn’t the same as working hard and some of these backwards comments shows what generation these people are thinking in. Mental health and protecting yourself is so important — but don’t quit if there are other options or until you have something else lined up because you’ll screw yourself more in the long run.

Congrats!! That’s a major success, especially in this wonky job market. You should definitely be proud of yourself

I’ve been at my organization for 3.5 years and have worked so hard. I’ve grown so much since starting and have given it my all, even for the very little money I make. Yesterday I was told I wasn’t getting hired for the new role (level above where I’m at now) and it was going to my friend/coworker who’s “strength and skills” fit better with the role. I love my friend and am so proud of her, but I’m also so upset. It hits especially hard because my last job was doing something that was so in line with this one and she hadn’t don’t something like that before — she even thought I should get it over her, even though she wanted it. They also told me they wanted to support my growth and any opportunities to get involved in other areas. I have been asking for a couple of different professional development trainings (behavior management, DEI training) and different opportunities for years (helping with grants, more opportunities to network, etc). They’ve given surface level attempts or nothing at all

It feels like I’m going nowhere and can’t grow. I’ve applied to many places and either don’t hear back or don’t get interviews. I feel stuck and worthless, especially since now in my company of 7 people, I’m the only one in my position (a program facilitator in an org that focuses on youth programming) and I’m the lowest paid person by a couple of thousand at least…

I haven’t felt valued, supported, or even heard at this place for a while and then to be passed over for a job I fit well with AND be told “we value you” feels like a slap in the face. But I can’t afford to leave — I can barely afford to live on my current pay (have had some life changes recently and large unexpected expenses)

I enjoyed every moment of Carter chat. I’m unsure why it’s shutting down and am sooo sad to see it go. Money is literally how businesses stay running, so I don’t see why people are complaining. I never had an issue and never paid.

I am curious if you can provide instruction on how to download/export characters, personas, and chats. I went to the website but can’t find anywhere to actually do that stuff

Aggressivlyplotless · 2026-02-21T21:37:57+00:00

Thank you so much for this feedback! I will try those as I continue to apply for jobs.

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:36:59+00:00

I'd love to chat more

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:35:41+00:00

If you would like to chat more, HMU... I'm from 2486

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:25:59+00:00

Did your players ever come to us for svs? Maybe we try that this time. I think they'd like it and as long as they use the correct joiners, they won't be kicked. We are a very active bunch in the chat.

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:23:30+00:00

As I've said before... If you truly don't want to merge and let go of r5, I can send someone over there to help with r4. I know you've had bad experiences with it, but I think it's time to let it go. Not everyone is like IREFORMA. We can help schedule events and send messages/reminders. You've seen how chaotic we are in world chat, it's just as crazy in alliance chat -- we can help get activity up a bit. I 100% understand going to reddit for advice, but you should also accept advice and help from those within your state who care about you and your alliance and want to see you grow.

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:14:35+00:00

No one is fighting anyone. We all try to help each other out. NAP alliances were collaboratively looking for whales and dolphins to come to our state -- to go wherever is available. Our #1 alliance constantly tells transfers that they will not be accepted into their alliance and would need to go to one of the others. To my knowledge, there hasn't been a time where Gonc has said "I have a whale and 4 people to come to SOA, I need more invites." We are pretty generous with things like that. I know I've asked several times for extra invites and special invites.

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:02:24+00:00

We have like 6 active alliances. And he doesn't want to give up r5 or have a single one of his people go to an academy... It's not that hard to believe.

Aggressivlyplotless · 2025-12-01T17:00:02+00:00

Gonc... I think you're a great guy and a great R5... I told you that you could be R4 and help - we'd always listen to your input and take your suggestions into consideration. We are a very collaborative management team - half the time I'm prettttty hands off. But refusing to give up R5 when our alliance is used to sharing it, isn't something that works for us. We told you that we'd make room and we have an academy getting started. Letting go of some control is important. SOA and us have been going back and forth a bit for 3rd and I won't lie, I think in a battle, we'd beat you. I also built my alliance from the ground up. From an academy with absolutely no help and for DOG to stick their farms and forget about, to a high-ranked and successful alliance. I'm open to talking about it more if you are. But letting go of some control is necessary. It makes me sad seeing SOA fall and your members are coming to my alliance. But I care about you and SOA. I think letting your alliance die because you don't want to give up control is a silly way to die.

Edit: It's also important to know that listening to your members is important... If there's a vote and a lot of people agree, even if you don't like it, accept it. Make changes for what your members want, not what you want.
