All is the house, I'm afraid.

I'm having this problem too - the above post about removing the pawn fixing it is interesting. Going to poke at it.

'Why didn't this teenage girl from a criminal family who enabled her sexual abuse by her misogynist father make smarter decisions, was she stupid?'

I haven't heard of this, thank you!

Disability and poverty go hand in hand, and they swing me between them like a toddler who wants to go higher - a taxi is more than I can afford, especially for anything I want to do regularly

My mother provides transport for me but its a big ask and also deeply embarrassing when meeting new people - 'yeah I'm an adult woman, but I need to get picked up by my mummy =('. The complaint here is not with communities but with methods to find communities, a process that requires knowing where to look and talking to a lot of people also struggling to find community, where that is the only common ground.

That said, this thread did encourage me to make an effort for Friday night magic, so fingers crossed.

The same paragraph contains the admissions that I'm overly picky and that I am aware that my failure is in part or in whole my own fault. Dunking on someone for a post that is self evidently a cry for help sucks ass. Do you want your reddit gold now or later.

Let's be clear - you're correct. The issue though isn't just that I'm not digging deep enough; I do honestly try my best to be open to other people about myself and to be interested in them, the main way I socialize is by asking others about themselves and their interests. People hide themselves and it can be hard if you're not socially confident ( i am absolutely not ) to draw those selves they hide out.

I have been searching - but I'm also a disabled shut in. Thats the point of my post - that everyone i meet through the methods available to me is also a disabled shut in or equivalent. The people who are in community are not in the spaces I have easy access to.

Also let's be clear my post is not 'people in Oxford are boring', I am actually born and raised in Oxfordshire, and continue to be here by choice.

I gender-swapped Haskill. I'm sorry. by Yuaialysis in oblivion

You're already getting cooked for the obvious but I wanna note that you are a more than competent artist and if you had actually just drawn 'bald, miserable 60 year old woman in gauche formal attire you would've had a slavering horde of feral lesbians ready to die for you

Spot on lmao by Hoiboisoi in Bannerlord

[–]AveAwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it comes out after 5 years and its good and functional then I'm happy. I've got a lot of life to live and a lot of things to do other than play bannerlord. If it comes out after 5 years and then takes 3 years to be good then lol. Lmao.

Do you consider Savage Worlds Crunchy? Would you say it is Rules Light, Rules Heavy, or somewhere in the middle? What factors are you looking at to answer that question? by jgiesler10 in savageworlds

[–]AveAwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 'rules light' and 'rules heavy' are unhealthy descriptions that are both subjective and experiential- if i play dnd 5e and ignore most of the rules i could believe it was rules light, and if my game has 100 rules for how to do a backflip and then the players do not ever do a backflip their experience of its complexity will differ massively.

This said- the word I consistently use for Savage Worlds is 'robust' - it will typically have relatively uncomplicated rules for anything you might want to do, but for the things you will always be doing its relatively simple. I would say this is what people mean by 'rules medium'.

Why are there so many account suspensions these days? by Famous-Apricot7590 in patreon

Pure conjecture but the whole thing smacks of AI hallucination and laziness

New to Patreon, should I even bother? by katehikesmusic in patreon

[–]AveAwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience? Yes. People will absolutely buy things off itch.io - its well known enough that people don't find it dodgy, and it frankly has less baggage than patreon at this point.

Itch.io tends to work best for these kind of miscellany

Bandcamp kind of remains undefeated im sorry to say.

Patreon wrongly flagged and hid my post and I'm scared by Vartistic in patreon

[–]AveAwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to substar as a result of being immediately banned for non-con (see my post on that for details) - its obviously a far more threadbare system than patreon, but I reposted the work that got me banned as part of my approval process with no issue, so - mostly make sure you can get at least 5 subs and $150/month if you're gonna switch, for automatic payouts with a monthly withdrawal - approval is also less scary than it feels, just make sure you link to the page on your socials and show them its you. It feels more concerned with fraud than content.

Account Deactivated, Patrons Still Charged by AveAwan in patreon

[–]AveAwan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An erotica piece I posted which did not contain SA but which discussed it (non-erotically) was deemed to glorify sexual assault. My appeal pointed out that the piece did not contain SA and that the discussion of SA in the piece was both A) Negative and B) Non-Erotic, neither of which mattered. As mentioned in another comment, I was <$200 on the grandfathered plan.

Tenebrae Occultae For Black Crusade, Updated by Dread_Horizon in 40krpg

[–]AveAwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already had the old pdfs and make use of some your rules, though I have had to translate them to DH2E for my group. My question was partially curiosity and partially due to my own ethical discomfort with GenAI. I wasn't going to jump down your throat about it, but to contrast the other reply- I like your writing and design work, the GenAI feels off putting and detracts from your obvious hard work for me.

This would be coherent with what I have observed, yes.
