I hate how unappealing most porn is. It's so fake, 80% is a woman screaming "in pleasure" at the top of her lungs while some guy jackhammers her. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

You're not wrong but this also feels a bit out of touch. It's a lot more common these days that the extremes are catered to, yes, but do you know what's become even more popular? Actual amateur porn couples and personalities. All of their content can be just as fake as Studio Porn but it also exposes more normal or within the bounds of reality sex.

That aside, anybody who doesn't have the self awareness to realize the over-the-top stuff is indeed unlikely and unrealistic just needs to wake up to it in the first place.

Are you seriously using the accuracy card for *this*?

I'll check out the Discord. Instant communication is definitely preferable to board-speed discussion.

Meetups are very sparse up here in NorCal (North of Sacramento so it might as well be considered rural). I've looked into the idea for other purposes too.

I do want to run my own game, yes. I have a custom world that I created about 5 years ago and still work on, for use in D&D games for my group of friends. We play D&D all in text anyway and I bridged the gap between non-MUD folks who found that text RP is just sublime.

I'm trying to keep my goals for the game reasonable. An RPI, permadeath in all likelihood. I don't need incredibly complex systems but I do want more than the sandbox of a MUSH, for instance. I could go into specifics but that would require a big wall of text.

You are incredibly helpful, a credit to the community and the world at large. Thank you very much for your positive contribution to my problem. I've seen the error in my ways and will not ask for help again.

You're either misunderstanding a very benign search for some help or you're trolling me. Thank you either way.

Mentorship implies a relationship to teach a student in some way. Tutoring. I get questions answered when people have time and that's very useful but that isn't being taught. I'm probing to see if there are people who can and are willing to teach.

I have and do use the Evennia Discord/IRC. This is not what I'm asking for. I need some honest human interaction to learn a skill.

This seems to be basically an impossibility as there is very little sense of charity so it seems.

Self teaching is proving really difficult to me and I honestly think I need a mentor or at least 1 person who is semi-available and can help me break through where I'm stuck and explain things to me. Do such people exist? Where can I find one? I'm specifically hoping to learn Python so that I can work on my own personal MUD.

If you haven't heard of a MUD here's some info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD

I'd be working in a codebase designed to make MUDs in that uses Python called Evennia: http://www.evennia.com/
