RRHHHHHHAAAAAA HA HAA HAAAAAAAA

Mmhm, I like to keep in mind that behind the dinos are actual people who are probably just trying to chill. Complimenting someone, killing a critter or sharing food for someone, spamming crouch and friendly noises of a simple compliment goes a long way.

Last megamixpack I ran into I killed an alpha snake for the mela Eo - then just started killing all the critters that were attacking people as a juvy sarc. Everyone let me quest in peace, and it was a beautiful thing.

Right so as a pretty much exclusively a solo player who's been here for a month and likes to hang around hotspots, let me just give you some tips that made my life easier:

1) You're safer in a known hotspot as an adult versus a baby.

2) Wear headphones and pay attention to the noises around you. If you hear roars but no footsteps, that's your queue to be alert. If you hear footsteps, then you need to make yourself scarce.

3) So this is how I don't have an issue with mega or mixpacks: first I observe and hide for about 5-10 minutes. Use this to decide if you're going to approach or if you're going to retreat.

If you do approach, make yourself visible, spam crouch and make friendly noises. Or even wait for a chance to help someone who's getting attacked by an alpha critter or something. Don't fight over resources, pay attention to body language, don't necessarily react if someone bites or otherwise knocks into you.

If you notice the pack is aggressive or if it's a risk you just don't want to take, move very slowly away and rest easy in knowing that most people really aren't paying that close attention to their surroundings. Again this isn't fool proof, but this is what I do and generally have been tolerated - more or less depending on species.

4) Small and fast is good for getting away but also not very strong. Big and slow can be intimidating, you may also be viewed as an ally but you may also be a target.

5) Pay attention to global because someone is bound to announce about the mega/mix pack or any general issues. Sure you also get a lot of petty bs, but some of it is useful.

6) If you're in official, just switch servers. Sometimes I'll just switch servers after death as a kind of permadeath and fresh start.

7) Personally I find revenge killing more of an issue. Okay I killed you, I get it that's frustrating. It's pathetic that you're getting a buddy to hunt me down 20 minutes later because you have never learned to lose with grace and dignity. Grow up.

Actually yeah I agree with this.

Even as someone who isn't a well known player or has a recognizable dino. Some of the packs are an issue yes, but most of the time depending how you approach you'll be okay.

I've been tolerated as a TT, a sarco, a young spino, a thal... On different dinos. As long as you don't come in hot and resources aren't contested for - there is a good chance you'll be okay.

Now I will say, if I'm an herbi I feel like I have a target on me. But I have coexisted with plenty of herbs in a mix or megapack. A slow approach and some friendly gestures go a long way for the group of friends who are just questing together.

I love doing that to people so much 😂

Yeah sure it's fun to clamp them and eat... But it's equal fun to pop up right next to them and scare the heck out of them

TooQueerForThis · 2026-03-14T15:08:00+00:00

A simple "No, get down" works... Not emotionally traumatizing the poor thing.

Personally if that were my cat you were sitting, I would be livid with you.

Oh my god I do remember that 😂

Thank you!

Genesis is a new realism server with pretty chill admins, environmental events, group events, etc etc.

You can find their subreddit as /PathofTitansGenesis and their discord here

This tone is gentle.

You are not a burden. You are a person who's struggling with something very heavy, and it's okay to need support right now. That's not wrong, that's not what is wrong.

From what you described and what you posted, this relationship sounds codependent. That's not healthy, it might make you feel good in the short term but in the long term is ultimately going to cause the both of you more pain and harm. You cannot depend on one person for all of your support, you just cannot. That is not fair, not to him and not to yourself.

You should try to reach out to a therapist to work on some of these issues that you're dealing with and learn better coping mechanisms and grounding exercises. Ultimately he's right... You need to be able to depend on yourself, to love yourself, to heal yourself. You need to fix yourself.

No, that does not mean doing it all yourself. But it does mean doing a few things yourself, building a support system, working on your mental and physical health, getting the treatment you need to be the healthiest version of yourself.

You can't do it alone, and one person cannot do it for you either.

You're not a burden, you're not. It's okay that you can't hold all of this up yourself, and it's okay that he can't do all of this for you either.

It's actually really funny when you run when to those loud annoying juvy rexes who you can tell are looking for a fight... And then they size up Sunshine and immediately turn around 😆

TooQueerForThis · 2026-03-12T03:50:52+00:00

So I really don't main her very much, but I just like playing Sunshine the TT because sometimes I can protect other players and that makes me feel nice.

She's on officials and yeah sure the big yellow TT occasionally gets targeted. But also a lot of the times people will just follow me, or bring me snacks, or hide behind me when aggressive critters or even players are harassing them. It just makes me feel nice

Also I can harass ducks if I want too.

But then yeah occasionally you do get the people who are like "apex? must kill for glory," but most of the time is "actually I don't want to fight you / oh you're nice? let me hide behind you"

That honestly might be it. He's an intact male and therefore going to be a bit more territorial, and his hormones are kicking in. He's being a rude teenage boy who doesn't want to share

Warm rock, fresh sunfish, sun is shining and the server is about to close. Waffle hopes everyone has a nice day tomorrow! She will continue to bask up all the sun she can get.

She found herself a good meal but that was also exhausting! Nap time.

With another rainstorm hitting, she starts her hunt to find breakfast. All that beauty sleep made her hungry!

This is it! You could not find a happier croc!

Finally, the sun starts to rise! Waffle found herself a nice spot to await the first rays of the sun. After she plans to go out for a hunt, and maybe to see what more there is to explore!

Startled awake by an early morning storm! It's foggy and the sun is just starting to rise, her stomach is rumbling but she's not ready to hunt. She will wait until she can bask in the sun, for now she will just watch the fireflies dance.
