On gen AI in roleplay.
To quote Sabine Zetteler:
"Why would I read something someone couldn’t be bothered to write?"
If someone doesn't want to bother to tell their story...
But don't go witch hunting. Some of us ALT+0151'd before AI and others have been chronically addicted to adjectives.

Find out if your state is pushing these sorts of age verification requirements. Make noise to the people driving this mess.

In all seriousness, for the number of times I've been asked back channel, no, I will not be making an IRC FFXIV network. That way lies madness.
Anyone suggesting we immediately jump ship and form all new communities right now probably doesn't have the community's best interest at heart.

A new day dawns, a bit warmer then the last as we work through winter. The mulled cider at Buscarron's helps with the cold.
Join us tomorrow at 8PM US Eastern at Buscaron's Druthers for some open world, walk up roleplay in the South Shroud on Mateus.
I hope to see you all there. #ffxiv #ffxivrp.

If you're cold... The chocobo are probably still fine.
But you can bring them out anyway to Buscarron's Druthers in the South Shroud of Mateus for some open world, walk-up role-play. We'll be gathering tonight at 5PM and 8PM US Eastern and going until whenever.
See you there!

While my plans for turning 50 did not involve being iced in, the interview last night was a good end cap to a decade well spent. Today enjoyed failing to catch big fish, gaming with family, and got my daughter playing FFXIV again earlier as a bonus.
I need to keep this up another 50 years.
Cheers.

I got to have a sit-down last night with Nobutaka of Coffee and Carbuncles and talk about role-play and the event calendar. They were a brilliant host, far better than I've deserved, and actually published our conversation.
I blame my rambling on the ice and officially becoming 'vintage' today.

If you're stuck inside today like I am, perhaps tune Fruity Snacks charity event in support of the Coral Reef Alliance.
There will be fish, fishing in FFXIV, fishing in other games, fish facts, fish... you get the point, I'm floundering in this description but It will be a good catch of an event.

I'm always amused that for any social event in Elite Dangerous, when I party my Beluga somewhere it becomes a beacon for people to gather around.
My old ship, Daedalus's Folly will be enabling me to make bad decisions in another Distant Worlds expedition. #EliteDangerous #DistantWorlds3.

Erah'sae is perpetually broke, going from courier gig to courier gig. He spends what he makes almost as soon as he gets it. Often on food, supplies, but sometimes on nice things for those he cares about.
What he doesn't spend or use he often leaves behind for someone else who can.

What would you say is your character's main source of income IC? Do they earn their gil through random quests on their adventure, or are they perhaps a skilled crafter?
Would you say your character is well off or more on the poor side?

It depends.
If you're doing open roleplay a carrd / profile should be a taste. It should be the hooks one can find out about with casual effort. Enough to tell the styles and themes of stories you tell with the character. Leave the rest for discovery.
If you're mostly writing prose, not so much.
