I was terribly upset one recent evening to go into what was supposed to be a sexually charged dance club to find a bunch of AVs dressed as wizards and engaging in what can only be described as "Larpish" activity.

Clearly the D&D set doesn't belong in a sex club and yet here they were saying "Thee" instead of "The" and "Aye" instead of yes. They were all covered with purple bling particles and wore pointy hats with moons and stars.

To say I'm disgusted would be an understatement.

AS WE ALL KNOW DRESSING YOUR AV AS A WIZARD IS A GATEWAY TO SATANIC WORSHIP!!!!

BAN THEM!!!

I heard Magical Trevor is 10 times as slick as the last time... the last time we saw him, now you will see why we really adore him...

Ugh you are such a drama queen, you can't keep anything quiet. I was just trying to have a little fun. Now take it back before I smite you.

Linden labs have made it clear that while they will act on any evidence of RL magic, pretending to cast spells in-game is OK and not against any laws. So stop oppressing me!

Mages are allowed because they have ties to Pathfinder, I don't see them leaving anytime soon. Until they do we just have to deal with them and their magic ways.

I've been reading the definitive wizarding and witchcraft handbooks. Learned a lot, too! I strongly suggest reading the Harry Potter books - backward. There are all kinds of hidden messages in there - and they tell you the proper way to cast spells.

maybe you think it's all very innocent and stuff --but what about a REAL mage who after playing around in Darkwood or something uncovers his/her palantir and starts consorting with the Darklord.

maybe you won't laugh as hard when legions of orcs descend on New jersey.

Lucifer told me that satanic heaven is filled with sex, drugs and rock 'n roll. :) What's so bad about that? :D

OMG! You're right! And Zatanna's spells are just written backwards!

"woc reappasid" is just "disappear cow".

That's how it works! I can do the magic!

Don't patronize me. With a name like Elspeth Withnail you are clearly someone who engages in Mage Play.

oh --and parts of New Jersey are very nice thankyou very much. :mad:

Kendra... I know you are very strong in your opinions about mage play, but... care to pop by for a while?

I've got some pizza, a case of Mountain Dew and some twenty-sided dice I ah, found the other day.

Not saying that anything would happen, but... well, in a safe, honest environment, perhaps we could talk about this reasonably.

I'm not someone really into this, but... maybe we could explore this together? I've been curious myself why so many people are into LARPing...

Besides, nobody has to know if you don't want 'em to.




whispers in singsong: once you've mage played, you never go baaa-aaack... :)

Since Pathfinder is himself one of these deviants, it is unfortunately very unlikely Linden Lab will act to contain this menace.

hahahahahahaha! very funny everyone ---NOT!!!

Did it occur to any of you that I might have once been kidnapped by changelings as an infant? Or that bullies in highschool forced me to play D&D with them as Shantaara an 18th level half-elf barbarian with 123 hp?

To this day even the sight of a purple velour dice pouch clipped to someone's belt loop sends me into a deep depression.

And Desmond --of course we can talk, I'll bring over some Domino's pizza.
