Egads, people are stupid. This is a conversation I just had on LbN (London By Night aka Jusnoctis, the RP site I run).
[player in OOC room with "Looking for [system] ST" in name tag]
Me, logging in to be helpful: Hi [player], [ST] won't be around for a while, best bet is an email or a forums PM.
Player: That's fine, I can just wait here.
Me: Umm, well yes, you can lurk here, but if you're waiting for [ST], she's not going to be around for the foreseeable future.
Player: Hrm. Well, I just need to talk to whoever is in charge of [system] character approvals
Me,starting to tap foot : Yes, that would [ST] . Which is why I mentioned it. Dolt.
OK, so I didn't say dolt. But I was thinking it. Bet they don't bother with the email or PM and then, in a couple of weeks, start whining that they haven't seen the ST.
Bah.
