    A few months ago my wife and I were on vacation in Peru and we got kicked off our flight through no fault of our own, along with 5 other strangers. We spent hours in the airport working out logistics of getting home, getting reimbursed, getting hotels/meals, etc. At one point, they suggested to one of the women to take an uber to the hotel (this was around 3 am) and she said “I’m not going out into the city without anyone I know, you’re going to send me with someone I can trust.” We had only met hours ago, but our shared predicament gave us unity.

    A D&D party trauma bonding over some initial catastrophe is honestly realistic. So, if you meet up for a job and it goes badly enough, you’re essentially family!












  • It entirely depends on the community. I’m sure there are judicious, patient moderators here. I mean, in a small community there’s not much work to do, so extra care can be made. But moderation is also a thankless job, and it honestly erodes your soul.

    The easiest thing for a mod to do is say “This person broke a rule, I’m banning them from the entire instance”. The fair thing to do is issue a warning and remove a comment/post, maybe a temp ban. But most people see one infraction, even a mistaken one, as proof that you aren’t fit for the community.
