I know I’ve spun a few yarns on here about my interactions with the player base but never really offered proof, so why believe me, right? Some folks do because it sounds plausible with their own experiences. But I just had one with the chat proof I can post, so figured I’d drop it. I got backroom…

@silentbob515 I hope you can forgive my comprehension frustration when I keep getting comments like this as well. [image] Palumtra: especially when the person in question got murked. Feel like I pretty clearly communicated that I got banished to the backrooms by a Chaos Spawn, but this is t…

[image] CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N: I have been beaten back time and time again when trying to offer new player tips or explain things that I had to go outside the game to learn thanks to FS obscurity. Even told to “KYS” more than once just for explaining how an ammo crate works. Literally just stating the…
