IC ANON MEME #01

[piper90npcs]

THE IC ANON MEME RULES AND INFO ✦ Everything must be from an IC in-world perspective. The meme is specifically a meme populated by Jorgmund's 'junior staff'. That is to say, everyone who doesn't rate their own secretaries. Nurses, mechanics, school folks, and more all have access to the meme. While this meme is in the meme comm, it is real in the game universe and the New Hires and the Jorgmund workers can see it ICly. Rather than other ic anon memes where characters post starters to the meme, this meme operates like real world memes like rpanons. ✦ There are 3 ways to post. When posting as Rig Staff, do it anon. When posting as New Hires that unwisely comment unanon, just do it logged in. If posting as New Hires going anon, do it logged in, but mark "anon" in the subject, so we know it's anon, but can have a laugh over which New Hires are secretly stanning or shitposting. ✦ That said, this meme is an open secret and the person running it could get into Big Trouble if they were found out. One of the things that they do to try to soften the blow if they're ever caught is censor the posts so that nothing too negative about Jorgmund gets posted. Shock collars will always be censored. The actual game mods will not be doing this, the mechanic would just be that the player doesn't write that bit of the post. It's not an obvious gap, either, but thoughtfully done so that people can't just see where it goes. ✦ Beyond sticking to those basics, don't worry about getting anything "wrong." It's a meme and people tend to say stupid things on memes. ✦ You can pretend to write things from the POV of Rig staff sharing the deets on the New Hires. However, they wouldn't share harmful info on the New Hires that could get them into too much trouble with Dickwash, only juicy gossip. Also, if someone is writing from the POV of Rig staff and writes something about your character that your character doesn't actually do, keep in mind that half the time people make shit up. It'll just be false gossip. They're lonely and there's only about a thousand adults on the Rig, they need their soap operas. ✦ For those who remember Legion anon memes, the Rig has much less wacky horny energy. This isn't a case of a maddened fandom desperate for any real or imagined deets. These are bored and lonely workers who have new and sometimes exotic faces around them. Some of them approve of how the New Hires are treated, but the vast majority of the non-executive staff are actually rather bothered by it. They just don't believe there's a way for them to do anything about it without getting themselves into trouble. ✦ The meme is heavily modded and censored, as stated above. This is dangerous for every participant if they're discovered, and the New Hires getting access is a mistake, but not one that the admin feels a need to correct. That said, there won't be heavy moderation from our angle. Anon comments can be deleted by the real mods at the request of players (like say if they made a formatting mistake and want to repost) but there should be no need to delete anything beyond that since it's all IC. ✦ This anon meme is set on January 1st.

STAFF GOSSIP

I really wish Adoracat would learn to be a little stealthier with their relationship. It's getting awkward when I keep trying to redirect the boss away from spotting them. I think Dickwash is trying to set up an appointment with the therapy department for me by now, the bastard.

Still, beats making people scared of young love.

I know it was you

That mistletoe was even more bullshit than our usual bullshit, but let's find a silver lining. You think it ~awakened anything~ in someone? Speculate wildly.

What's the word on those New Hire calendars? Any good?

FISHING

[(Anonymous)]

I hear they're doing a supply run to the ocean soon. Apparently we're getting low on salt and they also want to see what meat we get.

Is this too much of a suicide run? Or should I throw the dice and see if I can get my hands on some fresh sushi ingredients? I haven't had any real sushi since before the war and I'm betting at least one of the New Hires knows how to make it.

BEST CALENDAR

Mine came with the tiger poster. I've been wanting that since I was a kid.

For the love of God, it's lose, not loose. You let loose the dogs of war, you lose the battle.

Also, we use American here, so none of this 'whinging'. If you want to whine, do it over a port.

Can we as a culture resolve in the new year to consign "blunette" to the pits of hell where it belongs?

I thought I was against the death penalty before this but if I ever find out who summoned that bitch corporate will never find the body.

MOD CHATTER

[(Anonymous)]

As you know, every year I set up a new network for us to have these chats on. As long as you keep them a secret, we'll have this place to vent a little and have some fun. On January 1st, the old network is deactivated and I generate a new one.

This time around, because of the employee tags I use to tell who should and shouldn't have access, the New Hires were included. This was a mistake, but, despite the unintentional sharing of our network with theirs, I don't see the harm in letting them have a space here to talk, as long as they follow the same rules as everyone else.

'mistake'

sure

some mods just want to watch the meme burn

I don't understand why the name Karen is used as an insult. I'd like to ask everyone: how would you like if if your name was used as an insult?

There are 12 Karens in the HR department alone, are you trying to tell me they're all bad just because they have that name?

[(Anonymous)]

yes.

the hr department is terrible.

Is Tenten 20, 10,000,000,000, or 1010?

Is half of Tenten ten, five billion, or five hundred and five?

[(Anonymous)]

Half of Tenten is dead

For the love of legality, can we PLEASE just get an established list of who is of age, so people stop perving on teenagers?




Also maybe a list of tops, bottoms, verses, and megavirgins? For science?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not saying anyone in HR should endanger their job by getting us an accurate list, but I'm also not NOT saying that.

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, I'd to know whose bright idea it was to try to arrange the caveman to be in the calendar shoot.

I'm in staffing and I've got two stylists who had to go to the Infirmary to make sure they don't have to worry about rabies from him biting them, several makeup artists in tears because he threw makeup palettes you can't even get anymore post-apocalypse, and half of craft services is threatening to quite because he started throwing bananas and flipped a whole craft services table.

They ushered him out quickly enough when it was clear he couldn't be bribed with bananas, but why did anyone even try to set it up in the first place???

Even if they can get him to club the right things on missions not everyone is cut out to be a model.

[(Anonymous)]

Are you seriously suggesting being a model is harder than life or death missions?
