Hello! It's nearly that time of year again. The 7 year anniversary of the /jp/ Touhou GTA server will be this Thursday, the 23rd. To celebrate, I'll be hosting the server at around 8 or 9 PM EST on the same day. Please look forward to it!
It's already been 7 years, huh? Has anon's life changed for the better, or worse? After this, there's only 3 more anniversaries to go through before it's been an entire decade!Back in December, I mentioned I might have an interesting story to tell about the server by the end of this year. That eventuality seems increasingly likely, so I'll give a forewarning now to /jp/sies living in the US that this might be the last session you have good ping. For the other half of you, it should (hopefully!) improve. I'm still waiting for more details so this isn't a certainty yet. There is a chance nothing comes of it in which case I will pretend I never made this post if you ask me about it.
For the record, this is a gay ERP server. Don't come in expecting anything else.
Looking forward to it!

>>50872967If my efforts over the past year pay off, that's the plan. Assuming this works out, this will be the last time I host from the US for potentially the final 3 years of the server. I'd make a joke about my new occupation in a foreign country, but there's a chance that joke might actually be true so you can use your imagination as to what I'll be doing overseas for 3+ years.
I have some prior engagements that mean I'll miss about 5 hours of this. I'm debating whether I should conveniently get food poisoning the night before...
I don't have the will power to play on this server anymore due to certain people who play here so this will be the first time I intentionally don't join and probably won't ever join again. It was really fun in the past for me (too much so one could argue) but the last year or so has stripped all of that away from me. It's just impossible to have fun around people who have made my life a stressful hell for so long now. But I hope your host goes well for everyone else who still enjoys playing here as I know there is a lot.
>>50873975How can internet people give you copious amounts of stress unless you're a retard who takes things too seriously?Ignore the shitstirring if you're new, I joined in on this a couple times and it was a good time.
>>50873975>It's just impossible to have fun around people who have made my life a stressful hell for so long now.eh, how's that even possible when this server is hosted only like 2 times a year?
>>50872293YES IT"S MY FUCKING DAY OFFF!!!!I CAN MAKE IT!!!!
>>50872694Has anyone made any lasting relationships there? asking because I may or may not be lonely haha
Some minor stuff, but I've also tweaked the Nue gamemode properly this time so it's a little less janky, and made Nue herself quite a bit more tanky. Everyone always played her super defensively and couldn't really learn her moveset since you'd get deleted in several seconds flat if you stopped moving. She should feel a little more boss-like now.>>50873975That's unfortunate. I'll give my usual single meta-y sermon post for this thread and echo back to what I've said in the past, which is that keeping this so spread out is the best way that I can try to keep bad blood like this from forming between anons. It's the porcupine dilemma. Of course after nearly a decade it's inevitable stuff like this will still happen.The primary focus of these runs should foremost be just enjoying the moment and blowing people up/murdering/racing/goofing off with fellow anons in whatever's going on regardless of who those anons actually are. I dislike circlejerks and, to a reasonable extent, the concept of persistent identities in things like this. Whether it's a new name or an old name, it shouldn't make any difference in how included someone feels because at the end of the day it's just loosely familiar strangers anyways, or at least that's the vision.Overall I feel like everyone is generally really good about this though, and I appreciate the attempts by others to drag new names/antisocial anons into weird shenanigans. With how many people join nowadays it's harder for me to keep track of every individual.
