OKCINDR POST #1 ✨ STICKY ✨

Ever wanted to have CR with a character and wasn't sure how to get them to cross paths? Wanted a dating app so you can hook up with hot people? Wanted to just find friends because you're a lonely bastard?

With the update of the tablets and the apps, we now have a dating / friendship app called OKCINDR! We're testing it out as a sticky post right after we process apps and newbies get oocly settled into the game. Players can use it as they please for the two months that it's up -- just imagine that they're profiles to swipe right on and everything. The idea is to encourage CR that may be difficult to get with characters who may or may not be interested in events / posts / logs / other network posts.

So, on May 2nd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #1
PLEASE RESET PROFILE


Players, of course, are able to ignore this message. However, if a character wouldn't fill it out but a player would like to participate... the profile mysteriously resets itself. There may even be responses sent from Character A to Character B without Character A actually doing anything, if you'd like! This is a completely opt-in scenario! But for players who would like to participate fill out the post:

network profile
Character_Name
@username
ABOUT_ME




If you'd like to for shits and giggles, here's some notifications that may be used:

Name (@username) followed you




Name (@username) unfollowed you




Name (@username) blocked you




Have fun! Code credit.

[ bless him ]

Of course it's a joke!!! [ not. but he didn't set this up, that's the truth ]
I'm Vash! Though I guess you've seen that already ...

[ He is just a guy. The guy ever. ]

That's kind of a mean joke, Vash. Glad you're okay!

I wonder what kind of intervention they mean ...
I mean, I've had two donuts today but isn't that okay????
starguy: (we'll bring hell down from above)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-05-03 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Could be anything! I once threw an intervention for a friend cause he kept using my toothbrush to clean between his toes (long story)

DUDE, two donuts is like MINIMUM if you have access to donuts, why would you miss out???

[personal profile] skelters 2024-05-03 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
What????? That's disgusting!!! I could never do that!!!

[ he probably didn't even own a toothbrush until a few months ago when he arrived. but DETAILS......

also, donut conversation is so important but can they just focus on the gross part here for a bit?? ]
starguy: (Tonight we ride straight into the fire)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-05-04 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it sucked!! I mean I think he was trying to mess with me on purpose, and like I get that it's hard to find brushes that small when you're a raccoon, but COME ON, right?

[ Do you listen to yourself, Peter Quill. ]

[personal profile] skelters 2024-05-04 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
He should have at least asked you before he did that!!

... But sorry, what is a raccoon?
starguy: (Now the storm's comin' for you)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-05-04 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he never asks. He just takes stuff. I've learned to pick my battles with him.

But man, Rocket would LOVE to meet you if you don't know what a raccoon is. They're kind of like... little furry animals with long fuzzy tails, and little bandit faces. Oh, and their hands have thumbs and stuff, so they can grab things like humans.

For the record, most raccoons don't walk and talk and cuss, my buddy Rocket is just special

[personal profile] skelters 2024-05-05 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Ahaha... won't he think it's a bit rude of me not knowing that?

[ rocket will definitely bully vash hard ]

Maybe you should gift him a toothbrush then, just so he knows he won't have to use yours. How about that?
starguy: (From the time I was young)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-05-05 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Well, they're animals from Terra so it's like you'd know them, right? He's usually more offended if you DO call him a raccoon.

[ You can't win, Vash. He would defs bully the hell out of him. ]

I tried! I tried giving him my extra toothbrush, I tried hiding mine in my bedroom -- I even tried putting hot pepper on the bristles, just so he'd learn not to steal!
skelters: (ponponpon) (pic#16485841)

[personal profile] skelters 2024-05-06 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Terra? Oh, you mean like Earth?
Are you from there, too? Or are you from somewhere else?

And haha, right! If I do get a chance to meet him, I'll call him by his name! He sounds like fun to be around, as long as I hide my toothbrush ...

Also, I don't think hot pepper was going to help much, since he doesn't really have tastebuds on his toes, right?
starguy: (Now the storm's comin' for you)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-05-06 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Earth! Sorry, I figured you weren't from there and I'm more used to calling it Terra haha
where are you from?
I'm actually from there but I kinda half grew up there and half grew up in space
it's a long story

dude, totally! he's seriously really cool, and SUPER smart he's just got like really terrible manners. and he likes to steal. but he's a big softie deep down
(if he does show up here DON'T tell him I said that)

oh sure, but that stuff gets into your skin and then it burns like flarking hell
plus he can hold stuff with his feet if he really tries so he got really pissed at me
wasn't worth the fact that he cut the heating to my room for a week, but we both learned something!

What makes you think I'm not from there?

[ is he teasing, is he worried? who knows ]

Well, if you ever feel like you want to tell a long story, I'm all ears! :-)
Sounds like a really nice guy even with all that ...
I mean, a lot of people have terrible manners too, right? But you wouldn't say everyone are big softies!


[ honestly, he could say the exact same thing about one person from his world. it would be fun to have wolfwood run into rocket (no, seriously, it will be a disaster) ]

Sounds like you two are really good friends, even though these pranks sound a bit too serious for me ... Haha :-)
starguy: (This is our time to go from zero to hero)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-06-05 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
you didn't know what a raccoon was, buddy
they're pretty common on Earth!

haha it's mostly just sad I wouldn't wanna bother you!
but right?? he's a great guy honest
just a little weird but like who isn't, you know


[ Rocket and Wolfwood with their equally giant guns would be an amazing sight........ ]

he takes it a little far sometimes but like kind of all of my friends do haha
they had it kinda rough a lot of the time so that's just how they are
everybody's got their quirks, I just learn to live with it
skelters: (ponponpon) (pic#16351203)

[personal profile] skelters 2024-06-05 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, you got me there!
Are they really that common? I don't think I've ever heard of them!


[ how dare these old earth documentaries not include these glorious feral beasts ]

But you aren't bothering me at all!
I'd also love to hear more stories about Earth, and other things too! :-)


[ dear lord i didn't even think about the guns SEND HELP ]

That's a good way to think about it ... You have a good heart.
starguy: (We'll make our stand)

[personal profile] starguy 2024-06-06 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
they are where I'm from, anyway!
they like to eat trash and scurry around in people's attics and stuff
they have little hands so they can open trash cans and get up into people's stuff
my buddy's not a raccoon but looks like one, so I'm pretty familiar!


[ They are beautiful trash babies... ]

it's just kinda the kind of thing you don't say over text, you know?
no offense!! maybe another time
but I can definitely give you stories about Earth!
like going to the movies and the mall and concerts and stuff
I used to go back when I was a kid, it was great


[ There would be no stopping them.... ]

awww, thanks, man
I try to keep the gang together as much as possible so
sometimes it means I'm the peptalk guy
most of the time, actually
having a good heart definitely helps :)
