The "chaotic evil" PVP-player was mostly a griefer, I understand.
Which got banned and shot in the knees repeatedly, but insisted in coming back a few too many different times.

Lately something's been bugging me, namely the fact that a female character can't wear even slightly risque outfits without people making uncouth OOC assumptions about the player.

There's such a limited selection for cloth, for instance, and I think #4 (the one that looks like *cough cough* bedroom gear) looks super badass. I'd like to outfit my character however I want without worrying that people are going to think I'm "that kind of player."

A very real problem in reality too, in some country's.

HAKs can fix that problem.

If somebody assumes you're "that kind of player" because your character wears something skimpy, I'd count that as a blessing as well as a curse - it's a good way to weed out people who aren't worth your time in the first place.

Descriptions that say "RP for info"

What am I supposed to do? Go up all like:

Using the toolset and realising that a certain square carpet texture is actually 1 degree off its rotation, and to put it right means making the carpet -1 degrees from whatever orientation you need it to have. >_>

-rotate_fixture 25
-rotate_fixture -26

Or the reversed.

Also, when you try to place Fixtures on Fixtures, and you end up having to "Drop" them from inventory to get them on the ground, just for your character to turn 163 degrees dropping it some other place.

You can rotate fixtures with negative numbers?

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.

People make OOC assumptions? I've never experienced this. My characters always kept their views on other's clothing strictly IC as a trait, be it high sense of properness or the desire to show off.

Plus none of the torsos look like bedroom gear to me!

If you can defeat dwarves with it, it's good gear.

Personally, I love bedroom gear. Ty.

xD The "bedroom gear" I'm referring to is #4 for cloth, the "buckles and straps" torso.

*EDIT* Going to stop derailing the thread.

It really grinds my gears when awesome new features give my character pseudo OCD.

Having to enchant items/placeables that you're trying to just rename for RP's sake and paying 250 gold per item.

And accidentally blowing up a placeable because your enchantment failed

Protip, go to an area that's not at the fixture limit, then drop and pick up the fixture three times in a row.

You should now be able to rename/edit the description for free.

It can't have somebody else's name in brackets though, otherwise the pickup/drop trick doesn't work.
