Some days I just really dislike being a mod on Milliways.

I adore the game, I love my co-mods, I have a stupid amount of affection for the characters I play, for the characters of others, and for the extraordinary muns I've met there.

And yet, no matter what I do, and no matter how hard I try, there are people who will never trust me purely on the basis of... I don't even know, actually. It can't really be precedent, because we've only made a few huge mistakes, and every time we've apologised for them. Possibly... three, in a year and a half, now. Which isn't bad, considering that none of us have done this before. Possibly it is issues that they've had with other mods at other games, which is a shame on their part but is not our fault.

It really grates to have people inform me that they don't trust, or are leery of, my modding practices, when they've never made an effort to talk to me.

If anyone has any words of wisdom that'd help, at this point, they'd be appreciated.

And no, I wouldn't have a clue what to do with IP logging if it bit me in the arse.




And I'm going to go watch Master and Commander, I think. Chilli, and Master and Commander. The applications can wait. It's been a long time since I've watched them make beautiful music together. *grins*

...dammit, where is varadia when I need her?






(You know those moments where you need someone to convince you out of something, only you have to choose really carefully 'cos you don't really want to be convinced out of it? Yeah.)

I have been completely unproductive today.

This is somewhat annoying.

I was going to be terribly efficient and tidy my room and make an insightful post about Socrates and the internet, not to mention process milliways apps and write.

Instead I have... made pasta sauce, and applied for another character at milliways.

*sighs*

On the up side, I have processed a few apps, and will do more tomorrow. I have washed various necessary clothing, and deleted/adopted out enough characters that I now only have eight, six of which don't have to be in with any real regularity. Considering my general number hovers somewhere around fifteen, this is progress, and will hopefully ensure my continued sanity. I also have the outline of the story I need to be writing, it's just the actual act of it that is intimidating me slightly.

So! Stuff for tomorrow:

- work on apps some more
- work on fic
- plan other fic, put together email with plot ideas
- get clothes dry and put away.

Now I have a Plan. Ain't I clever?

Time for sleep, I think.
