A Disturbing Lalafell Story

[@pathra]

This may have been the drama story that made me take a break from reading drama stories LMAO!

[@Fearno]

Omg I remember in one of your streams back in maybe April or May that you had a crazy lalafell story to share in a following stream, but I sadly missed that one, and you took a break from KZbin after. I’m wondering if THIS was the story from back then 😱 bc if so, oh LAWDY lmfao XD

[@Karasugou_]

I play a Female Lalafell, but I hate when people sexualize us and make things weird. I JUST WANNA BE CUTE. Im like a lil dress up doll and the outfits you can make are adorable. I love making peoples day when they see me and my lil outfits.

[@Chiller-pc1dv]

Omg I love when Lalafell girls wear those frilly dresses! They're so cute! Looking like an actual living doll! So adorable! Then I try the outfit on my Miqo, and it's not as cute :(. Lol. I do mods, but it's just different miqo ears, socks, and cool outfits. Maybe some hairstyles

[@Xylus.]

Thank Hydaelyn that I managed to surround myself with normal people in this game. People who just want to run maps, do roulettes and gpose in their meticulously crafted glamours. Be careful out there sprouts.

[@feliciajohnson6412]

I am so thankful for my fc omg

[@Chiller-pc1dv]

Same, I mean gosh, I came from WoW, specifically the most...um...suggestive server and inn, and even the majority of them were super nice, I just talked to them about my guinea pig. Promiscuous people can be super nice, but you just need to know what red flags to look for, and sometimes people don't show their true colors until it's too late, and that is scary.

[@jf4156]

I honest to god hate people who make being a lalafell weird so much, I literally just like playing small races in games as tanks - the fantasy of being a tiny halfling type character overcoming enemies that are 10x their size is so awesome to me. Its such a shame the freaks ruin it and make people assume things about you. I truly despise it

[@PrincessofKeys]

I mean I hate how people make lalafells out to be kids because of their small stature. I in my entire time playing never thought that and never will to thsi day. In a matter of fact anyone can make any race "weird" I'm sure thats the case with Au ra. Anyways I hate the discrimination against lalafells is all.

[@jf4156]

@@PrincessofKeys Yeah, in a way I can sort of understand how people are 'weirded out' by lala but honestly theyre just chibi and I guess its just something westerners find strange. It sucks, its fun playing a small race. Also youre so right about au'ra thats where the true degenerates are

[@oEXTRA]

Ey a fellow player that gets why playing a small guy is so awesome! I play small races for the same exact reason. It's both hilarious and amazing to see someone small do the impossible. With that said, yeah it's just weird how some people go about it. I usually just ignore it and keep it moving, but this story was quite disturbing.

[@jf4156]

@@oEXTRA Yeah dude, some of the cutscenes made me so emotional as lala too, so much pressure to save everyone put on such a little guy :')

[@denofpigs2575]

@@PrincessofKeys People will morally grandstand about lalas being children but ignore when their favorite bearded strummer manipulates underaged fans for sex. I learned to ignore those freaks years ago.

[@kestopia1993]

After watching this, definitely gonna be more cautious cause I play as a Lala. That being said I wish everyone who plays nothing but safe adventures.

[@MuyuBeamEnjoyer]

Now I feel lucky knowing the most extreme RP I've seen is a lalafell black mage who just stood in the corner of the room during every fight of a dungeon telling us to kill for her. No one spoke to her, we just finished the dungeon and fled the scene.

[@ditzyhere3138]

Well this is certainly...uh dramatic. OP might have seen the seedier side to the RP scene but the way he types makes it seem like he's writing fanfiction than about personal experiences. Trembling while learning there's BDSM fcs? This one guy popping up to save/inform him/attempting to save his lala soul each time some terrible people try to take away his innocents? Come on. lol

[@markup6394]

I have to admit I had the same impression... still... internet's a crazy place and people take all shapes and forms there.

[@jamesmiddleton2625]

Yeahhh this seems very dramatic, embellished and way too detailed. 😂

[@skycastrum5803]

Lol, little did we all suspect, the author is Kito. (No clue, but seems believable.)

[@kiiturii]

exactly. The whole epilepsy thing gave it away as clearly fake too.

[@brachyzoid]

These sound like bs. I'm pretty sure the Haurchefant room is from a horror house from a year ago on Twitter.

[@Chiller-pc1dv]

Tbh, I don't doubt stuff like this does happen, but the way the story was worded, does give some....red flags I suppose? Feels all main character like, too dramatic with the words they used, but idk.

[@The_Revan]

I think I can understand Kito's thought process. Its hard to explain but its like how a lot of criminals would tell children to never follow their path, just study hard and lead a decent life despite them being; for the lack of a better term; fucked up. They still have some measure of morals and refuses to rope innocents in to their dark world. On a side note - for fellow Lala players. Do be careful when you out and about on venues. If people are telling you to be careful about a certain place or people, there is a reason and my personal advice is to just stay the fuck away; regardless if they can provide proof or just made it up. I'd rather not gamble on the chance I will stumble on something fucked up like OP.

[@melonkollyNZ]

that was super messed up and i can say i relate to OP, being naive on the internet to literal strangers. but OP came across as someone who didn't curb their curiosity like kito said and ended up being roped into several more-than-uncomfortable situations.

[@MorryOnTheFence]

Your innocence when saying "What are snuff videos?" made me kinda smile 😅 Yes, don't look it up.

[@kungfuvoodoo9889]

Or at the very least if you know its definition that'll probably ensure you don't go looking it up and find out the hard way (I'll put the definition in the read more section below and a trigger warning here just in case): ... ... ... ... snuff films are video tapes of irl unstaged murder, often involving r*pe and torture, and the sick people who frequently view it are often aroused by it

[@AndroidA258]

these stories are too detailed for too long to be real, no way this is real

This sounds less and less like an horror story and more like poorly written fanfic. I know people like that exist but heck knowing it doesn't hearing about it any less strange.

[@khmatrix]

Tbh... Im surprised at the same time not at all. Would I been better off not knowing this story? Definitely. But seeing this story as a PSA is helpful. One must be careful when engaging in social activities with other players. Ig I was lucky being mostly a solo player and play with friends I met prior to 14

[@DrunkenEros]

There's no way people actually believe this is real. It reads like a bad fanfiction where someone is living out their main character fantasy. It's far too convenient that everyone's character is either MIA or deleted. And a whole club shutting down because of one creep? BS

[@septonyte]

Why does this Kito guys keep showing up when the main character makes random groups of friends? It sounds like he magically has his fingers in all the pies but people like that are rare? This sounds like a bad creepy pasta. I'll take "Stories that never actually happened" for a thousand.

[@Zezepo]

1000% fake. Entertaining, but there's no way the story is as it actually happened, if this is even based on real events. I can vouch for the existence of clubs and circles with really dark niche fetishes, but this story is just waaay too out there to believe without the conveniently deleted evidence.

[@DrunkenEros]

Because it's fake lol

[@nemisyne]

Also not sure why anyone would permanently switch to ff11 over ff14. Even if 11 is better (I have no idea) it isn't going to keep being updated

[@lyndina8492]

Lots of those "Stories" are fake and probably just imagination.

[@l3ete1geuse]

This story has a lot of things in it that give it credibility, IMO. OP is vulnerable mentally and gets love bombed and groomed by players to gain his trust. Once they have that, it's easy to manipulate him into doing things he wouldn't otherwise do. The Kito guy is also believable. I've seen many drug addicts that will go out of their way to try and prevent new people from getting addicted like they are cause they see the mess their life is. It's true that this is on the web and people can say anything. But given the things I've delt with in MMOs, I have little reason to believe OP is lying.

[@baronvonboomboom4349]

Potentially pedo stuff aside, I guess I'm more of a mod purist. I understand folks want to tweak things to make it look more pleasing to them, but if your character is modded to the point to where it looks from a completely different game, I just find it disrespectful to the devs and their hard work.

[@broth54c]

6:21 - 6:26 at that moment…I knew…THAT LALA IS DOOMED Why?! Why would you even try to go along with it to MESS WITH THE DUDE?! 😂 okay, I’ll listen to the rest of the story! Update: okay, Knowing that he realized his mistake to communicating with that guy is reassuring to know he didn’t go any further and immediately blocked him. And the memory of the incident fresh in his mind was enough to leave the game, I don’t blame him. Though I understand trying to test the waters of RP, but ERP in this game is the worst way to start. Someone should have guided the Lala to try out regular Bars/Taverns or Fight Venues, any venue that is more on the SFW side and leveled out with people in a normal way, not lewded.

[@knightsurda]

Yea having played games like Tera before even trying 14 I already knew how bad ERP could get, god I wish I could forget when they introduced Elins..., to think it could be topped by FF14 of all games is beyond shocking

Ugh this story was particularly hard to listen to. How do people get themselves wrapped up into crap like this? Furthermore, there's so much more to RP than just ERP , clubs, fetishes, kinks ect. Its a shame some people get introduced to it that way and not how much fun it can be to go on adventures and build friendships, rivalries and what not but also OP should have gotten the hell out of there a long time ago

I really don't get people who get up in arms about Lalafell. Like, they are in fact adults? And some of the best characters in the story are Lalafell. ...I mean, this is fucked up, but still!

[@KagagiouX]

Well the GOOD news, Lala =/= Kid. The Bad news... EVERYTHING ELSE! Well, in all fairness, people get bored and well... "Idle hands are the Devil's playground." So next time you hear yourself say you're bored of a game, recall this story... others are bored too... and they want to make a friend... MWUA HA HA! "A TEST OF YOUR REFLEXES!" Sorry... habit. Anyway, Hito probably was one of those folks that was, "Okay, look, you're my friend dude, but the path I walk... it's not for you." Then when OP began on the path, Hito ran interference and showed OP 'how deep the rabbit hole goes' so OP understood before fully getting entrapped, er, enraptured by it.

[@amberpierce2044]

Oh my god, I think I have been to this FC. I like to explore houses with friends. And this matches the description, its funner to look at houses/clubs on their closed hours.

[@azadalamiq]

Old vid but felt compelled to post minus the few replies. I'm a long time vet of ff14, have 3 years of rp under my belt and have mained female lalafell, au ra and male miqo'te. first a foremost... as a long time rper who did rp on crystal and aether... Clubs are not scene as "serious" RP venues. They are largely "for profit" places run by people, or an fc to have as a hang out. they largely sprang up during covid, but have since taken over the RP scene. There are some that do focus on RP, and simply wish to give good experiences. If you wish to see a better idea of RP do not go to a club but a venue with RP as a focus, like a Cafe or tavern. A lot of these places tend to be hang out for people to RP at, met other Rp'er and craft organic RP stories. Most places that do have ERP have a lot of guidelines that highlight consent being a big deal and take seriously. If you go to a venues and someone tries to be flirty, or entice you to erp.. say no if you are not interested, they may back off. If not report... it to venue staff, and they will help you as harassment is taken seriously. can stuff slip through the cracks? yes... i myself have had negative experiences.. but i avoid those places, and block those people. One thing i do not personally like, is the discrimination against lalafells, they are an adult race.. and should be treated as such. This is very much an asian/japanese game so they tend to have more cuter looking small characters, and alt fashion like goth-loli... but that does not make them kids. I wasn't a fan of my rp limited due to me being a lalafell, and felt compelled to fanta/name change just to experience unlimited RP. I largely got into RP as i was introduced into a game of DnD and use RP to help me "talk in character" while playing. I had a blast minus some horror stories. It bugs me when people criticize other for what race they place as.. and feel it stunts RP a bit for some. As for those ppl who do rp as kids with their lalafell? as long as it's with in the ToS and their not troling with it, who cares... I've seen some pretty heartwarming and whole rp by people who do this. They wanted to create a family narrative and simply have wholesome fun to places. Why ruin that? RP can be a fun activity to give your mind a creative outlet and do other stuff then grind tomes daily, you can meet and make great friends through it as well. I know i have made some good friend through my time, my oldest one being my "bro" who has been with me for 3 years. he is fickle so may not always chat, or always online.. but we there for each other when it counts most. So if ya can try not to admonish the entire rp community over bad actors.. most of us in the community call these guys out, and kep tabs with each other so our venues stay safe. Just avoid the bad actor venues... the moment you notice And report as needed. GM and SE do take harassment seriously.

[@Rebel3000]

I honestly dislike the club scene. I run a bar & lounge myself on Mateus, we dont allow erp at all. Flirting, fine, but if someone goes to far, or someone is uncomfertable, we'll try to manage it privatly, or have the offender removed (which i havnt had to yet thank the 12) and ive seen places that specificly ban lalafell for being child-like, and i cant wrap my head as to why. I gotta compete with these clubs that iffer erp, i dont really know how well they do but the Galbadia has ups and downs. Me and my characters treat lalafell like adults and seriously, despite me encountering more lalagremlin than serious lalafell. I allow lalafell like i allow everyone else (even the semi-rpers that dont do quotes when their characters talk). My freind would play as a lala and get kicked out of even normal restraunts, so i make it a point to welcome Lalafell like i would anyone else

[@MidnightEkaki]

Even in lalas are adults there are lolicon/shotacons who sexualise them as kids so i think its a good decision to keep that behaviour out

[@Julio-cp1kb]

I mean you can do anything in any game as people mod them too its not just ffxiv just watch yourself in any of those games and be careful. Anyways, this is why I don't have the chat mode in public even if I say something sfw I always use fc chat. I hardly go to parties but I don't do much on them expect dance and check out the place ..if I'm not shy. Only thing that disturbed me is the fact some people think they were a minor and sharing those kinds of things with others.

[@jenasys520]

The amount of time and energy people put into doing stuff like this on a game is exhausting even listening to. I love creativity, but this is something I just dont understand. I have met some very dramatic or intense people, but nothing like this. I would need a break from reading drama stories after this too lol

[@Kitkat5335]

@10:48 what Warhead-228 says can't be true enough. Been in a FC that has been a mix of RP/ERP and non RP/ERP. More often than not the RP/ERP people brought around the strangest of drama. Still remember one time when doing EX fights to get mounts where we were all chatting and a new RP fling of one was with us. We were suddenly talking about a mechanic of the fight and one of us said 'It's a trap!.' This RP fling went off the deep end saying 'Don't say that, I don't like that word.' We all stopped and finally one said 'What are you talking about?' They continued saying 'Just don't say that word, it is hurtful.' Finally I had to ask 'What word? You mean it's a trap? The mechanic is a trap.' The person got super offended and dropped out of the call then left the party. We found out later they were a female that RP/ERP'd a male in disguise. The half of us that weren't into the RP/ERP scene all said about the same thing 'You can't be serious?' "Talking about a literal trap mechanic triggered them as if we were calling a person a trap?' "I'm not apologizing, that is dumb since it is two totally different contexts. Either they can understand that or we just won't help on the other fights.' Needless to say, we continued on with the other fights without them around. Slowly most of us left the FC since the RP/ERP member that brought the extra in was the lead and it had made the whole thing awkward to say the least after. Anymore I simply avoid RPers because they more often than not tend to have something wrong. Edit: After listening the whole thing, have to say this person certain ended up on the weird side of FFXIV, even for the RP/ERP side of things. Doesn't change my mind that they all have certain issues at times. Yes, some can be perfectly fine. However, the kind in this story is the reason why you hear about Yoshi P not endorsing any kind of mods - period. Making depraved, mean spirited, or even age-play has made it such a headache. This coming from someone who used to make mods for FFXI, I can only imagine how much worse the ones on FFXIV can be and why I never even looked into it when the FC I mention above tried to lure me into it. Just told them it wasn't my cup of tea, too old for the drama, and only did game related things with them until eventually leaving like other non-rp members did. Also, as someone who uses SecondLife, at least there you always know what someone else is seeing or looks like since everything about that is handled server side rather than client side like FFXIV. No need to worry that you're just standing there while on the other persons screen they are doing and seeing god knows what on their end.

[@weirdbutokay4750]

So thhis Kito guy honestly remind me of some folk i know in the kink scene. Folk who are into the more agressive and bloody stuff (knife play and consentual mutilation) Most of the ones i knew were overdramatic campy edge lords. Because well, you're gonna tie up, cut on & even set folk on fire. And both of you are going yo enjoy it. Theres mental rubber banding you have to be able to do to be in the scene despite hours & days of prep before hand, knowing where the energency kits are & constantly checking in with your partner through the screams. (Verbally and non) Theres a self serious camp that come with that. And those ive known in those scenes are exceptionally protective of new kinksters . Constant warnings and examples of bad actors and tell tell signs a scene mighr be turning into SA. And make no doubrtthats what OP went through. They desperately want you to be into the same things, but understand that it could fuck you up if its not your kink. That said none of the ones i knew would ever associate with pedos, or hold space for dangerous folk. Being a friend to a predator makes you their mask. Some one else who trust you will trust them by association. That said i don't know what it is but while ive only ever had one bad time irl in digital spaces it was almost a given. And the more niche your intrest the harder it was to find safe places to induldge. I get why some would be tempted to turn a blind eye to the rotting corners of a place. Because if you didn't you'd be a a homeless pariah. Kito even tied his finace to these roten folk. Still, not forgiveable. I hope they've grown and seperated from such shite folk. And in any case i hope them and their customers (especially the seziure inducing ones & the pedos) face hard bloody conxequences soon.

[@kikih4337]

So at 4:30 the reason RP venues ban lalas is because it tends to go down a dark path it's actually quite common for lalas to be banned from venues at least on the servers I've been to. Also seen some comments about having to be 18 to get into a guild that should be a red flag for those guilds that it might not be a rated E group. Also while yes leather is a type of gear it's also a kink for those who don't kno so plz maybe double check before walking into RP settings that it's what you think it it 😅

[@Elsa_Icywind]

this story is so bad and horrifying. i have a couple lala friends i run maps with in game on a daily basis and its sad to hear how many of the lala's get treated this way even in an rp setting i always treat people with respect. i wont lie i call lala's little ones since they are shorter than my bun girl, but i have not ever treated them like kids unless it is part of their backstory. i also know a lala who does extremely well designed houses. i really feel bad that not just lala's but other first time venue goers experience this. as a greeter manager i make sure new venue goers are comfortable, enjoy their time, and are aware of the things involved when attending a venue. This is very sad to me as someone who enjoys venues.

[@hatchettwit]

Coming from the degens, even I'm disturbed. Respect consent, don't coerce people into things, and don't make other uncomfortable.

[@emgarcia5636]

I think it's kinda fucked up to say Kito was sus like he respected this person's boundaries, didn't try to rope them into shit and made it very clear who he was and what he was into and gave OP a choice whether or not they wanted to be friends. He was the good guy in this? His crime is... enjoying transgressive media? I get the element of implied sexual gratification grosses people out but like. It's fictional at the end of the day, who cares what he gets off to as long as nobody gets hurt?

As someone who also RP's on Conan sometimes. These are KINK places. And there is MUCH worse done there then what she just read.. I don't associate myself with that stuff but made the mistake of joining a random server once and.. god. Yeah no. I wish it was something I could unsee.

There are a few golden rules that I follow while playing FF14. If there is ERP available in a RP venue - Fuck this shit I'm out! Honestly this OP needs to grow up and set boundaries for themselves. And this sounds way too much like some K-Drama or anime. So it's hard for me to believe.

I dont realy mind any of the stuff that happens cause i know what people do lalafell stuff is off limits though if i would find out anyone of my friends do these kind of things with or as lalafell i would report them and blacklist them sofar i havent met any i hope

[@ImmortalSelkie]

was hard to pay attention to the story, you were good just spent the whole time trying to decide if that viera was wearing 2b thigh highs or somthing else and its been disturbing me because i cant rly tell O.O its like not finishing a knocking rythm or yeeting naughts and crosses before you finish the game. Edit: i see a line im going to assume they did a hell of a good job matching skin tone for my sanity.

[@obliviouschipmunk6539]

There was so much dogging on the OP about why he stuck around but people overlook the effects on decision-making that both youthful naivety and loneliness have on a person, even more so when in unison.

[@TheEvilMinion]

JESUS CHRIST! Swear to gawd the other night some friends and I were club hopping and wound up in some leather bar club LOL. We stood around laughing until a Lala came in dressed as a leather daddy but without pants......naked. So cringe, after that we got the hell out of there. Wonder if I was actually at the same place as a lot of what the OP was describing sounds like what we saw. Maybe they reopened the place??? It was bad, really bad.

@@LordOdio A place you frequent no doubt ;)

[@sepphero9639]

Hear me out completely before you send me hate messages. I am familiar with ERP (mostly out of FF but in FF very rarely) and for the second story i was with the chick till she was all "awwww it's alright if you are minor" simply because if you take the matter seriously of not wanting to ERP with minors you have to get a little weird because if you ask blatantly they will just lie, let's face it, if we got into that as horny minors most of us would too. That whole kloe thing was weird tho.

[@markup6394]

I mean... I use some aethetic mods... just to get rid of that terrible elezen gait and have some more long-hair options... aaaaand having proper hands with nails and the ability to actually really walk bare feed (not with those flesh colored sandels - whose idea what that anyway?). But yeah... even knowing humanity's heart can be a pit straight into hell, this one was still heavy... o.O

[@Infinitenull]

Something I want to say. There's nothing wrong with people exploring their kinks (within reason, pedos come on), but only with those that are aware and are willing to participate. Tricking someone into joining their world is degrading both to those that participate in those types of activities and to the person they're trying to goad/trick into it. There are better ways of doing it and if someone is so clueless they don't know what's going on, don't try to drag them along. I also log into Second Life like Kito and I know there is some screwed up stuff that people are interested in so it's not surprising to encounter this elsewhere....

[@IGotsBadFeeling]

OP just needed to fucking bail. Stop humoring these people, jesus christ..

[@paigeruhf4706]

This is FFXIV creepy pasta o-o

[@Shinku_no_sanbun]

I have to say, I'm incredulous about this story. I think someone just made up a drama story to get you to read it for everyone and see your reaction. First of all, I don't believe a venue like that was hugely popular every night with normal people. I don't believe they'd invite someone in with intent to tempt them, risking getting in trouble in the process, instead of making people jump through hoops to prove what they're into before ever inviting them. A single person falling into that many fetish clubs without actively looking for them, and they all just happen to have this one guy involved, and then he just willy nilly tell him all about it... it just seems super unlikely. Also honestly some of the dialogue this mystery guy spouts feels soap-opera-ish, like it was dialed up for dramatic effect.

[@CapriciousKitty]

I just got into the game everyone has been so kind that after playing games for 30 years I've never seen such a kind community and knew this was suspicious. 😂

[@erdnuzz8368]

Now i truly know why there should be an apocalypse on Eorzea.... ...holy-

[@bixusmaleficus]

That one comment "Get the spray bottle" is priceless! Love it! lol

[@aesthral]

thankfully i only use mods with my bestie to be cute together and not weirdos allowed we dont even rp we just play and SLAYYYY but before knowing about mods i remember one time i died from cringe form seeing a female lalafell with really blue eye shadow black lipsticks, black boots and the swimsuit/dress from the first moon fire festival in black in the middle of limsa lominsa and I just had to blacklist that person DISGUSTING.

[@DiabolusCiel]

As disturbing as this was, I'm glad I know this story now. I knew there were messed up things beneath the surface, but now I know how little I actually knew. It'll definitely help keeping my guard up high.

[@jadestar4]

OMG yay! It's been so long!

[@Siinwu]

ERP, fine. ERP while believing its with a minor... yikes! PS: you cant report what people do or say on like discord ect. unless they do it ingame. FYI.

[@azadalamiq]

nah you can report it. people got busted for youtube and discord stuff. plus you can report people on discord.

[@N00bie666]

... yes you can lmao. not only can you report it to Squex providing you have sufficient evidence and a concrete link to the game, you can report it to discord/whatever platform directly

[@yourneopetisstarving]

Only early in the video but OP is not fully blameless for the start, and neither are OPs friends. They CHOSE to take a freshly 18yo person (OP) to a (seemingly) kink-friendly venue with a CLEAR 18+ theme to incite drama, then they're shocked when someone flirts with them after they go along with it and encourage it at first? There's nothing wrong with treating Lalas like the adult characters they ARE, and it's good that the venue weren't judgemental, I just wish OP would have said that they did NOT consent from the beginning. If the story is true though, it sucks that the FC and then Kito person took it WAY too far and messed with OP. Idk, I just hope everyone learned from this.

[@G4M4YUN13L]

man that was messed up, and i had no clue there are people with snuff mods ... smh

[@bezelleblanc2580]

I have four characters in game, with my now main being a male miqo'te, and I've had other people who play as male miqo'tes aggressively hit on me 😑 but when I don't reciprocate, they get offended, and I'm just like (?) Shit like this is why I only roleplay with friends these days and rarely ever put the RP tag on. If I go to a venue, I always bring at least one with me. I swear many of the players in this game should be on a list, and this horror story has made me even more cautious.

[@lcarrier652]

got to the part when the msg went out to the whole venue...JUST CLOSE APP !! you cant recover from that

[@TechneMakre]

the glitch room seems like a cool scary room for halloween, otherwise weird af story and kito seems like a very dramatic edgelord but at least he got op out of the venue fc. moral of the story is: if it sucks, hit the bricks

[@ShxpxRok]

as a modder all I can say is you guys should never see the mods in the game if this makes you uncomfy with erpers just texting, The 1st page of xma sfw mods will absolutely traumatize you for life ahahahahaha~ if you get unsolicited stuff however with proof and logs should absolutely report tf outta peps like that girl with the kid in 2nd story for ex the minor photos of khloe that's nsfl stuffs not accepted by the general mod community and again mods if shared can get you banned :D do 👏 not 👏 lewd 👏 the 👏 kids! the guy in the last story shouldn't be online to begin with lmao and he just keeps going

[@FaythRender]

All the terrible stuff aside I legitimately didn't know that some venues don't let you in as a lalafel. I'm glad I'm not lala anymore 😂

[@marcmata5574]

I don't understand why people are so weird around lalafells. They're literally adults. They're mature in mind and age. They're just as qualified as a roegadyn to carry an axe and kill people with it. But some venues are so weird that they won't let these mass murderers (yeah, ive seen lalafells tank baelsars wall before) enter a stupid venue. Lolorito is a greedy mastermind of a savage. So lorewise, they're of legal age to do anything a full size race can.

[@faeriekitten]

The way this story is worded reads as really fake to me tbh... It's just way too detailed and reads like a fictional horror story than genuine encounters. Espeically describing how people were talking, how they "trembled" and how their "friend" was offline for so long and then just happened to show back up at the right time to show them the horrors of the friend group they were in. However, that being said, there are truths to this story even if the story itself is fake. First, Dark RP is definitely a thing. I personally have never engaged in it, but I have known people who did that kind of stuff. I don't necessarily find a problem with it as long as all people involved have consented to it - that is like, the most basic rule of any kind of RP. Second, lewding lalafell and underaged characters in this game is also, very unfortunately, a thing. I've definitely gotten very weird tells before on my lalafell when I used to play it for a bit. I just ignored them, though. I actually used to work for a small venue some years back that I think is not operating anymore. It was like a bar/lounge sort of deal. I was not a lalafell (I was a catgirl I think), but after about six months of working there, I eventually found out that they are fine with staff or customers lewding with lalafell if both parties consented. It was kept very on the DL which gave me the ick, bc it gave me this impression that they know this sort of thing is werid/creepy and people might not support their venue if it was common knowledge. I soon made up an excuse for leaving the venue and dipped. Not only bc of my own opinions, but I'm also not going to hang out with those kind of people. If I could give any advice to "normal" people who play lalafell, don't let these people convince you that it's "okay" or "normal" just bc the people in ther circle are okay with it. Of course their circle is okay with it, these kind of people tend to stay grouped together. I would also mention that a majority of the RP scene is NOT like this, and NOT okay wth it. These type of people are more in the minority. If you find yourself in a circle or group like that, just leave. With 7.0 upon us, it'll also be easier to blacklist these types of people so they can''t bother you again. Stay safe out there everyone.

[@genesisnebul5724]

Props to the friend. Kito had his own crap, but he was looking out for OP. I would have been sad losing a friend like the, regardless of what they're into behind closed doors. Guardian demon. They're out there.

I feel like I've seen these rooms before, I'm pretty sure this place is on Crystal DC.
