A FREE HAT

Everyone with an account as of RIGHT NOW has this rad Homoween 2022 hat. It is not for sale and will never be distributed again.

If you'd like to wear it, please visit https://rdrama.net/hats and press the EQUIP button beside it. As a reminder, you can equip an unlimited number of hats, and it will randomly cycle between them.

p.s. can someone please use the Vax award on me? I don't want to be a gay zombie.

Hello! Happy Monday!

We're kicking off this exciting week right and rolling out a feature I originally proposed back in January: mandatory pronouns! You'll be disappointed to know that my original proposal - which was to require pronouns at signup, and not allow any pages to be viewed for existing users until they set their pronouns, and these were all from a preset list of pronouns and neopronouns - did not come to pass, and the final product is the much more clever, much less hateful variant you see before you now. Everyone is a nice, gender neutral they/them by default. This cannot be avoided and is a million times smarter than disabling the site until pronouns are set and I am VERY EXCITED about this.

If you're not a they/them, that's totally okay! Just head on over to your settings page and you can correctly gender yourself.

Going forward, please remember to respect others' pronoun preferences. We've been lenient about this in the past, due to the confusion inherent in not having a dedicated pronouns field (and we are deeply sorry for the harm this caused), but now there is no excuse for misgendering your fellow rDrama users. It's 2022 and while the United States regresses to 1822 around us, we will not fall with them. Hate has no home here, and failure (read: willful refusal) to respect your fellow users' identities will not be tolerated.

Have a great week!

there is a typo in the code we forgot an s lol wait a minute while this is merged and server restarts, then you can change your pronouns

RESOLVED

Awards will CARRY OVER to next year by the way. They WILL NOT be refunded.

Buy lootboxes though. Get those lootbox badges and spender badges and lootbox badge discounts and spender badge discounts.

If you buy enough of them I might even make more lootbox badges with even further discounts.

You can disable the freaking profanity filter if you’re some kind of gosh dang a-hole poophead but I’d advise against it. Broaden your vocabulary instead!

The slur filter now supports regex or whatever so we can have RNG replacements. But a lot of my original replacements have become a thing so I didn’t add any besides for niglet I don’t think. I also replaced cute butch because whoever came up with “cute lesbian” was really uninspired and should be ashamed.

There are new cheeky replacements as well but we don’t talk about those. I will be adding more as time goes on.

This upgrade was inspired by the brilliant mind of Dr. Oaken

and we are now roughly 40% more inscrutable if you’re brand new to the internet, or are completely incapable of picking up on context clues to infer obvious meaning like her.

Next up is a boring revision to the clusterfrick that is the Settings pages. Given that simply blocking cuss words took Devrama down for like a half hour, I project that making settings coherent will bring down the main site for roughly 4 years. This outage will begin tomorrow, or possibly tonight if I can’t sleep.

Pic unrelated but far more important than any of this nonsense - look at this amazing new MT I scored. For the gay losers who don’t know what this means, allow me to explain:

This is an alien style rifle. That has the highest base damage output in NMS, for one thing. For another, it’s absolutely ridiculous looking which is excellent.

But the really important part is the supercharged tech slot placement. See those Scatter Blaster mods? Those are the 4 SC slots. Not the legendary 2x2 positioning, but one of those has yet to be proven to actually exist. The 3x1 layout is almost functionally identical to a theoretical 2x2 and better according to some schools of thought.

I grabbed two. The PVP variant obviously has Blaze Javelin modules in the SC slots, but here we have the PVE one where I don’t even need to use over half the available slots because that fricking Scatter Blaster can take out a mech with one volley and a walker with a single clip.

Incredible find.

Did you buy and receive something from our Redbubble? Are you tired of pinging me for the badge? Post a picture of your haul here and I'll give it to you finally.

Note that Marsey Hypebeast badge

requires a photo of you in our clothes.

The Consoomer badge is for stickers, clocks, etc.

While I have your attention:

would there be any use in adding each and every badge to a pin in the shop

would absolutely anyone at all want this

@Zenzic much appreciated king

@alakavat thank u for the platy tags

Join !badgemaxxers for announcements of new badge opportunities and contests.

Pinging !badgemaxxers as a non-carp will result in expulsion from the group.

Democracy is so not fetch, so we’ve gone ahead and done this anyway. The word “cool” is now automatically slur filtered to “fetch”. Those who voted no will soon be banned for being either children or, worse, zoomers. Those who fail to change their name color to pink on Wednesdays may also find themselves on the chopping block.

Krayon (sister toucher) has had his sentence enacted as well.

My Christmas vacation is now over and I have to work in 35 minutes and I don’t wanna :(((((((

bottom text

Grinches have a TOGGLE to disable the Fistmas music if they decide to see just how many awful decisions they can make in one day.

500 coins in the shop, same as last year. Unless I misremembered. Either way, though, it’s in the shop. Buy it and use it on yourself for a FREE BADGE.

If you already have the grinch badge from last year, there’s no need to buy it again.

Note that this is different than the Hallowgrinch badge and award which only applies to Homoween.

Well done, everyone who earned this badge! (me)

Text is wonky, will fix later. Good job though fish!!!!!!

edit: fixed

I should make another badge for that lightning quick response time to a major issue.

We have three holes now with various restrictions on viewing:

• /h/masterbaiters — logged-in users only, for gayops

• /h/countryclub — 1000 truescore, for whatever you want (but not gayops)

• /h/chudrama — 5000 truescore, nothing changed

There is no longer a "Club" toggle. Use /h/countryclub. Keep in mind the truescore limit on club had been *1* for the past couple months, so this is a big upgrade in exclusivity.

This is partially a compromise solution, but it makes the code actually manageable and gives people all of the reasonable asks: masterbaiters gayops won't get outed to Google and loggedoutcels, and countryclub 1000 TS restricts to 10% of all accounts and 30% of weekly active accounts for whatever semi-exclusive crap you want to post.

Addressing frequent suggestions:

"1000 TS is too easy to get, it should be 5000 TS" — The latter is still like 20% of weekly active accounts. The difference isn't as big as you think it is.

"I think Bardfinn has <x> truescore, you should make the limit <x+1>" — Is this Bardfinn in the room with us right now? If you have credible evidence of someone being Bardfinn, modmail us and we'll ban xim, which excludes from the restricted holes. There are people who seem to think Bardfinn has a secret account with over 10 000 truescore. There is no level that will "exclude Bardfinn" in everyone's mind.

"Let us choose whatever arbitrary truescore requirement we want" — This is dumb and you should feel bad for suggesting it. It's an idea with great UX, and it will totally accomplish what you hope it will: I would've posted something if only ≥1050 TS people could see it, but not ≥1000, no sir. You know what we need? More amorphous conditions on who can see what on a site with low-four-digits of active users. (42 069 TS Century Club when?)

like this:

result would be:

this is to encourage ppl to post their rightoid garbage posts there instead of pooping up the main feed

!chuds celebrate

!nonchuds deliberate

Thanks to @monkeystyle for making the janniecord leaks unreadable for a few hours! Fixed.

Thanks to the lovely @float-trip, you can now uncomfortably touch ANY and ALL users with one simple command. Behold!

: @usernamepat :

Here’s your fricking Marseys.

https://rdrama.net/submit/marseys

Submit them there. Tag them. I will approve and change tags/names as needed.

NOTE

1. Naming conventions are marseyWHATEVER; no portmanteaus of things for the NAME. Farting marsey would be marseyfarting, NOT fartsey.

2. If your proposed name already exists, it will tell you this. Add a 2. If that already exists, add a 3.

3. REGARDING TAGS: Tags are meant to aid in searching. They are not meant to be jokes or memes. They are also not meant to describe the image. A marsey wearing a blue tux and smiling as she farts, named marseyhappyfarting for example? Good tags: smile brap toot suit. You don’t need “blue” you don’t need “cat” you don’t need “feline” you don’t need “drawing” or whatever the frick. You also don’t need to include anything that is in the name. So tagging things “marsey” is redundant. Tagging this one “happy” would be redundant. Tagging it “fart” would be redundant. Why? Read on!

4. This part is so simple but so constantly overlooked by you people that I’m giving it its own point. Emojisearch doesn’t search for exact matches of the full string. If you have “farting” in the name or tag, a search for “fart” will return it already. You don’t need every conjugation of every verb, either, that helps to render searching useless.

SHIT TAGGING AND NAMING IS WHY THE MARSEYS HAVEN’T BEEN UPDATED IN MONTHS. PLEASE STOP. I WILL REJECT YOUR MARSEYS IF YOU MAKE TOO MUCH WORK FOR ME WITH YOUR GARBAGE.

Thank you

hey all,

by popular demand, we made some changes to our code specifically to accommodate lawlzposts. we've made it so that when @MasterLawlz makes a post it gets

1. automatically stickied for 24 hours

2. automatically distinguished

3. automatically flaired

in addition, lawlz pins can't be unpinned by jannies or unpin awards. they are affected by pin awards however, which will add an hour of time to the pin.

they also appear at the top above every other pinned post, regardless of when it was made
