Where did Gor go?
Member Blog post · General
I've been in gor for twenty odd years. Long enough to have seen it die. It seems that all who are left are either in the shadows to avoid the accusations or people that accuse. The sad part is that Gor is not alone. Role play as a whole has dwindled too. The great raging wars between rooms have ended. The only warriors left have either moved on in life or sit and watch it crumbled.
Now there are so few left in Gor that one liar can wreck it for any and all. What we used to call drama queens and petty princesses now seem to rule the roost. Those that didn't move on to become Social Justice Warriors and the ilk. It's sad really.
Helisto has taken to using npcs as ground units. I doubt for malicious reasons. I would say it is for lack of real people. And fair enough.
Gor has died. There was a time when rooms would get so full you could not keep up with text. We had to have people hold posts so girls could serve! Now rooms sit empty. One wonders why they even pay for them. Is it in hopes of a return? That was my hope... I figure I am what? 4 years too late or 6? No matter.I have my few and will show them the old ways while the princesses play their games.

Tok made a fair comment about Helisto's use of NPC's. We never used them in the long-gone past when Goreans were plentiful, but they also offer additional r/p opportunities to play characters well outside your 'established' role and are fun and 'expendable'! Lately, though, we have seen a few returnees to Gor and can often have 4-6 people in the room which, with an NPC or two, is a good number for role play. We remain positive!!
Talarius? As a person, I hope you grow and find the joy you seek. As a Pirate! I want your teeth for my buttons!
Personally, I want to dance on the splintered burned out hulks of your ships ;)
AAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA
It's good to see you back. As for me, I'm trying to get back to where I was these past few years, but life throws you for a loop when you work 40 hours a week and have doctors appointments the rest, but hopefully that will change
I wish you good fortune and god speed in healing, Iskander.
I went through that tonight Iskander. Good seeing you still about,
Long time, Tok, how's tricks?
Haven't seen tricks. Think she'll come back?
Probably not with puns of that quality.

😳🤓🙄
We need more Goreans back now
