Ah, I feel the community for this game has spoiled me, as when I moved to a different game, I was shocked at the rude, crass, and more than a little bratty personality of its playerbase.

I think what makes it special is the endless sense of playfulness of all we who enter - we take joy in the juggling of words and realities and delight in those willing to splash with us in the puddles. So cheers to you all, and to FailBetter for making a world where Devils and Duchesses vie for our favour and we can snub them both for the rubbery men and the urchins. God bless us every one!

In all seriousness, I agree with everyone here. This is a fantastic community. Adorable virtual hugs all around.

Hear, hear! I think the reason why I'm still here even though the friends who introduced me aren't) is the great community. I'm happy to simply grind some months and enjoy the forums, and play seriously at other times. This certainly does not happen with other games.

I have often thought, but have sadly never given voice to, so much of what has already been said. These threads are filled with helpful, supportive, funny, and intelligent souls and qualities opposite those are hard to find here. Thank you everyone for building a delicious little corner of the world. And thank you, Kittenpox, for starting this thread!

I agree. I'm actually really happy that I decided to get deep enough into things to do a ton of exchanges of confidences at Hallowmas this year, as I feel like I've gotten to know and appreciate the great crew that live in Fallen London.

This thread put a big smile on my face. I feel so lucky to have discovered a game I truly enjoy, and doubly fortunate that it seems to repel the types of people I don't enjoy at all.* I don't use a lot of social actions in-game, and indeed I find a lonely course to be more attuned to the Neathy milieu (at least as long as I'm still exploring this world), yet I find this community to be truly indispensable in enjoying Fallen London. Be it for help, ideas, comparing notes or simply having some fun, being here feels like an integral part of the game. And if an evening of drinks in a Veilgarden salon doesn't always feel so alive on its own, imagine it to be this place, at the end of a busy day... It just feels right, doesn't it?
* And to imagine that I only found out about Fallen London through an ill-advised foray into TV Tropes! I normally avoid the place because it's such a quicksand; I'd never have imagined it would lead me to an even greater reading obsession.

And thank you, Kittenpox, for starting this thread! It took me over a year to make the post tbh, but while I expected a couple of people to be like "yeah I agree" the response has been amazing. Certainly far more than I expected when I posted the thing, that's for sure! (The fact that Alexis was the first to reply, too? Blew me away. :3 )
