We have a fictive from the video game Forsaken, Mafioso right

And he formed semi recently

But the thing about this is a system we were close to (they blocked us yesterday after implying I was predatory for trying to make a 16+ channel for more mature stuff and jokes, no nsfw was going to be allowed other than slight leaning jokes and I'm 17, also implying it was weird some of my online friends were younger- despite them being bodily 14 and I've known many people before knowing their ages at all)

They came to us and said "Hey can we talk to you about something"

So I was like "Hey sure what's up ^^"

"It's odd your mafioso has the same pfp as ours and formed after ours"

What??? The pfp was a top result on Pinterest btw, and our Mafioso didn't know that they had the same pfp for theirs. Like at all

Proceed to try and make us understand like "Well if we had formed a two time after you did who found the same pfp"

I would've just been like "Oh ahahaha what a coincidence, same pfp! Cool" and moved on. We were both intaking forsaken heavily, both undergoing pretty constant stress and forsaken being a game used to cope. It pissed us off how they basically implied he was a fake despite supposedly being "scared of us fakeclaiming them" because I figured out their abusive ex was faking being a system from everything small to big.

She admitted to it without me forcing the idea on her either, I would never fakeclaim directly without proof.

So yeah, then they got mad we wanted to make a 16+ channel and didn't want to require legal identification to get in, just a ticket with an application check, and said if a minor somehow lied and got in then it'd be my fault even though that'd be against the rules and they'd face warns or even a ban for it

This server was originally supposed to be less strict on certain things and this system has been pushing us for months to basically make it super restrictive on everything, which to them meant no 16+ channel at all even though... It'd be restricted to older people who can handle mature stuff without extreme censorship

Sounds pretty weird. It's very normal for servers to have age restricted channels.

We joined a server and were really active [which felt awesome cause we rarely are consistently active] and everything was going great and all til one of our fictives came up

Now there wasn’t like a list of fictives that weren’t allowed to be on the server [which uh…weird?].

But one of our fictives fronted and talked on a server and another fictive from the same source started talking to them

Which fine ya know—

Until they actively asked our fictives in question if they could treat them like source [in their source they are “the villain” of the story and are painted in a very bad light]

So they said they weren’t comfortable and that they were pretty much source separated— and when they told them that— they took it as a personal offense????

And like shamed them out of front and we haven’t seen them since??

I should really make a sticker of us saying "introjects aren't source" because goddamn people are so stupid about that

[tales-from-syscord]

i don't know where to put this since it isn't exactly "syscord" but most of the active chat members at the time were systems so.

the wilbur soot discord mods led on someone who had osdd saying they "might be able to become a mod" while they were making promotional material for free and consistently helping people. they had told me months prior that they likely wouldn't ever allow anyone with osdd/did to become a mod because keeping track of who was fronting and how dangerous it could possibly be (note: they never explicitly said dangerous, paraphrasing because i don't remember the exact language used) was too much of a hassle to deal with. they got banned a while later for what i believe was the first and only ban reason of "vendetta" which to this day i have absolutely no idea what the vendetta was because it was out of nowhere and nobody elaborated (to my knowledge) on what actually happened

this has been bothering me for fucking years because none of it matches up. they allowed a mod who made consistent and active nsfw jokes in the main chat of the server to stay but not someone with osdd..? lol

Holy fucking shit that's so insanely ableist

Not the og person who sent this but im fairly sure that was a system whos known to groom including emotionally groom us and told us to dox their groomers. They'd also use names from cultures they were very much not apart of oh and did i mention their systems friend (who was a grown ass adult) messaged us at like 16 asking why we had "littles who were sexual" and why were they letting children do sexual things.. 🔥🔥🔥🔥 we do not treat our littles as actual children and are literally a RAMCOA system with parts programmed to look and act like children while also being sexual. But they a grown adult dont need to know that about us. We are an adult now but yeah. Did i mention they own a syscord like server too? 🗣🗣 Still probably talking to minors at like 25 now or smth

Yikes.

[tales-from-syscord]

i got fakeclaimed once for using an aac. i dont know their exact reasoning, but from what the part who was fronting said in the journal, it was because “people who say they have other disorders are usually faking one of them” so? ??? ??????? that server ended up getting deleted because the owner was ableist so theres that.

What. The fuck

[tales-from-syscord]

A more positive submission for a change, but we found a server that we’ve been in for a few years now that’s really chill, it’s not super active, but the people there are all nice and we have nice interactions in it’s more active moments (I think it helps that it’s small and also associated with a certain fandom so we already share an interest with everyone in there which makes talking there a bit easier)

Aw hey that's really nice to hear :3c

[tales-from-syscord]

Never done one of these before, hello!! This ones not super crazy:

I usually don't join system servers, one of us always ends up leaving after a bit anyways because they make us uncomfortable. The last system-focused server (this server was also fictionkin/alterhuman focused for a bit of context) I had joined genuinely baffled me so much that i just stopped joining new servers altogether

It looked super normal on the outside, it had a nice little theme going on and I didn't see any sort of red flags immediately, so I joined!

When I was applying for verification and looking through various channels for the rules, I stumbled upon an entire LIST of banned "doubles" for fictionkins AND fictives?? Like god forbid you had a Keith Kogane fictive, you would be kicked or some shit (that was one of the characters on the list) so that was baffling to me. The list was SO LONG too, it was genuinely insane

This server also had a tendency to use system terms for fictionkins (as in "source" instead of "media") and when i pointed that out in my verification ticket, they denied it because it was "syscourse bullshit"

so yeah, not a hideous experience but it definitely weirded me out a lot

Say it with me folks

Introjects 👏 aren't 👏 source

When we were on syscord in 2020… we found the blacklist stupid. So we used to get burger king black listed, we made up some BS story about how our parents fought in a Burger King and we split or whatever. This worked, we got people banned for Burger King 💔

I mean you shouldn't do this but also. Can I do this with Chat GPT i hate that thing

[tales-from-syscord]

I was in a syscord that would actively make fun of systems who acted "weird" or "different" and fakeclaim them, while having a whole section in the rules dedicated to saying not to do that. It was by the mods too. The same server would jump on any creator for making a mistake and get upset you like that media. It was a fucking wild server that eventually died and got archived

Oml.. that sounds like a breeding ground for bullying

[tales-from-syscord]

a few months ago we were venting about endos and a pro endo came up to us and told us being plural wasn't disordered and that "they aren't claiming to have did" and ignored us when we explained and when we got annoyed tried to report us to the owner of the server for "being an ass" and they quickly got banned for being pro endo and using the term sysmed. bro went to an anti endo server owner to complain about someone being anti endo.

Wait why.. why did a pro endo join an anti endo server?

[tales-from-syscord]

horrible experience of one of our alters mentioning being posic in a syscord because it seemed safe and ending up being sexually harrassed, called ablest insults, and getting us collectively banned. they were supposedly supportive of delusional folk, yet repeatedly called us delusional as an insult. head in paws.

No matter what someone identifies as, they should never be sexually harassed for it

[tales-from-syscord]

i have a wilddddd story

when I was 11-12 I was in this seemingly normal syscord server (yes ik I shouldnt be on discord that young, but all my friends were and I wanted to fit in) but there was this 21 yr old who kept talking to us

basically groomed us into dating them bc it "wasn't illegal if there was no sexual things!" and said "theyd wait for us" and there was like 16 yr olds who also tried to get w/ us knowing our age I think the youngest person we "dated" (dated in quotes bc it was kinda groomish for all the relationships, but this one tbh wasn't) was that one 13 yr old who was kinda chill

yeahhh no they also did these sourcemates finding and like dating applications (owner later got exposed for being a pedo, one of my at the time close friends exposed for (g)rape and another one exposed for grooming haha...)

Fuckin hell that's awful

[tales-from-syscord]

💽🎵 again.

ok so this happened a couple months ago but it still is kinda wild to think about. we don't mod our system server anymore, but when we did we got a fucking callout post written about us and our server after rejecting a partnership since we already were partners with another of the owner's servers. the main "problem" they pointed out in their callout post was that we let people vent about triggering things... in a venting channel... that was role locked WITH a warning. the other stuff they mentioned too wasn't a huge deal either. some of it was definitely issues that we should've resolved sooner, but you could've??? just chatted with me civilly???? and i would have heard you out and fixed my problems?????????

anyway i have to go back to work. cya!

I hate it when people do big dramatic callout posts about small problems instead of first attempting to solve the issue in private

[tales-from-syscord]

One of the systems we knew believed alters from two different systems could get each other pregnant and could give each other stuff. So if an alter in our system gave an alter in their system flowers, said alter would get flowers

They were also anti endo and know system hopping between two bodies isn’t possible

I would just love to hear their logic /sarc

[tales-from-syscord]

Have one from a "system-safe" agere community I used to mod for-

We got pressured into removing our dni requesting endos don't interact with our tumblr posts. Because another mod wanted to reblog them and was pro-endo -.- and we "weren't being fair to that mod" over our *personal* tumblr.

It wasn't even like they didn't know before making us a mod either, they promoted us and *then* bombarded us over our tumblr dni

That's so.. ew.

[tales-from-syscord]

i was in a syscord that indictrinated me into some weird isolating beliefs and influenced our system really strongly. and later i realized it was literally a cult.

That's horrifying. I'm glad you got out of there

[tales-from-syscord]

not a system discord but i used to run a fanfiction book club on discord

i was not open online about being a system, but i had told a few trusted friends. mistake!! one of those trusted friends decided to tell his cousin about us. in detail. including triggers around a specific fictive.

his cousin joined our book club and seemed nice until her first meet. we would meet up in a social game and do popcorn-reading. at that meet she decided to try to trigger out that specific fictive because she liked the character and wanted to meet him. it was upsetting.

ended up removing her and my ex-friend from the book club, but the damage was done. our protector shut down the book club without warning soon after. was mortified and hurt. why can't people be normal.

this is why i do not join syscord servers. if that happened in an unrelated server because one weirdo wanted to "meet her favorite character" what could happen in a server potentially full of them? scary.

I'm so sorry that sounds awful.. and yeah, honestly I think syscords are more prone to going wrong than other servers for a wide variety of reasons (that I will not get into on this account)
