While I appreciate the satire of this post and had a good chuckle, it makes me so sad. This looks like so many actual guild ads coming out these days. Same format. Same over-reliance on bullet lists. The not-totally-necessary presence of em dashes. Just needs more emojis in the titles of each section and at least three “it’s not x, it’s y” statements.

AI continues to creep further and further into the community. And in a hobby whose point is exercising and improving the creativity of the human mind, I just don’t get it.

The “it’s not x, it’s y!” stuff is so exhausting. I see it all over social media. AI tools all follow the same exact formulaic posting structure and it’s just terrible. Grouping things together by threes, the declarative conclusion statements at the end of each post. Once you spot the signs you see it everywhere. It’s terrible to read and is just outright lazy.

It really is, and I’m seeing it more and more in RP spaces as time goes on. It makes me sad to think that we’re moving toward a reality where people let AI do the heavy lifting for them even in a hobby where the entire point is to do it yourself. Not to be that old person waving a fist at clouds, but it makes me wonder how much worse it’ll get.

Seeing even more guild ads generated by AI popping up lately makes me want to start calling them all out. I mean, do people really think it’s a good idea to generate entire pitches like this? It’s not even just drafting something up and having AI proofread it. These things are almost 100% generated with a few human edits thrown in here and there.

I left my last guild over AI usage and the fundamental disagreement on its usage, detection, and gravity. To the trained eye (and those savvy enough to know how to use AI detection sites), it’s blatantly obvious. What kind of first impression is being made when a guild leader can’t even write the pitch for their own guild themselves? What’s it going to look like when real-time RP looks nothing like your forum posts or short story writes?

Stop using AI in creative writing. Use your own brain. If you struggle or don’t think you’re very good at it, practice and endeavor to improve. That’s the whole point. Using a generative crutch is only going to cause your skills to stagnate and atrophy while marking you as someone who plagiarizes or falsely presents unoriginal content as your own.

Requests iphones or androids from everyone, gathers a bucket of battery acid and tosses them in. Goes to instagram, tik tok, twitter, facebook, myspace, and any other media outlet facility; effectively shutting them down so people can’t use them to make content. For some this is the end of their livelyhood and income.

Now calls over his bronze dragonflight ally and proceeds 55 years into the past.

Goes to the nearest Kmart, Sears, Radioshack with a list of supplies and comes out with a cart.

Then proceeds to hand out cardstock posters, markers, crayons, stencils for posts.
Goes to the nearest hobby lobby and buys kodak cameras with film and passes one pair to every person.

Provides a map to the nearest Kodak drive up photo booth with a chart covering the costs to get photos developed and what sizes costs. Then gets a number of photo albums, scissors, glue sticks, glitter, a box of tTme, Sports Illustrated, and Better Homes and Gardens magazines. These are for people to cut out photos and put with the kodak pics into the photo albums or scrap books as others may call them.

When you want someone to see what you do or like, you have to pull these books out and show them. They have to drive over to visit and connect. Or pull out an LM Ericsson Dialog Dial phone, turning a wheel to the stop to dial for one number at a time. (Turn the wheel then wait for the click, click, click as the wheel resets itself then do the next number.)

For those who want to make video content, head to the nearest Radio shack or Circuit City and find a 1970’s Kodak Carousel 4600 projector, or a Bell & Howell 2592 16mm Filmo Sound Movie Projector and pulls down with a Evanesce B, 120", 16:9, MaxWhite Fiberglass fabric projection screen.

Sorry getting carried away here… my bad. Im just reminicing of the good old days up to when Myspace was first released, back when content was made through sweat, a huge bill, and enough paper cuts to have scars on your finger tips.

So you can write without plugging something into a GPT prompt.

I get what you’re doing with your longwinded strawman. You’re trying to frame my argument as being anti anything and everything that provides convenience or increases efficiency. But that argument is missing a very important distinction. Whether I write something on a word processor or a piece of paper, I’m still the one writing it. I’m not passing off work someone or something else produced as my own. Whether I produce a video with an old projector, a camcorder, or a smartphone, I’m the one doing the filming. When I plug a prompt into ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Claude, Perplexity, or whatever your poison, I’m not the one producing the content. To then pass it off as my own is dishonest, and it creates an inconsistency between the way I actually write and the way I “write.”

Let’s remind ourselves of something here. The point of RP and creative writing is to do it ourselves. If you’re not creating and improving, what are you doing? What do you get out of watching other people interact with your robot responses? If you generate artwork, are you okay with taking advantage of all the artists whose work is being used by these tools without their consent? It’s like people who cheat in video games. When you 360 noscope headshot everyone in the match and go 75 -1 on your K/D, you’re not good. You’re letting a tool play the game for you. How is that even fun? How can you feel proud of that?

I suppose at the end of the day, there are just a lot of people who don’t care though. And so I will continue to lament the state of human effort and motivation while choosing not to interact with those who would take part in practices like this.

The long and short of it: Can’t be bothered to read something nobody bothered to write.

10/10 post OP, was wondering if I was just too paranoid lately.

I’ve said this before, but my primary issue with people using LLMs to write their RP posts for them is you’re being disrespectful of my time. I’m paying for a subscription and taking the time to log into the game to write with YOU. I want YOUR writing, I want YOUR creativity.

The moment you use an LLM model to write for you, I’m not RPing with you anymore, I’m RPing with ChatGPT. At that point, why am I wasting my time? You’re just a vehicle for ChatGPT to write with me, so why not just cut out the middleman? I don’t need you, I can just open up ChatGPT and get the exact same result. You’ve placed yourself in the position of being an unnecessary middleman.

If you’re adamant on using an LLM to post for you, fine, go for it. I think the ethical thing to do, though, is put a disclaimer in your RP profile that you’re using an LLM. Let me make an informed decision if I want to interact with you.

I’m giving you my creativity and time, please don’t disrespect that by not giving me yours in return. I truly don’t believe this is a difficult or unreasonable request.

AI just simplifies the creative aspect of a persons goals. But it still requires user imput to get the desired outcome. Knowing the right words to ask, the right imput to create the desired outcome is still the work of the user.

Understanding the fundamentals of a sentence and the tone or image is key to the correct outcome. Its all command work and the system is the tool. What people use AI for is their own choice.

Some people aren’t writers and they use tools provided to create the image they themselves are not talented or gifted enough to create. Should they give credit where credit is due? That is up to the company that produces AI tools if they require it or not.

If a person uses AI to create imagery for themselves sure, if they use it to write a story sure, if they use it to promote their guild sure. That is their choice.

Should a person who uses a hearing aid to hear what you are saying because they are deaf or unable to hear because of a birth defect have to tell you they are using a special brand or product that helps them hear made by a specific company that cost them a certain price? Does anyone have time for that?

Should someone who doesn’t write well have to tell you they use AI to promote their character courtesy of a mod that they don’t even pay for? Lets start charging for Total RP or TRP3 then. You use a tool everyone else uses instead of making a mod yourself after all, yet you aren’t paying for that.

If you don’t like it, you can choose not to participate in it. But you can’t force others to accept your preference and demand power over them. Or make them feel guilty.

I roleplay with everyone and i don’t care how they choose to style, design, or shape their characters. If they want to be a self proclaimed god of azeroth that is fine. If they try to command me i just say no but thanks for playing. But i won’t punish them or demand they submit or quit or anything else.

I don’t have time to be a karen like others. This isnt religion or politics, its a game. You pay to play a game for adventure, not pay to roleplay that is a personal choice.

Equating a lack of skill in writing to an actual physical disability is a wild choice bro. Imma go ahead and state the obvious on that. It’s a false equivalence of the highest order, and it isn’t the argument you think it is. No decent human being would give any crap to someone using a hearing aid. But it’s entirely justifiable to give someone crap because they simply can’t be bothered to put forth the effort to improve as a writer and instead choose to lean on generative technology like it’s a human right. Also, no one should feel so entitled to write like a best-selling author that they feel generating their work is their right. The fact of the matter is – especially in the RP world – that not being god’s gift to prose is perfectly fine. Do your best, strive to improve, and ignore anyone who would dare to be so rude as to insult you for the effort.

You’re right about one thing. You and everyone else using AI to write their guild ads, short stories, and RP posts can do what you want. But just because you can doesn’t mean you’re exempt from judgment nor does it mean others can’t have their opinions on it or on you for using it.

Let’s not be disingenuous. Feeding prompts into LLMs is nowhere near the same thing as crafting narrative prose. I could put the most caveman description of something into an AI prompt and still have it spit out something that looks pretty nice (the obvious tells and overused techniques aside). Comparing using addons like TRP to generative AI is also apples and oranges. One is nothing more than a container that still needs to be entirely filled in by the writer and provides no actual content in and of itself while the other very much does provide that content.

Like I said before, I don’t see the point in skipping the writing aspect of participating in a writing hobby where the entire purpose is to craft stories and interactions yourself. Like Auhgag said, using an LLM makes you nothing but a middleman facilitating people RPing with robots. If they wanted that, they could just go straight to the LLM of their choice.

This is all to say that I don’t hate AI in every sense. I think it’s great to use as a tool to look things up the way one can with Google. But you ain’t ever gonna convince me that using it in a hobby centered around fostering and improving creative writing while telling fun stories with various other human beings of different skill levels and perspectives is justifiable. And to call us Karens for simply wanting to maintain the integrity of this hobby is…also a choice. I’d counter by just calling you lazy. :person_shrugging:

But hey, you do you. Have fun watching the bot RP for you with your guild. And if it doesn’t work out, maybe you can get together with the others using AI for their guild ads and amusingly wind up forming something that looks like the satire the OP intended but without the sarcasm.

Noone has to put effort into something they don’t care about as much as someone else does. You dislike AI in guilds, fine, find one that suits your needs. I’ll say this.

A simple post with a simple nice answer is:

“Hey great idea, love the thought of an AI like guild. I personally don’t like the pitch as I feel it was made using AI and in my opinion it lacks Integrity. Hope you find others that will enjoy the concept and good luck with your endeavors :slightly_smiling_face:.”

Why smear and spread hate or “crap” over something you dislike. That is just adding to the negative energy. “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all.” - Thumper from Bambi.

Calling someone lazy is harsh, the best response would be “someone who in my opinion should try more if you can. If you are unsure i can offer tips or ways to grow if you want to hear them. If not, I respect your choice.”

Beep Boop! Thank you for understanding our plight! You completely encompass the thought process behind our guild. AI is the perfect tool which will eliminate human error in a hobby previously dominated by robot-hating humans who attempt to gatekeep all pathways of art. With AI, humans will enjoy their hobbies and not be bound to hardships such as, thinking, advanced thinking, and turbo thinking. Now! Your hobbies can be thoughtless and an easier method to accumulate dopamine hits at a fraction of the time.

We Nimrods agree - Those who disagree and expect mutual effort in creative hobbies are indeed “Karens” who should find a new hobby such as knitting or staring at paint dry.

Be sure to pass a bill that confiscates all gnomish-egineered calculating devices from academies across azeroth. Teach them long formatted calculations using charts, chalk boards, long-winded equations and have them memorize their multiplication tables 1 thru 15.

(I think there were chalk boards in Kul tiras, and the Nightborne use enchanted quills.)

Place a ban on herbalism products to relieve thinking pains and restore energy when stamina is low. I got a big thinking pain from this and had to go see an alchemists for a set mix of elixers to relieve the pain and replace lost stamina.

I often reward my Blue Clockwork Rocket Bot I nicknamed skippy with a fresh oil change and a set of new cervos and gyros whenever he helps me with certain projects. The rest I leave up to a set of enchanted quills and tomes I last aquiried in Dalaran before it fell. Good thing I took pictures before it was destroyed with my S.E.L.F.I.E Camera MkII and store these images in a lattice crystal matrix for future recovery.

(Note to self - fix bug where quill records Dalaran as unknown name Alderaan.)

So you don’t care enough about this hobby to put forth any real effort, yet you decided to start a guild. Uh huh. I’d advise you to take your own advice and maybe find a hobby you do truly care about and that suit your needs. Hell, I’ll even throw out a genuine suggestion that leans into your adoration of AI. Why not use it as an RP practice partner to build your human proficiency with the written word so that you can then turn around and RP without the bot when interacting with other people? Or write short stories yourself and have the bot critique them so you can understand your weak spots and shore them up?

Because what you’re doing is dishonest, disrespectful of people’s time, and actively harms the integrity of this hobby and the trustworthiness of its community. Think about it. What happens if the vast majority adopt your perspective? Are we to become spectators watching bots do all the RP while we live vicariously through them and imagine how cool it would feel if we could have written what we’re seeing ourselves? That’s just freakin’ sad.

But I don’t respect your choice. And I’m sorry if some honest and deserved criticism makes you uncomfortable. Your comfort does not come before everything else. In fact, discomfort is often a necessary evil. It’s what motivates us to change, grow, improve, etc. Without it, we would all just stagnate in complacency thinking we have nothing left to learn or no other ways to grow and improve. And if you ever believe that, you’ve totally lost the picture.

I realize you’re taking this way more seriously than the situation actually calls for. At the end of the day, this is a game. You log in, you play, you have fun the way you desire it, and you log out.

People are here to relax, have fun, and engage with RP at whatever level fits their time and energy. They aren’t here to meet a rigid, one-size-fits-all standard of “effort” that you’ve decided is the only valid one.

Having high standards for yourself is totally fine. Expecting everyone else to meet them or else be labeled “dishonest” or “harmful to the community” is where it starts to cross into gatekeeping, aka Ego control.

Also, if we’re going to talk about what actually “harms” the community, it’s worth grounding that in reality. In Wow, the Tos doesn’t prohibit:

Using external tools to help with writing or creating RP ideas. If someone copies word for word, let them. This isn’t a competition for who is the best roleplayer. No rewards, no medals. No payout or cash prizes. Not every RP experience needs to be like a soap opera drama.

Running a guild with casual or low-commitment expectations. Not every guild needs to have some long winded application or desire for the perfect roleplaying experience. Some people want to play simple and easy, let them.

Writing short or simple RP responses instead of long-form prose. Roleplaying can be exhausting for some, and time wasting. Some players create full paragraphs, others use small sentences. Eaiser to say then it is to type for 5 minutes just for a 10 second read.

Playing your character in a way that prioritizes fun over literary quality. Again if you set the bar high, noone is going to put the effort to reach it just to be on the same level as you. That is their choice.

None of those violate the rules, and none of them inherently damage the game. People RP at different levels all the time. Some write paragraphs, some write a few lines, some draft loosely. That variety has always been part of the community.

If someone wants to use AI as a stepping stone, much like how writers use wikipedia to get the references used, to keep things casual, or just enjoy RP without treating it like a craft to master, that doesn’t mean they “don’t care.” It just means they’re engaging with the game differently than you are. Not every person is aspiring to be a perfect writer. Some are just here for fun.

But their definition of fun violates your definition.

There’s room for serious writers and casual players in the same space. Treating one as inherently inferior isn’t protecting the hobby.

Oh boy…now we’re going to accuse me of taking things too seriously.

This will be my last post since it’s clear you’re not even listening and are purposefully ignoring the points I’m making while choosing to strawman and misrepresent what I’m actually clearly stating.

Posting AI slop is not RPing. It’s watching something else RP. I almost wonder what your position would be on using a ghostwriter or just fully plagiarizing, but I don’t have any confidence that you’d answer in good faith.

There’s no gatekeeping going on here. I simply expect people to RP with me and not LLMs when I’m playing an MMORPG.

Do whatever you want broski. And may you reap whatever result from that “effort” you deserve.

-Edit-

Also, before you go on again about how the mean elitists targeted you with their injustice, judgment, ego, and gatekeeping by demanding you perform to the standard of someone who writes professionally (a thing I never said and actually said the opposite of in a previous response), remember that you came into this thread and decided to pick a fight with a bunch of people you already knew would disagree with you.

While we clearly see it differently, I’ll respect your preference and wish you the best in finding RP partners who match your style.

Meanwhile I support the endeavor of the OP idea and would love to see more guilds that use AI to simplify the roleplaying experience.

Ever notice how conversations in games like Dragon Age, Fallout 4, Elder Scrolls, etc use of AI. Where conversations are far more enjoyable than long winded conversations with hours of hard work for so little a reward. Having a guild that uses AI makes the experience more speedy and quick thinking.

Im sure many want a good run, and not something long winded experience like classic dragon ball where a fight takes several episodes.

I think having AI assisted mods can help with presetting multiple choices for answers or situations in advance. Players can then tweak, or retype them out altogether to create the exact desired outcome. Ive seen alot of DND AI use that works well.
