What about Arkansas, isn't that where people marry their cousins?

I thought that was Shelbyville.

(Huh, who'd have known... looks like there is a Shelbyville in Arkansas...)

Arkansas is one of the few (16 out of 50 iirc) states where it is illegal to marry cousins. They have a flat out "no" policy while some states have varying statutes dealing with it.

For the most part, cousin marriage is an inapplicable stereotype for the south, but there are some areas where you can at least marry your sister...if John law don't find out.

Be well

rant: weekends being alternately too frikkin hot to work on an aluminum barn roof without frying, or too rainy and stormy to work on aforementioned aluminum barn roof without getting zapped or slippery. :)

I'm kinda shocked actually. Makes me want to play even less. I'm getting closer and closer to taking a break... (not with unsubbing as I can't do that)

Okay so last night I tried ERB for the first time, and may or may not have pulled a naughty by playing Cantr high as... :shock: ...well, really high anyway.
Anyway, according to my boyfriend, ERB is this legal substitute for weed and it doesn't show up on drug tests. Also according to limited google searches while chiefing.
Question: Is it alright to play Cantr while high/drunk? I tried to stay off of my pre-established characters because I didn't want to mess up their roleplay too badly. but one of my new characters who wasn't inspiring me got a bit of a tourettes makeover. Obviously can't post the gory details yet 'cause of the 4-day rule, but I was thinking--
Maybe that CAN be in character? I've certainly seen weirder.
Anyway, is it alright to CUI (Cantr-Under-the-Influence)?
Opinions?

I've done it before, and... in some cases, regretted it, but I don't see anything wrong with that as long as you accept responsibility for the potential outcome.

Not to mention that it will not be a viable excuse should any rules be broken.


So, no, nothing preventing you from doing so, but as Joo stated, you will need to accept whatever happens should you choose to do it, as there is no "restart" feature for characters.


Well...there is amnesia...but eh.

As a responsible adult, I'd advise you not to take the drugs. They can do you harm. (I've teenagers and worry)

I took a perscribed drug and reacted badly to it. I was high and played cantr and regreted it later, but was unable to stop at the time. Only Yugo noticed or said anything. My chars were more uninhibited then usual and I had to un-stick a few of them later. One had a really good time, but three didn't work out too well.

I have played afer a few drinks and had to apologise to another character both times. Not as bad as the drug, but embarrassing all the same. I'd say it's not wise and there are always consequences.
