Honestly, that’s a great sentiment, and part of why I wanted to do this without any skill restrictions!
Gonna drop my in-game username through a private message, add me whenever you feel like it!

Oh, right the Alliance mechanic! I completely forgot that was a thing!
Sure, could be at least interesting to try! I swear, I have almost spent enough time in Warframe for it to be considered a second job, yet I still haven’t tried everything there is to try…
Hello and welcome to the community!:D
To put it hyperbolically, Anarchist Utopia!=)) At least that’s my rose tinted vision for it, anyway:))
I essentially want everyone to have the same level of control over it, the same level of ownership, and contribute as much or as little as they would like, as long as mutual respect and consideration are maintained throughout one’s stay. LGBTQIA+ friendly, safe space, freedom of speech and expression are paramount as long as said expression isn’t destructive and/or harmful in any way, no barrier of entry in terms of levels of game experience, no leader, per-se, with everything being determined via communication and consensus, etc. Talk sh*t, get kick’d, but no witch hunts, no mob justice - discussion and consensus throughout. And if some “roles” arise organically from the whole thing, then so be it!
Social participation is up to each and every member - you’re more than welcome if you just want that feeling of belonging without necessarily participating all the time (and need a place to store your Railjack), or if you’re looking to organise grind parties, to help out the newbies, or prep for Sorties and such.
In terms of material participation, as I’ve said, I have unlocked the most relevant bits of Research, like the 100-packs of Restore Kits (all 4 of them, what is a social life, haha), all Labs are built, Dojo is structured in such a way as to allow for logical expansion and already has a lotta room for going nuts with a paint brush, so there’s… really not all that much of a pressure to contribute anything in terms of progression… Mostly all that’s left to unlock is weaponry and Dojo paints, but there’s already so much stuff available, that I can’t see there being any rush for more…
If this sounds good to you, drop me a private message and I’ll add you in-game!
Hey, good to know there are other such initiatives out there, gives me hope! ❤️
And thank you for your insights, I’m really not all that familiar with how “things are done” around here in terms of Clan dynamics and such. Only ever had two, both made by myself, one with a couple of close friends, and this latest endeavor which was mostly a work of boredom, to be honest.
I’ve really been mulling this aspect of limitations around since yesterday and somehow I can’t gel role limits with the vision I had for this idea. I’d very much like to try going for a communal structure, let everyone be 100% equal (minus the odd man out who’ll guard the nuke, so to speak), and try to function based on consensus and empathy. I’m aware this opens it up to the potential of it all blowing up in my face, which is why I (and, hopefully, eventually we) will have to be a bit selective and mindful of newcomers, but I really don’t want it to feel oppressive, just cautious.
In the end, everything which is there will remain there, including any Platinum, research, or anything else. If someone deletes a room, the only thing lost would be the time needed to grind for resources. To be perfectly honest, I think I have enough stuff to rebuild half of the Dojo at this point, so I’m not too worried about that.
This is why I’d very much want to at least gather a core of like-minded people, as you’ve said, and handle the rest together. I don’t even think game experience would be a factor in this case.
I want people to have that feeling of walking into a busy Relay and seeing that crowd going about their day, with the added benefit of said space being theirs. I want people to have creative freedom to restructure the place, to decorate it, to make it theirs. I want this to be as participative as desired, but every major change would be discussed in public and approved via popular vote and based on needs (i.e. no deleting the Dry Dock if other people are grinding the content, but the request to do so will still be discussed and considered for a later date, etc.).
And, most importantly, I want people to feel safe there, to know that at least nobody’ll bother them. Introverts 100% welcome! Don’t know if this makes sense, maybe I need to refine the vision a bit first:))
Either way, thank you so much for your message, it really did put a lot of things into perspective!
Just hit me, maybe a trial period in one of the more restricted authority levels, just to make sure initial impressions are at least maintained. Or maybe that’s too restrictive, I dunno… Would really like to believe this will become a friendly space without the need for safeguards or restrictions, but… people…
And to add, I’m going for this communal consensus type of structure because I’m really not that big on leadership stuff, nor am I big on too much socialising. If this thing were to go down, I’d want to be just one of the faces in the crowd, part of the consensus mechanism. Will help when and where, but other than keeping the Founding Warlord title to make sure nothing catastrophic can ever happen to the Clan, like… I just grind here:))
Oooh, the hot room could explain it, yes! Maybe even the first tinged with a bit of the second, blood was boiling after all.
And, yes, the poses are very… specific, dunno how else to put it, they’re the kind of almost fetishistic fixations with small and specific details, like seeing someone’s skin in intermittent shadow, feeling a certain type of fabric on one’s cheek, gives the impression that we’re also getting something intimate from the artist! These poses caught the eye in a very personal way, I feel! Or maybe I’m just projecting:))
Thank you so much for replying, you’ve just expanded the painting’s context immensely! Love it even more now!
I swear I can’t tell if this is fatigue or ecstasy. I’m not trying to start anything here or to be snarky, I genuinely see both.
And a whooole lotta suck for the rest of humanity!
“A very attractive piece of paper.”
This’ll also extend far beyond American borders. We’re all in for some… interesting times…
Grifters, rejoice!
Additionally, check out the previous revolutions from around the world! Most of them didn’t happen on a basis of theory, but of people determined to change their condition.
Take Romania, for example. Sure, that’s an example of a revolution which ended up replacing one disaster with another, but even that holds a lesson for us: word-of-mouth is king, don’t give into desperation when figuring out the next attempt.
… revolution. That is the idea. We are talking about two completely different things, you expect run-down people to think logically and clearly about something as complex as an alternative*(edit) societal system while actively existing in some of the worst social contexts we’ve seen in decades, while we are talking about acting in such a manner as to free up the cognitive bandwidth necessary to determine what you demand.
It’s like any other toxic relationship, you can’t begin to heal until you’ve exited said relationship.
To clarify, by any means necessary. Start demanding, start opposing, start rallying. Spread the word, keep the reality of things alive in people’s awareness, because the natural instinct is to retreat and deny in order to protect oneself, but that’s exactly the trap the Right sets and then springs for a massive boost in support from downtrodden, desperate people.
Edit to add: the Right and Capitalism, because they both infiltrate and exist by solving problems they themselves create, thus garnering support through necessity.
Revolutionary action is 100% actionable. Always and forever.
That smoochable face holds the kind of happiness only attainable by overthrowing a corrupt society❤️
While I disagree with the wording, I share the sentiment.
American siblings, come to Yurp! Seriously! We like people over here!
Exactly, it’s like playing a video game. And no matter how immersive the game, reality always demands its cut.
Welcome to The Problem!
I believe our societal models are the reason. It’s not just that all people are self-absorbed and greedy, it’s that everything we have built for ourselves pushes us toward being just that, from start to finish.
We have slowly snubbed out true values, like a sense of justice (by this I mean fairness mostly, true Justice, not Electric Chair Jamboree), empathy, collaboration, soulfulness, all of the noble qualities of humanity, and have slowly replaced them with therapy shopping and a fixation with achievement in order to cover up that which is missing from within ourselves.
Then again, some are just… empty. Devoid of personal meaning, which is why they want to empty everyone around them in order to not be alone with that hole in their souls.
NOBODY SAY ANYTHING!!! At this rate, all we’ll have to do is wait them out!
