hey quakers are not like amish or mormons they are modern people with their very own youtube channel containing such informative videos as "what is a quaker?" "what can i expect at a quaker meeting for worship?" and "#justquakerproblems"
i mean i told a story in this game about how my mom was wanting to buy a house and it was stressing me out because i wasnt sure she was ready for it, etc
it was actually me i was talking about
but then like the whole aria thing where she was super personal? that might be stuff that shouldn't be public idk
i know i also got yelled at for wanting to peek @ PMs between xof/bbm during PSV to see what was happening w/ that drama
i mean, was aria talking to juno or mags about her depression a bad thing? i don't think so, hiplop. they asked "are you ok?" and she opened up to them and they all had a good, cathartic, not really IDing experience together. why does that not have a place in survivor games?
I would be perfectly fine about a ban on personal talk, actually that would probably make me a comparatively better player since I try to avoid doing that kind of stuff anyway.
On that note, I'd be fine with people looking at my PMs, and I kind of doubt that anyone would mind sharing their PMs to me. I'm pretty much always out of the loop, but it could at least be a place to start.
EDIT: Though I think I may have horrifically failed at not being personal about how stressed each game made me. I still don't care though, because I assume every PM I send could be copied and sent to someone else.
Never be sorry for your little time.
It's not when you get there, it's always the climb.

Yes, that's exactly the main thing. It can make PMs be missed and out of order if someone else is opening them. And you wouldn't know that that is happening. That was more of my issue than I was bothered by someone else reading my PMs.
Xalxe: this is xofelf sometimes we call each other names and other times we share emotions
MattyP: Ur an enigma tho when it comes to circadian rhythm and the traditions we hold dear when it comes to the sun and the moon Get to reknow a xofelf here
Discord is faster than PMs or sitechat: xofelf#1697
Look at it this way: if someone shares something personal with me as an anonymous player in a game, I feel totally within my rights to turn around and tell whoever I want about it if that'll gain me an in-game advantage.

This is precisely my stance on this.
Survivor is, and has always been, a social game. This isn't chess, and I think it's a big mistake to limit what discussion can be had.

Sure. No argument from me.

If personal talk was disallowed or even curtailed I probably would never play again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sure.
In some cases I think there's a semi-spoken "we're not going to share this with anyone else during the game or ever" thing that develops between people who are both looking for that. I don't think breaching it would be in violation of any rules or punishable, obviously, but I'd definitely have hard feelings about it. Have yet to misjudge anyone that severely, self-disclosure has a way of becoming a two way street or not happening at all. I feel comfortable with that risk, but others might not.
