"atmos" is apparently what people in the MUD world refer to as socials.

I spent a few minutes trying to find it in use and the only thing I could dig up was an old alt.horror.werewolves FAQ from Usenet where they also recommended playing FurryMUCK and talked about forming cyberpacks because they were actually werewolves. So there you go.

I forget how much raw unrelenting mental illness used to be on the net in the very beginning.

There's something low key annoying about that tendency goons have to use obscure terminology from ancient shit, like when they call MMORPG characters "toons" because of Toontown Online. That's gotta be a trait of autism.

I've been on internet gaming forums for ages and I've never once heard the term "atmos".

Not to um ackssally, but "Toon" for MMORPGs predated Toontown by a good number years. Toons separated the graphical ones from the MUDs.

Oh, it's far older than that. I don't even think a lot of people on the internet now were even born yet when "toon" started being a thing.

Well yeah, there was the film 'Who Framed Rodger Rabbit?' which they used the word 'Toon' a lot.

Now with that said, it's weird using dated slang from decades ago anyway.

Nope! Even they aren't that stupid, their money goes to e-slags and furry porn only.
Remember that one pixelshit game Anita reccomended. Literally 0 extra sales after a promotion on a (then) massive channel.
Remember Sunset?
Remember Tacoma?

There's tons more examples. Feels good to be a gamer 8)
