I personally have the kind of memory where, if it happened, I have a real hard time making it un-happen. When I clone from a SenseNet backup, I find I have to work really hard at figuring out what to forget and carefully internalizing those facts, to be sure the memories don't come out and affect future RP.
It's the reason I keep logs, actually.
Even this is hard because the effect of going back and reviewing the logs of the hours/days I lost actually have the tendency to reinforce the memories. I have to write a list:
Don't remember .
Don't remember
Don't remember .
....and then carefully review it. It slows my RP down and makes me feel uncertain as a player. And it takes up a lot of time which I'd rather spend RPing! ;)
Though, ICly I can just treat it as my character retreating to safety and holing up there.
So what tricks, tools, whatever, do other players use to really "forget" this stuff?
Thanks
