Just to let you know, I have been frequenting th ooc and IC, to prevent my ragin all over the place, I stopped myself from posting ANYTHING. Dig's character is all 'I'm a super-star', and PX is so hugely mean it makes me wonder how I actually kept reading.

I am done with this roleplay, this was....a catastrophe. And I'd rather not rant and go into details, bu yah, this was the worst roleplay I have ever seen, at least the one-liner people get along.

I'm gonna need another day or so to edit my post, I'm swamped with work.

StandardFiend, dig's second to last post created "squadrons" of Skelleknights out of thin air, which he then saved Twili's character from. He also ignored Skittles' character when she was standing right next to Twili's. To sum up, it was inconsistent with the four posts preceding it.

Winds... Yes. Yes I will. Despite what seems to be the popular opinion, we have made changes and accommodations for dig's character. However he continues to eat up screen time, preventing other players from doing much anything. I've reached the end of my tolerance for it and if I don't see a sign of him changing that, by editing his posts, then I'm done with this.

Oh go figure...*sigh* This is why i don't like using a completely different page for the actualy Roleplay and the OOC. If you would just use the Activity tab, people would have followed these ideas a lot more easily. That's just my opinion. But if someone wants to tale Michaline, be my guest. I don't have time for a roleplay of this complications.

Quick note to Twili:
I edited my post so Mordred does not fight with your character. Also, Dig's post is currently considered invalid since the scene we set up is being erased. You might want to hold off on responding until he gets his edit done.

Mako, what was wrong with Dig's previous post, if you don't mind my asking? I thought it was the current one we were concerned with.

Right.

It's after the limit I set. Skittle, however, has not shown her(?) face. Surprisingly, neither has dig.

By all accounts I should, stake, behead, burn, and scatter this RP at a crossroads.

However, I'm surprised by the interest in continuing that has been shown.

So, I'm going to set a new deadline.

10am PST, Monday, April 4th.

If, by this point, dig has not edited his last two posts so that they properly account for other peoples posts, I will kill the RP.

If he does, but Skittle has not been seen in either thread, then we will continue, but with Cami under the control of Protoman.

Hopefully, dig will edit his posts, and Skittle will reappear.

I will leave you all with this little nugget to chew on.

You can be a good writer. You can be a good Roleplayer. But being one does not make you the other.

Nobody's going to vote, it seems. I kind of figured that would happen, but oh well, at least you guys won't have to deal with the alternative I suggested in the discussion in which a vote was decided on, which was use this opportunity to revise the RP entirely. So yeah, that's something to think about.

I know reboots are never the popular thing to do, but what can I say? I was a bit frustrated with my own position in the IC (something I brought upon myself, mind you) as well as feeling terrible that Wind hasn't got to do any sort of IC stuff yet in the month or so the IC thread has been opened, which to me just seemed like a terrible thing to do to someone.

Okay, just to let you all know, I have been around, and been watching. However, I set my character up to get noticed, yet, she's pretty much ignored. I'll still post if this can be fixed, which i think because of Dig's whole ending scene with Mordred, I've set her up nicely. I'm sorry that i can't do such elaborate posts as some of you can, but i find it very tiring to see long winded 33 paragraph posts to say only a little, and on top of that, I'm in college. i have other priotities, Roleplaying being a very low one at that. RPG.com is just a hobby, and i don't have much time for it. if this is not okay with you guys, i will drop this rp, but other than that, i would like to continue.

I did not mean to try and counter your point, he did make mistakes, but insulting each other will get us nowhere. I just wanted people to know I don't blame dig for all of this, like my first post seemed to suggest.

I would like to say that despite the feeling of betrayal Imperial's post has left me with, I want to make it clear that I fully stand behind the statements made in my last post.

I haven't formally left yet, the main purpose of my post being to get everyones attention that if we didn't do something and resolve our differences then we would loose people. Your responses go to prove one of my points, that you guys argue a lot about this RP and accomplish little for both sides. From what I can gather, some of you have taken this a tad personally when there was no need to. The roleplay is far from unsavable, the problem is primarily here.

That being said, I'd like to clariffy what I said about dig. Dig is not a bad roleplayer, its a well written character and although he uses more details than necessary in my opinion, he still writes well. What I don't like is Eric as a power ranger, he has the heart but he just doesn't seem to have the proper mindset. Fighting the way he is would make more sense later in the story, when Mordred separates him from us and tries to torture him with memories of what he could not prevent. (hypothetical but cool idea) The only mistake dig made as a roleplayer is that he didn't pace himself, he had all these great idea he tried to get out now instead of saving them for when the story called for them.

I haven't given up yet, my faith has just been shaken a but. If you guys can just settle your differences, stop throwing insults around, and dig edit his last post I'll gladly continue playing.

One of the things I've always held true when I look at Roleplays is the idea that the GM(s) are the "computer"(albeit one that can be talked into things) and the players, are well, the players.

A GM creates a world, or a least a plot if it's not an original world, and then people say, "hey, that sounds like fun" and they join.

I personally wouldn't mind if this fight went on for pages. The main reason we wanted to end it was so that we could get to Wind's character, not because we were sick of anything. This is the only reason I didn't say, "Yes. Edit your posts, the fight continues". I was thinking of the other players, and personally wanted to get them away from Eric so he could chew the scenery on his own and let the others get some time to do something.

Protoman X, I think, got the nail on the head: People got impatient. That doesn't change the fact that the only person who got to do anything even remotely significant to Mordred was Eric. This does not change the fact that we changed the plot to accommodate for Eric's need to see if his family and friends were okay.

Yes, Twili and Skittle haven't been around. I seem to be the only person who is not annoyed by this. But let's face it. As far as we know, they feel the same way Imperial does but didn't bother to say so before they left.

Or Skittle forgot to pay her internet bill and she'll come back on the third of April and go "Oh fuck, the RP blew up. I was enjoying it too."

Now, going back a bit, the main reason I'm so patient with people in regards to posting is that I know that the more other people post between, say, my posts, the more time I have to eat. And when this happens in combat scenarios it pisses me off because it makes my character look retarded.

Example: In my mind, my last post created a distraction, drawing Mordred's attention to my character, creating an opening for Micky and Cami to attack him, jointly, from behind. I did not want to post again until this happened.

However, dig posted, pulled a number of minions out of thin air, ignored the existence of Cami entirely, "saved" Micky( when before his post there was nothing to save her FROM), and then pulled Mordred's attention back to himself, removing the chance for an attack from behind from anyone. Anyone except Athena. Athena, who was still on her feet and ready to strike or defend, didn't get to act because dig posted again, before I even saw Standard's post, and defeated Mordred.

All while bleeding rather badly.

This, as I stated before, is bad roleplaying. I don't care what reason or excuse you give. That's what it is.

I honestly don't blame Imperial for leaving, or Skittle and Twili if they left as well. We should have been stricter. Yes. I said stricter. We should have put a leash on Eric. Made him edit some of his posts and boot him from the game if he didn't. He selfishly prevented other characters from acting and took every opportunity to make himself look the hero, all while claiming that he was doing what was good for the RP and "trying not to write a Gary Stu".

Let me tell you something dig. You failed. Miserably.

If people are willing to come back, including you standard, I would be grateful.

If people are not, then I will happily, for the first time in my life, declare an RP FAILED and DEAD.

Winds, can you honestly say that you want to keep dealing with this over and over? This is not the end of it. This isn't the last straw. It's going to come up over and over, no matter who is playing. I've had enough of it. I had enough of it a long time ago, but I decided to stay against my better judgement in the hope that it might get better. It didn't.

You've already lost StandardFiend, so I don't think it actually matters.
