Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Hmm... I think I will take advantage of free play week and play a bit of FFXI, at least to try to beat Rhapsodies storyline.

I don't think I've ever been more disappointed in ffxiah before

Keep doing whatever makes your job the easiest and whatever you think is the well being of the site with or without staying to principle, I guess

cheers? I dunno, please report me or something

god damn man. that was brutal and the feels ._.

Look, I know I'm opening old wounds. And I'm going to go ahead and apologize to Rooks, Kojo, Ack, and whatever happened to the body of Chaos.

But god damn it. Let's not bring the ***from yesterday into today.

I took my 7 day punishment. I told Ack last night that I understood why I got that 7 day ban, I accepted it, and I moved on. I also told Ack that it looked like I had posting privileges still, he told me that there was an error with the website, and I told him that I wouldn't abuse it, and left it at that.

I PM'd a couple of people, letting them know about my disappearance and told them I would see them in a week. After I left, I remembered that I needed to tell Rooks about an error that I found, so I did that this morning. That's when Rooks and I talked about it (Kojo talked to me about it later also) and my punishment was reversed.

Spicy, I know you (or Carrot) will read this, this is basically what I wanted to say: Your attitude towards the Admin/Mods here is what got you banned, not our little fight yesterday. If you just let things go last night, we all would be talking to each other now, everything would have been back to normal (as much as that can be), and we would have learned our lesson on that. We now know about the "3 strikes and you are out" rule that was made yesterday. We know that they are taking RP&R a lot more seriously now, now that Rooks is involved, but remember, this website is being run by unpaid staff who have other ***to deal with. We cannot expect them to babysit us children all the time, we have to take off our diapers and learn to grow the *** up!

What I did yesterday, in hindsight, should have gotten me section banned from P&R. I would have hated that if it did happen, but I also would have accepted that. Because I was a ***yesterday. I really would have expected more than you and I banned though, and that would have been where my fight with the mods/Rooks would have taken me then. When Ack told me about the 7 day suspension, I counted myself lucky, because I knew I would have a chance to enjoy this website later on, instead of losing one of my sources of frustration release about today's political climate.

But what you did went beyond that. You seriously had to walk up to the mods, kick them in the nuts, and then stand there expecting not to get punished. What's worse, Carrot is now in danger of going down with you. And her crime is just being associated with you.

Just, please, let it go. It's not worth the fighting anymore.

Again, I'm sorry for bringing up this ***again. I hope that this is the last time, the last post about this. I know there will probably be a page or two more of this before it actually dies down, but by the looks of it, somebody is already starting to rekindle the fire. Might as well try to take care of it before it becomes another blaze like yesterday.

i think everyone who posts in p&r more than 5 times a day should have to hook up with each other. the sexual tension is tearing that group apart.

I was this close with my fire at Fort McMurray.

I knew you were somewhere in the vicinity (given you are Canadian and all), but next time, I'll aim better!

woo log in on Bismarck and I have 3mil! sorich

I can't even voice my displeasement in a single post without a 3 page essay being written about it? I didn't even say what it was about but thanks for reiterating it for everyone

I want to be banned but apparently it only works if a select few who ask for it

By all means Spicy might reap what he sow, but the person who went full drama queen was another. And still around.

Carrot's protest is quite understandable.

Pretty sure in most countries, you get the guillotine for that.

should of logged into biz markie. you would of been more rich, cause you'd be rich with the soul.

Sorry, I'll try to make my essays 2 pages or less next time.

As someone who has also been heavily involved in moderation/administration based drama, I can say that approaching things from a logical angle with as little insults as possible generally gets better results than running around with your arms flailing raging and being melodramatic about it all over the place.

That's all I really have to say about it.

Without the trigger, it wouldn't have happened. Yesterday was honestly the worst day it could have happened

And it was honestly ridiculous the way it escalated, all ways around

Make it 1 page CV and you're hired.

Also, if you want to be banned, and the mods/admin won't ban you...


I'm pretty sure there's an app for that.

this is dull. it seems like carrot likes posting here on most days, i dunno why she'd want to get banned. i get solidarity with your relationship person, but whatever shade you throw at mods or admins in this situation, you can't expect a different outcome when you beg for it.

honestly, with all the grandstanding last night it felt like spicy wanted to be banned cause it let him be a martyr and it showed how tyrannical the mods are. he could of walked away at anytime, but he didn't. excuses can be made, "he was drunk and it was a bad day.". who gives a ***? he's an adult.

but... the patriarchy

I know I have been hard on Ack in the past. That's changed though, since Rooks, Kojo, and Ack all talk to me about the ***I pull here.

That's something a whole lot different from the Aelius days and before.

That's mainly why I accept my punishments when it happens, and also why I moderate myself a whole lot more than before. I have the utmost respect for the moderation/administration staff here because they are actually taking the time to talk to me about what a little piece of ***I am.

Before, I would just get a PM telling me that I'm suspended for a week/month, and nothing else. Then some mods (Aelius mainly) would publicly laugh and/or post my punishments publicly or even create threads about it. Which made the problem worse!

Now, with Rooks at the helm, it seems to be a whole lot more civil, and because of that, I'm not a little ***as I once was (well, in my opinion).

I don't get why people ***on Ack so much. It's not like the old days where mods would do whatever the *** they want, everyone talks to each other now, even if you don't see it. Punishments are not given lightly anymore.
