Availability thread

[napsii]

Let's not derail this thread again. If you guys want to banter, take it to PM's, please.

EDIT: I've laid down very basic rules in the OP for posting in the Status Thread with the intention of stopping any further derails/relegating any discussion to the appropriate medium.

[MiscChaos]

OK, one of my coworkers needs to leave to care for his family starting Wednesday. This means I need to take up more hours to fill in the void he leaves, something I'm more than happy to do seeing as family comes first always. But this means that I've got even less time on my hands to do things like homework at home, so I'll have to do it during work. As I've said a few times, most of my posts on here are done at work. So...

tl;dr- I'll be on here a bit less until we hire on a new person.

[MiscChaos]

OK,I know I'm double posting, but it has to be done. I've been helping my stepdad move, so that's why there wasn't a post yesterday and why a post today will come at like midnight or around 10AM tomorrow.

[Thaedael]

That time where you want to rp but everyone whines you will be in the same RP as them. Taking a break for a little while. Will spend that time making own thread.

[Suraru]

Sooooo, today is another birthday, and to drown my sorrows and have fun, at some time after 10, I am going to be wasted off my ass. Not only will I be wasted off my ass, but I will have access to a computer, so in about 8 hours can I ask a mod to temp ban me so I don't do anything stupid and get myself actually banned?

[Thaedael]

That time of night where you have a giant arching story, and you want to try it on LoK, but you know it will fall apart in a few days. I really have no motivation right now lol, might just take a break from the RP section for a while.

[SugarCookie]

Not that anyone cares, but I'm back. Sorry Suraru, I couldn't find any time to use the library during my long and boring break, while I was marooned in my house by three parents too busy fighting each other to actually care. I had more important things to do like buy groceries, care for my younger siblings, and try to carefully throw in my two cents in arguments I had no part of anyways... Just kidding, it was actually kinda boring and I didn't have a car.

[MiscChaos]

Welcome back, Suga!

[Suraru]

See! There you go again with your crazy sense of humor!

If you needed a ride anywhere you could always just ask me btw, I courier people around all the time, you wouldn't be alone... in my car... nak- never mind. Welcome back.

[Zender_Solarheart]

Long time no see, Suga. Welcome back!

[daxtinator396]

PSH Suraru making it all weird well anyway heads up in advance for next is my spring break and I may or may not disappear on a road trip with my buds. I'm kinda hoping I do. If I have to stay at home for a week I'll scream x.x

[Grape Me]

I'll scream x.x

Sounds intense, let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Thursday Imma head off to a music fes and will be working until next Saturday out of the country. My posting activity will probably go down but I'll be able to check up on the site every once and awhile, try to get something in here and there. Once I get back my activity should go back up and I'll be able to post more often on the site.

[berserkerhorn]

why do i get the feeling suraru, dax, and sugar know each other in real life??
oh wait... suraru's the taxi driver
BTw life's going crazy for me so i'll be on and off

[Thaedael]

Okies zerkie, if you need to sate any rp cravings in a non-waiting setting you has my skype =P

[Thaedael]

One of those nights where I have a hard time getting into character, and can't visualize a scene or the characters in it -.-. Going to be out most of the day tomorrow I think so for all the RPs I am in or planning to be in, feel free to start without me.

[napsii]

Again, enough with the off-topic spam.

I am going to start deleting any and all off-topic posts so that they do not promote more banter. Again, take it to PM's, etc.

The rules exist in order to provide some structure and avoid the thread being derailed, so please respect them.

[shinox23]

Alright, 2 weeks is enough time of being away, gonna make a post either before I go to sleep, or later today, one way or another, I'm back and I'm gonna start things up again, so get your posts in now, else be left in times forgotten

[Suraru]

I had a feeling it was you. Well that's the last straw, I'm out of here. Not only did you delete my post without contacting me like I asked, but you've just been a giant pain in my ass since you've became a moderator. You've successfully removed the fun aspect that I come to this forum for. That post and others were on topic, it was about the status, and if he, or anyone else in the area, needed help.

And yes, you can argue that isn't on topic, but you only acted as soon as I posted, even when other people were also posting by your definition "off topic" which pisses me off. So instead of fighting it, I'm just going to disappear for a while. I'm not going to deal with your shit, and I'll give you a break from dealing with mine. Everyone else, you can go ahead and kill off my characters, I'll be gone a while, probably longer than any RP will live.

Do not delete this post, don't edit it, and don't even try to contact me. This is my status post that I am leaving, therefor it is on topic. Deleting it because I called you out isn't right, don't be a power happy moron just because I defied you. I'm already leaving, let me have unedited final words. I'm calling you out, no one else, and letting everyone else why I'm leaving. If anyone really wants to contact me, you have my Skype which I'm never on, or my Tumblr, but don't expect me to read any PMs or posts on here for a while.

If you don't know those two, ask around because quite a few members do. I'm not going to stay in a forum with bad moderators, I've had enough experience to know that if they won't leave, then you should, because if you keep fighting it they'll just ban you, and if you don't fight it then coming to the forum just becomes a negative experience with little chance of anything positive coming out of it, so there is no point in staying here.

I'll come back in a year or three to see if you pulled the stick out your ass, stopped being so anal, and stopped being selective and biased with your moderating actions. Bye o/

[Thaedael]

Eh, I get you have problems and all, but I would have talked to her in a pm directly other than calling her out like that in such a rude way. I am sure she has not only given warnings off int he past for ignoring rules, but you have also been warned by me in the past, and it got to the point where I gave up cleaning/editing/deleting posts and just all together allowing you to do what you do. She is new, and trying to make the place a little better, and is for the most part more reasonable than I was. If you have a problem I really do suggest sitting down and talking with her to see what is up. My only complaint with how she handled the situation was that she did not make a post afterwards, or a pm, but other than that, knowing your tendency to post not only wildly off-topic, but sometimes to the point of LOL FOR THE SAKE OF LOL, I want to side with her. That being said I didn't see the post, and since I am not a moderator this is not my jurisdiction to mediate, so in the benefit of the doubt as a member who for the majoirty of his stay has been a mostly positive impact I will tel you to either talk to Zeus/Misc, or go to the big boss man yourself so that your complaints are formally listened to, and in a way where you aren't pulbically telling a mod to, quotoe, "Pull a stick ot [her] ass, stopped being so anal, etc."

[napsii]

I gave you several warnings and many chances to cease your rulebreaking behavior, but did you not. If that is how you see things, so be it, but I had no personal problem with you. Anything I have done so far was part of an effort to improve the RP subsection and LOK in general. Spam and off-topic rants are not something that we can condone.

If you had an issue, then it would have been more mature to contact me in private so things could be worked out, but I suppose it's too late for that.

As an aside, because I don't want this to degenerate into a debate thread, I would advise that nobody else reply to this particular subject.
