Mancery/Hidden Art

[Brandon Rhea]

I agree with Boli. Maybe another staff member can come up with a reason for this thread.

You're telling me what makes a great admin after this thread? This is hilarious.

More please.[/b]

It's not my fault you say one thing on MSN, then another on the site, then go and reverse your standing again. *cough* Kalin Morne *cough* If you want to drag this all out into the open, then that's cool, but don't think you're going to get me to back down. I become staff, and vote in idle admin threads and get the ball rolling, and you have the nerve to chastise me.

 

[Brandon Rhea]

Now you're being full of yourself. I'm done here.

 

[Green Ranger]

What the hell did I just say? Take it elsewhere.

I seem to remember Darman making ice in a fight I had with him once, but that was never picked up on. Ice is no different than fire.

Was it reported?

 

[Green Ranger]

Who the hell can honestly say they've reported anything? Why? Because we roll with the punches. I know from LA I learnt to do that quickly, and while I wasn't very good at it to begin with, it's a trait most if not all of my characters have had in common throughout my RPing history.

 

[Dexington]

No, because I didn't give two shits. Nobody cares about Mancery other than you and apparently a few other staff members, who don't even RP anymore.

Bac, Dakar and Darman might have agreed, I don't know, but no other staff member actively participates in the RP to have it affect them. You want a consensus? Ask the members if this should be allowed. There has clearly been lots of interest from the members of this site, so by taking this away from Boli and from them, you are lessening the experience on the site for those who were looking forward to it.

 

[Green Ranger]

Thanks, Dex, for actually going about this in a level-headed manner.

If you don't report anything, then I am sorry to say that you cannot go and say "but this person did this" and "this person did that" when you get told "No, Billy, you can't do that"




And I'd like to say thanks for degrading a very formal thread that had the words "regret" and implications of sorriness, into a free-for-all "let's yell at Kurt because he's mean and is taking away our fun!"

If you don't agree with what happened, voice your opinions in polite way, please.

Bac, Dakar and Darman might have agreed[/b]

For the record, I entered a vote of no opinion.

 

[Green Ranger]

It's a preferential way to RP. I don't report shit because I don't give a rat's ass whether they use it, because I know what my stuff is like, and I know how to cope with the changing situation anyway. Reproting that someone did something wrong detracts from the RP and narrative experience, and if anything, I prefer to PM and discuss it with the member, rather than getting the staff involved.

Why do you think any site has a staff? There needs to be people who have a slight bit of control who apply rules, kind of like a government. And I didn't make the discussion thread about it, so don't throw all that weight on my shoulders. I just voiced my own opinion, and people agreed.

If other staff come and see this, and decide that we should do a general poll for members about it, then fine. I'm just going with the vote that was made by us admins.

 

[Dexington]

Staff are here to enforce rules and create the rules, not to outcast an entire group.

I look forward to hearing some other opinions and I hope for a poll.

 

[Sir Dakar]

holy crap you guys.

I'm the one that brought up Mancenry in the admin section, because I believed that creating fire, and what happened in the duel between Khavaal and Michael V. (totally would have used your chars name but I dont remember the spelling :p) THAT is why I brought it up. My reasoning for this is that things can not be created using the force, you can not make fire, you can not make ice. That is why there is no Force Fire power, becasue it is impossible.

PS. "Nothing is impossible with the Force." - Kreia[/b]

I think that Yoda is far more powerful and wiser in the force the Kreia, and not even he could make something.

I completely regret that it was presented to you in this way Boli, as all I wanted was for some of your skills to change, and for you to ensure that the after sickness was stronger in description and action and that it was regulated, not completely shut down the entire faction. We have conversed via PMs about your faction, with me requesting skill lists etc, as All I wanted was to make it all a little more... legit.

Now it's an entire group? :confused: Two seconds ago it was singling out Boli...

 

[Green Ranger]

I'm in the process of creating a group, so either are valid, as by singling me out, you prevent the creation of my group from happening, thus outcasting that group by killing their faction before it gets off the ground.

EDIT: Daks, I know that, as you PMed me on it, but I do have a lot on my plate, getting on to RP is hard enough as is without writing up a whole new list of Art powers.

Though I do beleive creating fire with the Force is possible, with the right way of writing it up. It'd probably be fairly hard and not that beneficial, though, save maybe for survival situations.

 

[Dexington]

You know full well it was going to be an entire group, so don't pull that. It was Boli, right now, for the future it was an entire group.

You can revise the powers and still make the group... It's only dead if you want it to be.

Show me where he ever tried making fire.

Glad to hear that.
