[quote=@MelonHead] No your not, you're biased and true objectivity doesn't exist. No it's not, you've just received more resistance because you've entered an established community that is normally welcome, thrown your 'RPing experience' in everyone's face in a condescending manner, and been way too free with your insults. (which is how you've managed to irritate me.) Ultimately, your point is invalidated by the fact that I spent most of yesterday arguing against the established rule-set and debating on Innue's side. LeeRoy has his own beliefs on the system, he isn't any-more representative of the community than anyone else. Short story short, your own behaviour is responsible for the reception you've received from Arena, as is true of everyone, and despite the arguments spurred up constantly I've seen two or three new people express interest in what is by all accounts a very niche part of RPing. So. How's that? Also, vote Rilla 2k15.[/quote] The funny thing here is I've just kinda watched all this play out and while I've been in and out of the Arena a lot, there did seem to be more arguing/fighting then actual debate and willingness to accept outside opinions. I see some of your statements as accurate, and your irritation is warranted I'm sure, but responding out of irritation, at least in my experience (which is no better than anyone else's, before you try and jump on my case misguidedly) is not the best idea if you want any sort of constructive conversation that's helpful or useful to anyone. I don't agree with the use of Insular as what amounts to an insult, but some of Tuuj's points do kind of have some merit. Not all, but some. And I am not the guy who tends to agree with the words of Tuuj.
