I was actually really insulted when Sep said we needed to just get this shit resolved so we could get back to the "actual story", and it made me question if he even knew what the word meant. All of the drama surrounding this player-driven story-arc is exactly the reason why I've been avoiding this site, this group, in the last couple days and throwing myself into my studies.

When someone says they're just going to do whatever the fuck they please and fuck anyone who says otherwise, then that's it. The game is over. There's no point in collaborating with that person, and that person happens to be this games fucking GM.[/quote]

There is no point to bring this up again. I like the idea that players drive their own stories, I never once said that "We need to drop this and get on to the actual story." Everyone there can confirm it. If you aren't happy with me, so be it but you need not bring it into the OOC. 

I was doing what I was doing, as after speaking with different people I was going to put things in the direction that they seemed to want, I even spoke to [@Peaceless] after the discussion to clear things up. I said my apologies for this miscommunication, and said that the matter need not be discussed simply because it didn't really need to be raised again. Then once again you raise it again calling me out in my own OOC. I want this world to thrive, I want you all to have fun and help develop this world into more than the simple building blocks I have given you.

I want you to explore stories I never even thought off, I want you to do all these things. Explore your characters, find out how they interact with one another. [i]Never[/i] call me out on that again, as that is what I want to do. I am not doing this for [i]my[/i] story. I don't have an overarching plan for the tales of Admiral William Locke or Doctor Loretta Raidne. Everything [i]they[/i] do is to give the players, and my co-gms things to do. Even ask [@Rawk] and [@Heat] two co-gms. I have not informed them off story points at their request so they can enjoy it the same as the rest of you.

I want you to all do things, I want you to have fun. There was miscommunication, I stepped in as requested. I stepped out as soon as it appeared I was biased in the situation, and I discovered that I had misread what I was told. If you think that I am doing a poor job as Gamemaster, if you want ask the other players and if they agree I will happily step down for you to take over.
