[quote=JonxlatheLion] This character sheet has been deleted. Reason: Deemed 'against the ethics of the roleplay' by the new people. [/quote] I'mma have to disagree. No one ever used those terms. The discussion came about because people felt Ghost Rider was not only a poor choice for what is a group-based roleplay, given his personality as a lone spirit of vengeance and that his penance stare would be useless against bosses (the only enemies you'd have reason to use it against), but also that he would be wildly mis-represented, leading to a character that would have been Ghost Rider only because it had the name and shared the powers, and those things do not a character make. It developed because, in all honesty, you failed to provide reasonable counterpoints to the arguments presented against you. Not only did you choose to take criticism as a conspiracy against you, you relied entirely on the premise of allowing a fusion of personality between character, which I have to say just defeats the point of bringing in the actual character anyway, might as well just make Joe Schmoe what got Ghost Rider's powerset on the transition. You also appealed to your own supposed seniority over other players in this roleplay as if that had anything to do with the discussion at hand, only to then threaten to quit the roleplay in a huff while saying it's "high time it died in your eyes", completely undermining any possiblepoint your previous tenure in the roleplay might've had. Was the character against the rules? Not really, not like anyone ever argued this anyway. Does that mean the character was a-okay? In my eyes and those of the people arguing against you, not really, because it wasn't actually Ghost Rider. On a personal note, this is why I choose to not play canon characters, because I know I won't get them just right and I'd rather not bastardize something I like. While resorting to personal attacks might have been uncalled for, your absolute refusal to accept that this might not have been the best idea didn't exactly endear you to others, and the little quip about original characters was mean, but I support roleplayers making their own characters even if they're obvious ripoffs/tributes/clones over taking someone else's work and messing it up.
