[quote=@Alfhedil] Or perhaps some people actually did have concerns about your nation, and rather than cause a scene in OOC, brought it up with Duck personally. To be fair, they would be well within their rights to, as I did have some concerns myself, but chose to keep them to myself and look to smoothing things over with history. [/quote] That is fine and dandy, but again, I can hardly correct my mistakes of I am not told of them. I am also someone who's been on this site since 2008 and I've been in pretty much the first NRPs on this site, so I can notice when people think someone is a powergaming douche. What I want to know is: 1: Am I so stained that I am no longer welcome. (A single person saying yes about this will get me to leave without looking back or arguing.) 2: Is this going to be one of those game where everyone is overly friendly with everyone in-game? Because what I am isn't a powergaming douche but someone that would like an epic tale even if that means an epic downfall (Especially so actually). I'm not here to win (Because if I can tell you something is that wanting to win in a NRP is so counter productive it's ridiculous). If you don't want war, betrayal, careful diplomacy and an all around bad guy outright trying to bully people because it has a stronger army then again tell me, because I'll find this a really boring game. Again, I don't want to insult anyone or their taste in roleplays, it's just that I don't really want to wait around to myself in something I don't want to be in and then quit, because then you'd lose a player mid game and I'd lose my time. I'm your nazi germany and I'll follow you to the gates of moscow to then have my last hopes crushed in a magnificent counter attack and so forth. Again, please don't think I'm a dick, because that's generally what people think when they read that, it's just how I like my games. If you don't and want to enjoy a quiet slice of life NRP, then begone I shall and I do hope we can shake hands and part ways in pleasant terms.
