[quote=VitaVitaAR]It's not that you're asking questions, it's that you want to contradict my answers.[/quote]

Pardon me for speaking up against this, but that simply isn't true. Not once have I expressed anything but a desire to fit in and get along. When your rude and incredibly condescending GM not only rejected my app, but implied that I didn't read the thread and that I wrote a "lunatic," I ignored the obvious insults and waited for the hard judgments on where I could rewrite the app to improve it. Whether they came from her or from you. When you gave me those critiques, I only asked for a bit of codification so I could redraft what needed redrafting without having to start over from scratch. I started [i]asking permission[/i], like I was specifically told to, and passing ideas by you instead of assuming they were greenlit, but trying to wring some actual lore out of this thread (you know, so I'm not [i]breaking the lore[/i], all three sentences of it) brings out [i]even more[/i] hostility?

I apologize if I've given the impression that I'm insubordinate or that I'm undermining your authority somehow, but that's not what's happening here. I'm bringing new information to the discussion to try and [i]persuade[/i] you of one or two of my ideas. Don't say "please discuss this with me beforehand" and "please ask questions" in your OOC if you're then going to punish me for trying to discuss and to ask questions. I'm literally doing what you ask and you're shitting in my mouth for it, so what gives?

I'd still like to join if you'll let me. And this is me outright declaring, without ambiguity, that I can follow any directions I'm given from the GM team. That said, if you never wanted me here from the beginning, there are far easier and more straightforward ways of sending that message than saying I ask too few questions one second, too many the next, telling me to discuss ideas and then punishing me for discussing ideas, then pretending I'm the one who's being belligerent here when really I don't know how I can even respond without bringing this unearned hostility down on myself. Please, if I was never welcome here at all then you can stop playing games with me and just say so.

All right, I guess at this point I'm on standby to see your decision. Over.
