[quote=@BrokenPromise] I just looked back through my posts for the past year or so. Aside from a single "is this dead" check I made 5 months ago, all of my pings for Shinny have been to ask questions and always in the OOC here. I hardly consider that nagging, and Shinny even seemed to appreciate some of the questions I directed at them. I wasn't able to locate an instance of me "hounding" anyone in other topics. Anyway, what's the problem with getting everyone's input? If you ask me, it only makes sense to talk to everyone and see if they all agree with how to move forward. If you're not cool with that, you and Alucroas could just make another thread and pretend that you two are the only ones left and continue it as a 1x1. I don't think anyone could object to that. But here you have other players and no consent to do anything with any of them. Additionally, [i]if[/i] I decide not to continue, and [i]if[/i] I need to write out my character, I will do so myself or have it done by a player of my choosing. [/quote] https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/5594158 [justify]You need to seriously reconsider how you come off to others. [i]Most[/i] people in this hobby aren't going to tell you that you're being annoying until you've pushed their final button, and that's fair, [i]most[/i] people aren't in this hobby to argue with someone and will just choose to leave an undesirable situation rather than stress out on their free time. I appreciate that you don't come from a combat-heavy background so maybe you've got habits from other venues and maybe you just thought you were being cute with that comment, but let me be very clear, you have come off as a nag, you've consistently tried to push this thread in a direction you wanted it go at a pace you wanted to go and it has made the experience less pleasant than it could have been. Maybe not for [i]everyone[/i], but certainly for the host. Anyways, I'm not interested in a protracted argument with you, and [b]we[/b] are interested in continuing this thread. If you want to write yourself out you can do to that and if you want to stick around you can do that too, but if you haven't posted by the time I'm prepared to post then I'll write you out myself. Not out of malice. But it's unfair if we choose to fight and then you decide several turns later that you actually did want to stick around and show up just as everyone is exhausted and on the verge of death, so, like I did with Spickle when she wasn't interested in continuing I'd just say boxes fell and suddenly you're gone. Or something similarly non-offensive. As far as traps and artifacts go, yeah that was interesting, Shinny's gone now and Toyale is his baby. I'm not interested in anyone taking his place. And like I said. You've been kind of unpleasant to deal with the entire time so I'm not [i]deeply[/i] interested in talking with you about how [i]you[/i] want to run the Toyale, it's not your thread, it's not what Shinny intended when he stepped down. We can potentially talk about a time limit if you want. But if you really want to run a DnD style battle royale I honestly just suggest running your own, it could be really interesting, but I don't want to participate in it or see this turn into it.[/justify]
