Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eric, kindly just go sit in the corner and shut the ******** up.

Stray, Eric is one of the most active members of the RP. He's been posting as Nightmare since practically day one, when it was basically just Dark, Barbara, and Kagome just kicking it. As a result, the character has been gradually becoming more and more well established over the years.

Furthermore, aside from the cannon characters, Nightmare is the only OC that has stuck around long enough to warrant an additionally look into his background. Even then, the cannon characters are already pre-defined; we know who they are, who they used to be, and sometimes who they will become before it even happens.

As an OC, Nightmare doesn't have that luxury. Thus, his story is more detailed, more intricate, and more consuming than some of the cannon characters, because there isn't nearly a century of writing behind him to define his character. Eric, you aren't allowed to say another word in retaliation either.

Well sure, it's good for characters to have a lot of history. My OCs have a lot of history. I just assume by default that no one really cares though and stay content alluding to it all. I guess that's my failing.

Thanks, YK.... It's nice not being alone. .-.

Ok, I admit I may have gone alittle too far with that, and I apologize.

And we have always done that Yoshi, every arch has made one or two characters the main focus atleast once. Maybe Nightmare wouldn't seem like a main character if more people posted more often. Nobody has complained in the X-Men rp about Deadpool becoming the main character since he seems to be making posts out the wazoo.

I am not aware that anyone has previously complained about Nightmare stealing the spotlight, nor do I see any connection between the number of posts and the topic of a story. I do, however, see a problem with a story being rewritten for the sole purpose of bringing attention to a single character. Now I don't know if it's intentional, but when Dark asked me if I wanted to write an arc for this rp I turned it down, mostly because I felt you would end up twisting it to be about Nightmare, and I feel there is something very wrong with that.

As much as I hate to agree with Eric on this, he does have a point. Eric and I are literally the only people in this RP that DON'T go off and disappear for weeks or months at a time. Stray sticks around the OC pretty well, but other than that it feels like we're on our own most of the time. We are always here, and as long as we aren't written into a corner, we will post as our characters just to keep the damn thread going.

You wanna know why it constantly feels like Nightmare's story is being thrust into the spotlight? Its because, no matter where we are in an arch, people get bored, busy, or whatever else is going on in their lives and we're the only ones here to post. I may get alittle lax in my posting from time to time if I'm not directly involved, but I'm ALWAYS checking the OC and RP.

In other news, Powergirl through the Ages.... yes, the last ones are made up... I hope...not. xp

I check the occ, just don't post in the rp o.o; Because a junior lantern really has no authority. Dark was playing John, and that one jmorty guy was playing Kyler.

*looks* ... I'll fully explore it later, in the mean time, Kitana has told me that if we ever run into Circe, she recommends it be [x].
