Welcome to Gaia! ::

That's because a) I'm being myself instead of a character that's his own person in a sense, b) I know what I wanted to say, and c) I had a decent few hours of sleep, so....

Either way, typing up an opinionated novel is different than typing a post that relies on creativity, which actually does require more effort.

Ok, so Im with Sonic on this. Regardless of what life issues may be going on you should still be able to make the proper post. It has said on the front page since day one what the proper way of posting is. If you joined the guild not thinking that it applied to you then you are wrong.

Im a Fugitive Recovery Agent and former Police Officer. Kou what foes that have to do with anything? Stress, like all of us it means stress. I see things on a daily basis that no person should ever have to see, make choices that no one my age should have to make. Ive been shot at spit on and even stabbed. I really dont want to hear a sympathy story because I could tell you things that you would only normally see on TV. Hell Ive even had to arrest people, as FRA, whom were in need of medical care. Call me heartless, cold or cruel, but I show no sympathy for anyone whom doesnt follow the rules. So that being said, I agree with my friend Loon. If you cant follow rules that are not new(it says in the update) then leave and make your own guild. You can make it as loose and carefree as possible

Let me stop you right there. I never said that he felt the rule didnt apply to him. I simply said that if he joined feeling the rule didnt apply to him then he was wrong. Also, you quite clearly mossed the whole point of my rebuttal. It was simply that even with the stress that I have in my personal life that I manage to meet guild rules and guidelines with my one character. You know not to mention, once again for the umpteenth time, THE RULES HAVE BEEN THERE SINCE THE START!

Its not about if you follow the rule or not, its the way that you go about following it that is the issue. Its the clear disregard for the rule that the reiterated it because its being ignored.



Im not even going to address this because I wasnt comparing horror stories in the slightest. Im not suffering and Im not one of those members because I have followed the rules since day one.




They wanted pre opinions before the fact. They got them. They are thinking of general fairness as a whole not because some group of friends come in and think they can bully their way into getting what they want. Its also quite apparent that you lot have had other issues in the passed, based off some personal research I have done myself on the matter




Aaaaaaand this... The defuser. Guess what? It doesnt work that way, you cant fire back and expect people to just drop it. It most certainly doesnt work that way. My not a mpd or crew and therefore will show no remorse and hold nothing back. Every word every sentence I will pick a part if you continue on. This while thing right here? It isnt even me trying to be rude bit Loon gave you an option so you can take it or you can stay but if you stay I dont want to have to waste my time dealing with simple bickering from a group of people that disagree with what mods say. Let me give you an example. A Highway Patrolman pulls you over. You were clearly speeding. He asks you if you think he should give you a ticket or a warning. Very upright and rudly you declare that you feel you need to receive a warning because you werent actually speeding. He walks away runs your license and insurance and comes back. He tells you that based off your attitude he has decided to give you a ticket. He writes it up and goes about his day. You complain, yeah, but does it change anything? Nah not really you have to just suck it up and pay the fine and make sure next time you follow the rules of the road. So like Loon has said if you dont like it then leave

Alright, alright.

Let's stop. If people want to respond or continue the discussion, move to PMs.

Koukaze is right, in that it's not fair to argue, and then tell people to drop it, so that they look like the bad guy if they respond, which they have the right to.

However, Jewel's also right; the ooc has dealt with too much argumentative crap as it is.

I stand by everything I said in my post, and I still disagree strongly with what initiated this, but if anyone wants to discuss it, we can move it to PMs. Let's move things forward, and in the future, once things become a back and forth, I will try and intercept quickly and ask the same things.

The public of the guild does not need to deal with this, and while I hate moving things to PMs as a mod because it looks like things are trying to be covered up, I will, in the future, make mention of sending messages so that people know something's being addressed, and leave it at that.

Let's try and shift the subject along.

I will help with making the OOC feel more like the OOC again.

Finally got around to posting in Mt. Moon again, decided to battle something in Kanto and of course, it's a Paras. Why a bug pokemon for my character who is scared of them? I went this way to help him avoid bugs. In Forests he never runs into bug pokemon, but a mountain is where I thought he'd do great with all his water pokemon. lol

I just imagine an army of Paras going "You came to the wroooong neighborhood boy" xD

Helping with putting in nicer comments.

So, for a while I've been trying to get the gumption (and the good enough excuse) to do those thirty posts in a forest or cave with Sable so she could grab a Big Mushroom. Kept burning out after certain points, though, and had kept insisting to myself that eventually, I'd get it. With traveling with Spec's character and the fact that we both need to get two badges (preferably three) from a region fairly quickly, though, I've kinda put that plan on the backburner, at least until we get through Misty and possibly Surge.

Well, with these new achievements I figured, since I'm waiting a bit, I might as well update the lists for my characters and update the post on their profiles for stuff I still need to claim for them. Stuff like horoscope Pokemon, event items, and just stuff I haven't had an opportunity to introduce yet. Well, upon fixing that to also include the event items, I noticed that sitting right in Sable's unclaimed items list is a Big Mushroom. XD So that marks off one thing to worry about for now.
