Okay. Here goes. Official response.

First of all, I would like to take the time to apologize to everyone who read my rant. I was driven into a bit of a psychotic episode after a whole ordeal of IRL stresses piling atop these ones. The rant has thus-forth been obliterated unto time and I encourage everyone else who typed in this ordeal to go back and obliterate their own contributions so as to prevent a relapse.

That being said, I am still highly disappointed. Mainly with myself for succumbing to an emotional outburst at the worst possible time... However, this being said, it could have been handled better by all parties involved. First of all, it should have stayed in the OOC, so I could attack it when I was ready for it, and to not stress me out further than I already was. Second of all, those that were angered should have walked away to calm down before expressing dismay at the PM, which indeed, was a terrible written piece of tripe along the linguistic masterpieces of Nigerian Princes. Third of all, after stating dismay, arguments should not have flared up here.

Anyway, one thing that needs to get out of the way.

Zed. You're out. As in, blacklisted from this RP, and any future RP's I make. I've tried time and time again to tell you not to egg on problems and yet you do. This would not have been halfway as bad as it was if it wasn't for you, and pretty much everyone universally agrees you made a bad situation significantly worse. Atop this, this isn't the first time you've done this, and when I tried to talk with you about it, [i]you reveled in what you did[/i]. I pride my RP's on being places where people can escape trolls, dehumanizers, discrimination, and so on. You have no place here as you repeatedly violate these things without a single regard. [b]Get out, goodbye, and try not to let the door hit your ass on the way out[/b].

As for others that need to be talked to, I'll address you in private, as that seems better than public call-outs that would only service to further divide those of us who want to role play. Because remember, at the end of the day, Sole, or whoever else sends you inflammatory content, is not part of this RP. There's no point or purpose to raging about it, especially at each other, or at me, over things someone who is not even part of the RP, has said or done.

Now I'd suggest a group hug and apologies go around, sooth any wounds. I know a couple relationships with me were damaged badly, I'm sure it happened to others here, and there's no reason the rest of you need to suffer with that. So brohugs. You can't stop the demon invasion if you hate each other more than the demons hate you, and some of them [i]run on hatred[/i].

Alright, so, to repeat a couple of other things.

[b]If you don't have time to post in the IC:[/b] Let me know what you would like your characters to do in the OOC, and I'll describe it for you in the IC.

[b]What about that IC post?:[/b] Now that my Internet is back, lets scale it back to Monday, give everyone the entire weekend to post in it. Does this sound fair?

[b]What if I want to complain and derail the OOC more?:[/b] Take it to Steam or PM's.

[b]But Brov--[/b] [u]Get outta here[/u]. :lol
