Sorry, Lucius. You should grab some popcorn. [quote=@KoL] God, when did a mere suggestion ensued such a reply? Furthermore, I typed it without reloading the page, so Windel's post actually [i]"ninja'd"[/i] mine, nevertheless what I wrote is still relevant as an answer and even if it wasn't I don't think a complete inoffensive remark would deserve the above reply. I never said I dislike you, really, when was that? Try to think again before being this harsh, what I really dislike is offensive people, let's not being another argument, please. PS: I don't remember any of us ever mentioning that the players can't create their own situations, just look at Kenji for a good example. [/quote] It was offensive. You accused me of inflexibility when I had no fault whatsoever in the misunderstanding. If you didn't mean it to be offensive--well, lesson learned. No hard feelings. You have explicitly said you dislike me, right here: [quote=@KoL] [@Lugubrious] You've earned my dislike not because you have made your opinion known, but because you was trying to push it on us. [/quote] That was the second part of your running tally of red marks on my history with this RP. The first one was when [quote=@Lucius Cypher]Lugu assumed from what was written that we the players have a fairly free reign with how the story develops, including our characters, who are instrument to that story.[/quote]] All NPCs, monsters, and so forth are completely under GM jurisdiction. I can't do anything but walk somewhere and wait for one of you to make something happen there. [@Zeroth] walked to the butcher's and waited for something to happen there, and Lucius obliged him. He couldn't make the situation with the butcher on his own. I rather think that's a good example of what I'm talking about, not what you're talking about. Please note that I don't have a problem with responding to GM-offered situations; it just requires GM involvement frequently. I had not dreamed that this 'issue' could have been resolved anything but simply. I bear Windel no ill will, and I'm not even upset with you, kol, and am in fact perfectly ready to proceed now that I'm sure of the situation. I don't see why Windel might get ticked off; he's proven himself entirely affable and reasonable. Unfortunately, I also don't know what would happen were that to occur. Would I get kicked?
