The person does sound like a douche. I've personally never done arena/battle RP's personally, but, anyway.

I'll probably never do arena rp's. I like to avoid drama and confrontation when I can. For now, I will sit here and finish knitting my boobie project.

Well I've given my final post there, since it's blatantly apparent that my main goal (emphasizing my input for how battle-oriented role-plays - an important part of any narrative involving conflict - should work if the priority is good writing instead of merely being competitive) is being ignored and BrokenPromise is looking for a fight because they don't understand that everything we're saying is subjective and that's the whole fucking point of people with different preferences posting there.

What is this...? I don't even...

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami

Basically, that's me applauding you. xD

[Shoryu Magami]

@HaleyTheRandom
Is that's you, we have problems...

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami Haha. No, not me.

[Shoryu Magami]

@HaleyTheRandom
I know you just told me you're a brunette, but that would've been a bit ridiculous... xD

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami Gotta say I agree xD

[Shoryu Magami]

@HaleyTheRandom
So how're you doing?

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami Pretty okay today.

My friend is being an ass and threatening to move to Georgia and then flipping out on me for flipping out on him.

Yourself?

[Gowi]

Evidently, my power is out. Hopefully this won't be a thing for my entire day.

[Shoryu Magami]

@HaleyTheRandom
Why're they flipping out and making threats, or is that too personal? Either way, sounds annoying.

Other than my same old of stress and being overworked and fatigued? I'm irritated that there's no way to remove the "Likes"/"Laughs"/"Thanks" you give on this site after you leave the page. A couple of posts in hindsight are ones that I'd really prefer to retract (or change) my feedback regarding (nothing to do with the recent discussion, so you know). You can do stuff like that on Facebook, so why not here? It feels like this is trying to replicate that system.

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami Any time anything happens, he threatens to move.

His dad want's him down there, so it's most likely going to happen sooner or later, but that doesn't change that I don't want to learn yet another person in my life.

Ugh. I know what you mean. Perhaps we should suggest something to Mahz about it sometime.

[Gowi]

Unless I'm insane, there used to be a way to rescind likes. I remember, distinctively, of doing it before.

[Shoryu Magami]

@HaleyTheRandom
I can understand threatening to move under bad circumstances, but whenever drama pops up? That's a bit excessive unless there's other reasons to leave, which based on what you've said there apparently is; still a pain in the ass though. Well even if it does happen we'll be here, even if certain individuals sure want to go out of there way to make me not want to be here (intentionally or not).

We should definitely post something up about it, either directly to Mahz or in suggestions. Some of these feedbacks I'm referring to are actually really irritating me. I don't really use Facebook at all and I only created an account so Ailyn could list me as her fiancé, so this whole "Like" system is something I've never done before and honestly it makes me a bit uncomfortable.

@Shoryu Magami@Gowi@HaleyTheRandom
Regarding retracting Likes/Laughs/Thanks, you can only do so within the first ten seconds you clicked on the button; after which it's permanent. I also have times I wished to take back the likes and whatnot, but oh well. You can still suggest that to Mahz, if you want.

[Sugar and Spite]

@Shoryu Magami Things are bad for him here as far as school goes, but, like I said, it still doesn't change anything. He knows how I feel about it and then he wants to turn around and joke about it and that's jut NOT something that you do to a person.

@Shoryu Magami Hm. Well, it did take some getting used to myself and I am an active Facebook user xD

@tsukune@Shoryu Magami

Maybe we should mention it in the Dev journal?

[Dolerman]

The Arena section in every site I've been to, not just RPG's personal one, have always been awful by my perspective and definition. I haven’t really read the debate myself between you and BrokenPromise so I cannot give you an opinion on that individual exchange. I just try to keep away from Arena as a rule— and this has made me tagged as an “elitist” (when I am anything but) by some users on the site— because it is often very hostile and antagonistic generally but I imagine given its competitive and dick-waving standards that comes with the territory.

@Gowi

I'd have to disagree, while arena has its problems, mainly from the fact that it has a very small user base. The community on there are no worse then just RP communities in general. I dont know all the details of this dispute. But I've seen more bias and elitism in Off-Topic, Chatroom and Casual Rps then in Arena. I started out in RPG purely as an arena player, and everyone there was always very mature and sociable.

I realise just by disagreeing with you I'm putting my own reputation on the line, but I dont think that antagonism label is justified.
