@Prince of Seraphs

Not necessarily. I think you're over-analytical and heavily opinionated. You read too much into stuff sometimes and get too serious. Gotta learn to let things go and relax a bit, boss. It's a game, it's meant to be fun. And I don't know about you, but starting what sometimes devolves into heated debates and arguments isn't fun in my book.

Where did this come from? Does this need to be taken to a private conversation? Do you need someone to talk to who will listen?

@Prince of Seraphs

As a person who's new to the cast of this RP, I haven't really developed a bias towards any of the RPers except for those who I knew prior to my joining. I wouldn't say condescending, just a bit overly critical over things at times. Which, might I add, isn't a bad thing. Always good to have a slightly opposing view, gives others the chance to further bolster the point they're trying to get across. It's not a pro, nor a con, just somewhere in the middle. I'd just say dial it back a bit on jumping the gun, and be a bit more laid-back when a conversation's nothing but casual chit chat.

On a side note, gonna wait another day or so before posting, gonna let a few more accumulate.
EDIT:
I used the word 'bit' too much in that. (‘A`)

@Prince of Seraphs

I agree with harine. Trust me, if I were to make a list of all the people in the world that I know who I would consider condescending or arrogant you wouldn't even make it in the top ten. If you want to meet the people who beat you on that list I can introduce you to my parents and siblings, because they are the reigning champions of the top five most condescending, arrogant, egotistical, and absolute inconsiderate people I know. Whatever's causing you to think this way Prince, you don't have to worry. I think you're a good guy... or girl... or whatever gender you are. (I'm assuming guy because of the username but I've been wrong in the past with assumptions like that so I'm just going to shut up now.)

Contest entry'll be up tomorrow. Was looking for move themes, and my heart shattered when I saw harine snagging nano songs. One of my favorite utaites right there. Good taste in moosic.

@Jedly

Thank you. Thank you.

@Lugubrious - I fully intend on participating in the contest, by the way. I'm just a big procrastinator with little energy and focus.

@Prince of Seraphs

Your questioning and affirmation that you have all the facts makes you come off as condescending and arrogant, yeah. As a Co-GM though I understand it's suppose to be your job to analyze players and their characters for any potential flaw or weakness that either needs to be addressed for storyline purposes or simply as advise. But like Harine says, a lot of time you cause quite a stir within the OOC that lasts for days on end as you battle it with the players over something or another. To put it simply, you try to help and all you do is cause a fight. It's not even a fun nonsensical fight like picture wars, which at least we can walk away from without feeling sadden by any perceived lost or something.

Cause you got to remember, as a Co-GM you do have some pull as to what happens in this RP. If you don't like a character us players have to some how compromise or appease you, because you have the authority to deny it. Sure you need Harine and Lugu's input too, but you're here most often so you can do the damage before they can arrive and handle the situation. Like that who fiasco with Kabel's cannibalism. Sure we had players who were concerned, but for the most part all they could really do is have their characters speak their thoughts on the matter. But when you came in and said Kabel needed to do something about it, it could no longer be ignored. It wasn't a complaint, it was an order, and one that not everyone agreed on. Eventually the other GM's came in and resolved the matter but I had a feeling you didn't exactly discuss your battle plan with them before you jumped in to lay down the law.

In a way you play the role of Sapphire quite well: You expect everyone to follow your command if only because you've been put into authority for it. You certainly do have the skills and knowledge to be a good Co-GM. But your approach leaves much to be desired. You have the title but lack the support, so everyone follows along because that's what is expected from us due to the Co-GM/Player dynamic. And as you can see with the rest of Team Swansong, this just makes players scheme and do their own thing without you, though it helps that two members of Team Swansong are also the characters of GM's.

@Lucius Cypher

Most of the time when I raise an issue with a character or story point I've completely forgotten that I'm a Co-GM. Usually the problems are something I feel need to be address and I've totally forgotten that I have the power to make people address them.

Where did this come from? Does this need to be taken to a private conversation? Do you need someone to talk to who will listen?

@harinezumikouken

In a Zelda RP I'm in a guy who'd had some trouble with contradictory and controversial posts PMed me his most recent post to make sure it was alright and ask if there was any thing he should edit. I gave him some advice with his post, some pointers here and there, a couple areas where he could be clearer, and what I thought of his new concept. Albeit going into more detail about it than I really should have (bad habit).

He proceeded to swear at me in a PM made almost with all caps. Tell me I was stifling his creativity, that I was talking out of my ass, that I should be arrested for crimes against RPers everywhere and that nothing I said held any weight. He then went into the Zelda RP told everyone else that he would not return unless I rotted in hell and informing everyone in all other RPs he was involved in that he could be on this site any more. He hasn't logged back on since.

@harinezumikouken

Please, I'm still recovering from the brutal beating you gave me in the goggle document. Therapist say I still need another month until I'm finally able to discuss what I had seen that day.

@Prince of Seraphs - Sounds like an immature kid who can't take honest, constructive criticism well. Don't let it get you down if it has, boss.

That dude has serious issues, I wouldn't worry about what he thinks.

@Invisible Man

Aww, poor widdle baby.

Does someone need a hug? A widdle kiss to make you feel better? Maybe a little tongue? A grope of teh butt?

-Clears throat- Sorry. It's been a few days.

[Crimmy]

@Prince of Seraphs

It's the know-it-all attitude that radiates off you in waves. It doesn't really help when you're so clinically nitpicking at everything. Even if you're not purposely trying to do so, this zealous sort of manner really comes off as you being a condescending dick.
