[OOC] Forgotten Realms: Tales of the Dead

[71342]

@DMZ I posted a screenshot of you saying "Too Late XD" when I said I would edit my post because of your mistake. Yes, I can indeed see how much you've edited your post to cover up your lies. The RPG users ALL can.

1) What do you mean "not allowed"? Isn't this a roleplay? I'm not violating any ettiquette (till my most recent IC post, but that's just a show that we players are not without means If you continue pulling this sht), or is this something we have no fReedom in saying?

2) You tried covering your tracks and mistake, still are, and when I said that I'd change my post because of it. You disregarded me. Till I posted evidence of your mistake!

You still ask me why I use screenshots? I can't bloody trust you anymore, that's why. Who can? After what you've done?

3) My character is something I put effort into thinking up, what gives you the right to dictate what he does and doesn't do? I've only attempted actions on your characters, I'd expect you to show the same (don't control the player's characters! Geez! It's our right.) . This may be dnd based, but it's still a roleplay. Respect my right as a writer as much as I've shown respect to your characters, at least. Ffs.

[DMZ]

No more jokes with you. I understand.

1) You did not read my post properly:

>I didn't expect you to charge at the mage, and my first reaction was 'this isn't allowed'. Which is when I caught myself on the fact that that would be railroading.

Decribed by first reaction, realized that reaction was not how a DM should react, went on to explain how I adapted instead.

2) I admitted the mistake. By my count, three times.

3) Am I dictating what he does? Being thrown back from the fence seems like a normal reaction to being shocked with a force and lightning ward. And it's one you can ignore.

We have a few options:

Both your and my relevant posts get edited and/or deleted.

We both adapt to what happened and continue the RP as normal, learning from mistakes made.

None of the above: You decide you don't want to accept my apologies, don't want to edit or delete your post, and continue to view everything I do as malice. I'll learn from my mistakes and apply the lessons to further interactions with the rest of the players, sans you.

This discussion, however, is over. I feel I have apologised enough, and I have offered you a set of choices to make.

[71342]

I can't help but think you're out to get me and my character now after this - I'm sure you can understand that I'm not being petty, given what transpired.

1) I'd prefer you retract completely, than "adapt" and not change anything at all. It's your OOC mistake, don't stubbornly push dumbass IC consequences onto the players even after they've called you out on it. It shows that you just don't give a fuck about us.

2) I'll take your word for it.

3) True, but then again we're playing in a world where your character mysteriously teleports around at your whim and doesn't shoot off into outer space because he defied gravity by levitating (asks physicists). "Reasonable" is a word that can mean "Hahah, bullsht happens cuz I said so." In a Roleplay.

... I really don't like having to do this again, it makes this roleplay a waste of fucking time. I vote to option one.

[DMZ]

I won't be out to get your character after this. That's not how I do roleplays or DM players. I also won't be out to get _you_, but I certainly won't attempt anything interesting or out of the box with you for a while, given the shitstorm that happened right now due to me trying to think outside of the box.

And I don't understand how you're _not_ petty, since everything after that sentence looks like pure, distilled pettiness to me. Perhaps other players will view it differently. In my eyes, you have now earned a marker that I will have to consult every time I attempt to do something in the game, to make sure I don't offend you. It's a shame I have to account for this.

My post has been retracted.

[71342]

Generally not giving a damn when I pointed out your mistake in pm with your "Too late XD" remark then posting in IC exactly how you don't give a damn to show me how much exactly that wasn't a joke. When you could have just changed your post or let me change mine? What are you trying to accomplish?

It is not thinking outside the box or any creative form of roleplaying. It will be like saying selling heroin is a creative way of proving you could be a police. You didn't even apologise, you accused me of doctoring the screenshots and edited your ooc posts!

I'm not interested in partaking anymore. To think I put in so much effort trying to jumpstart this thread when it was practically dead.

To @knighthawk@El Taco Taco and beautrix too, it was wonderful playing with you guys while it lasted.

[El Taco Taco]

Man, I miss everything when I'm in the lab.

[DMZ]

I'd like to take this opportunity to have the rest of the players voice anything I need to work on or can improve. I don't like things like this to happen again if I can help it.

[DMZ]

Since nobody has anything to express regarding my conduct, on we move!

@El Taco Taco @knighthawk you're up!

[knighthawk]

Was gone this weekend, holiday and all, but the only thing I would say is that maps are very useful. Even crappy MS paint would still clear up a LOT of complications.

[DMZ]

Copy, will draft a map soonish. Taco's off doing some university work.

[DMZ]

Okay, I'll be posting _tomorrow_ if Taco hasn't replied, and will provide a map of what this looks like from my POV.

[knighthawk]

YAY!

By the by, with only two other players, you might want to see about drumming up interest again.

[aladdin_sane]

I am itchin' to create a "Gorillafolk". Are they allowed? http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Gorillafolk_%283.5e_Race%29

[DMZ]

@aladdin_saneThat's going to have to be retrofitted to match the current game system we have, since +16 to stats with a mere -2 penalty is a bit off, but if you want to put in the work, by all means!

Be prepared for this having a profound effect in how the party(and your character) is treated in cities and your combat being harder.

[DMZ]

That was just embarassing.

I wrote that post up as many as 16 times, and forgot to click 'save' 16 times... in 4 different days before shutting down the PC.

[knighthawk]

have we heard from tacotaco?

[DMZ]

Nothing yet, so I'll take over with automanagement until the return. In the meantime I'm working on getting some new players.

[Drache]

Hello. I am very interested. I have several characters I could offer up, the first being a half-dragon sorceress, the second being a half-elf druid.

[DMZ]

@DracheEither one is workable, though the half dragon will have to endure harder battles.

[knighthawk]

I like half dragon sorceress's.
