[OOC] The World of Blood Compact

[BurningCold]

Anyone have any ideas as to how I should reenter?

[Wraithblade6]

@BurningCold well I happen to know that Grey is very dissappointed about Lucan having been stuck for like 2 weeks waiting on you. You were supposed to help him hack out the information on Mithias' whereabouts so he could show up at the major fight scene that were about to do. Instead, everyone else is already there.
I think you need to free Grey's New character and have Cupid help Deon. Maybe Mattias could try to stop some zombies. Try to come up with something cool on your own. People like reading interesting things.

@Wraithblade6 Would you believe me if I said that I completely missed Grey's post? I'll try to work on something. I only asked to make sure that I wouldn't be intruding anywhere.

...

I am so done right now.

[BlackPanther]

Well
Today is my birthday
So I will be out for a bit but I will be on again because I am addicted to this site

[The Grey Dust]

@BurningCold

Look, are you going to be able to continue doing this or are you too busy?
You've given me rather subpar posts so far for engagement and frankly you've been holding me up.
If you are too busy, or have too much on your plate right now, I will godmod your character out of the picture and suspend most of your characters into a black void to be retrieved later. If not please at the least get up a post within the next four hours of considerable action so we can move on with the plot. Thank you.

BurningCold, I know you've been busy and I know you said you simply "missed" Grey's post, but the very fact that you missed it shows you have no sense of responsibility. You have really aggravated several players in this rp, and you have done nothing to make up for it, not even a decent apology. You didn't even take the time to go back and look at what had happened while you were out to properly catch up. You're simply not very involved here, and I've had it.

I am not officially kicking you, but I don't think anyone cares where you jump back in, because nobody wants to play with someone so irresponsible and inconsiderate. Do whatever. Good luck getting anybody to interact with you.

[Kurai Assassin]

That's gotta be the most passive aggressive way to have a go at someone I've ever seen. But for real man it's not just been know, in the past you've taken a lot of time to get round to posting a reply with very little to add to the story.

[Wraithblade6]

@BlackPanther Oh, and happy birthday man.

[BurningCold]

I haven't given a "decent apology" simply because I'm not sorry. Your RP is not a top priority in my life in the slightest. If having a real life brimming with trouble for me and the people that I care about makes me irresponsible and inconsiderate then I guess I am. I came on here just now intending to inform the whole RP that I've been losing interest and wanted to part on good terms, but this hostility here shows me that this cannot be the case. I understand that you may be frustrated, but I at least expect some amount of cordiality. I came on this site to avoid aggressive and belligerent time bombs like you two. If I've caused either of you inconvenience, then I am utterly pleased with myself. May this roleplay share the same fate as the previous Blood Compacts. Good day. @Wraithblade6@The Grey Dust

@BurningCold

Well that is a true show of character.

I've been patient and lenient on the entire thing.
And to be fair, I was being nice. If you can't seem to keep up, then that's fine, just don't drag everyone down through the myre.
If you had real life issues, yes I understand I had them but I keep people posted and updated regarding when I should be back by.
And I make good on my promises to put up a post in a timely manner with enough push to actually make a significant contribution between gaps. Although at this point, the RP has stagnated to the point where you have left your plot behind and everyone has progressed.

The irresponsible part on your half is to put your roleplaying partners through this ordeal of waiting for you. I had had enough respect for you to not godmod, or let Wraith godmod us out of this mess since frankly we wanted your character to be controlled by you. Godmodding is essentially railroading your character in a way that may be not the way you envision your character would react. Hence I would wait for your post. Yet you give me a post of hardly a paragraph long and then claim to "miss" my post? That's just insult to injury now.

If you lost interest, then don't make the rest of us lose interest as well. Although given your spiteful choice of words, I can see that now you would prefer to be toxic and poisonous to the thread when you don't feel comfortable with long-due criticism, mercurial even I'd say. And I hope that whatever has been going on in your life that's causing you angst be dealt with on your end, then maybe you can get your bearings together and actually commit to things in lieu of being the weak link that breaks the chain.

Goodbye.

I'm actually so very confused right now. Wraith and Grey have both been nothing but good to the entire Rp, I understand life comes up a lot but I've been on the relieving end of awaiting a post from BurningCold twice now. The first in Britain which I could very easyily move along out of, but the second I had to wait a week for a reply. Not only that but then when they returned it was like the meetings between our characters never existed.

If you wish to be toxic then by all means you will not be missed but I suggest that you do actually apologise to both Grey and Wraith as that was an unprovoked attack against both of them. You were the clear aggressor, both showed a clear point that your absence had caused the RP to grind to a near halt and whether you missed the post or not, it is your duty as a Player to get yourself upto date on what's going off. No one else's but yours. I'll be fair, I've been gone for long periods of time. Purely on the bases of exams but that hasn't stopped me from reading along with what happens in the RP. And when I do post , it is long enough to to get my characters back where they need to be.

At this point I think I'm just wasting my time writing this, but I know for a fact that Wraith or Grey would ever "kick" or harass anyone for not posting over a short period of time but there are limits. It's why I think that I mainly stick to the blood compact RPs, I've grown too fond of the people that are involved with it as they actually support their fellow players rather than kick them. When I first joined the original blood compact I'd been on the guild for a month and had never Rped before but instead of turning me away I was invited in and made welcome and actually helped to become the role player I am today.

Tl;Dr don't give a damn if you leave, just don't let the door hit you on the way out. Have a pleasant evening.

Damn everyone is taking part in this discussion and it seems like I should add my salt to the soup as well.

However I am always the one who says something awkward or funny to ease the tension in fights or change the subject but I'll be honest.
Holy crap ASDF I don't have the slightest idea what I could post. So the great me has decided to share an appreciate,

The Dandy Way To Live!

ENJOY!

@BlackPanther

I already congratulated you but let's do it again!
Happy birthday, have fun and dont forget to party hard!

[Wraithblade6]

Alright. So I need Remipa to do stuff with Deon. I also want to suggest he have Deon classically "reveal his evil plans" right before he flees or leaves the heroes to die. It would be handy if he would mention the coming resurrection of Dracula, how Soldier is screwed and distrusted, and how nobody can stop the zombie plague that is breaking out outside.

I'm willing to play Dracula if we need or want that. I feel like I know the character.

Our heroes need to try to apprehend Deon, best to take him alive, free Mithias *cough*, and try to get outside and stop the virus from becoming a world wide apocalypse problem. Btw, Soldier has also been blamed for blowing up a UN building.

Mithias is going to go straight to Soldier headquarters and fire a bunch of people... might be violent. >>

Bedivere could totally show up, pissed about not getting his report, and learn about the zombies, Soldier's denigration, and maybe about Deon's involvement. He probably won't know about Dracula.... which I am kind of excited about that plot tangent.

Rempia, why the hell do we have to ship Drac over seas for this??

[Kurai Assassin]

@Wraithblade6

Question? May I kill off Cupid seen as we have seen the last of Mr Cold

[Wraithblade6]

yeah. He's fair game now.

[Kurai Assassin]

@Wraithblade6

Excellent, he shall leave the way he left the RP. Pathetically

[Shoe Thief]

@Wraithblade6

EXPLAINING TIME! For a few things. The zombie plague is actually designed to be stoppable, Deon still wants humans left, he just wants to thin numbers and use up ammunition reserves and destroy infrastructure.

As for shipping Dracula before resurrection there are a few reasons behind this. Dracula is not in the same world he was in before, his reaction to modern times may not be pleasant so Deon wants that to be in a controlled environment. Another reason is control again, he wants Dracula to be relieved in a manner in which he basically screws over a ton of people at once, not some random people spotting him as they prepare to do awesome shit. Another major reason is humans have nukes, chances are not many will be launched by counties too much to stop zombies. Some may be, but most the armories would still have a decent supply. But if Deon was to have Dracula revealed and start war on Mainland United States, it's going to be a harder decision for the government officials to launch nukes onto their own borders. And if another country did the US would not react well and more humans would die out. Last but not least, I love the idea of the TSA asking Deon about the dead body in his carry on.

So I don't have the post ready yet, but I have ideas pulled together. Going to try to start an epic fight scene soon enough. Just gonna take some time.

[Kurai Assassin]

@Remipa Awesome

TSA agent opens the bag and starts panicking. "You...you...you've got too many litres of water sir. We're gonna have to frisk search you"

[Shoe Thief]

Meant to get a post up today, website is giving me too many problems to do so. Sorry. Going to aim for tomorrow now.
