The Internet: Where people with no balls can resort to trolling people anonymously so they don't get their asses kicked.

A friend of mine once told me that 'it's only ego if you can't back it up'. Too many people like to confuse confidence for arrogance -- there's a big difference.

Not to get all psychological, but some people are actually just 'wired' to take things people say literally. I'm like that to an extent, but I've learned that people here are usually just shitposting.

Happy Anniversary, Ailyn. Six years ago, you gave me a kindred soul, and brought light into a life which for all intents and purposes had been mostly nothing but darkness.

Valentine's Day's bittersweet when you've endured a long-distance relationship for over five years. Here's to celebrating the strength of a meaningful bond, instead of taking a shallow and easy path.

This bio will get reconstructed once I've left the site for good. I'll be collecting my data in the background for now, and sorting some loose ends. I'll be on and off to do it, so don't think I'm back if you see me around. Once I've dealt with everything, I'll log out properly and remove my 'ghost' status, and that'll be the last this site sees of me. This community is in serious need of growing up, and I'm not the least bit surprised that role-plays die here so frequently.

The 'Grim Reaper's Gambit' role-play is likely to reboot elsewhere eventually. The role-play will have some modifications, so contact me if you're curious since the original project won't accurately explain everything. There's no determined date for it to happen yet, since I've got other priorities and I'm not investing a lot of time in it until enough of the people interested have free time to properly commit (lack of dedication on the part of some players practically destroyed the previous version; it's very apparent it would've died even if I hadn't decided to leave). There's a group that're quite interested, but most of them are busy.

Anyway, come back later for an update later -- or don't; it's your life.

Contact Details

Tell me who you are or I possibly won't accept the request, since I assume most requests are bots.
Yes, people who I rarely/never spoke to - or who never met me - while I was still here are welcome.
No, those who disrespected me (and aren't sorry) while I was here or are trolls/immature in general aren't welcome.
Also, keep in mind that not all of these are currently being used actively, so friend request replies might be delayed on some of them.

Playstation Network (PSN): Shoryu_Magami
(I'm fairly easy to contact through here, though I'm not really gaming much due to my main project's workload.)

Discord: Shoryu Magami#4323
(Unlike Skype, I primarily text chat on this instead of voice chat. It's currently one of the easiest ways to find me. It causes my PC a lot of problems though.)

Skype: solitaryangel1983
(Usually running on my phone, mostly so I can talk to my fiancΓ©, so it's easy to find me here. I've currently got no access to it on PC. It might take a while to see requests.)

Facebook: James Koutsoukis - Shoryu Magami
(Barely ever on this, but it exists. Mostly exists so @Ailyn Evensen can list me as her fiancΓ©. You'll find me easily on messenger if you add me, but I don't do much else.)

Yahoo IM: shoryu_magami
(Does this even still exist anymore? It used to be my main method of text chat, but it's not on my current PC.)

"The souls that God has given us, our spirits.
Our spirits, which found a way to swim through the immense network and live in the infinity of space.
Is not the human body a mere shell, a form of existence all too small and weak for consciousness with such vast reach and potential?"
Dr. Londes (Cowboy Bebop)

"When you're in the darkness, you only sink deeper into it. Keep the light shining."
Kenzo Tenma (Naoki Urasawa's Monster)

"But you must always remember that the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
Alucard (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)

"If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.
Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever."
Sarah Mohr (The Crow)

"Is there an indelible line dividing sanity from insanity, or do they change, one into the other, at the slightest turn of events?
We'll find out, soon enough, that the world itself is insane."
Vincent Volaju (Cowboy Bebop: The Movie)

"It's not the result of one's life that's important.
It's the day-to-day concerns, the personal victories, and the celebration of life... and love.
It's enough if people are able to experience the joy that each day can bring."
Terra Branford (Final Fantasy VI)

Got your PM too. Cheers for getting back to me, Ed.

I'm not gonna lie, I was getting worried about you there, since it almost felt like one of those 'you disappear for months, or half a year' moments was coming. I figured those days should be over now that you're in a better living situation, so I had a feeling something was wrong, and it looks like I was right. We were concerned about you.

Anyway, as soon as we're both around, we'll work stuff out. It shouldn't be too late, especially since this week is likely to be the slowest week in terms of progressing this IC forward (need to finish up the collaboration to shift the chapter forward). Once this week ends, I want things to move into full gear for everyone. There's quite a lot we need to talk about, so the sooner the better.

I didn't want to have to 'single you out' in that last post, but it'd be unfair for me to break my own rules (I blatantly told everyone to remain active in the rules, otherwise I'd take whatever means I needed to keep the story moving without them) and make exceptions to them just because you're a good friend off the site. I'm sure you understand.

Either way, it's good to know you're still invested because I really would prefer Guy remain in your hands. It sounds like you had a good reason for vanishing, based off everything you told me over Skype, but we need to avoid that sort of thing as much as possible, especially without explanation and without preparation to make sure the group isn't sabotaged because of it. Regardless, I'm glad you're alright, and you know I'm good to talk if you need an ear.
@JDolan

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the option to make a simple rearrangement is a bad idea or something, nor am I saying it'd be a good idea to have an option to hide the feature (given how immature a lot of the people using it are). I just think making the feature more difficult to notice - when simply not paying attention to it works for myself and other people (for the most part, anyway) - takes lower priority than fixing a lot of the other incomplete or flawed gimmicks this site has. There's also other features the site's missing outright.
@GarlandDaHero

How's things?
Is the thing really even that 'in people's faces' to begin with? I mean, I generally don't even notice it unless I deliberately read it.

With that in mind, I think this site has far bigger priorities in terms of updates.
@lazyintrovert

Welcome to RPGuild. All the best.
@Raddum

Cheers. *realizes the irony of thanking people with such a statement when he's a non-drinker*
@Raddum

Lol, I don't drink. After observing this Status Bar, I'm more certain than ever that this was a wise decision.
@Raddum

I don't know whether to be entertained by these Status Bar antics, or disturbed. I'll just go back to work.
@Raddum

That's concerning...

I think I'll just go back to assuming everyone on the Status Bar is smoking something.
