[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 781894, member: 1194"] Barry, I just saw you posted, with a request to not talk about it. But I don't think that I should be gagged. I want to get across my impressions, and people can take them as they will...Well... since you asked... ;) I think it's ironic, and very instructive, that you think it was "OK" for Kitana to do (basically) EXACTLY what Vych did. VERY instructive... I'm not one to beat around the bush, as you can guess. I believe that OOC play should stay in the OOC thread, unlike ya'll dragging things into the IC as has been done. The "IC-scene dominatrixes" have a problem when someone dictates the outcome of a scene? How ironic. You guys do realize how dominating you've been in-character, right? How difficult it looks to write in any scene where Sabrina and Caitlyn happen to be in the same room? It reads silly, the obsession they have recently had with each other, and the way you guys jumped the gun and posted so many things, moving the action along while not waiting for anyone's input shows that you are both missing how your intense interplay is hedging out other players. As I read it, Vych either had to accept her subservient, miniscule role you'd left for her in the scene, and be ultimately dismissed by [b]Kitana[/b], or she could post, and try to create some room for her character to play in. She had already done the former, and it hadn't gone away, so she decided to try the latter approach. ________________________________ [b]Personally[/b], I think that most posting issues that boil down to "timing" can just be read thru, if you read between the lines, seeing the whole scene, and working the posts together. It's inevitable that in this PbP medium that sometimes people's posts go "out of order" *gasp!* Especially when 2 characters in the game get a tight relationship and advance their storyline faster than the pace of the Chronicle. What would you have us all do? Just sit back and continue to watch your interplay? Why don't I pop some popcorn, while I'm at it? [i]"Welcome to yet ANOTHER installment of the Cait-n-Saby show! When last we left our obsessive pair, they were doing the same thing they're doing now! Tune in next week, when they dominate yet another scene!"[/i] There's really no way that some "universal time limit for posting" is going to be able to dodge what happened: You two in your own world. And other people (at least Vych) on the outside, scrambling to stay up with your scene-setting actions. But then again, what do I know - I just read when I can (I don't have time for 24 posts a day), and try to keep up after I come back from work and see yet MORE posts, stretching endlessly like a melodramatic director forcing me to read scripts. So do yourself a favor, and ignore what I've written, and don't care about what I think. Because it's obvious at this point that we are different people, and we like different things in a game, and I think that Catulle is damn good enough to wrangle our different styles together, and let us all get what we want out of the game. So Happy Gaming, all, and continue doing Your Thang, if that floats your boat, and I hope Vych continues doing Her Thang. [/QUOTE]
