(IR) 2nd ooc-thread of the 5th IR (open)

[The Forsaken One]

And I'm thinking to report mine and his posts as offensive to forum rules and regulations, but that would get the thread closed and that'd be kinda silly.

Btw Creamy will pass by here later tonight and he's prone to have some harsh words for both of us as is his duty as forum administrator

Btw James, 1 more whine and I'm picking the Tharquis empire and the Tharquis dominions.

Then I'll have over a 1000 IC and almost more then double that of any of you. Then you can start complaining about overpowered, unbalanced or anything.

And cream same goes to you, 1 more thing about me powercreeping and I'll show you what a real power creep action is.

Picking the tarquish or the celestial imperium. Both with around a 1000 IC.

So don't get me started with those sad rants.

Ok... now I'm done with my rant of my own.

I'm just agitated by him having to take this to a personal level.

And the fact that hes acting all like he knows everything about the rules while he for crying out loud doesn't even know about being able to take 10 on a skillcheck.

Wtf is he even attempting to argue there then?

Everything he says is complete and utter as soon as it regards the rules or anything remotely associated.

And his small perspective how things happen all at the same time and there is no other way. As well as wizards not even being able to know different spells then as listed in an example spellist.

rofl.

That guy is so full of it's probably drooling out of his eyes, perhaps that's why he misread the rules and my post and faction description 10 times.

Takes a deep breath, so that just had to vent there for a second. My appologies to anyone annoyed or insulted. But this totally retarded crap hes spamming and the way hes doing it annoys the crap out of me.

And if he treated me the same way on a different point he'd be plainly discriminating me, yeah, in the racist kinda way. And this is even a game so hell, I dont even want to know how he handles that stuff in real life. God, if you can't even tollerate others peoples faction claims and get that worked up about it.

lol.

And his argumentation, lol, I'm saving his and mine posts for some amusement this weekend at my gaming group.

I am not denying any of this (not agreeing either, I have every intention of keeping my own opinion out of it).
So supposed you are right it still has no use to get insulted because someone else has a strong sense how the game "should" work in his opinion.
You are both exagerating the whole matter until it devolves into personal insults and attacks.
I do not know who started it but now they are here. Call me old fashioned if you like but that is not what I call fun. Your agitation is prefectly understandable (as is James not liking your faction) but you are both reacting to it so extreme one might think real lives depend on it.
If this is the way oog discussions are handled in this kind of game I will have to speak with Serpenteye again before I decide to even work out more for my faction. Can't be a fun game like this.

Glad to see you're the one with sense here

(as is James not liking your faction)

But do you seen anyone whine about anyone elses faction then mine?

I've fot 4 people chasing my tail already on this one.

Is it just that you people (james creamsteak zelda and pauxus) just don't like my faction and adore the rest or...?

I don't seem myself commenting in a negative way about anyone elses faction, what gave you people the pressing need to start criticizing me on mine?

In the end it doesn't matter about the write up, SE will make them all balanced in some way. Why is it so hard to trust in that?

 

[Bugbear]

I have to agree with Radiant on this. Chill out you two. If you have to fight, take it to E-mail, or if you must do it in public, Nothingland.

Personaly though, I don't see why you are fighting. Just agree to disagree.

For the sake of argueing, and I'm not known for being "the bigger man".

Don't get me wrong, I can get what you mean. I had about the same situation tabletop gaming then everyone was screaming fire and brimstone because of my armies that have been built with the same rules as everyone else's. Maybe they did not get that the fluff text to your faction won't actually make it more or less powerfull, maybe they just hate it so much that it has to be criticised from every corner.
The point is that by allowing yourself to be personaly insulted by this the whole situation just gets worse.
I have been reading this whole thread in one part since I had to catch up and from that perspective it is frightening how fast this discussion degraded into a trade-off of veiled (and later open) insults.
I think the point is very simply (sound of alarm clocks, now I voice an opinion, proably a big mistake): You can hate your factions as much as you like, it's pretty much fine since you can actualy go to war with each other to settle the matter. Just as long as you can think above the fluff and believe that the DM will make all the factions balanced in power. And honsetly if someone does not trust that the DM is up to run the game he should not play. No amout of complaining will make a game a worthwile experience if you do not think the DM is fair.
(again, this is not aimed at anyone specific who might read this, just what I think if the matter).

ps: As a last note I would normally not intrude into a dicsussion like this since I have no right to but I believe it will spoil the fun for everyone (or at least me) if it goes on like that. At least if it can not be settled before the game actualy starts.

Good lord. THAT was fast.

yep, just realized what a waste of time my posts have been since it's been way too late anyway.
*sigh* I really don't think any of this was neccesary.
