That's not my intent here. I'm trying to convey my message, my intentions, and my concerns. Hopeuflly I'm better at it this time around than the initial post. I always was poor at conveying messages with words ... something I'll have to work harder at.))I will concede that both of your points, Dontella - and Xerber and Evertide (whom I really, really, really hope punctuates. Please?) - have merit and make sense and I do not disagree with them. Honestly, though, it is not the CoC that really irks me, or, as much, the conflicting of settings. If a Faerunian character has a way to,  logically and logistically, plane/world jump to Oerth, sure. But it does bother me that a Faerunian character is hardly ever seen in the Faerunian room.It does bother me that certain rooms, such as the Rotunda and the Great Bazaar, aren't even used, or are rarely used. I enjoy RPing in the Rotunda, but is my fear - perhaps rightly so or perhaps paranoid'ishly not - that if those rooms aren't used for the worth that they are, they're going to be lost. Why would anyone want to put work into a room that isn't used?I'm sorry to Xerber or Dontella or anyone else that thought I came across as condescending, conniving, hypocritical, or trying to change their gaming beliefs/styles/philosophies. I can only hope you won't hold a mistake such as this against me.If I came across as such, my sincerest appologies.That was not my intent. What my intent was is to draw attention to the value of the other rooms. I did not intend that one character could never, ever, ever go to another realm and play. That's not, of course, my choice.It's just that it *kills* me to think that we might lose these rooms because of lack of attendance; rooms that people, I think, could come to know and love as much, if not more, as the CRT.I don't see this discussion as going anywhere but further, rapidly, and catastrophically downhill. My words came from frustration, which came from anger; I should've known better than to post in such an emotional state. But, we're all human externally, no?But, obviously, this is going nowhere. We have our likes, our dislikes, and our preferences and, with my bad foot set forward, it looks like I did very little to change anything, save to make myself look like a fool and push others further away from anything I hoped to discuss.My  appologies for any  stresses or angers that I've caused anyone here. Hopefully, in the future, we can look past this. And, even more hopefully, you can look past the immature emotions that run rampant within my mind and through my fingers to see where and why I was coming from during this stance.Without a further waste of anyone's energy, emotions, or time, I bid everyone good bye, good luck, and happy roleplaying.And my appologies for riling people up, yet again. I was wrong.((Disclaimer: In no way is the above meant to be any attempt at a guilt trip, pity-me attempt, or any other negative-emotion creator. That's not my intent here. In short: I yield. I always was poor at conveying messages with words ... something I'll have to work harder at))</blockquote>
