Men'Thar-Glory to the Dragonknights

You wouldn't have been out, but I don't appreciate any of my players calling another players background "gay". I hate to do this, but you are not welcome in my game.

Slow down and read

It was in reference to the other 3 backgrounds that "I" wrote. Not the other players. reread the sentence. it was an apology for being late (because I scrapped the first 3 concepts I wrote and went with the one I posted).

at ease friend. take a deep breath.

At ease yourself, man. I didn't see the post from which that was quoted (and, in point of fact, I still don't). I was a little curious about what you thought was "gay" about any of the backgrounds already posted. I see that I was wrong (because I couldn't see the original quote). But I really don't appreciate the condescending tone of your reply. After that, I actually hope that Dralon sticks with his decision to not allow you, even if you weren't disparaging one of our BGs (which actually wouldn't have offended me too deeply, as I don't consider myself much of a writer).
Edit: I've found your quote now. I think that giving me **** for not having seen something you posted in another thread (to which I'm not subscribed) is just not what I'd call well thought out. So, please also take your own advice about slowing down.

Alas...

scout989,

My post was in reply to DralonXitz, not you. I am at a loss as to why you are so upset. I wanted to Dralon to relax and reread the post. I should have used some emoticons to get across that I wanted to work with him on this. :D

DralonXitz thought that in my post in the rogues gallery, located here, I was talking about other PC's. In my above post, I quoted my own post from the rogues gallery so that Dralon can see that I was not making statements about the other players.

During development I was unhappy with the favored soul/sorcer, fighter/wizard, and fighter/clerics I had made. I sumarily scrapped their decriptions and backgrounds and started over on my current fighter/marshal (which i stated intent to play in the first place, but tried to get creative). As you can read in my post, I make mention that the background I settled on, "is not wondrous by any means."

In all honesty I never expected my self deprication to offend so many. With any luck we can start over with each other and just enjoy the game. Again, scout, my original reply was intended for Dralon; not you. ;)

Actually, I signed back on to apologize for flying off the handle with you :heh:

Though I'm not trying to say that this makes it right, my emotions are flying all over the place right now- my dad is in the hospital having surgery, and it doesn't sound like it's going as well as it should.

Like I said, that doesn't make it right. I humbly beg your pardon for inappropriately venting my feelings on you- and I likewise hope you can forgive me and we can just enjoy the game.

Scout
 

Amen.

Sorry to hear about your dad. My wife has a family member in the hospital who is expected to die, so I can imagine how you feel (unfortunatly i have never met the woman, so i just feel for my wife).

Apology accepted, please accept mine for making my original reply to Dralon unclear. I will refrain from using the word gay from now on in any sort of context. :p

I understand, and apologize. And I have nothing against the word gay, I saw 3 Backgrounds, and there were exactly 3 other backgrounds up. If you had said dumb, written poorly, or a pathetic waste of english, I would have given the same response. It was nothing against you, I just don't allow players making fun of one another. However, since I was incorrect, I retract my previous statement. Good background btw.

Thank you for your kindness.

On another note, he's out of surgery now. It took about three hours longer than it should have, and his recovery will be tougher than expected, but he'll live :)

On still another note, we now have five people with characters and backgrounds and stuff. That means we're almost ready to begin :cool:

On one final note, my sister and two of my good friends are gay- but the word offends me not at all ;)
 

Ahhh it's feeling more comfortable in here now ;)

Sorry to hear about your respective relatives guys, hope everything goes as well as it possibly can.

Now, I'm going to throw a spanner in the works. :D In about a week and a half I'll be heading off on holidays with my family for about 3 weeks. I'm unlikely to be near a PC while away so can I be NPCd until I return? Just wanted to giv an early heads up rather than leave it until the last minute. I will be posting until the 24th of this month and back on the 8th of October.

Cheers
