Since when do members not matter in an RP board? Without members there would be no story. Without us there is no point to being here, as staff or as writers. You are sitting here acting like a spoiled child demanding their way, all the while only serving to prove your own inability to handle your position. If you lose your staffhood it will not be anyone's fault but your own.

Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

Go ahead and try to have a site when everyone leaves; do you really think anyone would want to stay at a site after some crazy staff member drove off the entire member base?

Hikaru with your post you just pretty much proved my point that you aren't cut out to be staff. You don't give a shit about the members under us. Also if we leave we would probably start a new rp. One that doesn't focus on key players like this. In fact you have already proved my point about only key players being involved truly in the story. Your post practically proved are case.

That's not my point. Yeah sure I only care about 'key players,' the ones that are important to the story. An RP is a collaborative story. A roleplayers job is to CONTINUE the story. If you care more about bitching, whining, reforming, and who the fuck is staff over that, then GTFO. See if I care. Also, I never said I was afraid to lose my staff position nor did I say anything about my staff position. I only said I was sick of you attacking me when at the time I hadn't done a fucking thing to be attacked.

But yeah. To me it will always be the story, not the members, only those who continue the story. And if they can't continue the story, fuck them. Stick to the members who can.

If you see that as bad, so be it. Matters little to me.

I do admit, even minor players matter. They contribute to the story as much as the major players. If you leave them behind, the major players end up with each other rather than to meet a new character and making some new "chapter". Minor characters are just as important with "user interaction" as well as the story line.

:/ I mean if it was just you and jeebus and a few other major characters, the entire thing would be so boring.

But what defines a major and a minor? I'm saying the ones that continue the story OVER bitching seeing it as more important and getting over the bitching for that goal are more important than everyone that just decides to stop RPing and go on strike and abandon the true point of a roleplayer.

That's a simple queston :/

Major characters have been there the entire time. Minors are just starting to join.

You mean members who continue YOUR story; an RP is a collaborative world not just a single story. We all have the right to create our own plots and not to join YOURS or the site's "official" events. Which are nothing more then the staffs personal plot arcs. This RP isn't about your characters, K2's, mine, Jeebus', or any single player's characters. It's about them as a whole.

ANND

Fuck major or minor characters; everyone has equal rights to the plot.

Again, I didn't say major and minor characters. I said major and minor players.

And this is the last post I'm posting in this topic. I'll be sticking to my job as a roleplayer, to continue the story. ANY story.

Only reason I haven't been doing so is because most of my characters are held up by K2 at the tournament, or Cap who went and hiatused. Asura, Fido, and Rin are sadly the only characters I have to RP with at the moment.

Oh yes cause all of this is bitching. You have heard it from the horse's mouth itself (Or pony lol). All we can do is bitch. We have brought serious ideas that you won't even consider.

The board is the structure for the rp. If the board caves in it is taking the rp with it. So understand that. Then your story will be no more. I doubt anyone is going to want to take another time jump or start on a different board.

If something is used Icly, and certain staff members complain about it, they cannot revoke their approval just because they want to.  This could be added to the rules perhaps, mainly because of certain issues.
