[Amanaduial the archer]

No! Aw man, Ransom!

Well, Im sorry to see you leave. Youre the best inquisitor Ive ever played with (Its an honest compliment- Ive played with, um, well i wasnt counting, but quite a few!)

But wait- does this mean you wont be doing Wolf Run?

[Shadow_Staar]

Aw, ransom, sorry to see you go!

Elenna, good thing you finished or else i would have set Blaze on you w/ her flamethrowers!

Goodbye, Ransom! Take a pull on the hellhorn for me if you get there before me!

This gives us another character to kill in the game, muah hah hah hah!

[Elenna]

Now THAT is a hot avatar, Cimm.

Bye, Ransom! IM me if I'm ever online.

Bulvard is going to get free, right? Then he and Elwyn can save the world.

[Cimmerian]

Glad you love it, Elenna! It was about time my avatar lived up to my legendary self. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Yeah, it's time big Bulvard and hellcat Elwyn did some stuff of reckoning.

[Shadow_Staar]

News FLASH!

To all whom it may concern - This RPG is considered as a beginners RPG. Thank you, very much.

Crimson Sword, which happens to be our third and most complicated endevour so far. Yes, to us teens it is. We have put a lot more effort into this one, as a team. But in the views of the respected forum founders, we don't know what we have been doing. What a shame!


Mithadan sure knows to hit me where it hurts the most.

Cimm,

Hi! I'm a mod here in the Shire. I don't think this is what Mithadan intended. As I understand it, the games were divided up randomly. This is how it was explained in temporary storage:

The RPGs in this forum have been moved to Rohan and The Shire. The selection of which RPG goes into which forum does not reflect upon the experience of the players or the complexity of the game, but rather has been done in a fashion so that a roughly even number of RPGs is moved into each of the two forums.

Hope this helps to clarify the problem.

sharon

[Cimmerian]

Thanks for your comcern...

...I have made my point at the very thread you refer, before I posted in our own RPG.

I hope that clears up my stance to you.

[Dwarin Thunderhammer]

Cimm,

The placement of this RPG is by no means an indication of your RPG skill or age. It was simply a place to put it. Since your rpg is of the older kind I will only interveine on your RPG if something goes blatantly wrong. Your RPG is not considered a beginner RPG. It is just a place to put it until it is finished.

Also may I look at it from a different angle. See that your RPG is an example of the dedication and hard work that should go into an RPG. We need such threads here. Please do not be offended at the placement.

In any case please drop by one of the Inns for a pint or two!

We're glad you have you and your crew Cimm.

[Cimmerian]

Hey, does being a 'mod' mean you can jump into any of the threads and make comments. Cool!

I might drop into the inns if I find the hint of 'game' in Role Playing game, here. So far it's been lacking from the new segrageted system of RPG forums. Alas.

G'night! Zzzzzz!

[burrahobbit]

No. Nor does being a regular person mean that you can be rude whenever you please. FWIW, it's only marginally ok to be rude when you have been harmed in some way. As it is you are just being silly. Mithadan said that he placed no judgement when he moved the various threads around. I've never known him to be a liar, so I am inclined to take him at his word. Be careful not to take personal offence where they is none meant at all.

[Cimmerian]

I apologise to the participants of this RPG for taking the discussion thread way off topic and incurring the wrath of the BD forum mods and 'automatic defense systems'.

[burrahobbit]

I'm not automatic!

P.S. I'm here to prevent that wrath from reaching you. You were about to get in trouble, but instead I am talking to you in a not angry fashion. I don't have anything to gain by doing that, I'd probably be happier if the RPGs were all deleted. This game being moved to the Shire is not a value call, don't take it that way. While I agree that it may not be the best place for it, it certainly isn't anything to get upset over. It still exists, doesn't it? Play your game and be happy to do so. Continure to enjoy it or you've wasted all of your time in it so far.

[Amanaduial the archer]

burra isnt automatic! Brief or bitter maybe, but never automatic! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I will only interveine on your RPG if something goes blatantly wrong

Please dont.

Cimmerian, PM me please. I cant PM you due to my computers messed up mess up.

YAY! I HAVE A PERSONAL TITLE!!!!!! OH YEAH!

[Elenna]

Actually, I too was a bit upset when I saw that this RP had been labeled "beginner", seeing as the complexity of the story makes it incredibly difficult.

And, burra, if Cimm is going to get in trouble for posting an opinion, then that needs to be addressed.

[Shadow_Staar]

This can't be placed in the Shire! THAT IS REDICULOUS!
This is by no means a newbie RP. I agree with you Cimm that Mith knows were to hit us. This post i am making will probably be deleted because I made a statement that might "offend" Mith.
Burra: You say play our game and be happy that we can play it. But, this is going into a Room that is heavily monitered. The Mod's are really changing everything around, and I don't think it is for the better. And Burra, most likely we will get in trouble...its inevitable.

Aman, CONGRATS on the personal title!!

ALSO MITH: DONT DELETE THIS POST!
SAME GOES TO ALL THE OTHER MODS THAT FIND IT AMUSING TO DELETE MY POSTS! DON'T DO IT!

[ December 06, 2002: Message edited by: Shadow_Staar ]

[Amanaduial the archer]

Thanks El!

And the Shire is the most beginner level. It is labled like that. It SAYS it on the description! But maybe just quietly PMing Mithadan would be a better course of action instead of in the place jumping in. Burra, Dwarin, Beth, Mithadan...my my, we must be going for a record. I dont think this is a Shire level RP, but it has been moving very slowly and not smoothly- this doesnt really level it out though. Cirith Ungol has also been put in the Shire.

[Mithadan]

The following was posted in the "Moving RPGs" thread in temporary storage:

The RPGs in this forum have been moved to Rohan and The Shire. The selection of which RPG goes into which forum does not reflect upon the experience of the players or the complexity of the game, but rather has been done in a fashion so that a roughly even number of RPGs is moved into each of the two forums.

and later, this:

The eight or so RPGs which were moved were created and operated under our old system. It would also be unfair to arbitrarily judge them and their participants by our new standards and rules.

This RPG is not going to be moderated any differently than it was before. There is absolutely no reason to take offense.

[Child of the 7th Age]

Hi, guys! This is in response to your concerns about moderating. I'm one of those 'terrible' mods in the Shire whom you suggest will be jumping up and down on your heads.

This is really strange because, for quite a while in the Freestyle Room, I used to dip into the Crimson Sword now and then because it was a good story. I imagine I'll continue to do that here. I guess I just don't see any problem. If you keep writing the good stuff you've been writing all along, there's absolutely no reason I'd have to stick my nose in here to do any "moderating." The only thing I'll be doing is enjoying what you've created.

You're all experienced writers who know the ropes. Why are we throwing bricks at each other? It just doesn't make sense.

Elenna, Amanaduial, Cimm.--I've known you from pms and other places on the board. Shadow__Staar, you don't know me but welcome to the Shire. I'm your neighbor in The Long Winter (along with Piosenniel), and also RPG in several other games.

Got to go.

Wow, we are going for a record on the number of moderators posting on here! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Hi Sharon.

[Shadow_Staar]

Hi Sharon!
well at least you seem like a nice mod...

[ December 06, 2002: Message edited by: Shadow_Staar ]

[Amanaduial the archer]

Shadow...

[Nevtalathiel]

Ok, this is the last straw. Cimm, I just can't take your "everyone's out to get me" attitude any more. That's not the only reason I'm saying this, there are a whole host more, but this has finally become too much. Feel free to kill off Tumnaooriel, I won't be posting here any more.

[Zohariel]

Umm...when you've all finished, I'd like to join.
But Cimm, I've heard plenty about you, so without being rude, I'll issue this statment:
If I am acceppted into this RP then I'm taking no c**p from you or anyone else. I'll RP in my way and if you don't like it, shove it.
Thank you!
My pro:
Name: Yenhofir Ogden.
Age: 22
Race: ½ Man, ½ Dwarf.
Appearance: Thick, long curly brown hair, blue eyes, thick cream jumper, purple cape, ankle length green velvet skirt, platform black boots, short but solid.
Personality: Rarely loses her temper, just laughs off arguments and insults. Placid and steady, she thinks hard before doing all except speaking. Consequently, she is tactless often, and can shoot her mouth off about all and everything under the sun. Is also incredibly gullible and will believe anything you tell her. Likes horses (she has a dapple grey pony named Cloud), nature and music. Hates braggers, men who are just looking for a pretty face.
History: Youngest daughter of Hermann Ogden, and Gwasin Greenskirt. Has been molly coddled since birth, then her father died and her step father came into the picture. Now she will do anything to get rid of him.

[Amanaduial the archer]

Its falling apart. This whole damn role play is falling apart.

Zohariel, glad to see you. This RP is really coming to its end though, whether its time has come or not; there are only four of us left. Actually methinks very soon there will be one less.

There are a number of characters who have been dropped; Gwyn, Aiwyn, Harolas, Culloth, and now Tumnaooriel for Gods sake. You can pick up any one of them but, no offence meant, Id rather you didnt bring in a new character at this stage, especially when there are so many passive ones. Its a pity, Yenhofir is a great character, but its too late really. Aireglin seems to have vanished as well.

If youve all finished French United Connection Kingdom-ing about, Im gonna post. If no one else intends to, it can be the last post. Im just sick of this entire business; its turned sour.

And I found out why this Role Play didnt get its deserved place in Rohan. Maybe some of you should have thought about that before you started on at Bethberry.

[ December 08, 2002: Message edited by: Amanaduial the archer ]

[Elenna]

Yes, we do seem to be missing some folk. And I don't know if we can finish this RP on our own. It has kind of gone sour.

[Shadow_Staar]

Yes it has...i guess we should all just finish it up.

[Zohariel]

Well in that case I guess I'll pass. Pity, it seems like such a cool rp.

[Amanaduial the archer]

Thanks Zohariel and mores the pity for us as well- Ive seen from your self name character on Cirith Ungol that you mean business.

Is anyone going to finish or shall I do a sumarising end post? Pity really, the last post should be done by the owner but, oh no look, he left as well.

[Elenna]

I think you should do it, Aman.

I regret to announce this is the end - I am going now. I bid you all a very fond farewell.

I feel the need to take a vacation from the Downs. It is no longer the fun community it used to be.

I hope I'll hear from you all, though.

[Shadow_Staar]

I also am leaving, I feel the same way elenna does.
The Barrowdowns, I feel, has turned somewhat political.

I'm sorry that I couldn't paticipate more,so Farewell fellow RPer's!

forever yours,
Shadow_Staar

[Amanaduial the archer]

Ill do it then. As soon as i find time- bin a bit busy lately.

Im sorry to hear youre going you two. I look forward to seeing you if yopu ever come back though [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[Amanaduial the archer]

There, Im done.

It was a pleasure playing with you all. Thanks for making this Role Play so great.

lol
Aman

[Child of the 7th Age]

Aman,

Good job! Let me talk to Mith about shifting this to Elvenhome as you requested on the game thread.
