Yeaaah, except your "Mislink" was a joke and a mockery of everyone who called you out for the picture.

Reliable, sure, but what fun is it when compared to the two options?

You sound like an asshole

I've PMed you twice, with a six month gap in between, and gotten a response neither time. The first time, I was just trying to contact you as a person, and it had nothing to do with this thread. I suppose it's easier to call me out in public and make me look like some kind of obsessive, inbox-spamming stalker than it is to just click a "reply" button.

More on the subject of this thread. I would like to discuss my ban again. It's been over a year--nearly two. My original reason for banning was the dirty images in my photobucket which weren't even linked to--and this was only supposedly worthy of a 30 day anyway. The reason it was made permanent was my supposed intention to hack TK, which we've been over a dozen times and I don't think anybody really buys it.

Look, I'm no more dangerous to TK now than I ever was. I'd like to point out the six years without any behavioral infractions before my sudden, outright, permanent removal over questionable reasons.

The nearly two-year ban is quite a sentence in and of itself, which I'd like to believe covers whatever crimes I am guilty of. So I am asking that the ban be changed from permanent to 18 months, a period which has already passed, so that I can enter.

I wanted to keep this to PMs due to the obvious shitstorm that will likely arise.

My hunch is that TK is littered with isolated, excommunicated nerds (present company excluded of course) who are so terrified of making rivals or enemies in real life (or already have such an abundance of them), that they'll stick to boring, mundane interactions that provide them with 'friends' or 'associates,' instead of rocking the boat a little for some interesting role-play.

This is also the reason, I suspect, that there seems to be an abundance of neutrally oriented characters; nobody seems interested in really making friends, or enemies ... they just want to live out their fantasy as the character instead of playing out any context for him or her. If there was a giant IC war, and everyone had to participate, I guarantee you'd have most people sitting on the sidelines as 'neutral.' -_-

I don't think we've played together, have we? I'm really tooting my own horn here, but I pride myself on playing a character that doesn't get along with a lot of people, and in fact, I go out of my way to make him antagonistic in many situations. Simple conversations turn into a verbal sniping match, or escalate into things being thrown around and broken. My character is purposely and willfully nasty to just about everyone he meets (It's a great way to scare off the 'ADD' players and shut down any 'getting to know you' time-waster RP with new chars who won't be there tomorrow or even in an hour).
And if people have the balls to stick around and god forbid, even retaliate or reciprocate my character's bullying, bad temper, and general spoiled golden boy disposition, then we have an interesting RP on our hands. (Incidentally, this doesn't often happen. The play just goes like:

<Devin> "Insults, derides, sneers."
<Random 'ho> *icey blue eyez water and she starts to cry becuz devin is so meen and she doesn't kno why cuz she's so nice and placid to everyone*
<Devin> "Scorns Random 'ho as a witless ninny and tells her to get lost and go play with dolls or something"
<Random 'ho> "Tells devin he's so mean" *Runs away crying then shows her tits to some other random dumbass so devin sees what he's missing"

And so on and so forth. In short, I'm so sick of wussy characters who can't take a bit of an IC verbal beating. It's like they suddenly think that Mr spoiled asshole will relent and take pity on them or something and they'll live happily ever after. BOOORING.)

Either way, it's a win/win situation for me, since I really enjoy IC verbally bullying other characters whose players are too dumbshit to do anything creative with the scenario and are really just there for some piss-weak romance/cyber plot because they saw the word 'Prince' in my profile.

I'll acknowledge that it's not everyone's idea of a fun time to have some asshole IC insulting you and treating you like crap at every turn, but there's no denying that Mr spoiled asshole generates conflict, and it's the conflict between characters that makes them interesting, just like someone said earlier.
Conflict doesn't always have to be killing, brawling, raping, buring, pillaging et cetera. In fact, I find much of that sort of thing a bit overdone and repetitive. I totally don't mind if say, my character insults the wrong person and they smack him in the mouth. This has happened a lot, and I like to think that other players find it fun and satisfying. OH OH! Which brings me to something I HATE.

I hate antagonistic characters that never seem to get their come uppance. I'll use my char as an example of an antagonistic character. We have an arrogant, snobby 'too good for you' character who treats most people around him like servants or dirt. He's verbally abusive, abrsaive, and has a massive sense that he's entitled--no, supposed to be this way. So he goes around pissing people off, and sometimes these people are carrying weapons, or just plain won't put up with his bad manners. So one day, he bitches at the wrong person, and suddenly, someone's swinging a sword or a fist at his head.

Now with my character, I've got a massive sense of 'fair play'. If I've been giving someone shit, I'll let them punch my character, or hit him with a sword (provided it's not going to wreck anything). I fully understand that sometimes, the way my character acts is going to get him a smack in the face or worse, so I let it happen. It's often funny, and spawns more interaction, so it's good for RP.
BUT! The people I HATE are the ones who act just like I do with their chars (insulting, pissing people off etc), but when someone goes to put them in their place IC or lash out because they can't take that shit anymore, the 'Asshole' character magically dodges everything thrown at them, counters, fights, wins, comes out on top and just keeps acting like a fuckface. ALL THE TIME.
Yeah, I get it that some characters could fend off an attack, but it's bullshit when it happens every single time and so they avoid consequences for being an asshole. That's boring RP, and I find myself not wanting to play with morons like that who just won't accept consequences for their IC actions, and just want to 'win' all the time and look good. Their characters don't evolve much past that "piss people off, fight them, win" dynamic, generally, so it's a waste of time playing with them.

Sounds fair enough to me.
Thank you for your help (:

I made an Ork and brought him into the Pub to burn the place once.

Everyone loved it.

Warboss.

Nevar forget.

19:29:58 RagnarokWarforged does want an arm cannon



19:30:57 [RagnarokWarforged] One that shoots red lasers

19:31:11 [Bro] Hm. I could do that.

19:31:19 [RagnarokWarforged] They HAVE to be red lasers

19:31:30 Robert exits from this room

19:31:34 [Bro] It'd have to be a Scorching Ray, and you'd have to actually hold still for the 8 hours a day it'd take for me to devise it, though.

19:31:36 Samson enters this room

19:32:01 [RagnarokWarforged] Cause the goodguys always shoot red lasers

19:32:03 Samson gets dressed, since all the other cool kids are doing it.

19:32:22 lapinenoir enters this room

19:32:43 [Terness] Samson is a cool name.

19:32:51 [Bro] It is a cool name.

19:32:58 Samson noogies Terness, "Thank you."

19:33:08 [Bro whispers to Samson] Got it. Where do you want me to mail it?

19:33:16 Terness yaarrrghsdsghg.



19:33:30 [RagnarokWarforged] You'd have to reinstall it every day? Screw that shit. I'll just whack fuckers with a maul.

19:33:54 [Nephandus] he only has to install it once.

19:34:10 Lurkdom enters this room

19:34:16 [Nephandus] Oooh, maybe if you had a wang slot in your arm, you could put wands of Scorching Ray in there.

19:34:21 [Lurkdom] hrroaaargh

19:34:25 [Samson] ......

19:34:26 [Nephandus] ... wand.

19:34:28 [Samson] A wang slot?

19:34:42 [Bro] ... a wang slot in your arm?

19:34:49 [Icon] ...

19:34:51 [Icon] hahahah

19:34:52 [Bro] What the hell is wrong with you, Ix? =<

Ship

Sounds reasonable enough. We'll call it 10, which since it's already been 2 will end on the 12th.

Dalton, please stop PMing me every time I post to this thread; it's not very endearing.
