I agree with Titus, if you feel this way you should stop the fleeting. Your strengths are definitely in story writing, not constantly trying to be on top of OOC arguments about fleet battles. If you weren't always having to argue semantics in the OOC forum you'd be a lot happier, in my opinion.

See you around I hope.

Try some new rpers perhaps - - I welcome the chance to engage you - - - ypou and I have never matched wits, I enjoy a challange.

Ok, I'm back now.

I originally planned to stay away until Saturday, but that seemed unnecessary now since I've already thought about it adequetly to state my intentions.

I will of course stay here and continue to roleplay at The Rebel Faction - I'll be here until it ends, I hope, and a change of attitude is not about to alter that.

What I feel perhaps went wrong with the previous incident, and my attitude towards TRF in general, was just that I was acting perhaps overly competitive. Such attitudes have been seen at TRF before, generally by people who were disliked. Maybe I felt more justified because I was playing the good guys, but at the same time, it was causing unnecessary problems.

So what I intend to do is tone it down a bit, and just stick to running GC by itself. There is no need to spend every moment of my time here working directly to attacking, disrupting, or otherwise trying to defeat TNO. Perhaps it would be better to bring more focus on to the internal workings of the Coalition and it's characters. That is not to say I wouldn't compete with the other factions, or that my absolute dislike for TNo and by desire for them not to exist has gone away, merely that if I will interact with others I will make sure to do so first through contact with them and discussing the details, be more careful and do less to interrupt the writing of others or what they want to do.

I will keep running GC, and my Jedi character will continue doing what he's doing - I will be keeping in mind to be considerate and careful when he is involved in roleplays with other factions - and I'll just lower my expectations a bit and everything should be fine. Maybe I was just taking it all a little too seriously. It's just a game, no need to get worked up etc.

Thank you for your time.

*and there was much rejoicing*

(yay.)

I'm glad you have decided to stay, Dolash.

I have to say that I was in your shoes as well. What you were feeling was the same with me months ago when I tried to stop the GC from intruding in our "space" by cheating and thus sunk me down to a level of disgrace-- reason being because I was the sole writer for the BDE and was juggling too many RP's both here and on SWT.

Because of this, I had to force myself to take a step back, take time off, and catch up on what needed to be addressed: my workload in RL, RL itself, and time that needed to be devoted to my board: SWTales.

And unfortunately, I still can't return to RP yet in the Battlegrounds because of the EZboard attack which has wiped out a lot of our RP's on SWT, causing me and Sam to spend the majority of our time there.

But yeah, try not to be overcompetitive. Concentrate on your characters instead. I tried to be overcompetitive and ended up cheating in order to "get the upper hand."

When I return to RPing in the Battlegrounds, I will try to tie up any loose ends the BDE is still involved in.
