That’s the funny thing about trolls: They love to do something horrible, then accuse you of doing something horrible when you call them on it.
I never turned the betrayal on you. I know I did that, and I truly felt sorry for doing that. I apologized and I shed tears over the phone. You know that. You were on the phone with me. The second time keeping a secret with Ben. So I fucked up all-together twice.
HOWEVER ARGUING OR DISAGREEING WITH YOU DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY MEAN I BETRAY YOU OR THAT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE. UNDERSTAND THIS.
POSTING ABOUT YOU DOES NOT COUNT AS BETRAYAL. LEARN HOW TO TAKE IT.

What the fuck is this? God damn fucking drama season? I'm really getting sick of every other thread having fucking drama in it. How 'bout this. Fucking respect each other! I am pretty sure these forums were made so that we could all just chill and have fun outside of the game. But lately its just drama drama drama drama drama spread all over these fucking forums. I'm pretty sure most of us that are on these forums (excluding sizzle and chocolate) are adults. How about we start acting like adults.
HOWEVER
If you guys are going to act like children then please by all means carry all petty discussions in steam chat or in one sub-forum, which should appropriately be named "Child-like discussions", that would not be updated on the ibis front page.
I do not mean to rag on you Walter or some of the others because you are my friends. But everytime I come in these forums, its drama. Everytime I enter the server, drama. Its getting worse on ZM and I am pretty sure its bad on the GG server as well. Its hard to have fun with people when they act retarded like this.
Any chance I can market this and stick it on HBO?
Anex is my hero.
**EDIT**
speaking of HBO and drama....
JOHNNY DRAMA FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There really needs to be an application for admin instead of just buying it. Maybe that would help eliminate some of the problems? Or at least have a psychological screening done before admin powers are given to you.
Really. I don't think admin should be given to just anyone.
edit: Your hero works at Burger King. How does that make you feel?
I think he just got a massive boner tbh anex.
Agreed, since a psychological screening seems excessive and are not that reliable (cue the link to the NASA Diaper-wearing, stalking Astronaut). Democratic voting doesn't seem to work picking admins either by my experience (cliques vote in their friends and take over the server).
I think an easier way would be to require several months of payment in advance. Let's say three months. If you break the admin rules at any point and your admin powers are removed, you do not get your money back.
At least with this system, we can get one to two months of good behavior out of some of the admins since they fear losing $20 plus. Zero also takes less risk losing revenue to support the server.
As Hobo points out, money can be used to keep people honest.
And I thought you and Holy were making all those obsessive threads because you didn't know better. Serves me right for giving you the benefit of the doubt. Nice try with the guilt-stricken attempt to not seem like a hypocrite.
Anyway, I agree with you. This kind of stuff doesn't belong on the forums. While I'm tired of seeing so much drama revolving around Chelsea, it's not surprising to see a bunch of young guys fawning and headbutting for the attention of an attractive young woman. Her reaction to it is anything BUT ladylike though, which causes most of the drama.
Walter, as I've told you in the past, you have to rise above it. Part of being an adult is learning the wisdom of what battles to choose. This battle is not worthwhile. Ignore it and move on to something more important.
Take a lesson from the Marines.

People should also take note that things said in private should stay in private. This ancient adage rings true even online.
