I'm not venting to the gamers here anymore - I've learned that to do so makes people angry with me in one way or another - particularly when I'm not even talking about their own actions or it even doesn't have anything to do with the actual game itself. (Go figure?) I'll vent to my good friends but otherwise no one in the game, because there always seems to be some personal issue that comes up out of it.<br/><br/>I'm instituting the rule that all abilities not covered in your bio need to be cleared here in the OOC before someone posts about using it in the game. The sensing thing may have seemed not worthy of noting to some people, but I want everything fair and understood by all.<br/><br/>Other than that, I'm leaving things open for discussion. If anyone brings up something for the game and asks me about it - either here in the OOC or via PM or messenger (which is where the drama with ShadowMaiden happened) please understand that I'm going to give you my opinion. It is not a personal attack - It is a discussion.<br/><br/>The same is true if I contact you about something in the game - it's not bullying you into taking sides, it's not pressuring you or attacking you - it is looking for your opinion. If I didn't value your opinion, I would not talk to you about these things. Call me anal, but I don't want people holding complaints in and then making the game crumble when they decide to leave instead of discussing things. I think it is far better to state my opinion and ask what everyone else thinks rather than to just put my foot down on everything... I hope to find a happy medium that makes everyone at least relatively happy.<br/><br/>If either of these ideas bother you, please feel free to leave the game now *rather than dropping on us after your character is needed in the game. Thank you.
