I hate feeling like this. It's very nonconstructive.

by Fluff Sat Jul 11, 2009 5:08 pm

When I get to Duke, I'll be about an hour and a half in the car away from Eternity.

ETERNITY: I plan on it, believe me. Of course, you can guess how well such plans of mine often work out. Maybe if I can manage to get a driver's license.

by Arthmael Sat Jul 11, 2009 5:34 pm

I hate talking to arrogant people, they're too stubborn, and when they see that you are capable in doing something they can't. It's as if they find you to be useless and turn their back on you for no reason.

People like that are the ones who don't want to improve, and hate other people who try to get better. -_- I don't want to say anything mean since I might have 'some' regret later, but they need a serious overhaul on life.

I'm in a funk of sorts, I suppose you could say. I vented about it to someone, but they haven't gotten back to my message yet. But yeah, I'm just a bit bummed out currently, though I should be happy. I just want this feeling to go away.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sat Jul 11, 2009 11:30 pm

I know how that goes, Lunar. Trust me.

I think we're in the same boat, it really sucks when there isn't anyone around to really listen.

by Guest Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:54 am

I'd like to say, I'm still offended. The siggy says it all. I'ma keep it forever.

by **Fate Flyer** Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:56 am

Onenitedrive was officially warned for that, just so know, Misery. Please, remove that from your signature. Please.

by Guest Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:58 am

Alright, I updated it to reflect your input. Is that sufficient?

by **Fate Flyer** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:00 am

Misery, if anyone breaks the rules, they get warned. In fact, if anyone breaks the rules, they actually first get an UNOFFICIAL warning first. So, I actually did more to onenitedrive than I would to any other member.

Now please remove that from your signature.

by Guest Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:05 am

One could argue though that being in a position of power, the consequences of his actions should potentially be more severe though. Especially when you take into account the fact that they, of all people, should know and adhere to the rules more than any of us.

In addition, I'm uncertain of what's wrong with my tagline. Is it the 'slap on the wrist' part? That's the only part of it that I can see that's not actually a true statement or an adequate representation of actual events.

I'd be happy to edit it more, I'm just not sure what's wrong with it.

by Dio the Awesome Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:07 am

*Facepalm*

Seriously guys, I go to sleep for 6 hours and this is what I come back to? The thread locked before I got a chance to say my piece, so I won't shoot off into a rant here but:

I am behind Fate, Onenitedrive, and the rest of the Mods on this board over 9000%.

EDIT: So that I stay on topic, I complain on the fact that people are complaining to much, and should just chill.

by **Fate Flyer** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:09 am

This is the third time I'm going to have to ask you to remove that from your signature, Misery. In my original thread concerning all of this, I had said that I'd appreciate all your compliance with this. I need you to just please be mature about this and let it go. Just let it go. If you can't, then I'm afraid I'm going to have to warn you unofficially. If you still won't remove your signature, then you will be warned for real. I am giving you a heads-up here. I really just need everyone to act like adults here and just take it and leave it. I don't want to discuss this any further. Everything that needed saying was said.

I'm actually still trying to figure out what's wrong with my signature. It's not libelous or slanderous. In fact, it's somewhat factual, and accurate, or failing those, my personal opinions on the matter. Are we not allowed to post quotes in our signatures? Are we not allowed to express opinions in our signatures? I'm failing to see what board rules I'm violating? Or am I being singled out for speaking out about an event in which a moderator called me a name?

(In order to comply with your wish, assuming that it does have a valid reasoning behind it, I'll remove it from my signature temporarily while we have this talk)

by Eternity Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:17 am

Complaint:

- - I hate seeing the little disputes, especially between Misery- who I found I like quite a bit and can be fun to talk to- and Fate- who is a sweet and smart woman who's been the creator of this great place for the all of us.

And Fate, I'm sorry about everything; I imagine you are under some deal of stress.

*hugs you both*

I love you two...

Also complains because I've got a horrifying migraine of some great proportion.

She's a nicer woman that I. I'm glad she beat me to this post, cuz I was not going to be so nice. I'll be back tomorrow when hopefully things have reverted back to normal.

I just don't want to see you holding on to this subject, which I've asked to let go. It's just not very nice to FOG for you to be displaying so publicly, and I apologize if your feelings were hurt and for the remark. I know that you don't want to be reminded of something that made you so angry each time you visit here. We don't either. It's just a bit hurtful to be showcasing, and is borderline disrespectful, if not is so. I respect you Misery. I hope and wish that you feel the same way still about myself and FOG. If you do, then I'm sure you can understand why I'd ask for you to remove it. You're a great guy, especially from everything I've heard. I just want us to be able to accept all of this, take it in, and move on. Smile

*hugs Eternity* Thank you, darling.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:26 am

I had no idea you're a woman, Diodri... ^o_o^ We learn something new every day.

Also, yeah. Eternity, I totally agree with you. It's hard seeing my boyfriend and a good friend go head to head, but these things happen. I'm just trying to remain neutral. I'm also hoping no one thinks any less of any one else for all of this arguing.

by Inerio Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:32 am

I still can't help but feel like I've inadvertently started this whole thing.

I complain that my laptop is acting up on me. ): The CD compartment keeps opening for no reason.

Fate, to be quite honest I'm sure I'll hold on to the subject regardless of whether or not it's in my signature or not. Are we not allowed the freedom to hold on to subjects even when you ask us to let them go?

I actually don't really mind being reminded of it, because, if anything, I find it somewhat darkly amusing more than an affront to me. I'm uncertain of what you mean by 'showcasing', and in addition uncertain of how my signature is more or less disrespectful than any other quote out there.

Unfortunately, and I do note that this is probably a flaw with me rather than with anyone else, but I don't understand why you'd ask me to remove it, other than the fact that exposes a side of Fog that you don't particularly wish to have exposed. I had assumed that it wasn't though, and that, given that I'm not making crude jokes or violating any other rules that I know of, that I'd be allowed to speak freely on these boards.

Again, if it's simply that there are no rules concerning this and you're just singling me out, that's fine, but I'd like to call it what it is, if that's alright?

by **Fate Flyer** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:34 am

No, no! Don't worry about a thing, Inerio. It was I, after all, who suggested, before hearing these complaints, that you make a new thread after the original one got way off topic.

I complain that it's officially Sunday.

Inerio, I think, if anything, all you did was expose a larger issue that had been festering for a while. You certainly shouldn't blame yourself at all for any of this, and especially not any of my interactions with Fate or any of the other mods here.

It's up to you if you want to hold on to something so negative. When I asked to let it go, I wasn't referring to in your mind, obviously lol. I simply just mean to let it be and to stop discussing it.

I hardly believe you were exposing something. I think that's actually probably something that everyone would already know or assume. Even us Admins and Mods are people. Even we can get carried away. Even we can get warned or banned. Yep. It happens. I don't think that's a secret at all.

The main reason I asked you to remove it was because I found it hurtful personally and disrespectful, and after all, our first Universal Rule here is "Be respectful and civil." So, that's really what I'm looking for in this situation. Respect and civility.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:38 am

Inerio, don't feel bad. You may have started the threads and participated in them, but it wasn't just you that contributed. A bunch of people- me included for the sexual interest thread- kept it going off topic. Even if you'd stopped, it probably would have continued. =3

by Eternity Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:43 am

I COMPLAIN THAT I'M TOTALLY SLOWER THAN EVERYONE ELSE.

-- -- - --= - -- - a\g-=-0-0

WTF

Holy shit, Misery: You're the red-headed guy Kathryn be loving all up on in her old siggy and pic?

Awww I envy your beautimous red hair XD LOL

I would argue about your definition of 'respectful'. However, as it was a rule written by you, and by your definition my signature would violate said rule, I will, as I noted earlier, remove it. Thank you for pointing out which rule you felt my signature was violating.

by Guest Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:44 am

If it helps at all, Mis, you have the most manly beard ever XD

EDIT: Um....I think I hit the wrong button when I was trying to do a quote....Sorry Misery O_o;; - Gunny

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:45 am

I know! I'm sorry! I didn't think most people would remember it! ^;_;^

by **Fate Flyer** Sun Jul 12, 2009 1:48 am

That's fine. We can't agree on everything. Thank you though for both understanding and consenting to it, Misery. I really appreciate it very much. :]

XD Red hair is the best hair in the world. SAVE THE REDHEADS. Shocked
