Well, to accept in Havoc takes a lot of work. To accept here is begging to be ignored.
Nowhereman, another great promo! 
Snarf, please, no more shoots. If you need someone to bounce ideas off of for an angle, send me a PM or IM me. I actually may have some ideas to talk through, if you're interested.
Y'know what? Just fuck the whole thing then. Any angle I agree to is gonna fall apart or be one-sided somehow. So to hell with it.

Not true. But, since the only angle you'll agree to involves making yourself look good while simultaneously fucking over anyone and everyone you can, I guess it's a good idea for you to leave for a while.
I haven't said anything much about your little "shoot" promo mostly because I was more interested in seeing where it led to. My original opinion was that you either had a lot of sack to do what you did, or you were just being a prick for prick's sake. Looks like the latter was true.
You don't care about this, but you should know that your little temper tantrum...excuse me, "shoot" angle...didn't screw me or PenWing over as much as it screwed people like Charlie and MisterJLA and Sneaky Bunny and Grimm and a few other people. You pissed on a good number of people and the sad thing is you don't care. Here's a little secret for you - PenWing and I aren't the only people who write these things. We're not the only ones who decides who gets pushed and what storylines get pushed. Doc and Grimm are involved. Interesting that you were very careful not to mention them, eh?
The fact is, you thought your tantrum would turn people against me and PenWing. Not only were you wrong about that, but you only managed to piss people off with your whining and stupidity. Y'know why? Because PenWing and I bust our asses for this forum and everyone knows it. We constantly put ourselves out there to help anyone who needs it and everyone knows it. There isn't a contributor, old or new, who can say that we haven't offered to help them or offered advice when asked. Can you say the same?
No. You can't. You've done a grand total of jack shit around here. You post sporatically at best. You had four promos during your title reign. Your big match - your Saved By The Bell Match and Prom Promo - were done mostly by me. And you know this. You were content to spin your wheel and get things handed to you. But rarely did you actually contribute, And you have the fucking nerve to think that you can step to me, make accusations at me, make demands at me, and that I'd just allow them to stand indefinitely?
Fuck you, pal. You carry your share of the load or don't bitch when things don't go your way. You don't have the right to whine about anything because you rarely contributed anything. And for you to ask everyone to join you in your little botched coup was as much a slap in their faces as it was to mine. So take your whiny bitch-self and find something else to do. When you're ready to step up and actually contribute something, we'll be here. But I'm damned if I'm gonna let you run at the mouth and pitch these little fits because you think that we (PenWing, Me, Doc, Grimm, NWM, or ANYONE) somehow owe you something.

Yep. You were my first major feud. And, when it started kicking into high gear, who was the one doing the promos? Oh yeah...me. That's who.
Run along, Snarf. You don't have a leg to stand on and you know it.

Which reminds me. Funny that you've had all the time in the world to bitch and moan. I offer up an open challenge to anyone who wants it and you can't seem to find the time to write a promo accepting it. Your way or the highway, right Snarf? I think you should go with highway.

Maybe I stepped on toes with the shoot promo. But honestly, what the fuck else was I supposed to do. I had an idea for an angle, I ran with it. Oakley pulls shit out of his ass all the time and usually just gets a slap on the wrist.
The reason I stopped posting in our initial feud was that no matter how many promos I posted, things were still very one sided. Why bother when I know what the outcome's gonna be?

Oh, and I may post sporadically, but I do post. Which is more than can be said for people who are continuosly put in matches, like TK, Stareena, Sneaky, Wednesday....
And to be honest, I never even knew you had a challenge till I saw it in the kayfabe thread. I just skim the Havoc threads because there are too many long ass promos nowadays.

You do what everyone else does. You talk to whomever you want to feud with. If you have concerns about the way something is being done, you talk to one of us. If not me or PenWing, then Grimm or Doc. You didn't step on toes, you ran over a lot of people without even realizing it.

There hasn't been a single time that Oakley's pulled something out of his ass that directly screwed up another person's storyline. The most that he's done is put himself in a position where one of us has to PM him and make him change some part of his promo.

I'm not going to apologize for how other people vote. I vote once. I don't use alt IDs. I don't like that some people do use them, but I can't stop that. Believe me, I tried at Wargasms - I'm sure Rob thinks I'm some kind of lunatic/pain in the ass for the demands I was making as far as the voting went.

Those people are used when we need to set up a match that moves a storyline along. TK and Wednesday haven't been in title contention for a while. We've been pushing people who actually post with some regularity. Stareena and Sneaky fill a need in the Women's Division - you're not seriously complaining about the Women's Division, are you?

So you skim the Havocs? I have no idea how to properly respond to that. I really don't. Considering that THAT'S where the action is and THAT'S where things take place, I'd think you'd want to read the Havocs. But that's just me...

We have two women who participate with any regularity. It seems silly that you and others should put effort into something like that for such a relatively small niche.

Honestly, I don't want to read a novel about Oakley's feud with the Killer, or how an alt id, like any of our luchadores, is gonna give the business to another alt id like Two Ton Tommy.

You know Snarf, I put a lot of effort into the promos and matches I write. It doesn't matter whether it's for me or someone else, I still treat it like my own. I put effort into Meeko and Lor, and others, because the people who participate in this forum, and the girls I write things for, appreciate my work. They read this forum to be entertained, and all the feedback I've gotten tells me that I have succeeded. I have worked with just about everyone who posts here on one angle or another since I've taken a more active role in booking. That includes you. I just lost the Cheese title I won from you to Joe Mama. Joe Mama didn't write that match. I did. I didn't cry about losing the poll. I sat down, and I wrote one of the best matches, if not the best match I have ever written for this forum. And for now, I have stepped aside so that someone else can get a shot at the title. That doesn't mean I won't invoke my rematch clause. I will, when the time is right. But for now, someone else is going to earn that spotlight of number one contender and quite possibly Big Cheese Champion. That's the way it works. If you want to step out, fine. When you put in effort, you wrote some great stuff. We all know what you are capable of, and any one of us would be willing to work with you on an angle. Ultimately, your fate is in your own hands. Impress the voters, and you'll win. Do nothing, and you won't. It really is that simple.

I appreciate the kind words. And you're absolutely right. But my main beef has been when the match write-ups DO NOT reflect the voting results. This has happened to me twice, and no one ran it by me. So I bring it up in the shoot promo to get a little heat, thinking "Hey here's something new, maybe this might prove interesting". Everyone says post something, so I did, and I get blasted for it. So, to make it short, I'm confused and upset.

So, you're basically saying that you don't care about anyone's work but your own. That fits. You might not like Oakley's angles, but at least he's working on them. And he's willing to ask and take advice from other people. Other people here work for what they get. Your shoot promo didn't work because there was nothing entertaining about as well as broke down the work others had put so much time and effort into. You don't feel you're getting a fair shake? How about PMing me or Grimm about your feelings? Instead, you let continue to piss you off instead of trying to do something about it. You have no right to put down anyone's promos or angles.

The point is to work with people and not against them. You can influence write-ups by doings some work on them yourself. We've always said that voting is only a guideline and that we take the liberty to write up matches in ways that will make them more interesting or further a storyline. If you're not working on a storyline and not participating in a write-up, your character looses his voice and is relegated. Want it to change? Do some work.

Uh, no. I don't care about really, pointlessly long drivel. It used to be a promo was just a paragraph or two. Now, everyone needs to write out the smallest details and insert pithy commentary from the announcers. I remember one time, I posted what I thought was a promo, just a simple paragraph, and was told by a few folks that that "didn't count" or something. Part of the reason I post sporadically is that I don't want to write a whole bunch of actions or comments. A promo should be you say your thoughts about the match and that's it.
Also, I really don't care about anything involving obvious alt id's.

Anyway, I've made my thoughts on the subject clear, and I've pm'ed Joe to hopefully clear the air between us. I respectfully request not to be put in anymore polls at this time, and apologize to anyone who took offense to either the now-infamous promo or comments in this thread.

"Kayfabe" is essentially wrestling-slang for "in character". For example, when Hogan talks about how he's gonna beat up Shawn Michaels, that's talking in kayfabe. Conversely, when the Rock talks about he and Steve Austin work together to put on a match and essentially confirms the notion that wrestling is predetermined, that's known as "breaking kayfabe".

Snarf,you piss n moan like a little bitch and accuse people off stuff they havent done,yet you have defended your actions with a tissue of self serving shit.
You accuse me of vote rigging,yet it was me who brought up the fact it was being done,and even went as far as to contract Rob to have the method of multiple voting removed.
All the while the main vote rigging was going on,or at least when I belive it was going on,you were constantly winning,I was not,so where is your foundation in that accusation?
Also,how many heavyweight title challenges have I had during the year & a half of this forum?
None,that how many,yet you accuse me of trying to squash you.
You also say that all your angles are one sided.
Well how about the fact that a feud was set up between you n me but you failed to even make one post about it,killing the feud off before it even had a chance to get off the ground!
You also admit you dont give a shit about other peoples posts,yet expect us to care about yours.
As for your match write ups making you look bad,as I said before,I didnt see you defending me when I had what was the worst squash in RDCW history.
Once again its all about you,despite your protestations that other people pick on you.
I really dont care what appologies have been thrown out there,they aint worth shit as far as I am concerned!
You are woefully ignorant of anyone in this forum but you.
We all supported you when you came up with the angle that got you to the heavyweight championship as it was funny as hell,but this so called new angle is not really an angle,its just an excuse for you to piss n moan!
If you dont wanna take other peoples promos into consideration,then I suggest you dont bother posting here ever again!

Have you been reading SPAMM's promos lately? Very short and to the point, and very funny. You don't have to write long promos, you don't have to write an interview, you don't have to write commentary in the promo. When I first started, I didn't do any of that. I just came out to the ring and talked about my match. It helped me to work with Oakley, because he and I worked together to sell our feud. We'd take turns posting first, and the second poster would get the physical shots in. But as I continued to work on my character, I wanted to add things into the post to make it more entertaining. I worked hard to get a grasp for how Monroe and Marcum would react to a situation, and I use that when I write up match recaps as well. I don't always add commentary to my posts, but if I can, I do, because in a real show, the announcers never shut up. But that's just me. Other people have done the same, probably because they want that same effect from their posts. But not everyone does that. No one has to. It's a personal decision.
As for the lengths of the promos, sometimes it just works that way. Sometimes a poster has a lot to say. And those posts are important because they often give us more to work with in response to the character. No one has to write a long promo, but it happens. Sometimes it happens a lot. If you want to participate in the forum, you have to read other people's work. Why should they read your work if you don't want to read theirs? And if you don't like that someone is making long posts, then start a feud with the person. The longer the post, the more ammunition the poster is providing you for your own promo. Look at what Joe wrote on Meeko's Mic Night. I used some of it, and Sammitch took off with it.
You don't like that Meeko's Mic Night was one continuous post? It looked too long for you? That's just too bad. It was originally just going to be the interview with Joe. But in talking with Joe, I suggested that I would make a post right after it to say that I was not invoking my rematch. I figured that would help open the door for other people to respond. But Joe wasn't able to send me his lines until the weekend, and I didn't get online until Saturday night. It happened that Sammitch was on, so I asked if he wanted to accept the challenge, and my post became part of the larger promo as a segue to introduce Sammitch. Sammitch sent me his lines at 2 am Sunday morning. I was sleeping. What was I supposed to do? Was I supposed to post Meeko's Mic Night with Monroe, and then post my promo to introduce Sammitch, and then hold everyone up so that Sammitch could post hours later? I don't think so. I posted the entire promo Sunday afternoon when I got home from work. One promo, one post. Three different contributors.
You didn't want to read that? Then maybe the other guys are right. Maybe this isn't for you. If you don't have the respect to read what other people put effort into, then why should we care to work with you? It's a two-way street.
I do have some ideas to run by you, if and when you're interested. But it's entirely up to you if you want to participate in any of this. My advice is take a step back and just read, and I mean really read, what we are posting. Read the promos. Read the recaps. Do that for a few weeks. Watch how everything gets put together. It's not easy to book this show. There is a lot to keep track of, and even with four of us working at it, we still sometimes miss something. We're only human. But for the most part, it's a smooth operation. Why? Because the people who want to succeed contribute and communicate with us and each other, and that creates a flow in the writing. That's how it works.

That's interesting, because it was an alt ID that pushed you to the top. Think about that.

So, you're basically saying that you don't care about anyone's work but your own.
Uh, no. I don't care about really, pointlessly long drivel. It used to be a promo was just a paragraph or two. Now, everyone needs to write out the smallest details and insert pithy commentary from the announcers. I remember one time, I posted what I thought was a promo, just a simple paragraph, and was told by a few folks that that "didn't count" or something. Part of the reason I post sporadically is that I don't want to write a whole bunch of actions or comments. A promo should be you say your thoughts about the match and that's it.
Also, I really don't care about anything involving obvious alt id's.
I shan;t bother to argue about alt id's as I have a hell of a time figuring out who is and isn't.
As for the original remark about promo's should be about the match and nothing else, that would be really boring. Plus, it never works that way in real wrestling. I view Promo spots as, essentially, character spots. In pretty much all of my recent promo's, I never say a word about the match, I mostly just make jokes at the expense of my character.
I know you seem to be quite into this hwole joke routine, which is cool, but I'd say there's one big difference between the way your character and mine work. You want to be in the Big Cheese title shot, and I just wanna be around.
Imagine if Doink the Clown had been given the WWF title, at any point. Can you honestly say you would have kept watching? Then, imagine if he cut promo's only occasionally and effectively removed the title belt from proper contension. Wouldn't you just HATE that? I know I would, and I never even saw Doink.
Then, look at Raven's recent TNA run as World Heavyweight Champion. He cut great promo's frequently, worked a shitload of matches and genrally made the belt a serious object. THAT is how it should be done.
Now, I know RDCW isn't real, but I don't honestly see that as an excuse. Guys who are into jokey promo's are fine as wrestlers, but not as holders of the main title. Certainly I have no interest in holding the Big Cheese Championship, nor really in holding any title of any sort (not that I'd turn one down...).

Anyway, I've made my thoughts on the subject clear, and I've pm'ed Joe to hopefully clear the air between us. I respectfully request not to be put in anymore polls at this time, and apologize to anyone who took offense to either the now-infamous promo or comments in this thread.
At least you've apologised, and that's cool. I think it'd be a good idea if everybody just calmed down and got on with what we're doing, 'cos at the moment it's just great.
OOK OOK ACK EEK!

It's good to know that when I offer an apology, everyone is willing to forgive and then drop the matter.
Oh, wait a minute...

And, to be fair, one of my favorite friends there is blind and I take every opportunity available to make fun of that and we're still friends. That guy never fit there. He never got the spirit of the RKMBs. We're gonna keep an eye on the obits, see if he finally left or if he really did have a heart attack.
