It was never that. We worked with the other people on this board to make guidelines that we were all comfortable with. Never was it an our way or the highway concept.
Quote: And using this as a front to "pull" your characters from the story is bullshit, you were pulling them anyway and should not use this incident as "reason" to pull them.
It has been known that we were pulling our characters, yes. I'm not pulling Adem now in the middle of the story because of your story. I'm doing it because there has been a show of people in this group who were present and involved in the discussion of the guidelines now argueing over the semantics that were already discussed. I'm not in the mood to keep trying to redefine something just to allow an instance that soem may like in.
Quote: You guys never intended to stay, and simply pulling the characters with no exit post/write out is rude and insulting.
Yes, it is; and I don't give a fuck anymore. As I told you, I only had Adem in this story because Jackie asked for him to be. I tried to write him out of the action earlier, but he was brought back into the middle of it. I tried to get back into the swing of writing but couldn't. I worked with other people to get rules that they said they agreed to, only to have them come back and reconsider months later. I'm not feeling cooperative anymore.
Quote: Never did I like, nor agree to the "RULES" you guys set and bend to fit your desires of what the board should be. This board does not consist of 3 posters, stop trying to make everyone conform to your exact ideas. Not everything is perfect, nor should everything be perfect.
Three people didn't set this up and make everyone else follow. Everyone had their say. The group as a whole agreed to it. That's democracy. It was something set up for not just those involved, but anyone who would come in. But, I guess it doesn't matter since it has been proven that people are unable to make a commitment to something for more than a few days. Democracy has failed.
