Rapier in CY's ????? (Community)
Rapier in CY's ????? // Communitystrike rapierJul 14, 2005, 1:36pm
I just don't know how to respond to you Orb...
You are vile. You have tried to take advantage of the death of one of my most treasured friends, and even though you failed in your attempt - let me tell you this in front of all of these people. I will never, ever, ever forgive or forget what you have tried to do here. PAGE did not deserve to have his life cut short. PAGE did not deserve to die. PAGE was one of the most respectable men I have ever met. But you Orb, for what you have done here, you do not deserve to live. I wish it was you who had died, Orb, and not him. He was a far better person than you just proved you could ever be. I am so sorry that this is how your passing has been treated my friend. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com gnu32Jul 14, 2005, 1:55pm
You are complaining about someone being in charge letting out a few
harmless words. While your complaining about Strike Rapier, your also complaining about yourself. You don't remember telling C P to stop "the fucking bleeding" in camp awteen? Yes thats a very good example your setting as a cabin leader. [View Quote] orbJul 14, 2005, 1:58pm
Does this mean that anyone suffering from a tragic situation, get to toss
civilization out the window and go the Gate, or any public place for that matter, and stampede with every fowl thought, ill-wish and corrupted behavior known and unknown... since they are behaving out of an expression of "genuine emotions" ? Or Tart, would you eject them ? You think it's normal that someone at a funerel or wedding screeches out obsceneties to others for behaving decently? You'll notice a lot of the teens (and adults) online have ODD, which is Opositional Defiant Disorder. They are apparently wanting to recreate their own new civilization since the rules that are in place 'in the real world' anger them and rob them of their freedom of expression. gnu32Jul 14, 2005, 2:03pm
This would be the typical reaction of the teen you have described:
"OMG PAGE DIED YAY I FUCKING HATE PK'S PLZ" The fact that a teenager (Or adult) had sympathy for someone who has just passed away is completley diffrent from the above. Indeed PAGE wouldn't like you posting a chat log here and complaining about a little language and what possibly could be your worrying vision for the CY's: "And for Community and Spirit, oh Fucking great, its" Yes like Strike is going to make the Cy's very colorful. He is doing his bit for the community, and a little language forces you to bitch and moan about something so small. Have some respect and some sympathy, and be thankful that Strike is doing something for the community rather than using the newsgroups as the City Chatlog dump. [View Quote] orbJul 14, 2005, 2:14pm
That whole scenario was set up to begin with Rapier.
"But you Orb, for what you have done here, you do not deserve to live. I wish it was you who had died, Orb, and not him. He was a far better person than you just proved you could ever be." It was you and that tourist coming in at that very moment who are despicable. Why was that person a tourist? The citizen who was in "tourist mode" didnt' want to be involved in such a horrific situation? Why did a tourist know about Page's passing before you ( the dear close friend you say you are ) ? Get off your insanity trip, you and your "teen" buddies, if they are even teens at all, go get some therapy. rossyfox eJul 14, 2005, 3:06pm
Get over yourself, you stupid cow. Warriorken300012 is an active
tourist, I've seen him around. It's entirely possible that he could find out before Mark. Mark Randall may have a few undesirable qualities, but he would never do anything like what you have just accused him of. [View Quote] rossyfox eJul 14, 2005, 3:19pm

I know it's not a joking matter. You accuse me of not caring about someone
passing away. You don't even know me at all. I'm 44 years old and I'm a high risk heart patient because of a medicine that I HAVE to take which deals with another medical situation that I have... and I see the value of life more than most of you teens do at this point. Now you can start cheering!!!!!! Some of you can take something and wrench it around until it's nearly unrecognizable. I found it crude the way the initial conversation ensued. A person given authority in an important part of Active Worlds such as an award system ought to be handled by respectable mature person/people. Not those with a vendetta. You keep sticking up for them too please ok? See if you jump on that wagon you'll get a CY for your efforts. I see the future of AW in the hands of some of you and I think it's pitiful. rossyfox eJul 14, 2005, 3:35pm

I didn't.
> Not those with a vendetta. You're one to talk. You have no evidence against Mark, you're only accusing him because of your personal feelings towards him. > I see the future of AW in the hands of some of you and I think it's pitiful. Please don't turn this into some kind of age war. This is about you taking advantage of Mark's emotional outburst. That you could even think of accusing him for setting the situation up is... wow. orbJul 14, 2005, 3:39pm
I didn't accuse HIM of setting up that scenario. Where are you reading that
from? situation up is... wow. To clear things up on the age matter, I've said both some teens and some adults have ODD. So it's not just teens behaving like cave people in AW! gnu32Jul 14, 2005, 3:40pm
This isn't about trying to get a cy award, that is total bullshit
Ross is sticking up for his freinds and your still bitching. Do you see the future of AW in the hands of noone? Of course you do, it would be pathetic [View Quote] > You keep sticking up for them too please ok? See if you jump on that wagon > you'll get a CY for your efforts.

Take off your Crown of Thorns, plz, Sharon.
Wanna compare health charts? I'm 48 years old, confined to a wheel chair 98% of my waking hours because I was diagnosed with MS 23 years ago. I take some medicines to couteract the side effects of other medications I take. I, too, know the value of life and the value of the quality of life. I also know when something isn't worth the energy to get all riled up over. Why do you think I would not take your bait today when you tried to drag this idiotic argument into The Gate?

"Stop with the stupid "community" excuse, goddamn it people can read
theres no need to be an attention whore and repost everything you post." - [View Quote] The above taken from another topic in the Worldbuilders Group. Nice Gnu very nice. rossyfox eJul 14, 2005, 3:47pm
Yes you did. If he wasn't in on the scenario being set up, then that
reaction would still be a real one, thus your accusation would be baseless. Plus, you accused him of conspiring with a "teen" friend logged in as a tourist. [View Quote] orbJul 14, 2005, 3:48pm
That wasn't bait. This is a real concern. Otherwise why have PK's and GK's
and why should anyone care about anything for that matter? Let's just let every situation go when we see something going wrong. Let's let the people in the streets get robbed and raped or even worse killed. Let everyone wish everyone else dies. Let's see, maybe I'll go stand in the middle of the gate while you're on duty and cuss for everything that I hurt about. Would you eject me? This isn't just about cussing. rossyfox eJul 14, 2005, 3:58pm
Real concern?
Real concern over what? Mark cussed because of emotional distraught. Oh boo hoo. When is that likely to happen again? [View Quote] themaskJul 14, 2005, 6:04pm
All I have to say if you don't like how AW is being handled, GTFO and
STFU. Simple. gnu32Jul 14, 2005, 8:16pm
Yes, i'm not the one using the community as a reason for posting logs
and a very stupid opinion of someone [View Quote] tart sugarJul 14, 2005, 9:26pm
In what world did this incident happen? Was it a PK patrolled world or The
Gate? If you truely have concerns and if I could address any of them, I'd be more than happy to meet you in AW somewhere and discuss them. If this had happened on my shift in The Gate, I would have said I'm sorry for what happened to Page but to plz remember to keep your language appropriate for a G rated world. Just as I would sympathize with your hurts but keep your language in check should you do as you suggested you might on my shift. Stuff happens all the time in RL. A lot of it not good. We can not turn a blind eye to it, nor can we force our personal morals on others. I follow the guidelines of a GateKeeper while on duty. I signed a pledge to uphold those guidelines. However, what others do in other worlds of AW is not my concern as a GK. And most of what ppl do the world over in RL is beyond my comprehension. I think to obsess over something that happened in a VR chat is unhealthy. You are getting ridiculous now, talking about letting robbers, rapists and murders do as they plz. If this isn't just about cussing, then what is it about? [View Quote] orbJul 14, 2005, 9:55pm
What I said about my behaving that way at the gate was hypothetical. I'm
not obsessing. tart sugarJul 14, 2005, 10:03pm
orbJul 14, 2005, 10:09pm
Another hypothetical situation.
~~~~~~Your friend passes away and you find out while you're standing at the gate. It's not your shift at that time, yet you put on your privs right after hearing about it and start swearing. ~~~~~~ Appropriate? Respectful? strike rapierJul 14, 2005, 10:27pm
My bot records clearly show I had logged on to the CT citizenship before I
even knew what was happened as I had been directing people to send any comments to it, instead of me. Coming off the CT privileges would have put me on PS. For the record, I am not, nor have I ever been fully in charge of the CYs. I am hoping that Teal and I can pull something off together. -- - Mark Randall http://zetech.swehli.com [View Quote] |
