My reasons for ignoring these nations are many and personal. I have no compulsion to explain them to you.

There are ways to get off of this list, but revealing them would be an easy invitation for some to take advantage of them.

Also, Rave Shentavo, Praetor, and the EODS will always be on this list, and there is no way for any of them to get off of it, unless it is to allow for their complete obliteration.

Furthermore, I will probably be adding nations to this list as my interactions with other nations continue.

As a clarification, Kain Irenicus is included in my blanket-ignore of the Shentavo bullshit.

However, though I ignore the entirety of the Shentavo storyline, I do not ignore all vampires. Just her grodload ones. *rolls her eyes*

Edit: Taking out Slag's additions...

Edit x2: Putting the horror that is Rave Shentavo at the top of the list. "Gods, make it stop!"

Edit x16: Taking Kalessin off of the PermaIgnore list, and replacing him with Praetor... "Hoo-rah for psiwank!"

Edit x18: My god, so why didn't I add Wolf Kingdom earlier? "Look, I can walk about in daylight."

Edit x19: Vampire clarification "Rave Shentavo is teh grodload."

Edit x22: Added two more nations "Ok, several thousand ships is a bit much, but it is easier to swallow than owning several starsystems..."

Edit x23: Added Xanthal. Dumb prick.

Edit x24: Removed Wolf Kingdom DEATED!

And you bother to make this list if you give no reasons.....why.....?

So when Angelus says... "I ignore you" and they ask "why" he can just point to this thread.

*scratches head* Why am I on this list? Oh, yay, I'm not, someone named "Capsule Corp" is :P

seriosuly, why? i don't even remember you.

[tag] for when Angelus ignores me too. :P

But he doesn't say why! I quote:

I have no compulsion to explain them to you.

*shrugs* dont know about that... maybe hes just tired...

But but but :( you invited me to join the Ur Trade Pact!

*gets a hunted look in his eyes*

Funny how Angelus also ignores Rave Shentavo.

If he's Black-Listing me because i have like 10 ships that have partial borg technology, oh, i'm soooo godmodding ;) wow. I might as well ignore this guy as well... cuz obviously he has no respect for any semi-creative RP :)

Go ahead and speculate.

My reasons for ignoring these nations are my own. Does it matter what my reasons are? You will be ignored just the same.

Angelus' is a legimite reason.

Your ignoring is done in spite :P

Aww. I do not see why I would ignore you, Resi.

You annoy me sometimes, but I do not think that that is a valid enough reason for ignoring you.

But but but you invited me to join the Ur Trade Pact!

*gets a hunted look in his eyes*

Hey, the shun development is more for IC reasons than OOC ones, but I will readily admit that I love your roleplay style, and have no problem accepting most, if not all, of what you do.

Also, as a further clarification, there are ways to get off of both lists, but revealing them is a cheap way for you all to take advantage of them.

Come on, give a girl a break.

Hey, the shun development is more for IC reasons than OOC ones

That's fine. People are welcome to mistrust my nation IC. Just not me OOC, because then I have all these issues and suddenly cliffs look nice and I cry and things :/

Presumably in Voices' case, being less aggressive and downright nasty would go some way towards that.

Thanks for clarification /smiles

*grin* Speculate all you want. You may be going in the right direction, or you may not be.

However, I do want to roleplay with you sometime, if our respective governments can get over their own pompous pride.

OO, OO, add me, add me!

I suppose I can see some reason as to why some of these nations were ignored… though I’ll admit that I haven’t had dealings with most of them.

Most people who don’t RP with the Shentavos don’t because of all the magic that is brought into it as well as the rare but inevitable summoning of gods strength, it doesn’t make the role play any worse (providing everyone knows what they are getting into) but it does mean that you have to work around their abilities.

For example; I didn’t want telepathy to work on my leader because he knows all of Iuthia’s secrets, so I made a point of making James have a strong willpower and mental control techniques to stop telepathy from working… problem was that the supernatural in question kept reading my mind using the narrative OOC descriptions. Ultimately I devised a system where I stopped describing how he felt and instead gave hints [happy] in brackets… however I can IC fake these thoughts too.

I don’t personally think that it’s a bad thing if you nations leader is a powerful half-god of über slaying, providing you role-play it well, and I feel that the Shentavos RP pretty well, better then I do and I feel that some of my stuff (not political RP, but my character on character RP) is pretty good. Anyways… some technology I’ve seen used by some nations just seems silly… so I don’t mind some messed up magical powers too much.


The Empire of Draconic States I’ve only had a small amount of dealings with and I’m not sure about some of the technology used… however I’m not an expert on logistics and how technology may be able to pass some of the logistic problems we have these days. Personally I would be a happy man if someone explained support units in detail…


Borg technology seems shaky… I’ll admit it, but I don’t really care because I don’t know any Borg nation that has enough military power to be able to assimilate my forces… providing they don’t claim to have über tech cubes that are impervious to attack I don’t mind, I would also complain that Star Trek may have scientists looking into their technology, but teleportation using that method is pretty much a dream that will never happen.

Other then that… I don’t know… I prefer not to ignore nations, except maybe in a singular thread where they mess up, because we all make mistakes while learning about how our nations function and when we are proven wrong it is up to us to adapt a little, the problem I suppose is when you aren’t prepared to make concessions…

Iuthia: Very well said.

To semi- quote someone who was faster than me:

Mallberta, no, I am not going to ignore you. Your hive-mind stuff is cool as hell, and I love your use of Giger art. Well done, and it matches your nation's concept perfectly.

[up!]

Glad we amuse you ma'am. :roll: Indeed, you rather amuse me too, :P

Why have I not been ignored? I find this highly insulting! I demand to be added to that list imediately!

OK, I don't even really know why I'm looking on here. Just bored I guess.

Um, you've never even RPed with me...
AFAIK you are the only person ignoring me.
I find it quite shocking you're ignoring me even though I've never had any dealings with you whatsoever. I mean I haven't even rped anything since coming back due to my extremely heavy workload.
Quite sad, but then again, that's why no one respects you.

Because I've read your stuff and decided then to ignore you. Maybe those reasons match Angelus' slightly?

And Angelus is respected, just sometimes misunderstood.

If you've decided to ignore someone that's fine, just go do it - but publishing a list of "I'm not going to talk to you, so nurr" is a bit playground ain't it? :?

Ooo, that one hurt. Me with no respect...

*winces in mock pain* I ignore you because I want to ignore you. I would like to take this moment to point out that I have successfully avoided roleplaying with every nation on my list with the annoying exception of Solae from the EODS.

I would also like to point out that if I am not at all respected, then why even bother posting your disdain?

As for this all being playground... *shrug* I find this all highly amusing, and since it is a product of sheer boredom, I think it has proven to be quite entertaining.

But that's just the point - it isn't really entertaining, just facile and childish.

Hey, whatever floats your boat :lol:

And yet we are playing with little hypothetical (sp) army men on battles which are in our imagination. Posting a list serves a couple purposes:

a.) Lets those you ignored know your disdain with their claims or/and their role-play. Maybe, if you are lucky they will try to find out what it is and improve… failing that they will post numerous posts about how they shouldn’t be ignored and don’t care (hahaha) which provides amusement.

b.) Informs other people that you are not happy with these players and may result in more people ignoring the them. It also provides additional entertainment as they ignore you too or support their ignored friends.

Remember, this is Angelus’s list of people (In Character) she will ignore, not OOC list of people she will ignore so I suppose it has more purposes then I thought…

So neh… :P

Pardon? I can't hear you as I have my fingers in my ears and am shouting "laa laa laa" :lol:

I'm going to ignore everyone (IC and OOC, except my own region) - so my list is the membership database - much easier that way :twisted:

OOC: Praetor: I ignored ya too, remember? It was something about a magically-appearing Vorlon fleet.

~Siri

Um, you did for a second, then we agreed you wouldn't ignore me unless I rped in a manner deserving of an ignore. We went over that argument plenty of times before, and I thought we'd settled it, no need to drag stuff up again. You had no problem with my forces when they were helping you, now that we're not allies gives you no right to suddenly ignore me, but either way, we worked that out a month or two ago.

Um, you've never even RPed with me...

Read my stuff??
I've made a whopping 1 or 2 IC posts in the last 6 months. I don't even know who you are.
And everyone I've ever talked to has no respect for Angelus.
ToY will never accept a defeat, and will just ignore anyone who could possibly do so.

No offense praetor but could you whinge any more monotonously? So a few people ignore you....Get over it and move on. We all have our demons and our annoyances just roll with it and move on. There's plenty of fish out there in the sea to RP with.

BTW Omi can I have fun with this thread too? ;)

~Iraqstan

Oh for chrissakes, stop talkin' out your ass, Praetor. "Never accept a defeat and ignore anyone who could do so?" Bullshit, though I think in the past few wars we've all seen a number of folks who've played like that. You want to win a conflict? Fine and well - don't be pulling things like unreasonable deployment, stupidly uber 'ass-space' forces, and laying out poor tactics.

That being said, let me make clear that even I don't always agree with everything my allies do, so don't be pushing the 'ass-kissin' argument with me - pre-emptive hush on that. Part and parcel of the whole free rp bit. We all make our choices, and we're all free to use, accept, or ignore at our leisure. At least a good amount of us don't just do it for no reason. I myself refuse to play with a number of folks based on their rp history, I just feel no need to post a list. When it comes up, I'll deal with it.

Now. If you've got anything of content to add, rather than spewing spite and bitterness on account of a couple of Trium members giving you the cold shoulder, feel free, otherwise, feel free to sod off til you can speak with a bit more intelligence, if that's even possible.

BTW Omi can I have fun with this thread too? ;)

Go right ahead, m'dear.

Seems like Nathi has already started. *grin*

Yay. Added a bunch of crap, so [Up!] for maximum viewage.

I, Sketch the player, formally requests to be added to your, Angelus', ignore list. It has become apparently that we can no longer interact with any mutual sort of respect. It is unfortuante that it has come down to this, and by being excluded from interacting with you, I will be excluded from interacting with basically all the good RPers of NS. Thus, with this, I announce my intentions to fall off the face of NS. Perhaps I will return some other day when I learn to deal with your type. Please read my response (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1884969#1884969), and all will become clear. Perhaps I'm just being a whiny 'lil bitch, but then again it really doesn't matter either way. I will be out of you hair for the time being. Be happy, rejoice. Farewell.

~ Sketch, the player

Oh, hello Sketch.

You aren't looking very well, perhaps you should eat your vitamins?

No, I'm perfectly fine. No problems here, well maybe just a lack of sleep, but that'll fix itself sooner or later.

Up, up, and away!

Not really. Huge numbers of people have Angelus on ignore. Heh.

It appears you've added reasons for your ignores and the one that really confuses me is Rave Shentavo, or any of the other Shentavos for that matter. Shitty roleplay? Please, inform me how a player that is regarded by most as one of the best roleplayers here is shitty? She doesn't techwank, she doesn't numberwank, or do any other other kind of godmodding and she's on the whole a mature person IC and OOC. I am thoroughly confounded.

Oh, and also the definition of good roleplaying is now simply not cheating. I do so love high standards.

Actualy Rave is regarded as one of the best Person RPers in the game, once you get past the magic/God effects, that usualy ony set the scene, she/he/they, are some of the best RPers I know, even better than you (Nathicana) and Menelmacar, both of you I hold in high respect.

ooc:Also, , Kalessin will always be on this list, and there is no way for them to get off of it, unless it is to allow for their complete obliteration.

OOC:

I feel...honoured? :twisted:

But why such intense antipathy? My virtually harmless Space-Palace which probably masses less than either the insane 'as long as the earth is wide, and more high tech than the borg' Angelan fleet or the even worse 'Teleporting indestructable heavily armed World-disk', can't be the whole reason. Can it? :roll:

My position on Rave's RP (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1829494&highlight=#1829494)

Personally it's a matter of personal preference when you RP with Rave, anyone who doesn't like god-like characters that won't die unless it's at a set time, probably best not RP with her.

I don't think she a bad roleplayer and she is respected by a large group of players (that form a mob when something bad happens) but her RP's are not for everyone...

Otherthen that I like the Shentavo plots, even if I end up being dwarfed in comparison to the main character as a consquence, the only issue I could have is that Rave writes in huge blocks that hurt my head.

Y'know what? I don't claim to be the best RPer here, but there's no way I can accept that statement. Who, besides Scandinavian states 'regards' Rave as the best in the game? Please, give me their names. I suspect the list will be a short one.

It appears you've added reasons for your ignores and the one that really confuses me is Rave Shentavo, or any of the other Shentavos for that matter. Shitty roleplay? Please, inform me how a player that is regarded by most as one of the best roleplayers here is shitty? She doesn't techwank, she doesn't numberwank, or do any other other kind of godmodding and she's on the whole a mature person IC and OOC. I am thoroughly confounded.

... excuse me? Regarded by most as one of the best? Repeat that again for me? And ... pardon while I blink again in confusion ... 'doesn't wank or godmod'?

I think I'll go back to my writing for now. Reality as I know it just took a spin.

No, she can't wank because she barely has a military and if the immortality part bothers you then you must consider all elf nations poor RPers, too.

Yes, well, unlike some, I could care less of your opinion or others. I, unlike some, don't do my rp for praise, or pats on the back, or any of that other drek.

I'm in it for the gameplay and interaction. "Once you get past" indeed. Pardon whilst I snort derisively. And so help me, if I see much more of *<insert random action>* as being accepted as 'good roleplay' I think I'm going to hurl.

This is a forum where you can WRITE people. I daresay, if you're going to bother doing it at all, do it well, and cut the lazy shortcuts and for the love of GOD chech the spelling and grammar.

Putting my arrogant soapbox away for now. And please, Thelas, do yourself a favor and stop trying to compare folks. It does nothing but engender bad feelings.

Actualy Rave is regarded as one of the best Person RPers in the game, once you get past the magic/God effects, that usualy ony set the scene, she/he/they, are some of the best RPers I know, even better than you (Nathicana) and Menelmacar, both of you I hold in high respect.

Thanks Tarasovka. Appologies to Menelmacar and Nathicana.

Then please enlighten us misled sheep, why is Rave a bad roleplayer? It's nice to have an opinion and all, but unless you have something to back it up it's just talk.

And something I've noticed, all three (how's that for a majority?) nations that have condemned Rave as a bad RPer are in the ToY. Coincidence? You be the judge.

1. Point to where I said she was a bad RPer... oh, wait, you can't. Because I didn't say so. Don't put words in my mouth, EVER. Retract, please.

2. Explain how one's IC alliance matters at all in this matter.

~Siri

And Bisons isn't on that list and RS is?

Ya'll gonna ingore all us Shentavos....Does that mean ya'll a'gonna go hatin me as well ????

~Siri

1. No, you did not, at least not directly. Of course, your vehement objections to an opinion would suggest just that.

2. It doesn't matter, not really. I just noticed a pattern and pointed it out and let others draw whatever conclusion they wished.

Then please enlighten us misled sheep, why is Rave a bad roleplayer? It's nice to have an opinion and all, but unless you have something to back it up it's just talk.

And something I've noticed, all three (how's that for a majority?) nations that have condemned Rave as a bad RPer are in the ToY. Coincidence? You be the judge.

First of all, I resent your insinuations there, boy. My membership in the Trium came about via valid roleplay, and frankly, I'm surprised as anyone that a) I was accepted and b) they haven't tossed me out yet. In case you hadn't noticed, I'm far from what one might call 'typical' Trium material.

I think I sense a good deal of envy or something on your part - I'm still not quite clear on what. I never said 'bad'. I questioned the assumption that she is considered by the 'majority', whoever that is, to be the BEST. Please feel free to re-read and answer when you've managed to gather your wits about you. For the record - one doesn't need uberships and a ridiculous military to godmod, and frankly, the idea of creating a nation to simply play a character for romance/fantasy in this game is silly. There are a vast number of other places for that. And before you go and accuse me of the same, please take the time to review. Yes, I focus more on my leader. Most folks do. However, it is in the role OF leader that I play her, which is where the difference lies.

Gads, this discussion has gotten ridiculous. I'm out. Carry on with the petty ego-stroking as you like. Frankly, I tire of it.

Envy? If you hadn't said "or something" I would have thought you were out of your mind. I won't express my thoughts on the ToY because it will more than likely earn me a warning for flaiming.

As for the godmodding, your Mayness, in my experience it is precisely that. I say in my experience because it is quite obvious that I have not been present in this game as long as my esteemed opponents in this debate.

Focusing on characters is what she does best, it make no sense for her to do something she does poorly. FYI, I don't care about an RPers technique, so long as they are good writers and don't cheat then I can work with them and more often than not I am happy to do so.

I'm still unclear as to this beef with the TofY that people have. Blanket-ignoring all of us serves nothing, and sometimes may make an RP suffer.

I also got in, and was completely surprised I did. I have no uber-ships, nano-technology of any real note or any of that. Hell, i'm not even FTL capable, or having heavy duty energy shields on my ships. I like to at least keep my tech somewhere in the realm of possible.

Maybe i'm deluding myself, but I thought I got in because I play a race of non-humans at least passably well. Stop judging every nation because of their alliance, and look at them individually. And stop putting words into people's mouths!

As for Rave, I have no problem with her/his RP style. It's what they like, even though paragraph breaks are a good thing. But then people get their panties in a bunch about it! Rave is a grown person; let him/her speak for themself.

That's my two bits.

*coughs, smiles, and says absolutely nothing*

I don't ignore, or at least haven't been forced to yet. I also haven't accused any ToY nation of godmodding, although it would be easy for me to do so, advanced production methods or no. I haven't called anyone within the ToY a bad roleplayer, either. I make a habit of not judging nations by their alliance, but when you constantly run across a couple of negative traits among nations and they are either present or past members of an alliance it's kind of not to.

As for putting the words in others mouths:
1) I have a gift for reading people and I'm not anywhere near stupid, so forgive me if I read between the lines to see the true meaning of a statement.

2) You accuse me of putting words in the mouths of others, yet almost all of your post did so to me. That kinda like the pot calling the kettle black, isn't it?

Given up on the point that previously went here, as it appears most of the targets of said action didn't actually know what was going on.

On a similar note, Kormanthor/Siagon, Bisons, Russian Forces, Xanthal, and the Resi Corporation occupy the other lucky ignore/godmod spots. Yay.

*sigh*

When the shit hits the fan, everyone gets splattered...........I'm gonna go wash off now, poop stinks.

I still don't get why having 5% of my fleet modified with borg-like technology gets me ignored lol

etc etc...

Angelus, Berserker, Dread Lady Nathicana, Kaenei, Karmabaijan, Scolopendra, Sunset are all added to said "suspended ignore list"... etc etc etc
*shrugs*

Works for me. It's your call.

*goes back to not being able to care less*

--Hearty Aerospacewanker Pirate Cap'n Scolo

I still don't get why having 5% of my fleet modified with borg-like technology gets me ignored lol

I am not just ignoring you for your b0rg tech, there is a whole lot more to it.

I think Rave is a piss-poor roleplayer. My opinion, you do not agree, go shove it.

There are a lot of people not on this list that are technically ignored, but they no longer play here anyway (Sephirus, MagicChina, Mishakal, Drum Gods, etc.)

And the bolded [things] are not necessarily reasons, just personal humor. Me amusing myself.

Bubba Shentavo, I'll still play with you, Shentavo Fleas, and Kiki, 'cause it's fun...

And the list grows as the two sides continue to add on more and more "ignored" nations. Soon, the great diety in the ether willing, there will be none left except for me...........the sole inheritor of the broken system known as free-form RP.

*launches into melodramatic speech*

Oh the drama, the drama :roll:

I'm surprised nobody within The Great Plain has made it onto the ignore list yet. TGP members seem to do a good job of getting on everyone elses...

*stratches head* I have actually never even heard of "The Great Plain"...

You didn't answer my question...

I'm sorry, did someone say something?

~*~

Actually, I could care less what you do. My RP has never caused an interaction between me and you, and I have never really read anything ick from you anyway.

Oh for chrissakes, stop talkin' out your ass, Praetor. "Never accept a defeat and ignore anyone who could do so?" Bullshit, though I think in the past few wars we've all seen a number of folks who've played like that. You want to win a conflict? Fine and well - don't be pulling things like unreasonable deployment, stupidly uber 'ass-space' forces, and laying out poor tactics.

That being said, let me make clear that even I don't always agree with everything my allies do, so don't be pushing the 'ass-kissin' argument with me - pre-emptive hush on that. Part and parcel of the whole free rp bit. We all make our choices, and we're all free to use, accept, or ignore at our leisure. At least a good amount of us don't just do it for no reason. I myself refuse to play with a number of folks based on their rp history, I just feel no need to post a list. When it comes up, I'll deal with it.

Now. If you've got anything of content to add, rather than spewing spite and bitterness on account of a couple of Trium members giving you the cold shoulder, feel free, otherwise, feel free to sod off til you can speak with a bit more intelligence, if that's even possible.

Aite how about all that BS when Sketch tried to ram the world ring?
The trium was so eager to accept it when the dominion's bubble got "burst" (i guess, pun intended), yet as soon as sketch does something that could destroy the world ring, he a) wasn't close enough, and b) the entire world ring was transported out of the area.
You people set your own rules for a game that inherently has no rules, and throw out the one thing that could be taken as rules, i.e. the NS rankings. So sue me that I had the "pop bug" for a few months. Not my choice, with or without it I'm one of the older nations and would have one of the strongest militaries and economies. Sorry I don't have the time to spend RPing to make 3000 posts like some people, that doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to RP, and seeing as this is based on your nation, RP as a powerful nation.
I've said it before, decide how you want to play this game, either based on the NS rankings, in which case you have to respect my position, or completely ignore them, in which case there is no point to playing this game on these boards, and I will take my leave from people who wish to RP like that.

he a) wasn't close enough, and b) the entire world ring was transported out of the area.
Yes, dredge up that old arguement, and forget to post the coallary facts that a) the distance thing was eventually rectified, and apologized for (Not our fault that Star Wars engagement ranges suck. Also worth noting that it would have been changed had someone said. "Hey, please change it" But no...people just whine.)

and, this part is important.
Angelus had already had long standing claims to having jump drives, and as far as I know, none of you complained

Now, lets go over a little bit of something I like to call Common f***ing sense
Your enemy is charging at you as fast as he can. You have two choices:
A) Stand still and hope that it doesn't completely ream you or
B) Dodge the attack.

Seeing how nobody voiced issues about Angelus' drives before the war, and even if they had, choose (of their own free will) to play with Angelus regardless, so you have NO basis to bitch about it. M'kay?


P.S. Its a WorldDisc, not a world ring.

The trium was so eager to accept it when the dominion's bubble got "burst" (i guess, pun intended), yet as soon as sketch does something that could destroy the world ring,
Another thing, why do you keep saying Trium in this paragraph.
We don't control the actions of the WorldDisc. Angelus does.
So why in the f***ing hell are you implying that this is the trium's fault.

Angelus does what Angelus does. Angelus is responsible for Angelus's actions, so why label the entire Trium.

That's what i'm attempting to say, but the point gets lost in polite dialogue. Ah, well....

Read my stuff??
I've made a whopping 1 or 2 IC posts in the last 6 months. I don't even know who you are.
And everyone I've ever talked to has no respect for Angelus.
ToY will never accept a defeat, and will just ignore anyone who could possibly do so.Noting the number of times that we've actually been attacked, I'd say you have absolutely no pattern of behavior on which to base this statement.
Hmm, let me try to think of the times people have actually attacked ToY.
Hmmm....
There was the Sketchian attack on the WD.
And, ummm, hmmm, I can't think of anymore. Can you?

There have been some skirmishes with Arda's forces, but those generally didn't result in any sort of large scale victories for either side. Which makes sense, I mean we do tend to stay out of wars,(I can count the number of conflicts we've engaged in on both hands) and have well defined objectives when we do, objectives we can accomplish.

Such nice blanket statement based on your opinion of one event.
Its that type of thing that gets you ignored Praetor.

I stopped caring about the Pop bug thing (leaving for a couple of months then coming back and claiming to be the end all did bug me though), but when you accuse my friends and I of things based on a the actions of a few in an extremely limited number of events, that makes me not want to play with you. Infact, it makes me want to ignore you.

Hint: Stop baseless accusations, and maybe you'll get some more respect from people.

WOW....could you guys calm down the flamefest ?

*grabs sarcasm dial and turns it down from Scathing to Pointed*
"Better?"

<snip> interesting take on world disc affair


Angelus does what Angelus does. Angelus is responsible for Angelus's actions, so why label the entire Trium.

People are often judged by those they choose to group with. Simply because they choose to group with them.

For some reason, some people have taken it into their whacked-out little brains that Angelus dictates Triumvirate policy.

THIS IS A FALLACY

I run Angelus how I want to run Angelus, but I am NOT the "leader" of the Triumvirate, nor am I even a major power within the Triumvirate. OOC, I am pretty close to the "upper eschalon", but as far as IC goes, the only three nations Angelus is really close to are Berserker (Blu married to Maica), The Dominion (Secret ties), and Zero-One (We commonly share all/nearly all information).

So, you people can blacklist the entire Triumvirate for my actions, whoop-de-feckin-doo, but do so because you are an idiot, not because I represent the Triumvirate as a whole.

IC description of the Triumvirate of Yut.

"General Assembly"
This is the domain of all Trium nations (with three exceptions), and where they can propose various things, such as: Trade laws, policy change, diplomatic or military actions, etc.

All items WILL AND MUST recieve a democratic vote from the general assembly.

After a proposal is voted on in the general assembly, it passes on to:

"The First Among Equals"
This is the domain of the three original (hence Triumvirate) nations.
Karmabaijan
Scolopendra
Berserker
These three nations each retain a veto, and can axe a proposal.

The Triumvirate, like any good organization has checks and balances within the system. Policy is in place to remove nations from the Trium for actions and/or behavior deemed harmful to the Trium. National sovergnty is maintained, except in cases of genocide, and similarly hideous crimes. IE, we won't kick people out for having different social/political structures than ours.

If you want to accuse any countries of "controlling" the Trium, do your smegging research. Angelus can't control Trium policy.


Now for the OOC Description:
We're largely a group of people who enjoy RP.
It started with Karma, and Scolo, and soon grew to include me when they introduced me to the game.
Our little happy organization was fun, and we started havign some good RP experiences.
As time went on, others noticed us, and oddly enough, wanted to join our little geek group.
So we did. And we didn't discriminate RP styles either.
We'd role-play, and once in a while, run into a RolePlayer we thought to be of good caliber. One thing led to another, and soon some of them were joining our little group.

Sometimes the people turned out to be asses, or, their nations did grievous crimes (Benlands and slavery) and their nations got the boot from the group.

It didn't matter your style or thoughts, any nation could be trium material, from Noldor elves and sentient machines, to a fragging small norse nation with medievil tech level (and people say high-tech and low-tech can't mesh). Magic and science. Human and non-human. Any style, as long as you are good at it, and your nation would be an IC canidate. (at least that was my thinking).
Couple all that with an adaptive charter, and the fact that we all talk with each other out of nationstates, and you get the fact that the Trium is one of the oldest alliances on NS, and we're still going strong. Shit, I'm a normally anti-social person, and I've made friends of various creeds and beliefs because of this little pretend organization. Please, don't bad mouth my friends.

OOC: Just wondering.. Didn't you have about 8,000 capital ships yourself?

If I may say a few words.........

I would appreciate it if people would stop rallying around the anti - Trium banner that is me. My beef, the little that I have, is with certain individual players; some of whom just happen to be, by sheer coincidence, members of the Trium. However, no matter what goes down, it all remains OOC. Unlike many other players here, I am more than able to keep my IC and OOC separate {for the most part anyways}. The fact that so many people are getting bent out of shape over this insignificant development is a sign that the maturity level of this community has dropped. There are many more important things to be concerned about, than to be overly occupied the useless bickering going on here.

My beef, my problem, stay out. If you have a different issue, harp on that, but leave my name out of it please.

My little speech is done. Carry on......

Whoa... thanks, Sketch. *is humbled*

It wasn't baseless, as you never refuted my sketch point.

You may have stopped caring about the pop bug thing, but everyone else in ToY seems to love to bring it up at every possible point. That's not a blanket accusation, that's based on it being raised several times on many different posts by various ppl, many of whom have been in the ToY.
I'm getting sick and tired of people wanting to ignore me for things I have no control over. Every time I get in the slightest debate with any ToY person, at least three more ToY people jump on the bandwagon to bash me. You all need to fight your own fights, IC alliances don't mean you have to all gang up for an OOC discussion.

((OOC: Yes, this is a joke. :wink: ))

As an observation, I believe the reason you've had several jump in like this is you 'attacked' for lack of a better word, the Triumvirate as a whole, not just singling out nations as you'd like to claim. ToY this, Trium that ... I'm sure you can see why more than one might take offense. I'll also note that even in this later argument you continue with the 'everyone' and 'all the time' comments. And again, you're wrong.

Prithee take thy martyr act elsewhere.

You may have stopped caring about the pop bug thing, but everyone else in ToY seems to love to bring it up at every possible point. That's not a blanket accusation, that's based on it being raised several times on many different posts by various ppl, many of whom have been in the ToY.

Yes. That's not a blanket statement at all. After all, you have COUNTLESS documents citing my CONSTANTLY dogging you about the population bug. :roll:

So, you people can blacklist the entire Triumvirate for my actions, whoop-de-feckin-doo, but do so because you are an idiot, not because I represent the Triumvirate as a whole.

It's not about representation. To use an analogy, if there's this big black pimp called ... er ... "Dogg", and five scrawny white boys ... er ... "Nate", "Marshall", "Vanilla", "Vanilla Coke" and "Vanilla Pepis", and Dogg runs around shooting women, raping discarded pepsi cans for that orgasmic scraping feeling, and holding up Mom & Pop corner stores with a flacid banana in a paper bag, people will simply assume that the five scrawny white boys are fine with those activities, given that they continue to hang around with Dogg. Regardless of whether said five scrawny white boys actually do those things themselves.

It wasn't baseless, as you never refuted my sketch point.
Which point is that, may I ask?

Side note: Still got some RPing with Sketch to do, so I can't say I'm harboring any ill will towards him.

as a note. My reasons for ignoring Praetor have absolutely JACK to do with his having the pop bug. I ignore Praetor because he is a whiny bîtch.

Okay, people, calm down before I lock this.

Interesting. It has been a long time since I have seen so many contraversial comments in one thread. I would comment, but for once, I am just going to watch. This matter best leave me out, but I will watch, and with eagerness might I add.

OOC:

I hate to say it, but I can't really blame you for ignoring Praetor, due to his tendency to use stats rather than RP.

So...why do you hate me so much?

ooc: can't say as I've figured out that either ... I mean, teleporting dragons isn't so far off of 'teleporting' uber spacedy ships, other than tech vs fantasy ... nor is a big nigh unto indestructable also 'teleporting' big-ass station so far off a self-regenerating big-ass bio-mineralistic station that psy-wanks I suppose ... all in the grand scale of things, of course.

I'm sorry, sweetness ... for the sake of playing Devil's Advocate, I sometimes have to call 'em as I sees 'em. That being said - I'd hate to be in a war situation with either of you for those same reasons. I thoroughly enjoy rp with a broad assortment of nation types and players, but find that when it comes to conflicts, going up against extremely superior tech levels and other creative bits such as magic and psykers and the like frankly sucks ass for us cutting-edge mundanes.

It's a challenge trying to balance it out. Personally, I go for the path of 'whatever works for the story of it all' whenever possible. So far so good. I fully expect it to bite me in the ass one of these days. We'll see how it goes.

And yes ... number of views disturbing. *chuckles*

Yeah, and when you have a medievel tech nation and get in a dispute with a space power it's just kind of..."You get invaded" One of my other nations had that happen once. Anyway, I'm with Nathi. Whatever works for the story. And..umm..I guess the number of views mean you're popular. ;)

I'm a total aerospace wanking godmoder, apparently. If the shoe fits, I guess...

--Hearty Aerospacewanker Pirate Cap'n Scolo

On a different note... does anyone else find that the fact that this thread has been viewed over 2000 times disturbing?

What can I say? You're popular..............

ooc: that or folks are just by nature drawn to controversy ...

This thread is sounding more and more like a confession booth. Where's the priest? Father, I need guidance! Please help me father!

Ah my son/daughter, there is but one God. To Godmod is the greatest of all sins. But the Lord is most kind and forgiving. Cease your Godmoding and let the Lord's light wash over you and cleanse your spirit of all wankery. Go forth my son/daughter, and wank no more. Amen.

There, you have all been blessed*.

Come on, Nathi! Ya know ya wanna!

Well ... I ah ... *ahem*

It has been ... you know, I don't believe I've ever been to confession before, come to think of it, Father. It's been ages since I've even set foot in a church for more than state weddings or neccessity or the like. How to go about this ...

There are, I suppose, a few things like when I <<deleted by sysop>> with the <<deleted for content>>. And of course all those <<deleted to protect the innocent>> with <<deleted for OPSEC violations>>.

All this and more ... dear God, the list goes on and on. I fear should I attempt to list them all, I'll be here all night. I'm sure that's far from encouraging for you, Father. Such is life.

And that isn't even getting into all the blood on my hands from the <<deleted for graphic portrayal of varied acts of violence>>, the 'cleanup', betrayals, lies and deceptions.

I have willingly broken my marriage vows, and admitted it, having no intention to change for now. My blatant refusal to publicly acknowledge a higher power, though I choose to allow others their delusions, I suppose makes this confession somewhat of a farce, Father, though in deference to the Catholic upbringing my parents, may whatever powers that be have mercy on their souls, so believed in, I will here privately admit to backsliding. Even recently, despite my stubbornness, I actually prayed. No one was more surprised than I.

I regret nothing. I am who I am. I've seldom made apology for that, and I'm not about to do it now. While I admit to being a product of the system I continue to help perpetuate, I maintain that my choices have been my own, and I accept full responsibility for them. It matters not whether you choose to absolve me or not - I will go on, continuing to make the decisions I feel are for the best, as I always have.

I ... thank you, Father. This has been an interesting experience. Forgiveness or not, you've allowed me a bit of introspection, perhaps even offering a touch of clarity with your quiet listening. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a nation to run, plans to set in motion, and several rather unfortunate actions to take. In nome del padre ed il figlio ed il fantasma santo, amen.

The technical term is "mangina". As per online MMORPGs anyway. I think you can guess the derivative (the reverse being "wenis").

I'm quite sure that Angelus is either one or the other... since most everyone is one or the other. And if a guy calls himself a bitch, according to my friend who tries to act ghetto (and fails... miserably), wouldn't that mean that he's "his own bitch"?

Leaving the confessional, Nathicana brushes her hands off against the sides of her jeans, adjusting her cap and dark glasses, her long hair tucked up to look shorter. She grimaces slightly, cracking her knuckles as she walks quickly along the canale back to her offices. Once there, she pours herself a quiet drink, sniffing disdainfully at the idea of confessing and ridding oneself of sin.

As for the Padre ... when they finally think to look, he's been bent at impossible angles and stuffed rather neatly into the small space beneath his bench inside the confessional. Rumors seem to abound for a short time, but are quickly hushed up.

Some things are best forgotten, after all - and some guesses best left unsaid.

Nathi, please don't kill me.

“Ok, several thousand ships is a bit much, but it is easier to swallow than owning several star systems...”

Yeah, both are just a little blatant, even with big nations… Currently Iuthia has a fighter based space force, which is massively inferior to many others, mainly because we’re a barely a future tech nation.

Futuristic guns which have no real in game effect, hover tanks that are hardly better then our grounded version (and cost a hell of a lot more) and a powered armour division that requires a lot of funding and training and only ever has around 200 men and suits, admittedly they can be dropped down from orbit using new drop pod technology (based on Starship troopers) but they cost a ton, their only worth it as shock troops.

I think someone made a good point on nano-technology recently, how it is not all that efficient… not that I use nano-technology… hell, I barely have fusion technology and I only really use that for my space force… which is made up of lots of fighters that use small mass drivers as weapons (no lasers for me). Oh and much more debilitating… I have not FTL drive to speak of, dear I say I’ve been trying to get hold of one, but I haven’t found something compatible to my technology yet.

Now, if only small nations would stop building ****ing huge spaceships that can destroy the world I would be happy… I would also be happy if I never have to fight another space tech nation because my force would be like that of Iraq compared to America.

Though my earth based forces are another matter…

Yeah, the only nation I have with space tech (not this one) has five ships total. Just cause you have the technology to go between the stars doesn't mean you have the resources to have a vast star fleet...or spread five million citizens over seven or eight solar systems.

Angelus has a pretty extensive starfleet, but I wouldn't even begin to say that they could start colonizing other systems. The Angelic FarJump system is FTL but on a limited scale. Most of the Angelic Jumpsystems only reach about 4 light-years at a time, and that really isn't very effective for long-distance travelling.

The longest-distance ship Angelus ever made was the Magician's Nephew, a gift to Alshai Kommetrez of Scolopendra, with 22 light-year jump capability. That would be it.

So, Angelus has quite a few outlying mining faciliies, even a few in the Proxima Centauri system, but that is about it.

And Angelus is a massive nation too. I've seen nations claim to have more literally the day they were made.

As a clarification, Kain Irenicus is included in my blanket-ignore of the Shentavo bullshit.


Well well, like I give a damn. This is the person who cannot respond IC to my IC arguement. Then you have the gaul to say that I am rping bad? I am sorry but do you see me saying I am a god or an angel etc. I made my character a human first, then made him a vampire who is still rather weak. Just because I made a damn good arguement and you couldn't stand up for yourself IC OR OCCly.

I am fine with hypocrits IC, just do not be one OOCly. And when someone is argueing IC, you have to respond ICly or is that too obvious? Shall I repost my arguement to you? Because you certainly did not respond. You did this twice in the thread by the way, and you expect me not to get angry? If youa re wondering the thread is at the bottom.

I am fine with you ingoring Rave Shentavo, fair enough she does go into extremities but that is her rp style. But why me? I have done nothing of the sort. Why not ban EVERYONE who has been rp with her? Oh sorry have you forgotten Little Danya? Ignore her too, she was sired by a Shentavo. Me. So you better ignore her too even though she rps well and puts realisitc characters. Not fair Daniella? Too bad, your a part of the "Shentavo Bullshit".

Here is my arguement,

(OOC HOW THE HELL CAN I CONTINUE TO ARGUE IF YOU ARGUE OOCLY? Give Kain an IC answer dammit, a religous guy did this earlier. Now respond IC, and I do not think "It just is" is going to do well eh? Now is this OOC post IC?

OOC: You must be joking. How can you argue OOC? Well, I think I'm doing a pretty decent job of it.

The problem with Christianity is that it is filled with statements that have to be taken in blind faith. Lucifer is evil, his spawn are evil, it just is. God is good, all the time, it just is. You sin, someone has to pay the penalty for your sin, it just is. The wages of sin is death, it just is. No one can go to the Father save through Jesus Christ, it just is.

You obviously know very little about WhiteWolf vampire, or have even a decent amount of knowledge concerning the bible. It is amusing to me to watch you act so lost.

Now, this is a free form gaming forum, so I will never say that you cannot play the vampire you want to play, HOWEVER, basing it off of stuff you know little about is pretty enteraining. It sounds like you found Vampires to be really cool, decided to take away what made them vampires in the first place, and came up with something that was some sort of "best of both worlds".

Seraphic Vampire... That is such a contradictory statement...

OK, I really did not want to do this, but let me explain in simple terms.

OOC: You must be joking. How can you argue OOC? Well, I think I'm doing a pretty decent job of it.


Well considering that this entire arguement is IC, you cannot let my character trail off and you talking to me in OOC. You still not have responded to Kain IC. Answer KAIN not ME. This is not an OCC arguement, otherwise some of my own views and things I have said would be different.

The problem with Christianity is that it is filled with statements that have to be taken in blind faith. Lucifer is evil, his spawn are evil, it just is. God is good, all the time, it just is. You sin, someone has to pay the penalty for your sin, it just is. The wages of sin is death, it just is. No one can go to the Father save through Jesus Christ, it just is.


I know that, Kain certainly knows that. But when MY character puts that exact IC point, you cannot answer IC so you agree to me OOCly? Does not help one bit, just makes your character inable to face Kain's acusations.

You obviously know very little about WhiteWolf vampire, or have even a decent amount of knowledge concerning the bible. It is amusing to me to watch you act so lost.

And at what point did I have to conform to your ideas of vampires? I have chosen what I want my vampire to be like. And yes I DO have a decent knowledge of the bible the point is MY CHARACTER DOES NOT. The words "ROLEPLAY" spring to mind? That my character was not brought up in a christian enviorment. Oh it is amusing to you to see me roleplay effectively huh? Well I am having a good chuckle at this stupidity.

Now, this is a free form gaming forum, so I will never say that you cannot play the vampire you want to play, HOWEVER, basing it off of stuff you know little about is pretty enteraining.

Wait...wait a minute. I do know this stuff pretty well. I am basing it from many different sources. Soulreaver, numerous tales of vampires, films, etc. Yes it is a free forum and have you ave contridicted yourself. You say I can choose whatever I want and that I am basing it on stuff that I do not know? You obviouslty are not familer with Soulreavers interpretation. And also I have used other peoples examples.

It sounds like you found Vampires to be really cool, decided to take away what made them vampires in the first place, and came up with something that was some sort of "best of both worlds".

Yes that might be true aprt from the fact I DID NOT MAKE THIS CHARACTER A VAMPIRE. He started off human and ws sired by another player. Rave Shentavo. And have you wondered why Kain is immune to sunlight? Immune to religous symbols and the like? Apart from the fact that other players have done the same, and that it is the way I CHOSE to do it, because earlier on you said anyone can choose to do it in a way they want. But I do have a very good reason for it. Ever think how Kain ended up like he is? All green and with cloven talons? Well there are some pretty damn good reasons, which I will not say because that is still to be revealed, but rest assured that the fact that a half angel half vampire sired him, and he had the effect of a demon around him DID do some pretty strange things to him.

Seraphic Vampire... That is such a contradictory statement...

Oh sorry what? Are you trying to attempt to put down someones ideas? Someones interpretation and idea? I believe that you said earlier this is a free forum. And yes it seems wierd but rave is a damn Seraphic Vampire, shewas turned later on in her existance. Or is that too impossible to comprehend that someone id not look in a god damnbook and say, "hey I want to make a character like that!." No, as far as I know the idea is pretty god damn original. And you have the gall to say it is hypocritical when it allows so many good rp situation and it is FANTASY? Oh no, you want to make the idea of vampires all sterotypical and all the same and you will be damned if someone does something original and unusual, with some pretty damn good reasons for doing it. Ask rave Shentavo, I am sure she would love to hear how hypocritical you think her idea is. At least you can rest in the knowledge that your characters are not hypodcritical. Oh wait.....

Now I am willing to put these stupid arguements aside, if you actually looked at the god damn facts and my rp style. Kain is pretty damn vunerable, I have not taken "the best from both worlds". Oh sorry, did that involve mental torture? Did that involve not being able to return to his family and a nation he loved so much? That he faces so many damn curses, like his vision which he can only see death. I sure have made my character's life a breeeze when he is almost totally alone, totally ashamed due to his crimes against the people who saved him, and is being hunted ruthlessly and when he finally puts up an arguement which you ave to respond to OOCly to get out of, what am I supposed to do then hmmm?

How can you argue OOC and IC? Well, I think I'm doing a pretty decent job of it. Now you have to learn how to argue IC and OCCly, by actually responding to my IC statement huh? Now I am being nice, I could have gone on for far longer, so learn your god damn lesson and respond to my IC post.

Sorry but I have to defend myself and this ignore, and if Angleus doesn't respond to this in any good way, I do not really see the point in rping with him anyway, it is just stupidity in a profile. I am close to ingoring him myself. /rant.

I think he does not look at the facts. Now I am not saying you are or you are not, but from what I have seen it does not seem to be the case.

Angelus, you seem to be far too judgemental. Fine I am happy with you ignoring Rave Shentavo. Your loss. Some people do not like to rp that way, but I do and I respect that you do not.

Funny when you only ignored me when you could not respond to my perfectly good arguement. Oh am I sorry? Is a rational arguement Godmodding? Should my character no ask these embarrising questions which might make your character and entire religous society look like idiots? Well damn, people better watch thier character's mouths, they might get ignored for your lack of rp ability to respond when you have to blubber out the truth OCCly.!

And from what I have seen of your IC statements, when the going gets tough for your character IC the weak get OOC.

*ahem* “She”

(will edit in a moment to make a comment, after all, I'm a bastard like the rest of them)

Sorry she then. I cannot be bothered to put she in, just assume please.

My spacewank comment was put in for humor, and a little self-justification. Please don't bring me into this...

Fine I do not care anymore, I am sure you can keep your smug little face when someone annoys you when you hit the ingore cannon. Just remember, how many good rpers are there out there? Really? You seem to ingnoring some of the best ones and then saying "the reasons are many and personal" Ahuh. Way to go, your respect level has plummeted when you to state why and respond to my arguement like you have with everyone else. By not.

Keep ignoring good rpers, keep kidding yourself that you are an excellent rper with characters that can stand up to any arguement realisiticly and strongly even when thier very beliefs are destroyed by one persons arguments. Oh wait....can you really kid yourself in thinking that?

You have been ignored by myself if you cannot respond to this OOC arguement. Good riddance I have had enough of this bullshit from you, and I am sure other people have.

I like the idea of the idea of ignoring everyone out of spite, alas I'm a softy.

I've eaten a hydrocodone and drank four budwiesers on top of it.

I like the idea of the idea of ignoring everyone out of spite, alas I'm a softy.

I've sat here and smoked pot for like three hours, rambling in the GENERAL forum of all f--- places, and then it comes down to this. I've eaten a hydrocodone and drank four budwiesers on top of it. Still I'm awake, staring like a f--- zombie at the computer screen which is filled with you morons ranting, which while amusing could easily drive me insane. Midgets and meathooks indeed. To a person who is used to 12+ hours of sleep a day, insomnia is a strange and terrible foe.

Because they're stupid. That's why everyone does everything.

Word.

Preach it.

Pot ruins the body but uplifts the soul.

Or something.

Err… I’m gonna get a good kick in the head for this, but:

Kain is quite vulnerable…

Can you add “Without his Demon Sword” because I’ve seen you take a ton of White Prosperous to the face and then regenerate it in less then a minute? Out of everyone you seemed to take the most damage… yet you are still apparently quite vulnerable.

Just as a clarification, White Prosperous is probably nastier then Napalm, and you were covered in that stuff.

Not that it really makes a difference, I expect powerful vampires soak that stuff like it was water but I just don’t like to here you constantly claim to be a fledgling yet take them damage like character, who really, really isn’t a fledgling. The magic stuff is ok, because as a mortal you can know that… but damn you character is a tough fledgling.

I’m okay with powerful, but please be consistent. I spent half of my conference thread laughing (I shouldn’t have but damn, WV could actually back up his powers and is considered one of the really good role-players of NS)

I know you don’t use the WoD system and that’s why I’ve left you and Rave alone, well I did but recently I had a huge rant at a post, which annoyed me… referring to how you vampire role-players can be just as arrogant OOC as you are IC.

I like the RP’s you lot do; otherwise I wouldn’t be in them. Angelus got a lot of it wrong and I agree with a large part of your rant.

Meh… I’ve decided that I’ve seen you bait enough n00bs to justify my own rant.

Finally, a point not pointed at you… please, please will people stop RPing thousand year old vampires who don’t act like they’ve been alive for a thousand years… being that old and drinking blood really messes you up… you will almost always grow mental problems as well as have trouble keeping up with the modern world… maybe I’m thinking too much of “Interview with a Vampire” (the book, though the film isn’t too bad) which covers immortality well I think as you watch Lastat slowly loose contact with the modern world because his Childer isn’t teaching him it anymore.

Anyone who thought the sequel film “Queen of the Damned” was any good… I really don’t like you.

Additional for more postage!

This is the most chaotic and damaging thread I’ve seen for a long time, I can burn my bridges all at once here with the amount of Rant’s I can dish out.

Oh yes that thing with phosperous. I apologies most fully from that. That was godmodding I admit that now, I have learned from that from the vampire meeting. Again my apologies for that I certainly I am not planning to do that again.

Oh and by the way, just as a little tid bit of infomation I should be telling you, Kain will be losing the sword soon. I agree with you, that is one of the reasons Kain will be losing the sword, so that he will be far weaker, but lose some of his mental problems as a result. (I really should not be telling you that but hey, you might have figured it out)

And Kain is only 30 and yes he has a ton of mental problems. I will take this into acount as he gets old. Thanks for pointing these other things out.

I agree with you totally with some of these and if you notice in some of my more recent threads I have powered down Kain since then I think. That vampire meeting taught me a few things, people perfer weaker characters because they are more realisitic.

I thought I put without the sword...huh go figure. I thought I put it.

Fair enough Kain… I think that one was the one that’s got under my skin, plus you seem to have stopped the whole shouting at n00bs thing, which really wasn’t helping anyone as n00bs as they would become rather defensive and god mode more (I’ve seen it happen!)

Yours sincerely I don’t have a problem with Angelus, after all, her OOC points weren’t invalid they were just in the completely wrong topic… personally I would of ranted in this thread (which is now the rant thread) and then linked it in Celbornes thread to promote OOC argument in this thread

I just really, really don’t like the idea of 10’000 year old vampires talking to people as though they hadn’t lived for 10’000 year and had witnessed… well, history.

My vampire character Varya has only lived for about 25 years (I think, I wrote it down somewhere) and she already has problems, mainly she hates men with a strong IC reason for that… that and she gained her power in such a way that vampires with the ability to see aura’s (and recognise it) and will want to kill her unless they are Sabbat.

Lets not even touch the Malkavian I have planned. Can you say Fugue and Sanguinary Animatism (sp) coupled with low self-control and a penchant attitude?

And the Toreador anti-tribue who has multiple personality syndrome after acting double agent for too long and is fascinated so much with the sadism of battle she become entranced… damn… I messed that character up almost as bad as the Malkavian (who has to be mad by nature).

"Geordi, what is ignore?"
"Ignore means when you don't pay attention to someone."
"Oh. Do you ignore us Geordi?"
"I try too. Believe me, I try."
"Geordi, you are smart."
"LA LA LA LA LA LA LA! I'm not listening!"

I find it quite amusing that an OOC thread about "people I won't RP with" is longer and has more viewage than just about any RP thread out there.
<-merely contributing to the problem =P

OOC: Ok, several thousand ships is a bit much, but it is easier to swallow than owning several starsystems..."

Hmm? :P

Well, I agree with those star systems, though. Nobody needs multiple star systems - in all those sci-fi books nations have maybe 30 billion people - and have maybe 10 planets, a couple of systems, maybe.

500 million nations don't need entire star systems..

..but several thousand ships are a bit hard to swallow, too :P

Also, same goes for a lot of elven characters, a 1,600 year old elven assasin is going to be very powerfull, but is going to have some mental issues. Remember, characters that are very old, are going to have seen history, Theallas for instance saw first hand the horrors of the Third Reich, he saw WW2 and WW1 first hand, he also saw the crusades and many other great changes in history, because of that, he thinks that life can be very futile, at times he thinks that life is not worth living. The only reason he is allive is because he has people who he lives for, namely his nation, Thelas.

Seeing as Santa Barbara got to post up an advertisement for his thread…

Woot! I have a TV thread for random crap! Though I think I’ll enforce RP (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=88786)

First and foremost, I would like to state that I AM an arrogant bitch. There are some things I accept because I like them, and there are things that I do not accept because I don't like them.

Now, this is a free form gaming forum, people are allowed to play whatever they want, whether it be a simplistic character of limited potential, or a vast masterwork of character creation, coming up with something that is complicated and very in-depth.

As for my not arguing IC with you, I would like to point out that I was not about to violate the IC ignore Kain is under. I will not roleplay with you because you are a godmoder in the extreme. You took all of the great parts of being a vampire and seperated them completely from what balances out the power levels in Vampire.

I've played vampire for years, and now I cannot play anymore because I am always in demand to run games. I know so much about V:tM that I now realize how utterly moronic it is to be so ubsurdly obsessed with it. Yes, Vampires are cool, but they are DAMNED. They are monsters, evil in their very existance. In fact, the vast majority of Vampires are in love with the fact that they are monsters. Even the vaunted Camarilla is filled with Vampires that can no longer use Humanity because in doing so, they would have lost control of themselves centuries before.

Even the Inconnu are monsters. The paragons of virtue that have mastered the path of Golconda are simply less-evil than those depraved lunatic Sabbat that roam the streets.

Being a vampire is not about doing good things, not about being seraphic, or any other pointless bullshit that I've seen spouted here. It's all CRAP, and that is why I ignore you.

You could be the best damn writer on this site, and I would still ignore you. Not because of your ability as a player, but because your premise is full of shit.

I have a vampire character that I've been playing for several years now. His name is James Starke, and he's a fifth-generation Malkavian [i]Antitribu[/u].

Yes, he's incredibly powerful, and is VERY messed up in the head. His insanities make him very hard to play, and his power makes him a PRIME target for other vampires wishing to better their station. Everywhere he goes he gets challenged, and he constantly fights to stay alive because of the potency in his blood.

He's dangerous, cold, merciless. The epitome of the monster that vampires have hidden deep within themselves. He's not comical, he's not the lovably deranged crazy that most people view Malkavians as. No, he's a killer. A calculating, cold, evil, killer.

Now, I'm not saying that all vampires are like him, but I'm saying that the older the vampire gets, the more of a target he/she becomes, and the less control s/he has over his/her own consciousness.

Those are the consequences of being a monster.

The verdict:

Everybody who posted in this thread is an arrogant idiot. Including myself.

Case closed.

Anyone who thought the sequel film “Queen of the Damned” was any good… I really don’t like you. :shock: I think I love you......

*hated that movie with a passion*

Nice pic there, now to read the thread to see if my name is on this highly distinguished list.....

5. Capsule Corporation [hoorah i can't roleplay!] Can I challenge this? i never heard you complain about my roleplaying sills before... everyonbe I have RPed with has had no complaints... if anything I get after people for crappy roleplay.

is it the borg tech thing still? Cuz that means nothing to me lol I don't even really use it.

*is most definitely amused*

Me? Arrogant? Naw, wherever did you get that idea?

I am most definitely a bitch, and I am quite proud of it.

-angel

OMG, we must exchange emails some time there darlin'. I am a supreme dick and we would get along like PEAS and CARROTS!

No, you can't. Case closed.

Borgtech is still ignored, and I have stated three times now that the emboldened phrases are not necessarily the reason I am ignoring someone. They are comical ancedotes displayed as a mockery only.

Oh, and I added a few people to the list.

Let Angleus ignore you. Angleus is just removing all the good rpers from being able to play with him/her.

Kain:

Keep on believing that, one day you might convince yourself it is really true.

Ah huh. Not me who is losing out, I can still roleplay with all of these great roleplayers. From what I have seen from your rp skills, I am not missing out on much, as you cannot even rp when you are totally wrong and your character cannot even reply. You ahve to do it OOC.

Keep thinking that you are so much better than everyone else, when you are not exactly a brillaint rper yourself from that bull**** you pulled on me. Using OOC to get out of a sticky situation for your IC. Utter rubbish.

Look, you wormy piece of shit, I stayed OOC for that entire discussion. Not once did I say a single thing in that thread that was IC, and it is entirely not my fault that you cannot debate your way out of a paper bag. I was stating OOC reasons why your character concept is fundamentally flawed.

Furthermore, I stated it quite plainly that I was going to have nothing to do with you IC. I ignored you, remember? You do not exist to Angelus in-character, so even if any of the Collective would have cared enough to debate religious righteousness with a vampire, they most certaintly would not be debating it with a vampire that does not exist to them.

So, go ahead and continue to wave that flag around, it only makes you look more like an idiot.

Okay, Kain, Angelus, knock it off. Both of you.
