The Battle Lines Are Drawn

I'll address the rest of this at naptime. #sacrifice #maturity #amidoinitrite

Come down off of it, Snoopy. I left XWA because your shitty admin couldn't quit bickering and, when confronted about this, tried to turn it on me and attack my ability as a GM without getting his facts straight that Riley was doing it because my computer was fucked.

Now, yes, MD went over to your site and posted with a character that he worked very hard upon, just to have you guys ban him, presumably out of intimidation of his mad skills. But the little thing you're skipping over is that we've had guys from XWA trolling in our shoutbox for weeks now in retaliation to me offering to help out XWA because it was dying, which your shit-brained head GM took as an attempt to snatch up all of the two RPers or so you had left. You conveniently forget that once EVPW was poised to return and suddenly had more members than XWA, you 'reverted' to our style. You leave out how you went around joking about how you quit EVPW because you didn't like the match you were booked into, even though you swear you had every intention of posting and we're just joking, although you had no deadline, hadn't signed in and said anything about it prior to about 6 hours before the deadline. You're leaving out that my "trying to get you fired" was simply sharing a few screen captures with your GM about the shit you talk about him behind his back.

You do a good job of spinning the story and treading lightly, backstepping so you never have to stand behind the things you do, but this isn't XWA, Justin. This is EVPW. We don't play politics. We're straight to the point.

Like you said, you guys can't control your members if they decide to come over here and act like shitheads, neither can I and I'm not going to condemn them for doing so in retaliation to the trolls. I'm also not going to take exception to members cutting shoot promos on XWA, bashing XWA or saying how they feel about it. EVPW is a place where we can all come and roleplay without having to worry about assholes whining that they're offended or trying to tread the water lightly to be P.C. or mindful of what someone on another site thinks. We're adults who are mature enough to not get bent out of whack over a bit of writing or someone else's opinion or at the mention of other feds.

If XWA guys are going to come over here and start shit, it will be reciprocated. If you have an issue with that, go take it up with your members. Don't come over here bitching at mine for returning the favor.

But if they do keep it up, know full and well that we've went to war, toe-to-toe with GHW, which was miles beyond XWA is both talent and activity and we didn't simply survive - we thrived. Member after member came to EVPW in search of the talent and the community that we offered until we became so intertwined that we finally made peace and merged together. If your boys keep it up, we have no issue with doing it again and the results will be no different. We have strength and loyalty as a community that someone from a place so broken as XWA, where over a half dozen admin bicker and fight among themselves while doing little to help the site, could only dream of.

Now, if you're interested in the little promo piece I'm working on entitled "Mr. Johnson" or are interested in having a match without silly word limitations, stick around. If you're just looking to plead with us to sit back and take your members' shit and not stand up for ourselves, then take that shit back to where it goes.

For some inexplicable reason XWA has a pertinacity for banning members who are good role players. This happens mostly due to immaturity at the admin level and their inability to handle other members who may disagree with their religious, political, or personal views. I witnessed this a lot during my time there and lead to my departure. They banned far too many good, solid members/role players on the site over stuff that was in no way ban worthy. It saddens me that XWA is in such a crappy state right now, but it does not surprise me at all. Honestly I am shocked that it has limped along for this long under people who are completely ill-equipped to GM an e-fed. There was so much potential for that place to be great at one point, but that day has long passed.

Yeah, I spent weeks stretching my anus out for that character. Have you no appreciation for art?

Would you prefer a Lemonparty stable instead?

I'm here to kindly ask that you lot please refrain from going to XWA just to post graphic images that nobody wants to see. We're not coming here trying to start trouble with you guys, yet we've got Vlad going there trying to get me fired from my GM spot, that Metal Dragon guy coming there and posting nasty picture and now Proggy coming here, badmouthing XWA along with people like Kasabian (whom I thought left XWA on good terms).

We're not trying to start a fed war. Some people on XWA badmouth Vlad and this place, I'll admit that. I don't do it, with the exception of me recently saying some mean things towards Vlad after what he pulled yesterday, but there are people who do it. So, I don't really mind Proggy's character/promo and anyone else who comes HERE and badmouths XWA. But please, don't come to our site with the specific purpose of starting drama. I'm asking nicely. We're two separate feds. There's no need to have tension between the two feds.

I did, my comment was merely in jest... hard to see that over the keyboard sometimes (tried to add the jest with a smiley)

EDIT: Damn, I missed the entire argument... Stupid timezones. After three pages, this may not be entirely relevant any more. I just wanted to clear my name.
