Don't you want to drag out whatever concerns people may have with you in this public forum so that they may freely protest without fear of being intimidated by any authority they may perceive?
You wrote a civil letter to the Staff about quitting the game.
I respected that.
Then I learn that you immediately jump into a passive aggressive fit on the lj of someone who *does* like the game. So much for respect.
I waited for you at the resturant. I thought we were going to talk. When you didn't show up I figured that it could wait. Why in the hell would you be the least bit intimidated by me?
I was at least amused by the degree of personal venom I garnered:
"the logic is that if Mike doesn't follow the rules in the book, then we can't succeed at anything."
Ooh. A straight out attack on my integrity.
Really? Which book? So, the Sorcery rules from the PG aren't WoD? Or is it that I just owe you a justification each time I use something that surprises you?
Say, speaking of that - what book did your bullshit godess and *your* reincarnated demi-god come from Ben? I'm curious about the citywide powers and chop-less effects that people tolerated in your changeling game.
Hell, everything I took was straight out the books. Blame White Wolf if you need to be a victim. That goes for anyone who can't cope with a little innovation on the part of the Staff.
Virtually every game I've attended in the last year has played fast and loose with rules in order to craft a story worth being part of. Often, I've been happy to suspend in order to have a good time. I've certainly never thrown a tantrum over a blog over any of them.
I can't belive this shit. I *haul ass* from Indy every game. Kate and Eric and I spend *days a month* trying to craft a game worth contributing to. And with no game fee as a rule, nobody is buying our sweat.
I work on our game. I invest in it. So I'm angry at this sideways attack on my character and the game I help run. Next time have the courage to make it to my face.
Fine. Go to a different game. Vote with your feet. Enjoy. Save your vitriol for them when they can't seem to find ways to validate you in every way.
