I’m just being aggressive for no reason? I’m the one who’s being aggressive for no reason. Heh. Okay.

(But yes, I apologize and will try to tone it down. Coming from _you_, however…)

Tell you what: I’ll make you a deal. I stop cursing, and you lay out in simple and clear sentences why it is that you think I’m likely to be a scum, taking into account everything that’s happened on all days.

Okay? Deal?

I’d prefer it if you did it right now, but tomorrow is fine if you must. Assuming we’re both still around.

I’m sure whenever you have a working keyboard will be fine. 🙂

Seriously, **Visorslash** , I’m sorry, but you’ve reaped what you sowed here from even before Day 1. You were abrupt, unfriendly, and not just self-admittedly aggressive toward others, but _proudly_ so. Basically you told us: “Deal with it, suckers, this is how I play.”

Okiedoke, that’s fine and dandy. But with behavior like that, you surely can’t be that surprised not to have received roses and hugs in return for your rebel-without-a-cause attitude. Neither can you expect much agreement with your opinions when you don’t share any of your thought processes behind them, and don’t seem to change these opinions as new information is (admittedly slowly) revealed.

So in short, please don’t lecture us on how to behave before you acknowledge your own behavior, and how it might have generated the responses it has.

Edited to add: Also, if you’re really drunk, don’t post. The mods frown on drunk posting, and besides, your comments are almost impossible to read.

Now back to the game. I hope **pizzaguy** is okay; he hasn’t been online here in 24+ hours, last time I checked anyway.

I’m no tluecturing you. I am drunk.

I playu aggressibely. SO what? I didn;t saty fucking liusten, or fucking use your eyes. That is bad. Why you words liek tht, ni neeed. I might say I am aggresive, but I don’t force peope to do stuff, and I dony say fucking shit as well. I prefer a no swearing game. Makes for more politeness. Eh, I am being impolite now, but it ndoesn;t matter. 😃

I sent a PM to pizzamod when the Day first started, and still haven’t heard back from him after several days. I think the game might be on pause.

Please don’t worry about it, **Silver Jan**. Just take care of yourself and hopefully have some fun with the game. (Or read a good book. ;))
