That has seriously almost made me puke.

Could you please take that down, Ms. Rah?

I agree with you 100%. That's really sad.

[The Senator]

110% agree'd with McKey there. Fortunatly I came too late to see the pics, but I don't need to see them to understand the horror perpetrated.

I asked Rena to make the topic because I knew that a) she'd be able to write it in a way that would make more sense and b) because I felt more people would take her seriously than if I made the topic.

Ah, and so the plot thickens.

In the light of that statement and some private communication I have had, I apologise to Rena for saying she broke a trust, as she evidently was only doing what was requested of her by another party. It would of course have saved us all a little stress if Rena had stated at the start what her ulterior purpose in posting was, but such is life.

As for Dan... it's your business entirely how you deal with your private matters, but the next time you want to raise an issue, have the balls to post it yourself if you want to be "taken seriously". You're more than capable of stringing a sentence or two together. So if you have any remaining questions that you want to ask, just post here or send a PM, and we'll sort this out once and for all. But we are not going to get into a game of Chinese Whispers.

All I was suggesting is that people are more likely to take Rena more seriously than me.

Speaking for myself, I would have taken it MORE serious if you had first posted it, since it is your problem, and not Rena's. As AK said, you're capable of reasonably presenting your case, and I think you sell yourself short by saying that people'd not take you as seriously.

I don't understand that assertion at all. I can't speak for anyone else, but I take EVERYONE here seriously, so long as they clarify what their concern is.

Before this goes wildly off-topic once again, my reasoning on the points that Rena raised for you is as follows:

I have not altered one word of any segment or match that has been submitted to me by you, by Rena, by Yoko, or by Scarlet, and I have had no requests from anyone else for any such edits. Therefore this "objection" by Yoko that Rena cited on your behalf must have taken place during an AIM session or chat if it happened at all, and has not resulted in any formal complaint or any "censorship" of any show content. It is clearly confined to the realm of personal contact, and I fail to see how that justifies you asking Rena to make the post that she made.

If you have an issue with anything that has been posted under the ACW banner, regardless of who originated it, I would ask you to either link to or quote the exact text that is relevant and we will investigate your complaint. If you wish for an explanation of the result of a match or matches, again this can be provided.

Otherwise, I would politely request that you keep your personal disputes off of these boards, and constrain them to private means of communication.

First, the quality points. Everyone knows I DID dock Rena and Sarin points...In like October or November. It's been discussed, it's in the past, it was a temporary punishment. I've done nothing of the sort since then, so I would like you to stop bringing it up in attacks against me, Rena.

I also want to say that I find it awful that you brought this up on the boards, this is not a public matter. It angers me that you would do this, and DD, it angers me that you would ask her to do this in public. I think this would upset Sarin too that you two dragged this into public.

Now onto the issue. Yes, I had a major major crush on Sarin. Yes, I was rejected. Yes, she then fell in love with DD and vice versa. Yes, they started dating. Yes, there was major conflict between us. Why? Because love is like that. When it's a case of "He likes her, but she likes this guy right here," someone is put into an uncomfortable position and fights spark.

Did I propose someone had to leave? Yes. But the entire time, I was proposing I leave, not one of them. I said, and I quote, "DD does the Fallout thing and is an important writer, and Sarin has yet to have a full run. I've done everything I've wanted to, so I can go with the least problems." This is because it would have been too hard to handle seeing them be lovey lovey in the chat and on the boards.

So DD said they'd break up and avoid the drama. Then immediately changed his mind, putting us back at square one. The solution? The solution was that they don't talk to me about each other, or flirt in public(boards/chat)

With that solution, we're all fine. No one is hurt.

About a week ago, there was a bit of drama. I didn't bring it up with you, AK, because it was solved in moments and I didn't feel it was worth prolonging. This is what Rena was talking about.

Sarin made a post calling DD honey. Now, Rena, you call everyone honey. But Sarin is not you. She doesn't. And she specifically called DD that. This was an obvious breach of our little agreement, and I brought it up with Sarin and DD. Rather than edit it myself in insane mod mode, I asked them to edit it. Sarin did, changing it to "golden-liquid-bees-make." This was mocking me and our agreement, and again instead of editing it, I asked her to edit it herself. She took it out and apologized the next day, end of that small conflict.

And that's that. I'm hurt that you(DD and Rena) felt this had to be discussed on here.

*Ahem*

I believe it is fair bet to say that this topic can be closed and any further conduct in this problem/conversation can be done outside the boards? Not my call, but my opinion. I shall attempt to end this all with a simple picture.

[Lass Sarin]

I'd like to sincerely thank Alicia for stepping in and, once again, preventing us from killing each other. If you ran for God (or Supreme Czar of Woz), you'd have my vote.

Anyway, I asked Yoko to unlock this so I can have my say, and so you all know where my position is on this matter. It's important for you all to know, because I seem to be at the center of every issue. And trust me, it's not a position I recommend you be in.

Rena, I'm thoroughly disappointed in you. Even if Dan asked you to write this, one would expect that you'd have enough common sense to deny his request. Apparently, one would be disappointed. It was immature, childish, not to mention humiliating to all parties involved.

Yoko, Dan, and I have sorted out the disagreements between us and there was absolutely no conflict to be resolved. In essence, this whole topic should never have been created. Unfortunately, there are those in ACW who are afflicted with a condition so bizarre it's perplexing to put into words: If they're not stirring up drama or trouble, they die.

That being said, I'd appreciate it if we don't add any further fuel to the fire by whispering about this issue on the chat, in PMs, in AIM, in MSN, wherever the case may be. We certainly would not give an alcoholic a castle full of booze, and we don't need to give above mentioned people any more gossip, either.

It is my wish that we move on from this troubling issue and put it behind us, and quite frankly never mention it again, if I am ever to hold my head up high amongst you all.

Thank you, once again, Alicia, and thank you, Yoko, for taking crap shot after crap shot to the balls and walking away a stronger person every time.
