So yeah, I mean, you saw it coming, you knew it was coming...its heeeeeeere!
Honestly, Im not the one with the issues here, but since BK apparently is, I figured if he wasn't going to unblock me I might as well just do it here where at least I know he'll see it, and therefore should feel hopefully obligated to give some time and reply...so yeah....
Um, I dunno, Ive never made a conflict reso topic before, but it has come to this, so I guess, yeah, whatever...
Uh, so, BK blocked me...for like, no reason, because I only had to talk to him about a very important issue regarding the PPV, which needed to be discussed, and I guess that I came on a little strong and maybe got a bit confrontational about it, but...I mean, it was a nececarry issue, and I honestly feel BK's short temper (at least with me) works against him, when I have to discuss something important, I feel he ends up just yelling at me. Well not yelling, but I mean, talking annoyed and stuff.
Um, this is an example, but there were other times, when I would be talking to BK and if I tried to talk about an issue Id end up being yelled at...
In this case, BK was like "YEAH DO WHAT YOU WANT" boom, blocked. THat is not a good way to settle a very important discussion, which was nececarry, and as a mod, I feel like he should have carried out the discussion, a bit more calmly than he did, and not just drop it off abruptly...when I sent (through Chef) apologies, and requests that he unblock me I was denied, being that that was YESTERDAY and I am still blocked, I shall request for him to read this and I dunno answer?
BK what's your problem with me? I get that I can be annoying sometimes (>_>, <_<) But you take it to like a new level...I feel like if Im constantly being like...yelled at. So yeah, vent all you want, you can even be like "I HATE YOU" and then we'll give ACW a show and they'll all be happy, but really I just kinda wanna be unblocked <_<

Rule #1:
it is necessary to spell necessary correctly.
'nececarry' is not correct.

Hardly, it's a conflict, we're trying to resolve it. Also, Rena, we'll let you be the spelling bitch when you start using capital letters all the time. EDIT: Also, if BK was acting the way Freeman portrays it then I'm definitely on his side, it's one thing for a normal person to do that but for a mod to do it is somewhat a display of lack of control. However, I'll wait to hear BK's side. DOUBLE EDIT: Man Freeman, you must have really low self-esteem, you type "Umm" in your internet sentences dude.

Probably starting this off, it would be better to respond to Mainer's comment to sort of introduce my little rant right here. Now, I understand that I am a mod, and that I do have to display some control when talking to people - which I do. There are a lot of things I contemplate on going off of, but I decide that it's probably the best to leave it alone or not comment on it at all. But you've got to understand, I'm not only a mod - I'm a human being. I do have limits. I can deal with people asking me questions, I can deal with people asking for my input on stuff, but when someone asks me over and over - and doesn't seem to stop with the questions. That's when I snap. I've known Jason Freeman for almost two years now, and in those two years I can't remember any real redeeming qualities about him, which is sad.
If you talked to me two years ago or so, I would've said that Freeman is a bright up and comer, and although he asks a lot of questions - he gets the job done, but that doesn't seem to be the case these days.
These days, constantly on AIM I'm being asked questions about how he should feud with this person, or if he should write about something, or if he should leave this way, or if he should do this. The kid has become totally dependent on the opinion of others and lacks creativity, which again, is sad. When he could be organizing his time to write segments or think of plots for storylines, he spends his time playing video games, and then has the nerve to ask me to help him. I offered to help him become good again, and I gave him tips - tips he didn't seem satisfied with because he kept asking me for more. I told him to become good in ACW, you must be consistent, and since I've told him that - he has showed very little effort in contributing segments to the show. He has showed very little effort in contributing ideas to the feud with Train or Steele, which makes THEM look bad. It also makes me look bad for referencing Freeman to them to feud with.
I told Dan White that you couldn't be double booked on a PPV, because from my understanding of the rules, you couldn't. But not one day after, not two days, after - but THREE days after he finds out about this, and continues to barrage me of IMs questioning to why he can't be double booked. Looking at his track record, should he even be allowed to be double booked in a show? I went off on him because he kept asking me why he couldn't be double booked. The simple answer was he couldn't, but did he take that? No. He continued to ask me why and question why he couldn't be booked. So the way I saw it, from the two years of being annoyed, the fact that I still had a main event to write, a few segments, and a newsletter - I couldn't be bothered anymore. So I blocked Freeman. In the end, he was still double booked, so he should've been perfectly satisfied. But even then, he's continuing to harass Train to harass me about unblocking him.
I planned on unblocking him after 7DS, you can ask The Senator or anyone else I told, but after making this topic I'm questioning if I should. Actually, I'm not. I'll eventually unblock him, but when I feel it's ready.
End rant.

Yeah, fair point. For the record, I was meaning to come to you about the whole double booking thing, BK, because I wasn't sure whether or not to believe Freeman, but I couldn't contact you in time (I was away Wed-Fri).

I've known Jason Freeman for almost two years now, and in those two years I can't remember any real redeeming qualities about him, which is sad. Ah come on, man, was that really neccesary? Okay, so first of all...yeah, sometimes Ill ask you questions. But mostly its just to get a second opinion on some stuff out of curiosity, which you usually will just blatantly blow off. And even if they are important questions you'll refuse to answer...and yeah, I respect your opinion, as you're now a three time ACW champion and have been here for years, so sometimes there are things I would just like your suggestions with. For example, when I asked what you thought I needed to change character wise to be succesful, which you then proceeded to basically blow off, and when I asked if I should just repackage Freeman or start a new character altogether, and you refused to give any opinion whatsoever. I didnt add anything with Train because I was freakin busy this past month, and I really needed to take the break that I am taking so that I can get back into things, and BECOME consistent, and start being more reliable. Yeah, you can say what you want about that, sure. But with Steele? I absolutely did add stuff, I started the whole thing basically by myself, the first half was MOSTLY me BTW, even though by the end I wasnt really doing anything. The first part, Steele wasnt doing too much, Ill have you know THAT. THEN when Steele was "injured" with the faked injury (which BTW, MY idea when Steele needed to take a break for two weeks or so)....I thought of a way to bring him back and lead into Omega Effect, and wrote out a whole long thing that would lead up perfectly...mostly by myself, though yes, you did influence me with one idea.... Then YOU are the one who books Steele and throws off every one of my plans, which WOULD have worked. It was STEELE who also didnt put the plans in motion because he didnt send in match plans that I reminded him three times after the show was delayed. He was also the one that consistently handed in our promos a couple hours after deadline (BTW, Steele, I dont hold any of this against you...my point is against BK, not you..sorry for any defamation of character that comes along as a result >_>), and I should have you know that THAT is what pulled our feud down. I was on top of things mostly, UNTIL of course you book him...right? So then my plans are screwed up, and I only found out right before a show, couldnt contact Steele, becuase he wasnt really online (And randomly dissapears and stops talking in the middle of convos anyways >_>), then I mentino that all my plans are screwed up, and you know what YOU do? You then completely start screaming at me, blaming ME for not writing about the feud (Despite the fact that the WHOLE POINT of Steele's injury was to DROP the feud for a bit until he's ready to come back), and say that its MY fault you forgot. Yeah, BK, its MY fault. You dont apologize or anything, and I wasnt even mad AT you...you completely scream at me, calling me a "dumb jackass" and accusing me of acting like a "little bitch". For a situation which wasnt even my fault, and in my opinion I find that very far from mod-like.... So yeah, I did a lot of stuff for that feud, which both you AND Steele seem to forget, and it wasnt until the end where the feud went out of my hands, Steele improvised and was basically doing stuff like adding Kudo without my consent (not that I had a problme, but he didnt even tell me) so yeah, then it became kinda hard to keep up with everything. DONT say I didnt add to that feud, okay? THEN the double booking. Yeah, I was booked in both the tag match and the Train match. I was gonna do the injury thing (even if it was a bit of a joke) from the Train match but the tag match was first, so there was no logical reason NOT to wrestle in the tag match. I asked BK to help me think up a reason, since HE was the one saying I couldnt be double booked no matter what, DESPITE me telling him the Train match wasnt even real, it was just a joke, and the whole feud was just a joke. But he completely goes off on me, and while I think that I was completely calm about it, he could not just continue the discussion...he had to end up being like "Fine do what you want" and then completely blocking me. I would have much rather continued the discussion rather than him giving me my way just to make me go away. I felt there was no way to AVOID the double booking in this case, and hoped for an exeption, considering the WHOLE TRAIN FEUD WAS A JOKE THE WHOLE TIME He then completely refuses to answer me, even though I had Train tell him a couple times I was sorry (although I really dont feel like I did anything wrong...) but I just really wanted to talk to him, and just took it here as an excuse to get him to actually read what Im writing and respond, but honestly...Im sorry if BK cant find a "redeeming quality" in me, because I always enjoyed talking to him, and considered him a pretty good friend...in fact, I was getting freakin annoyed because of all the times I wanted to tell him something or other or talk to him about something or other on AIM and I couldnt, even though I could see he was online from the boards, which drove me frickin crazy...but whatever man. Im just gonna tell my side here, and say that while I guess I can be annoying with some questions, I dont feel that you handled it well, and feel that you were constantly getting angry at me for things that I dont think I did wrong. Also, I hope to prove everybody wrong once I make my return by being frickin awesome and reliable >_> Also, before I post this, I wanna bring up also one more thing, which is the whole you giving me advice thing...I was hoping when you said youd help me, you would give me advice like, with my CHARACTER, because I really had no idea what to do with him...and yeah, I asked for help, sorry, but all you told me was like "be consistent" "write on time" which being that Ive been told that by you (and others >_>) a million times, that OBVIOUSLY wasnt the help I was looking for, so dont put it off like you tried your hardest to help me but I just wasnt satisfied and kept coming back bugging you for more... Whatever, just respond, that Steele feud thing Im getting way too much heat from you and Steele over.

Although, it does reiterate something that I've previously made clear to a different mod, in that it's fine and well having an active mod team of 4 people, but only two of those (BK and Jonny) are regularly online on an instant messaging service. Senator is on occasionally, but it's generally later at night when it's harder to contact. And AK isn't online because she's a Goddess and understandably probably gets harrassed by everyone ever whenever she does. So basically, a lot of questions will be fired at the pair of you. I know that I ask each of you a question at least once a day.
Now I'm not suggesting mods are forced to spend more time online on an instant messaging service, but just a way to lighten the questions off you lot (and by my understanding, filtering out the questions could annoy you less >_>). Perhaps a revamped part of the ancient Welcome Board system, where certain people are given certain duties that are above the others in the fed, apart from mods, and they would be able to help out as much as others.
Even make the Creative Department even more official, and add another couple of people to it.
