gone...

[angelous]

Konaa is right. I know I'm probably the last person you want to hear from right now, but I don't want you to leave just because of me. put me on ignore or whatever, I don't care if you do, but I don't want you to leave just because I went a little bit overboard when I was complaining.

I don't care if you don't talk to me for a month or whatever, but just because we had an argument, and I'm still here doesn't mean you have to leave. I mean its not like we actually see each other during the day, so we can easily avoid each other if that is what you want.

EDIT: I'm not telling you what to do, and I'm not yelling at you or acting like a jerk, but to be honest there are people who would miss you if you leave (myself included).

Well honestly if she's too afraid to come back or something she shouldn't be on the site. I won't say anything against angelous like I promised, but I will say one thing. If you left the site because of a silly argument between you two on the fucking C-box of all places you're just a stupid coward. You all know I'm brutally honest, but if a member is running away because of a silly argument on the tiny little insignificant C-box I hope they don't ever come back.

Note: That would've been my first response had I known the exact situation.

So is that why the 'cbox' thread was made? Because something happened with Larxy on the cbox?

There have been multiple arguments over the past few days within the cbox.

I can't say that I'm surprised that you left. Annoyed that you left, yes. But, not surprised. But, I suppose you're still upset at me for doing my job, so I guess you probably won't listen to me anyway.

It is even more annoying that you left so mysteriously. Won't even tell us exactly what your problem is from your side of things, which is dire in understanding what is going on in your head. Kinda disrespectful toward your friends here. You didn't even actually say goodbye.

From what I was told this seems to be very childish to me. I think she is being over dramatic about this. Avenger was doing the right thing I don't think she should be all that pissed at him.

[windy]

She didn't specify exactly...

She just said 'laters'.

Perhaps she's just taking a break?

Hopefully so.

I think anything I say will probably just make her feel worse, so I'll keep it brief:

If you're reading this, then you should know that no matter how impossible it seems, it's never too late to fix things. I know I sometimes wonder if what I contribute to this place is worth the trouble I cause, but for you that's definitely a no-brainer...

And if you're not leaving, that would make me terribly pleased, to put it lightly.

While I had wanted to simply show that I would be gone, I would like to take a moment to straighten up some things before I return to my break.

For one, I won't be gone forever, though, some of these posts are rather tempting me to never come back. I didn't mean for this thread to cause such a ruckus. When I left the v1 of this board, no one did or said anything. I'm a bit surprised at the sudden attention, good or bad, though, it's rather embarrassing all the same. I was thinking, like last time, people wouldn't mind or care, so I suppose I was mistaken. Anyway, I will be gone for the week, that much is for sure.

Secondly, this has little to do with the initial fight with Asa. Yes, he did apologize, but I've come to realize his words are rarely backed up by action or acknowledgment of his deeds. I accept his apology, but really his words mean little to me at this point.

The arguments that took place Monday also have nothing to do with anything. One was a mere flamer who insisted on calling me a stupid woman every few minutes, and yet nothing was done to this person in means of telling him to stop or getting a warning from the mods. Odd, seeing how myself and Asa almost earned a ban for a fight that was really started by our admin.

Which brings me to my next point. Temp, if you had done your job, then I wouldn't be utterly disgusted with you like I am. Your actions on the cbox were the most shocking to me. Not only did you start the fight over again, though Asa is at fault for this as well, when two of our members finally got everyone cooled down, but trying to change the topic by bringing up politics or mentioning those 'little earthquakes that have hit China and Japan' was not amusing, nor helpful. Especially when I have friends and a past boyfriend over there that I'm worried about. In all honesty, Tempest, your half-assed attempts and generally shallow demeanor were appalling. If anything, that would be what I'm the most upset by. Even more so than your last post on this thread.

It's tempting to leave... I admit it. Especially when I want to spitefully do so in response to some of these replies. But I'm not... I don't think I could bare to leave the ones who have called out to me and asked me not to. It would be too selfish of me to leave you all. That, and I don't want to make anyone upset over just stupid ole me.

So, that said, I hope I cleared some things up. I'm sorry for the vagueness that threw everyone off. I had intended to write everyone who needed to be informed a pm, which I had ready, but then I saw these recent posts and decided I might as well voice my thoughts here, and not because you or anyone called me out, Temp.

And if you're wondering if I'll ever go this far again, then yes. If you're so bold as to post insults about one of my friends on the cbox, then you'd better watch your back.

Again, I apologize for any unnecessary worry. Now, if you'll excuse me, I will return to my cave and emerge when the time is right.


P.S. Temp, I would have listened to you. You're the one that never returns my messages when I try to talk to you, you know.

[Konaa]

Do you what you have to do, my friend. I look forward to your return.

[~/\The Dragon Writer/\~]

I'm locking this before anything else becomes of it. She said she was leaving, and that's all we really need to know. Most of you should know better than to post what you did.

If I may say a last word that has to do with giving Larxy a warm goodbye, then I would just like to say we'll miss you, and we hope you have a nice break.

I'm going to have to reply for obvious reasons.

Yes, I brought the fight back up. But not as horribly as you make it sound. I simply clarified that Asa hadn't been whining to me about Zero, but instead to Sleepy. Just because Asa decided to follow up with that (with a not-so-horrible comment himself) doesn't make it my fault it exploded again.

And the subject change was natural. I used controversial subjects to hopefully snag everyone's attention away from the fight and onto something different. As I've said countless times, the typical weather conversation would have blown over too easily. In the end, it only made things worse, obviously, because of your own emotional responses to the subjects. I tried to change the subject in a positive manner, and it was taken negatively by you. If you would have reacted so negatively if you weren't already upset, who knows.

And might I add that the ban is also not as negative as you make it sound. I threatened you both with a temporary (like ten minute) ban from the cbox, as stated in the cbox rules. Ultimately, the subject change that I attempted to make was an alternative to temporarily banning you both, but I see now that I should have just banned you two instead of just trying to change the subject, because my niceness caused more trouble than simply banning you two. Thus, why there is a zero-tolerance policy in place now.

As for the whole 'woman' argument, I suggested it be taken to PM. You yourself said in IM that next time the flamer said something, you'd attack him, which I took to mean you wanted to take care of it, which I had no problem with.

And I do return your messages. The last IM I got from you was about the above thing, and I haven't gotten a PM from you in a while. So, I don't know what messages you're referring to unless you sent some IMs to me today, but I haven't signed into MSN today, so.

I'm glad you're staying with us. I'm still going to call you a friend even if you don't call me one.

So, what have I learned? That I've become too soft, and it is time that my attempts at being nice just make things worse. Guess I'll just have to fix that.

I'll hopefully see you on IM sometime soon. I really don't want you being all mad at me. I feel really bad about this.
