Poop face

So, I was checking out regular world today and decided to check up on the progress of the password. Needless to say, I'm quite disappointed. Three letters to go. That means 18 people are out there hoarding their damned letter/number/symbol. I'm not sure if this is out of laziness, forgetfulness, or they just like to see those of us who are ever-so-curious writhe in anticipation.

The Interactive Mystery has fallen off the face of the earth. I keep up hope, though, as lame as it may sound. Why? Because I want to know what is behind that secret door. If someone says "Do not press the big red button," your immediate reaction is to press the big red button. Just to see what it does, and hope it is some yummy cake with a steaming cup of tea instead of blowing you up. Mysteries are a lot like that.

"Find this out. It's a surprise."
"Okay! Is it fish and chips?"

A very British thing for some boys from up north. Also, if The Regulars read this, keep your eyes peeled on your PO.

RP Goons

For those of you who don't know, I participate regularly and help run several online, forum-based RPGs because under normal circumstances, I don't have time to play any other kind of RPG. Now, the problem with this is that my first RP was one of the most respected forum-based RPGs on the net durring its time--which would be about two or three years ago now. It still is very respected, despite the fact the best mod in the universe has left.

Meg! What does this mean?

This means I'm used to efficiency, consistency and compitency to a certain degree. I can't seem to find that at any current running games like this. Durring exam weeks, this doesn't bother me too much. However, I check boards at least three times daily to see if there's any action. Yeah, there's never any action. I'm thinking about taking one of my characters and making them blow up the world. No one would ever know.

Another major problem with a forum rpg, just like any other game I suppose, is that it's full of idiots who don't appreciate a helpful hand. Take for instance, idiot Fell. Now, idiot Fell had (by some maricle) his character approved. I don't know how, the admin started twitching and ranting once he read the profile and the kid's first post. He had missed the first (and major) memo that one should have for their forum name their character's name for the sake of time management and headaches. Also, I noticed that the kid's first post was not in the character approval section. We do this so that we weed out the Mary-Sues and John-Does who tend to plague my existance. Also, the horrible roleplayers. This kid, by the way, is just horrible. So, I confront him that he should get his character sorted out and his name should be the same as his character. I automatically assumed that his character's name was what was listed.

The boy, instead of taking it, sassed me. Said that a mod had told him they'd get the Admin to sort it out. Which is totally rediculous, I feel sorry for the Admin. The same one who wanted to murder the SOB. He then had the nerve if I even read his post. What? No. The moment I saw bold text and "~" in the post, I completely ignored it. So, I told him I skimmed it and there was no need to sass me. He comes back and tells me I'm being hostile. What? Considering my first intentions were to help him? Riiight. I'm now considering dropping out of the RP circuit because this is what happens when I try to be helpful. Hell, I even tell people like this to do something before the Admin actually notices and bans their ass.

Not that any of this is important, but it only increases my fustration and hatred of most humans. It infuriates me that this kid is either 12-years-old and thinks he's the shit, or 32 and still living with his mother. Either way, it's pathetic.
