Alright guys, I loved haveing chats with you all, we had good debates on this forum. But I'm dashing.
This is not an attack against you Droz, I love ya alot man, but I too have to speak my mind just as much as you.
My reasoning for departing is simple, Droz and I have had our differences, but I find over the internet he takes on a whole new persona, one which I'm tired of dealing with because I like him as a person. In person Droz and I have always had debates, shook hands at the end of it and carried on without a care in the world. Over the internet, I gatta say he does not live up to the reputation I've known him to hold. I've always held the belief you should act like you do in person on the internet. When you cross the line and act differently virtually, eventually it will leak into the real world. In hopes of perserving future debates and a long and healthy friendship with my good friend, I will be stepping down from the Forum. I've never had such issues with people in the past and I have never held an emotional charge over such forums or the internet in general. I will not be bogged down in virtual fights that may spill over into the real word and I shall not get emotionally rallied up over a simple wall of text. I find my good friend is the flip side of that coin so I will have to step out in order to keep our friendship mutual and at peace while in person.
Since he is the owner of this Forum and I just an admin, I must give the road to him. He feels I have abused my power by forceing rules of conduct on two threads and have thus become a tyrant. (Threads in mention are the Raw-Raw fight the power, and how to run a Goverment, there may be more if he feels there are.) He feels I am takeing control over a his forum that we put together. I've never held intention of takeing over this forum, or forceing real rules on people. I have always set down basic forum rules that are common on all forums. Rules that make sure all arguements are debates and are held in a civil attitude. Flameing, trolling and personal attacks have always been a tabboo, one which I felt Droz has broken. Venting is a normal part of life, but when thats all you do and you vent on your friends over and over, it does cause issues. I've always tried to remind him to remain civil, and thus I'm being slapped for doing such.
It was fun yall and I will still game and party with you all in person, but I'm not ganna ruin friendships over a silly thing like a forum.
Everyone, Droz included can contact me at any time via E-mail Cillaklown@gmail.com or you can call me 717 414 3140 as well as find me on the forum Warhammer-empire.com I will be known as Fog of WAAGH
Droz, if you actually read this post man, call me or text me when you want, I'm still a good friend and I don't want a crappy forum of 14 members ruining the good friendship we've held.
