The question wasn't about neglect, but about the teasing thing, yes I am sure. And yes, the boyfriend is her father.

You are not sure unless you can feel what she feels. So your sister had a child out of wedlock; I'm sure the little girl loves everyone knowing that mommy and daddy are just boyfriend and girlfriend.

And other people wouldn't know from everyday life, let alone an mmorpg?
I agree with you, parents should make time for family, but that doesn't mean never doing things they like to do.

Wow, you have to be really 'fragile' to be bothered by parents who play online games
One might say there were problems to begin with

The problem goes by the name of excaliber! Aparently people on here don't know how to read sarcasm, so this is a little disclaimer telling people that it is sarcasm and not to get freaked out and call me a retard about it or anything of that nature.

I can't get to my point because I'd simply be banned. Aknts knows where I was going and kind of touched on the subject.

My sister has a daughter who is 13ish or something like that

And how old is your sister?

Aknts? Come on now.. you know my name.

Anyways just try and censor what you're going to say and just say it.

I am really curious as to why players feel this way, and if there are any other older adults that play that receive the same treatment.

We aren't your children, nor do we want to be treated like it. You are a horrible moderator because instead of being even semi-respectable, you are cold, frigid and condescending. You never contribute, you only muffle and muzzle and gag people and that's how it has always been since the horrible decision was made to appoint you. It is stuff like this...

...that makes you loathed. It is stuff like this that contributed to me leaving, and it is stuff like this which keep you from ever being a good moderator. Instead of moderating for the community, you moderate for unixmad and only for unixmad. I don't care what excuses you give as refutation because I've heard them and they don't make up for it. I don't care about the community anymore because it is nothing but a shell now, but if you really must ask questions you might as well get a decent answer from someone who doesn't give a damn if he is banned for being too honest.

I had no problem with Chuck. I had no problem with other adults who play. I am an adult myself. It is because you have a position of power, and run this like a God damned preschool instead of a forum which young adults frequent. There is a wall between you and people who are younger than you, and this was not realized when you were appointed moderator, and clearly not when you were appointed forum administrator.

The whole NGRT farce, the whole "The Lounge" farce, everything is becase you had to whine and complain to unixmad. Do not think that I am stupid enough to believe that you didn't wholly contribute to those events which basically left any debating on the forum pointless. You used to participate in those debates, including some of the homosexual-directed ones, and when people started making points that you didn't like (and it was a matter of preference on your part, since they were accompanied by relevant studies), you started PMing them threateningly and calling them homophobic (I can only assume, since you did to me on at least one occasion).

And unfortunately, you don't give a **** about the community. Anyone who really cared about the community instead of being the king (or queen, as the case may be) **** of turd island would have quit over that ridiculous "no non-graal links" rule. Also, you would not have completely warped the community to the little dollhouse that it has become if you actually cared about the people in it. As much as you would like to think about this not having to do with your horrible actions, it is. Don't fool yourself more than you already do when you think that you're doing the right thing.

I'm sorry I didn't phrase it in the form "The reason people are unfair to you is...". And it does answer your question just fine.

Nailed it! Took the words right out of my mouth.

I think Moonie should quit and we bring back Lycia.

[p2p_Sir_Link]

No New Year's Day to celebrate,
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away,
No first of spring, no song to sing,
In fact, here's just another ordinary day.

CHORUS
I just called to say I love you;
I just called to say how much I care;
I just called to say I love you,
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.


No April rain, no flowers' bloom,
No wedding Saturday within the month of June.
But what it is is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you.

CHORUS

No summer's high, no warm July,
No harvest moon to light one tender August night,
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves,
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies.

CHORUS

No Libra sun, no Hallowe'en,
No giving thanks for all the Christmas joy you bring,
But what it is, tho' old, so new,
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do.

CHORUS


PS: I love you Moon Goddess

Wow, protagonist, nice way of saying what we were all thinking. But since it was off topic, not many people will read it before it's deleted, or the thread's closed =|

Looks like it is still there to me...
Please stop trying to start trouble, and please dont try to say all of the members of the forums feel this way.

That's what we're all thinking? speak for yourself, not for the rest of us.

80% because 20% of my nice hart is still there. :]
