I made a mistake "TheBrotherhood Collapses"

I might be mistaken - but I do believe men have a mouth too.

I don't think he'd like to flip positions and find a cock in his face.

I could be wrong though. :/
 
the LINKSHELLians aren't bad....i stayed in because everyone else in the LS were and are good people.. remember this is ONLY toward Xean and Zerayla and their ability to drive some members away..or rather ban them from the LS forums while they're at work and can't even put in her 2 little mithran words... /angry
 
Nope, right on the money

....not that there's anything wrong with that, of course >.>;
 
It's a real shame I can't rate you up right now.

Josudes et al.: Shit luck that this kind of crap happened to the lot of you. This thread drives home the entire point of this OTHER thread. Personally, I wouldn't have waited as long to leave; things appeared to be going downhill in that shell since the inglorious event of '07 (has anyone *seen* Soulstar since?).

As others have said, more stable social shells exist, and best of luck in finding one.

Keep on rockin' you redheaded stepchil~I mean stranger.

I love being quoted in this manner. Rate up for j00.:bb:

Like Uzor, reading those tells made my head hurt, but for a different reason.

To Marajade, I wanna join in on that. XD:biggrin:
 
As fun as it would be to see Zer and Xean post we know they won't. They have such big egos that they think they're always right. I'm just hoping Xean will find a new thing to obsess on.

Here I'll fill in for them though.

Zer: But God told me to
Xean: Jos, Kel and Reiyn were going to be nin lotting some ls pearls. They had a plan and I caught on to it before any harm could be done.
 
In all this mess, did I read that two people met playing ffxi and are now engaged irl?

Or was that just the whiskey talkin?
 
Its not the whiskey, although if you saw the pics from the Mexico trip, you'd have to buy another bottle.
 
My, typically verbose, take on this (bearing in mind that I know none of the individuals involved and speak generally on overall leadership principles and human interaction) is that, as the case is currently presented:

- Kirameki *did*, however humanly, do/say something that offended a LS member (leader or not *should* be irrelevant /stare). This should have had *some* sort of consequence, and the most civilized consequence on all sides would be an adult discussion between Kirameki and Zerayla, where they come to an understanding of each other's perspectives and come to some sort of compromise between free speech and not being offensive. Which would probably involve a bit of restraint on Kirameki's part and a bit of growing a thicker skin on Zerayla's part.

- Going "ok, you were mean and hurtful, oh and I'm also gonna bring up some other stuff I didn't like about you - even though I haven't mentioned this before so you had no real reason to know it was bugging me that much, and certainly had no opportunity to do anything about it, I was still secretly holding it against you and will punish you for it now, BEGONE" is *not* anywhere remotely near the most civilized consequence. Especially, of course, when I put it that way. :P

It is, in general, Very Poor Form to get back at someone for one incident and just so happen to bring in all sorts of other stuff that you hadn't discussed with them until then. If it bugged you enough to bring into that discussion, then it should have bugged you enough to have dealt with it already. If it didn't, then it doesn't deserve to be brought into the new concern either.

Protip: learn to communicate with people about things as they come up, not just keep a hidden little list in your head and get rid of people when the list gets long enough. :P

- Disagreeing with said, very arguably poor, leadership decision is totally understandable. As noted above, the leadership should be open to criticism and even willing to change their minds giving a counterargument. (Or even given such evil horrible usurping as re-pearling someone. Heaven only knows, that sort of thing just makes shells fall apart left and right.) Doing such things as banning people from forums, talking in rhetorical circles and obviously not listening, and having a history of "I'm always right and anyone who disagrees with me is therefore wrong" is a strong indicator that said leadership is *not* open to criticism, whatever claims it may make to the contrary.

If the *real* flow of discussion goes more like "oh sure, I'm listening to you, uh huh, uh huh, what was that dear, oh yes, mm hmm, that's nice... now that we've talked about it I'll just do what I was going to do anyway" ... well, that's quite obviously not listening, being open-minded, and being willing to change your mind, now is it? :P

- Going on a further booting spree because of being disagreed with and Having Your Authority Challenged (the horror! think of the poor egos) is just plain childish. It is far from a sensible solution to disagreement, to simply get rid of everyone who disagrees with you. Nobody with any sense of individuality will always agree with you on everything, so if you haven't already, grow up and learn to accept people disagreeing with you and people disliking you, and be able to come to some sort of compromise work with them in your group *anyway* if the group is better off for it. Even if you, Almighty Super Important Leader, are not better off for it. (Oh, and don't assume that you have absolutely perfect knowledge of what's best for the group.)

- Talking in rhetorical circles to the tune of "I shouldn't have to tell you what the problem is" is a form of passive aggression, although it's most commonly seen in arguments amongst romantic couples. :P It is *not*, more to the point, restrained objective leadership. And a leader, if asked their reasoning for a decision, should give it. All of it. Unless, of course, they *just* gave it, in which case they're quite entitled to spout a line about not wanting to repeat what they just said. (That was not the case here.)

And if their reasoning doesn't make sense when presented logically and objectively, they should be prepared to deal with the backlash, including backpedaling and changing their mind. (People often seem to take the axiom of "stick to your guns" waaaaaaay further than they should, often out of sheer stubbornness and not wanting to admit they were wrong.)
 
I agree Vilurum. The was a massive lack of communication. The first attempt at such a dialogue by myself was met with silence on the part of Zerayla. The second was after my pearl had been shattered.

Since I so rarely post here. I will give you 2 of the 5 postings I made upon the other forum. 3/6 we rather innane, I didnt save and were for all intents and purposes "Dont shoot maw"

It should be noted that the deletion of the first paragraph is what sparked the recent debacle. Its contents were deemed in appropriate and I was given a warning. My attempt at a dialogue, was as mentioned, left to fallow. The second post was a rebuttle to the silence. Ok, in that one, I was kinda being a dick, but it is kinda a funny video.




standpoint said:
Bye for now. And again, I apologize

This is Kirameki all.

Stand, I tip my hat in your direction for acting like an adult in this situation. You realized that you were a colossal dick. But rather then dig your self a hole by justifying what you did, you realized your mistake, apologize and stepped back from the situation to wait until cooler heads prevailed to rejoin. For that I applaud you.

As for Elden, he really does get too much shit for being PUP. Sure, 1 tweak positively in any direction would seriously tip the power of the job, but there is no reason he should be greated with lolPUP everytime he comes on. Unlike me, Kelga or Kier for example, Elden doesn't deserve half the crap he gets, mostly cause he doesn't give it back. We are a simple social LS to my knowledge, and as such Elden does not deserve to be our whipping boy. Since many feel it necessary to condone Stands action, I only feel it fair to issue the following statement about each job.

WHM
Yes we need you. Yes you keep us alive. Yes R3 is nice to have. But how hard can it be for you morons to keep the rest of your party alive. You have 1 spell you need to cast. 1 FRAKING spell. Its called Cure, learn to macro it. At level 40, you have 2 spells to cast, Cure and Haste. Congratufrakinglations. You know all that there is to playing WHM. No STFU about being poor all the time and go level another job you gimp.

BLM
You over glorfied nuke machines. Takes you what, 50 levels to figure out how to play your job without getting everyone killed? You retards. No wonder SE had to go and nerf your job, you are the magic equivalent of a MNK. Of course since the majority of you are taru’s we can already assume you’re just a weeaboo with a pedo complex.

RDM
Refresh. That’s all we want you for, that’s all we need you for. You can’t cure worth a frak, your nukes are platry at best, and don’t even THINK about drawing that sword until you have a Joyeuse (read: HAPPY in English) you have Savage Blade. What? Don’t have SB? Then go join a skillup party and earn it. “But I’m the enfeebler” Big deal, a WHM or BLM whose worth his salt with capped skills can do that job. Now get back to being my refresh bitch.

WAR
What the hell guys? Pick a weapon already and shut up about it. Nobody really cares what is better, GA or Axe, so stop bothering us with your arguments. Your second class merits suck, you can’t do as much damage as a SAM, and now that SE has nerfed 2H fighting, you suck even more. The fact your armour makes you look like fighter from 8bit Theater kinda makes you look retarded.

THF
We love your for Treasure Hunter. We like that you have decent pulling capability. But other then that, you suck. Your damage sucks. Your hp sucks. Your whining about SATA sucks. Seriously, shut up about that last one. Most tanks and REAL damage dealers don’t give a flying horseshit about SATA because you’re a one hit wonder. You guys have the endurance of an 18 year old virgin on prom night.

MNK
Can you target the enemy? Can your hit the attack button. Do you know how to use a weapon skill? Congratulations, you’re higher. You have quite possibly the easiest job in the game. This job is reserved for those too retarded to figure out how to play any other job so you settle for the bottom of the barrel in challenge. “Yes, but in order to be effective I need…” Shut up RIGHT there, because no one gives a rats ass. Oh, and your Artifact Armor is about as useful as a WHM’s.

PLD
Yes, you’re a tank. Yes you are the only viable tank through every level. Get over yourself. You are nothing more then a meatbag whose only job is to stand there and get beat over the head with a 2x4. Boo fraking hoo, so some SAM steals the hate, quit bitching and work out a strat. Either that or let the fuck die for his stupidty. While your at it, pull your head out of your ass before I find a NIN to replace you.

EMO
I’m of course speaking to all you Dark Knights out there. No matter what you say, your job is EMO!!! I site Zeid as my primary evidence. Second, all of your spells are designed to hurt others to make you feel better. Go back and listen to your Linkin Park albums while the rest of us get on with our lives. Every time you bitch about being called EMO just makes it that much more obvious that you are. Now break the Linkin Park CD, slit your wrists with it, and die. TYVM

NIN
OMG! I’m broke again because I have to buy ninja tools. No shit Sherlock. You knew what you were getting into when you started the job, and now you bitch about being poor? How about doing us a favour quit whining for 5 minutes. Yes the WHM will give you haste when he gets around to it. Shut up already.

RNG
OMG I’m broke again because I have to arrows. WTF? You lazy sacks of horseshit. You require only two crafts to keep you going in arrows and bullets. Ok, maybe 3 for alchemy. Get off your lazy asses and craft your own GD projectiles. You whine about ranged attacks, and SE changes it, so you whine about that. They change it again because of your whining and yet you STILL whine. You know what you do to children who whine? You back hand them across the face till they learn to shut the hell up.

SMN
You’re an over glorified, underpowered WHM sans the ability to haste. Your buffs are nice though, but if you don’t have Diabolos, you suck. Lv32 Phalanx is good. Now get off your ass and get him. You can solo bombs, GREAT! So why does your gear suck? You’re 2hour is AMAZING. So why does your gear suck? Fenrir is your phallus, face it, when the FRAK do any of you seriously pull him out during an EXP party except when you have no RDM and you need dispel? Oh wait, you DON”T. Because you’re an over glorified, underpowered WHM sans the ability to haste.

SAM
The job that used to be good. So good in fact that SE had to effectively nerf the entire 2H weapon category because you guys were too powerful. Now all you do is bitch. I have a GREAT idea, after the EMO is done killing himself, why don’t you borrow the CD and follow suit.

DRG
For 3 years you complained about your Wyverns being shit. And they were. Because you’d bring it out for 5 min and then it’d die. You guys really had the shaft. But now that it is gone, you have no excuse for your other problem. That problem is the lack of imagination. There is a WHOLE other set of list of names for that Wyvern you retards, and all it cost is a measly 10k to change it. “Oh, but I’m to broke…” Shut up and farm. “Norg is too far” Start walking. Having a wyvern named Nanaja, Evelyn or Drake just makes you look like unimaginative. We felt so bad for you guys for so long we didn’t realize you were in fact, retarded.

COR
Part RNG, for pulling, part BRD for your buffs, part THF for your melee capabilities. What does this mean? You suck at everything you do. The only reason you exist is to cash in on the Pirates of the Caribbean fad. No go back to jerking off over Legolas.

BLU
You look like a moron. If it weren’t for the fact you guys are probably the single most disgusting class in the game, I’d have a beef with you. Oh wait, whats that? In order to be effective post 65 you need access to Sea? AHAHAHAHA, ok you do suck. As no other job requires so much effort just to be made effective like that. But I’ve already got sea. Great! You want a cookie? Wait your turn, SE will nerf you in time.

BST
Wow, beastiality anyone? Great job, cept everyone in their mother who plays this is functionally retarded with no general consensus on what is needed to play this properly. Whats even worse is that aside from specific BCNM's you never yank out anything other then Courier Carrie. Well, I guess people can do that sorta thing with fish.

BRD
You guys are whores like RDM, only you put out more. Refresh at 25, Haste at 30, you become a better puller then a RNG at Endgame. Face it, get off your high thrones, and act like the high class call girls you really are. Now DANCE MONKEY!




POST NUMBER2
Since my point was quite obviously missed (as in I wasn't flaming Stand but rather applauding him for acting like an adult) And since the need for such censor was deemed appropriate, I have this as a rebuttal; A message from Spike Jones, one of American's greatest comedians of the early 20th century.

While i personally don't like people to go lolpup since i love that job too, it is a fact that SE still need to tweak the jobs, mainly please stop giving mages gears for a dd, unless pup intended to be mages then give them innate mp.

Apart from that, you are either being very sarcastic on the bolded parts, or you just make my head really hurts after reading them. To pick a few out, BLU. BLU has to get sea to be effective post 65? You are a joke and you definitely have no idea what the crap you are spewing, go check information before you talk crap. Geez..
 
Wasn't going to say much else in this topic, but since you posted this from the other forum...

This is coming from a PUP who won't rush gimped to 75 like your pal.

WHM
R3/Cure V Makes this job worth having.

BLM
Making things go boom is always good.

RDM
You forgot about Haste.

WAR
1st voke for cannons can't hurt.

THF
Aside the primadonnas about SATA numbers, still rather useful, moreso than PUP.

MNK
Jobs to make my meripo go faster. <3

PLD
I'd like to see you replace a PLD with a NIN, esp in Dynamis to tank MNKs.

EMO
Emo kids crying make me smile, btw it's "cite."

NIN
Still more useful than PUP.

RNG
Who wants to craft? Srsly.

SMN
I could swear Garuda had Hastega...

SAM
Much TP short time + Shikikoyo > PUP.

DRG
DRG TP burns on Colibri are fun.

Evokers Roll.

Nvm I know a couple.

You wish you could shed hate like they do.

BRD
Who doesn't love a whore?

-- As much as I love PUP, almost each and every job here serves a higher purpose in a party than PUP.

Nice kid, but gimp PUPs who rush to 75 make those of us who take it seriously look bad.

Still no reason to really ride his ass like you say they did in the LS though. ;/

They are of some use, but the DRGs had to deal w/lolDRG, PUPs can get used to lolPUP and deal.

/comfort

Hate to go off-tangent and pick at this, but seriously... lol
 
Seventh Ministry is MY SHELL! I created it, and I am breaking it before you trash my name too.

I created it for Campaign, and I opened it up to some TBH friends looking to get away from some of the drama going on. It is not supposed to represent anything against Zer, Xean or any of the TBH members I am still friends with.

Find another home, because you're not using mine anymore. Get your facts straight before you start bringing up people who don't want to have anything to do with your little war.

Wow sorry about that I had no idea you were the leader since I never saw you in it. As for your friendship with Xean and Zer good luck with it. The facts were straight and I didn't bring up people who weren't involved. My mistake for thinking it was someone elses shell.
 
It was meant to be a joke. I laugh that you took it serious.

WHAT IS THIS THING YOU SPEAK OF CALLED "JOKE"?!

YOU WILL INFORM ME OF THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY AT ONCE!
 
While I can see the logic behind booting someone for constantly giving a pearl pack to a kicked member, removing other members for talking behind one's back or for disliking/being disliked by them and nothing more...is sortof...tyrannical.

This is totally misinterpreted.. I didn't repeatedly give him pearls. I have him 10 pearls at once for the hell of it because he wanted 10.. Five min later I broke them and then gave him one more. Oh and speaking of talking behind someones back.. They do that shit more than anyone. I have been in on their conversations and I have seen just as much shit talking from them as others. Face it everyone talks shit about someone they don't like.. Most people would keep it to their close friends if anything. I wouldn't go booting someone for calling me fat skinny a crackhead a dickhead or anything like that but I would confront them if I had heard of it. If they continued to be an asshole then sure I guess they would deserve to be booted. People talk shit it's life.

What I don't get is the Josude mistakes that made him liable to get kicked, imo no matter how you spin the whale or 'heffer'(but wasn't said?) analogies, most people wouldn't take it lightly, can't say I disagree with kicking; xean according to the OP didn't seem like he was too interested in hearing sides but laying down his law.

A leader should at least give some self-restraint before making decisions if the members are long standing if they bring a member back than breaking pearls and talk to them.

I'd like to hear Zeo's and Sol's input on it, if they know anything about it

This is how it has always been. Xean and Zer get there mind set on something and they take sides. They don't listen to the one who used to be the 3rd founder.. (me) I don't even know why I tried to defend people because I was always shut out as if my opinion didn't matter anyway. That is part of the reason I gave kirameki his pearl back. If I had said anything it wouldn't have mattered anyway.
 
Joke or not, that job rant was fucking retarded. Pup might not be the worst class in the game but honestly most of your points were pure utter bullshit. unrelated: why does Elden sub drk all the time? Don't want to risk pulling out a double attack or berserking?
 
In retrospect Josu, you should have given me 10 more pearls, and I could have repearled you. lol
