Ok to defend myself (and to seemingly put this thread back on topic) ill say my little bit. Now there were 10 pages when I noticed this thread, so im not going to quote this and quote that.
First of all, I must stress a point which Zer seems to keep overlooking in my posts.
I DO NOT HATE NOR DISLIKE WINDARIA.
I found the whole situation laughable after a while.
Whenever she came to QCDN (second time I think?) she went on her little crusade, and I replied in a very civil manner. Look it up if you dont know which one Im talking about.
I was stuck at the library for 4+ hours. I was extremely bored. There is only so much crap the internet can do for you on a public comp.
I started to touch up a new "You are..." picture for Rufus. The one I was using was beginning to get old and to suck. I was skimming FFXI images when I found a white haired mithra. (Wrong model as I have been numerously told, but w/e.)
Since I was already working on a "You are..." picture, and the fact that Peregrine's post just seemed like as much of a waste of space, I figured I would try out making a "You are..." picture of someone from the site.
The mithra picture was on hand. I dont know what Peregrine's character model is. Obviously I was wrong about Windy's too, but it was pretty much all I had to go with.
Now stay with me here:
I did not bear any malicious intent with the post towards Windy. I was bored as hell and I figured that it was funny and that other people would get a laugh out of it.
Some did, some didnt. People are entitled to their opinions about humor and whatnot.
If what you people want is a public apology, then fine:
I'm sorry.
It was just meant as a joke. Why the flameboard? Well if you read my last post before the lock, you can see why. It simply doesnt fit anywhere else. POSSIBLY the off-topic board. But otherwise nowhere.
Besides, it turned into a flame didnt it?
To the OP of this thread, I agree that there was no reason to lock it. It turned into a flame and thus worked with the board.
To everyone else: PLEASE lighten up. It was meant as a joke and you are being way to serious about it. I would have used anyone's pic if I had one. In fact, I was planning on using Skaw or Khidir, but just didnt have the available images.
As to Windy not being here to defend herself: It really had nothing to do with her. Everyone knows she was annoying and loud. Its undeniable. The whole situation was merely for a simple laugh.
The point is: I'm sorry. It was meant as a joke. Lighten up and let it go.
