WARNING SMALL RANT-ISH THING AHEAD
I am slightly confused by what is going on. Many people are now making a big deal about this whole violence deal and how the forest has 'changed' yet again. Before everyone was upset about the lack of community. I just don't understand. I feel as if these plots have brought many of us together, I have met several deer I may have never met! I agree, the deer who have been attacking the fawns, does, etc, WITHOUT PERMISSION is wrong. But these plots, eh I see nothing wrong. Honestly it seems like no one will ever be happy with how this place is. If you feel un-involved then get involved! I mean it will never be perfect, but can't we all just be happy? I probably don't know as much as you all since I am newish, but this is just how I feel.
Meh. Bottom line Aegle?
Bottom line Aegle? Nobody will ever be happy XD Ever. I'm not even sure there's a point in questioning it lol
The forest has become a series of plots. Great! I have nothing against this. But it seems if this plot doesn't include everybody, and only a select number of deer, which if course most do, then those left out will find something against it. Then those people who complained get themselves into a plot and leave others out, and they complain...and round and round and round it goes ^^
The truth is most people arent looking at 'whats best for the community', but whats best for themselves -shrug- Human nature. They hate plots when they aren't in them and think they're just great when they are. Just got to ride it out I guess.

You know why that is Aegle?
It's impossible to please everyone, so you'll always have people who like a certain idea and people who are against it. This community has grown and a lot of people have joined, all with different interests. You can't satisfy the whole community, sadly.
I think the violence thing is taken a little too far. The plot was interesting, but it seems to be more and more fighting these days. At least, that's the impression I'm getting. I like the plots and all, but not if the plot gets lost in the process.
Maybe we should be little more tolerate and accept certain ideas, even if we don't like them. Of course, if they cross the line (or certain lines, those are also different) something can be said about them. But there will be many new ideas. Some you like, some you don't. But I'm sure there will never be an idea everyone likes.

I'll take the appropriate action.
Yeah, I get what you all are
I agree with you, Aegle. I
moments in the forest, but I also like the fighting. I guess I'm one of those unique people
that can love both.
Even those involved with
I got involved. Then I needed a break from how long it was going on.

"If you don't like something, tolerate it."
I feel I have to say
Here we are constantly offending complete strangers, all the time.
Think of us who have written fancy biographies and created characters with special personalities,
some are rude, impolite, loudmouthed, bad, whatever you wanna call them...
And not everyone knows that it's the nature of that particular deer who is harassing you,
and that some people are so in it that they try to live out their characters as much as possible.
And not everyone creates specific characters, some just play the game as it is,
and then it just happens that some gets misunderstood.
We still need to remember that this is just a game.
If someone feels that they are getting treated bad,
then they just have to know themselves that they shouldn't take it so serious.
Ofcourse somewhere there's gotta be a limit, but you should know how to behave by yourself.
I agree that these sort of things are prettty unecessary to discuss about,
and yeah we just simply gotta deal with it.
New players arrive constantly,
and we just can't keep explaining these things over and over...
The only thing I have a
For goodness sakes, the whole Dead Fawn storyline was planned out by Baal and CelticMystress BEFORE the attack took place. It wasn't like the fawn was an existing character anyway, it was created for the sole purpose of the storyline...if everyone took a moment to think about how their character will effect others, we wouldn't have to speak out against harassment. To me the Dead Fawn storyline isn't the problem, it's the other players who have taken it upon themselves to go about expanding upon it by involving unwilling players.
There are obviously plenty of players who want to be involved, would it really be so hard to seek these people out?! There are loads of blogs about it already. All those who want to be involved need to start taking the initiative and taking it upon themselves.
As a new players you probably have a fresher, less bias view of this whole thing! I've been around over a year, so I've seen phases of lashing out before...I guess I've just got thick skin about this sort of thing.
Baal's plot brought me out
Sure, nobody can ever be happy. I think that this violence will blow over or dim after summer is over. While it's here, we should enjoy the change of pace (though the random attacks aren't as nice, but...).
.../end mini speech >.<
Before the Baal plot, I was
Since getting involved, I feel accepted by most of the community, and I'm finally making friends here.
I just wish more people would try to get involved, rather than sit on the edge and complain. We're all friends at the end of the day.
There wouldn't be as much drama if people wern't complaining about it all the time.
This plot is for anyone to join in, not just a select few. But those other people need to make the effort to get involved too.
I should ignore these debate threads, my opinions are very naive. >>;

Well said, Aegle. I mean
I just wish people would
I agree with what Fled said.
