Fuck you.  You're picking a fight for no reason.  What I'm saying isn't even aimed at you.  In fact you're the perfect example of people having shit to deal with and still being able to RP.  I'm talking those who aren't RPing.

It doesn't take much time at all to write an RP, we're not forcing you to write a book or anything, and if you write a little on each day you have then it takes barely any time at all.  Being busy is the ultimate excuse for not doing it, I've seen it a whole lot before, in fact with JE.

I get that sometimes stuff like with Ethan this week happens.  I get you looking after your mother.  That's understandable, but if people are going to just use being busy as an excuse all the time for not RPing then this thing is going to fail.

And before somebody else gets their panties in a bunch, I'm not saying right now none of you are actually busy.  There's just a few people here who have done this a lot recently, and if nobody is RPing then we can't continue.

I'm not picking a fight for no reason. When I tried to explain that I agreed with Gopher about life outside of this being more important. You said:

We all have lives outside of this, don't bring up that bullshit.

That struck me wrong. Perhaps it's because of the stuff I am dealing with. I know you didn't mean it that you were calling our lives (my life) bullshit, but that's how it hit me. I'm just having a bad time now...forget it...I apologize.

First and foremost, this isn't the NHB forum and that shit has got to stop. Now.

Secondly, please don't just assume that people aren't roleplaying because of laziness. That's not fair. You don't know what we go through in our daily lives and it isn't your problem to be burdened with that information, but everyone has shit that comes up.

A sick mother, something with a family member, or even hanging with friends on a Friday night instead of writing a roleplay. Which is why I said real life matters just a little more than roleplaying.

That being said, as I told you last week and I've even made a thread about here, we all appreciate the effort that you and Hazzy put into this fed and yes, I am committed to contributing as much as I humanly can. I have missed three RPs, one the second week and the last two. You make me seem like I've not shown a lick of interest in this thing for months and that's not true or fair.

Everyone just needs to calm down and realize that this is supposed to be fun. And right now with everyone yelling at one another, it isn't. Let's fix that, OK?

I've said what I got to say and now it's over.  I knew everybody was going to react like this because you're on the other "side".  I'm addressing it before it becomes a major problem like it has done with past feds.

I think its pretty much what Heady said. We find the time to write the shows, do newsline stuff, talk about storylines and matches, read all the roleplays etc. because we know you rely on us to do that. Like, without us doing all that there'd be no efed. So when people don't roleplay, especially this week when only one match could be fairly decided on (and that was the triple threat where JE didnt roleplay, so it went between gungrave and illy), it's frustrating.

Especially when you have longer to do one roleplay. But then if you want that to be good you'll probably be thinking about it for a while, then writing it, then maybe reading it over and editing it or something. So its not like its the half hour thing that Illy's saying for most of you. Usually takes me at least an hour, plus thinking of ideas takes me ages.

Its up to you really to try and find out how its best for you to get it done. If you can write it in like 10 minute sessions every night throughout the week then that'd work, or you could write it on Monday when the show is still fresh on your mind so you aint gotta worry about refreshing your memory when you write your roleplay. Or do it when you got nothing better to do at work or something. Whatever. Feel like i'm being patronising, but i'm just throwing suggestions out there. When we came up with the schedule I thought maybe people could use the roleplaying break to think of a couple of ideas, to save time for the next couple weeks when you actually write the roleplays.

And like Heady said, if you can't roleplay for some reason and you know you won't be able to, advanced warning would be awesome cause it saves us waiting for you and having to change things at the last minute. But everyones been pretty good with that kinda thing so far.

Me and Illy are only doing this because hopefully everyone enjoys it, and we do, so when people don't roleplay it feels like it's not worth doing. But as long as everyone is still enjoying it then we'll keep doing it. You all signed up for it, so I'm guessing you want to be involved.

Anyway, this week's show is pretty exciting, and it'll change things pretty big in the next few weeks so hopefully everyone will find time.

I wanted to come back on here and tell you Illusion that I am sorry. I overreacted on all of this. As I said before I've been having a bad week and the stress has just gotten to me. I know you guys are working hard to keep this fed going and people not participating make it hard for you. You guys do a good job.
