Now, I've been with this site since its beginning and before that. Most of you know this, most of you know me. Now, the reason i bring this up is because of the people that know me and that i know, well... you've become like a family to me, and i know to some of you i've been there through some of your toughest times. Let's face it guys, some of our best friends exist on this site. That brings me to the main point of my topic. I don't post much anymore, and that's because i'm planning something big, but at the same time, it's also because lately i see so much tension between people. I know that things get stressful, some of you were there when i had my huge breakdown and left a thread completely. What we all need to realize is that everyone on this site is here for a reason, and let's be honest, for most of us it's because we don't fit in much anywhere else. Sure, we have friends at school, at home, work, etc... but the reason so many of us dedicate hours and hours to our threads is because this is where you feel at home. Now, i'm not speaking for everyone, but i know i'm speaking for a few people at the least. I want everyone to think about anything they've been mad at anyone for, especially toward the newbies. Guys... WE WERE ALL THERE ONCE. All of us. And you all know how difficult it is to fit in. What i ask of all of you is to at least try to be nicer to each other. Everyone here needs a friend, and the newbies need guidance. So the next time someone upsets you, or the next time a newbie is messing with your thread... remember, you were there once. You were alone, trying to make friends, trying to join in on some threads. And you probably messed up a story or two, i know i did. (remember the zombie topic?  ?) That's all i really have to say on that. Just some advice to you, my family. My wonderful, fabulous Killjoy family. -Incendiary Aftermath AKA 'Cendi AKA IA AKA Aftermath |

Very well said, IA. We welcome everyone to our forum, and if you have a problem with the way someone's writing, please send them a message and be polite - or better yet, tell Bunny or myself, and we'll speak to them personally.

Very well said IA. We started this site in the first place to escape the bullshit and lack of control/creativity some of us feel in our own lives. So the thought that anyone, old or new to this site, would consider themselves better than anyone else makes me angrier than anything else. We do have rules on this site (please read them if you havent or reread them if you must) and they exists so that everyone will be allowed a chance find their character and make it last and if you're like me and some others on this site, you will consider this place like home. Maybe, just maybe, you will find out who you really are. Its clear to everyone that is on the site a while that me and arson, despite what you think of admins/mods, Are heavily involved in the threads. We are there to help with any problem no matter how big or small so dont be afraid to contact us. Feedback on how you're getting on on the site is always valuable so dont be afraid to send me a pm anytime about anything.

You guys can ignore this. I just read it and it ONLY makes sense to me.
I'd just like to add to that: even if you THINK you're doing it right, you can still mess up. I know I do. In fact, my last big screw-up was just last week. And I'd like to apologize to and thank EVERYONE who was involved in getting me to fix it, because I thought I was doing just fine. But everyone (well...except maybe the REAL old-timers; I barely qualify.) messes up sometimes. Just keep that in mind before you go off and rant about the new newbies, or the seasoned newbies (e.g. Blackie and I) or whatever you want to rant about. I think this might only make sense to me.

Hahahaha It makes more sense than you can possibley know. And believe me the 'REAL old-timers' can still mess up sometimes. I know I still do. You mess up, you learn, you get more awesome. Thats how things work. If we didnt screw shit up, we would never learn and that wouldnt be fun.

I may as well post on this thread rather than making ANOTHER thread.
Here's the deal guys. IA has taken quite a toll in his many years of fighting and being shot and stabbed and kicked in the balls. He's retiring from missions for a while. Now, i don't know how well this new idea will work out, but he's starting a school. A school for New Killjoys. Who better to teach it than an insane person? So consider this everyone's heads up. All newbies are welcome, seasoned or not. Keep in mind i have no structure set for this at all, so bear with me.

OH. OH, WOW. That is seriously a great idea, IA. Maybe Vol will show up sometime. Screw up your life, pester your students, and leave. That kinda stuff. (Actually, I'd be a lot nicer than that. But I WILL consider showing up sometime, because that sounds awesome. If you would even let me.)

Yes, I'm still running - sort of. But it is lonely out here. Haven't seen anyone else for a while.
