That's the absolute most it should come to. Nothing past that though, just to be safe.

If you could elaborate on that comment I would appreciate it.

Basically, he went off about how Game Girl is also a GM, and seemed to decry the idea that people become friendly with one another OOC because it was of his opinion it led to preferential treatment. I already see it as a role playing game, and in my experience with tabletops, they're usually way better with a group of friends who can relate and understand one another, or at least are willing to bridge any gaps in communication to come to a better understanding with each other, creating an enjoyable experience while still maintaining the fact we were congregating for a challenge.

I already knew GG was an admin, though. It is not an issue, nor can it even be considered one.

The message I got was from someone who came off sounding like everybody else didn't matter, nor did it sound like someone who was willing to extend themselves to actually be available to anyone else. I have never asked for assistance in my RP's, but I have asked for criticism and feedback from a few personalities around here besides the clear cut win/loss of a card, especially if I wound up posting against a no-show and wouldn't have that common barometer. In some cases, I didn't require that, I was able to see what I did when I lost and try to avoid repeating some of the key tones and messages I was delivering.

I also replied to the messages offering help. I wouldn't outright write for them, or even analyze their opponents or their rps, but give pointers where there voice became difficult to hear (especially since we're all responsible for bringing a unique and different portrayal of events).

Essentually, though, prior to my whole everything going bye bye, in the pet peeve thread it was behavior exemplary of what I could gripe about; he wanted everybody who busted their ass to deliver characters in a muted fashion to match him rather than try to bring a character turned up to 11 to help establish a world turned up to 11 while dealing with an opponent doing their best to turn it up to 11 themselves, all because he thought 7 or 8 was as loud as it should get.
