Re: Mildly Irritating: Aetolia's Pet Peeves
People making sweeping generalizations about my qualities as a person and my roleplay integrity because of very, very mild (borderline inconsequential) IC choices and Roleplay is very frustrating. If the most minor of IC interactions are enough to impact you OOC so severely that you feel compelled to demonize other players, it's worth considering if a game like Aetolia is really one you should be playing.

Re: LOVE
@Erzsebet for catering to my laziness, and helping me design the pet I wanted. Despite multiple people telling me the credits would be better elsewhere.Sometimes, the RP tools that keep you invested are the reason you stay long enough to keep making more credits for the other stuff.
A few personal tweaks later ...
It's perfect for the theme I was going for.Yes the typo or two has since been fixed, when I noticed them after it got approved.

Re: Still alive.
Buddy. You have been an inspiration and great friend while fighting my own battles, seeing how strong and positive you are helped me through a lot of my fears.
Kick Cancer's ass and continue being amazing, I really ...sincerely appreciate you and always being willing to share your experiences. You have truly beat a scary phase in your life and look to recovery and that is inspiring and wonderful. I love having you around, and honestly...can't wait to see you at 100 percent again.
Note to the Teradrim, based on statistics becoming Imperator gives you cancer.
But now that language filters are removed... you can also say FUCK CANCER.

Re: The Guardians of Dendara
Didn't think I'd live long enough to see the avengers assemble TWICE. I legit think is my 2nd favorite Aetolian roleplay experience of all time. Way too fun.

Re: LOVE
I know the horse has been beaten to death but I still need to get my licks in.
I took a bit of a break during the time the major events we're having started popping off, but I was excited to hear about what was happening even though I wasn't really in the headspace to participate. By the time I got back, the war was won and the events we're seeing now began to unfold. I cannot express enough how much I've truly enjoyed Aetolia in the past year, how alive the game has felt not just since Ictinus took over but especially NOW. Never did I think player agency could have such a huge impact on the future of Aetolian storylines because honestly always felt like it had the capacity to encourage it, but ultimately nothing would come of it. The staff has been fantastic in facilitating and pushing the game onward.
@Sibatti and @Mati Having gotten to be in the Shamans under both of your Watchful eyes (ho ho) you two really made it an amazing experience in helping me get to do that sweet sweet witchy-shaman roleplay with other people who inspire ideas and immersion for our little guild in the forest. Being GM now with the both of you as Hand only makes me feel the excitement of a child when I think about the road the game is heading at the trajectory we're on. Thank you both, really.
@Valorie: My favorite sad junkie. I've really enjoyed everything that's happened during this personal arc we've had, and the quality of your roleplay is something that's always been refreshing to me, and I'm glad for the storylines we've written together the past couple of years. You'll always be my favorite person to RP with.
@Jakarn @cinnamae @Valeria @Pilar @Mahar (sorry if I forgot anyone): My Shaman peeps. Excluding Pilar, watching you guys grow into Shamans of your own, finding your own way, and embracing the roleplay avenues that have come up for us recently has really warmed my heart, and I'm really proud of you guys. Seeing you all latch onto it makes me want to be a better GM for all of you and help you however I can. Stay dope.
@Iesid @Rihrin: Really if it hadn't been for the both of you, none of this would have happened. For better or for worse, I think the result was nothing short of amazing. Our characters initially didn't see eye to eye, but we got to a place where we could operate with one another peacefully enough. I particularly like the responses both characters had for this personal arc i'm running, and opened doors for new beginnings between our characters. I look forward to it.
@Ayanala @Yvi @Devin @Finid @Daelares @dakari @ardaun: Some of you i've known for a long time, some of you i'm just getting to know. You guys' contributions to Duiran's environment, the Shamans, and my character's personal story where applicable hasn't gone unnoticed. I'm glad to share an org with some cool people and their characters.
To @Ictinus @Razmael, all the Celani that have been making the game feel alive for the Shamans/Duiran: Long have I felt that Duiran was just the doomed org of having to fight off so many adversaries while clinging onto what little bit of the world they had left with no real meaningful way to fight back. For the first time in my experience, Duiran feels like they have -real- power now that can and will affect the world in meaningful ways. I understand the potential for it has probably always been there and not really utilized for a variety of reasons, but I'm extremely happy that it's happening now. I love that the importance of the Guardians is now being pressed onto Duiran as a whole and serving as these pseudo Gods for us to worship/be able to rely on in times of need. Easily one of the things i've desired for a long time, and just that much happier it's happening.
NOW BRING ME KAARN.

Re: Mildly Irritating: Aetolia's Pet Peeves
If you can't see the difference in Tetchta's posts and that DM, I'm not sure there's really any point to continuing this conversation, especially given your attitude.
