My I make a request that this thread, if wished to keep around, at least be locked?


Can I do it myself, or does a mod have to? Because if I can myself, I will.

I think as it's your topic you can...I'm not completely sure though.

I only ask as to prevent any other small arguments that might arise (especially since most of the attacking is UF on SA, not the other way around).

I'd be happy to lock this but kinda waiting to see the rewrite of the initial message. Maybe edit the first post to have both goofus and gallant versions? At least the rest of the convo makes it fairly apparent that this is not some monolithic opinion of uF in general about SA.


Also, thanks Nimbus for the spit-take:

Oh, thank you. I just sent ndemeter a PM, but if you can also that would be great.

Apologies for any inconveniences to all, both with this thread and having to have it cleaned up.

Re: ATTENTION SOMETHING AWFUL POSTERS
We know you're lurking here...

SickSlickMan wrote:
Alright, this is take two because apparently the first take could have been a lot more kindly worded:

Alright, SA, we understand you don't like us. We're fine with that. We're not entirely sure what we did to earn your disdain, but we can live with it. What we don't understand is why you can't and won't let it go. Why the butt of your jokes lie with us.

Yes, we like to have fun with this. Yes, we have a few different threads for one game. Can't be helped. But we do the same thing you do, and we watch the same series you do. At the end of the day, why there is a rivalry there when we're all fans of the same thing is beyond me.

We're all Rabbits here. We've got Rabbits on our end, you've got Rabbits on your end, Slender Nation has a few Rabbits there too. But we're all playing the same game. So hows about some cooperation here, huh?

DocJoweles- I don't really understand where your hatred of us came from. Maybe we just called you DocSparky one too many times or something, I dunno. We have no ill will towards you, just confusion over the sudden turnaround, and we'd like to clear it up.

Fullroundaction- I'm just going to say this right off the bat. You came off as an asshat when running for leadership, so you were one of the picks to be eliminated, and instead of taking it like a man, you complained, threatened to gamejack, and threw another rabbit in front of the bus. Fine. We've let it go. What's done is done. To continue to fuel the hatred at this point is childish and stupid. We'll continue to treat you as a child if you continue to act like one, but if you're willing to talk, we'd like to work out some kind of an armistice.

And to the rest of you- what are you doing? It's a web series. When all is said and done and all the feelings are let out of our bodies, is this really worth getting everyone all angry about it? You humiliated one of our rabbits, and for what purpose? Just to be a bunch of trolls? Is that really a kind of image to be proud of? I'm assuming at least some of you (and I know that the above two members are) are grown men. Would grown men really act like this? Come on, guys. Chill out.

Now, I don't claim to be innocent in this tirade. I'm as guilty as the next man and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. But I'm gonna try now, and I'd just ask that, since we're all playing the same game here, that you'd try as well. Wishful thinking? Probably. But we'd like to at least talk it out, and hopefully alleviate these tensions. There is no need for any of these bad feelings at all.

Hope viewers of the last posting will find this one slightly more agreeable. Signing off, once more.

Much, much better.

Bump for the better rewrite.

For some reason, this thread reminds me of a joint Fark/SA photoshop thing that happened years ago. So for no reason, here was my losing entry.




Locky!
