Did you contact MSB about it recently? :-?

I have attempted to get in touch with people regarding the plot/direction of the story.

Did you talk to the right people? I mean, rules say that the warning is optional for a mod after three weeks, and it's been like... two years since you grabbed the Jumpstarters? But, I'm not sure what the details of the situation were, so I can't speak in much detail.

I do know that Trails and Nexus are really big Jumpstarters fans, and were really excited about playing them regardless of where they were positioned, so there's that.

I said here, in chatterbox that I wanted to get in touch on where the story (in general) was going.

I understand I haven't played them in years. And to be honest, I originally took them because Phaze asked me to.

However, I have been active on the forum so a courtesy "hey, you still up for playing Top and Twin?" Would have been proper. If I had gone completely inactive, well then, that's an SOL situation.

You know what... Right now I am running an alliance family in Transformers Earth Wars that has nearly 400 people in it, with 4 affiliated alliances, And a snarky, troublemaking Aussie (that, believe it or not, is not Burn), all of who can't seem to get along when Thursday night rolls around and start screaming at each other. This occupying a good portion of my time.

If I had been asked, i probably would have said "oh sure, go ahead"

Oh, well, I'll let you and the mods sort it out. Don't wanna get mixed up in a match.

You're very right. I shoulda thought to ask you first. That would be my fault. My apologies.

You understand that at first, I thought this was a simple, honest mistake.

It was. Please don't think that it's more than it is.

When a mod went in and removed the characters fro my roll call post, the word mistake can no longer be used.

I don't get it. What are you implying?

Dude, it ain't hard to see what she's implying.

Listen, ctrlFreq, if you really really have a problem with losing a couple characters you didn't even seem to want, talk to the mods privately, plz. Don't blow it all up here. If not, just let it go. There's no good reason for everyone to get all up in arms over this issue.

I'm not making drama here. You're the one who should be taking this to PMs (or well, you do live in the same house, yell across the room to him)... Just saying... Cause I read his question and thought... "Eh, I'd make it worse if I responded, better leave it." And had lunch instead.

I sent you a PM not too long ago, and you never responded. So there's that.

I forgot to respond to a pm. Not sure how that is drama? :???:

Not saying there is an issue, but just making you aware in case you missed something.

Anyway, do you think it would be fair for the mods to tell you to play them or lose them, and then you play only so that they can stay in your roster, and keep them from two newer players who want them more? Obviously the mods don't know your intentions, so it makes sense to avoid that sort of issue.

Also, them both playing the Jumpstarters was kinda my idea with twins playing twins, and thought that would work so well. So don't hammer just on them, please. Thank you.

I think Smokey has said all he is going to say on the subject.

Again, I probably would have been happy to give the characters over had I been asked. Instead it seems pretty clear that people decided instead of being upfront and polite, they purposefully went behind my back to take the characters without asking.

If I weren't an active player, I wouldn't have a problem... But I am, in fact have been putting an effort in to being communicative so I could be an asset to the story instead of blindly stumbling along.

Right now I could be a jerk and say I want the characters back, but honestly, I'm not going to... I don't really know that I will get around to playing them if I did (at this rate).

Thank you, Trailblazer, for apologizing for not asking me first. I'm sorry I didn't respond to it sooner, I am feeling very backstabbed over this whole thing and needed to process feelings.

Going forward: I am still playing Frenzy, please do not make any moves on him. I will try to catch up a little more on Soundwave's whereabouts on the Thanatos and probably have him pop out and get involved (I have an idea where Soundwave is and what he is doing), I just haven't had the time to keep up on all the threads.

Just edited my latest Red Alert post. FYI.

Working on fanmade Doomshot's profile, and requesting permission to make him a height of 34ft rather than 31 because he's a bigguy. What say, mods?

Tue Oct 17, 2017 1:20 pm

I was going to write up a custom character who was into flamethrowers but just noticed someone else had already made a pyromaniac Decepticon. So I'm back to the drawing board, now.

It is entirely up to you on what you decide in terms of creating your custom character. There can be several characters that have similar weapons/abilities.

Just as a note, over the next couple of weeks I'm going to be posting much less frequently because I'm gonna be super occupied with a thing I have, but I'll try when I get the time!

If there's a character of mine that really needs to respond, and I don't get around to it, mods can feel free to control them.

Edited my latest post in Autobot Frigate Guardian. Smokes pointed out a detail I missed at the end.

Interact with someone else's characters in the meanwhile. There's plenty who're active in Convergence.

I second this. I say spread your characters' wings a bit. Might help ya get into the swing of things, and even be more comfortable about even joining some other threads separate from Freq in the future if you want to as well.
