You guys I know a lot of shit went down on the Ironworks GD forum lately and I would just like to say I thought we were better than this! You may have been angry at Ken for comments he posted on this site but that is no excuse for a lot of things that were said. We were blaming him for flaming when in actual fact we were not much better! I am not taking sides here (the politicianhttp://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif) but I think that we owe an apology to Ken for the way we treated him. This is not about Zirocs apology to him but another matter about how we have treated him when he was here and even some people continue to do so now. Now do not take this as bringing the old subject up again but as just a way of finishing it off better than we started. Yes Ken has been reading on this site and with all that is being said about him I dont blame him for being angry. So if we could just say a simple sorry for the way we treated a new member here it could just relax some tension here. I know a lot of you were P'd off at him but we didnt have to do what we did. I know yeah yeah Im the young un 17 yr old here and I dont know anything but would it really be so hard? And mods pls dont take this the wrong way and delete it.

I agree, (yep, I really do). we were all pissed off I think, and said lot's of stuff we didn't mean (attacks and stuff), so I'll be the first to Apologize--and mean it. Come on guys, let's do this!!

I will apologize once Ken has apologized to me for trying to turn everthing I said around on me. I was not badmouthing Ken at all and I get shit upon from him.

Lord of Alcohol 05-26-2001 12:35 AM

I have talked with Ken at length today, it would be better to let things drop. All the way to page 10 and leave it at that. Just my suggestion to calm things down, that all

Hey Grand-Ranger read the 4 topics on page 2 of this forum named "Ken, Welcome to Lady Nightshade, All cleared up and I love making new enimies." and then you will find out what happened.

If you want me to close this thread, let me know. We should allow people to say that they are sorry if they want, but whatever you guys think is up to you.

I don't think that we should close or delete this thread. It's a good thread. No matter who it is, flaming someone when they cannot defend themselves is WRONG and cowardly IMHO. A lot of people who are now flaming weren't even here when this happened. This is just a HUGE misunderstanding because people from ALL sides lost their tempers and I can't blame anyone for it - I lost my temper too.

We need to treat people with the respect and courtesy that we would expect to be extended to ourselves - and that means NO flaming, no personal attacks, especially if you didn't know what happened and the person being attacked does not have an opportunity to defend themselves.

FWIW, I had a long chat with Ken and Lady Nightshade (and I have known Ken and LN for a little while) and found them to be fair and reasonable people. Lady Nightshade in particular is one of the sweetest people I've ever met. Yesterday was just a big misunderstanding and a classic example of what happens when we all lose our tempers. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I'm trying to resolve this and would ask that if you cannot add value towards a positive solution, stay out of it. And that's an order. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Jaqueaz, welcome to the board. You don't know what's going on apparently. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

The reason none of us are laughing is that there's nothing to laugh about. A lot of feelings on all sides were hurt by this bullshit, so it's not funny. Just so you know. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Agreed Memny http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif. Lets try to deal with this without making so much noise... Flaming and nonsense doesnt help at all.

And yeah LN is so sweet http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif. She´s really a good person.

Moiraine 05-26-2001 10:18 AM

Hi ! I'm back. I needed a little while by myself to sort through my feelings. Thanks to you, Lord Shield, Sir Taliesin and Mouse for your supporting mails. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

You know, what I am mostly feeling for Ken is compassion. For all his obsessive need of control and praise, which makes him deny himself such joy and wonder in life by meeting great people and making real friends. I believe he harms himself much more than he does us, we all have each others to feel warm and happy here, and he has cut himself from that.

I received an indirect mail from him (I was 'CC'ed), telling me that my welcome to him was fake, and I can only feel sad for all the happiness he misses. I mailed him back telling him just that, I hope for him that he will pay attention. But it is up to him.

I believe the matter is closed now, and we should all go back to our business of sharing and laughing and thinking and caring. Let's have a dance ! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

WANNA PASS ME A BEER??? THANKS!!!!!!

Lord Shield 05-26-2001 12:34 PM

Ok. Still sore at him for banning Moiraine but she is back with us now. WE MISSED YOU, MO. I can understand him being sore if he thought his wife was being ostracised (I would too). It's a shame so much collateral damage occurred. I tried to placate things while he was hear (as did Blademaster) but everything we said got twisted.
.
You're right, Mnem. I shouldn't have carried on Flaming after he'd been banned. It's not the grown up thing to do (and I am 31) and can reflect on this board. Hopefully we can get onto more positive things (in the meantime I registered with GameBanshee http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gifhttp://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif)

No problem. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif What makes me really unhappy is that Lady Nightshade, while she is NOT banned, cannot post, because Ken is and they share the same IP. She's kind of caught in the middle of all this. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif
