I'm probably one of the only ones who sympathizes with Alan.  I'm not agreeing that what Alan said was the right thing and I'm not agreeing with what others are saying.  I've noticed this site has been a tad wee bit more hostile in the past couple of weeks.  In my own logic I can pinpoint where things started to go wrong, which is a completely different story, but this whole Alan thing has just thrown a match into a gas filled room.

Alan, I do sympathize with your situation and I hope things work out, but this isn't the place to talk about our personal problems and it's not the place to give colorful advice on what to do with those problems.  If you want to cuss Alan out, do so in  a PM, otherwise this kind of shit happens and the whole board gets involved, gets mad, then other fights start breaking out, and before you know it we're all enemies.

And for the record, you should drink Jones, not Bawls.



Be excellent to each other

I didn't know what they were. I thought it was just soda. I know, I'm dense.
I'm now going on 60+ hours with no sleep, except for a half hour nap earlier today, when something happened and a whole thread diappeared. I have a sickening feeling I had something to with it. If that's true I apologize.

OK I'm ready to read some scripts now,
Mike, George, Greg tell me what you want me to read and I'll do it know while I'm still wired.

Oh Yeah, buske means bush in Swedish.

Yeah, you know that thing are getting out of hand when an entire thre page thread is dedicated to insulting one member.  

My advice?  Settle down. You call Alan immature yet here you all are mocking him and calling him names.  Just let it go, find something better to do, let him have his fun, rise above it.

Yes Breanne, I do think you were being to harsh.  This thread, your original post, was not here to enlighten us, but to get revenge.  But whatever.  I'm going to bed.

Revenge for what though? He's never done anything to her.

I think you guys read that whole other thread out of context, everybody makes it like something bad happened.

Compared to how Curse went out, Balt, VKonstant and Elrond and even Casey this was like a bag of water... One prick and it's all over, for me anyway.

Not to get revenge, I don't think. I think someone should say something public that will embarrass Alan so that he'll stop. I don't know if this has done the trick or not, but PM's don't always have the shock value of a thread. Sometimes you've got to be heard, and when it comes to being to harsh, I think Alan deserves whatever Alan gets...

I start to visit the board regularly and then, everybody starts fighting.  Maybe I should go back to Simplyscripts hibernation.  Maybe that will stop all the arguing and stuff.  I bring bad karma wherever I go.

Not to be a fuddy-duddy, but just to point out Rule #3...

3. Do not be disrespectful of other members, do not put down other members of the board, do not attack or encourage others to attack a member of the board.

Alan is who he is, and no one is going to change that. After awhile, you get used to his antics, and you just ignore him when he acts up. No reason to get hostile or over the top about it. Does he shamelessly promote his masterpiece every chance he gets? Yes. Will he always do this? Yes. Will he ever write anything else? Who cares.

On my side, did Alan put anything on that thread that irked me? Sure. But as I had nothing nice to say in return, I left it alone. This thread, like the last one, is getting out of hand. I doubt anyone will be banned over the issue, but this "Little Darling" needs to end. We need to go back to writing which is why we're here.

Now go over to the WIP board, and tell me how to fill out the middle of my freakin' story!

Man...this is so true....of anybody.

Why, then, is it so very, very hard?

This seems like good advice.
