Warning: Long-Ass Rambling Post

Hello, I'm R Nitelight. I've been a member for just under three weeks, and I've enjoyed every minute of it. Today, however, I fear I may have overstepped a little.

I enjoy the sexual roleplaying section, and am involved in several threads. When I was a dumb newbie, before I had any idea of what I was doing, I foolishly jumped in a thread and made what I thought was a wonderful contribution.
The participants, however, didn't see it that way. They issued a cease and desist order, whapped me on the nose with a rolled-up newspaper, and sent me on my way.
The new Literotica puppy, sadder but wiser, learned his lesson, and soon he started to fit in.

Then he joined in a thread called Dracula, stepping into the title role. I was graciously accepted, as so it started. Fine.
Then, another player asked to join in. Fine.
The more the merrier, I always say. I hope everyone gets a chance to play.

Here's where Nitelight oversteps.
The interaction between Dracula and the player who started the thread seemed to be going well. A little rough, but nothing that couldn't be worked out over the course of time.
The third player, however, introduced a character that I felt clashed with the story. I made a brief attempt to incorporate the character into the story, but I just didn't see it working.
I made a creative decision. I reached out and snapped the character's neck.
I'm Dracula, okay?
Pretty shocking move, right? Pretty gutsy decision, right?
Well the other players were none to pleased. And as I thought about it, I realized they were right. It's supposed to be fun. It's supposed to be inclusive. But I made an executive decision.
I'm Dracula, Dammit. There should be bodies all over the place. Still, I'm a little struck by my shortsighted insensitivity, and I wish to end this post with a heartfelt apology to anyone who was bothered by this decision.
Did anyone actually read this whole damn thing? Any opinions?
 
Snap them necks, Drac, and don't let the idiots get you down. If you wanna see some real thread ending, neck snapping, gigglestuff, check out "Weekend Party."

Sometimes three is a crowd.
 
My hats off to you...

it takes a really strong person to not only realize when they might have done something wrong but, also admit it, and then go the extra mile and apologize!

I know if it were me you had nixed and I read this post I would forgive you!

I like your posts by the way!
 
Yeah I read it and though I don't participate in the sexual role playing, I do post in the online role playing section. See, the thing is, the people you write with, well they can ruin an entire thread with stupid post and in our section of the board, we had a bum that messed up so many threads it was unbelievable. Many of us complained to the boards moderator Havocman and I recieved a very nice e-mail that told me that the bum was entitled to post. It made me mad at the time but I've come to see the wisdom that Havoc spewed from high. You have to learn to deal with the bad as well as the good. If you want to stack up bodies make up a character that you can kill off with great glee.

By the way, playing nicely with bums makes you a more creative writer!!
 
UH......

i didnt think this was a big deal, nite hun, you are making this a big deal! IN NO WAY SHOULD I BE THE AIM OF ALL THIS SLAPPIN. i posted asking whether i could join...the reply...yes...i asked if you wantedt he character to be directed in any way, sort of like guidelines...you gave me freedom. so therefore i took it. if you didnt like my character it is up; to your discretion to kill her. whatever. it doesnt bother me, i m involved with many other threads. i am however insulted that you think that my post has ruined your story. that is the greatest insult that someone can give OR GET. i added a colorful character, and you killed her. FINE. i seriously dont care. but to make things worse you just ramble on and on about it. drop it, im sorry if i ruined your thread, you will learn that posts go with the bad and the good, and some that you consider bad, just arent your taste. so let the person know that you dont like the character. and be done with it. im sure everyone on the board has gone through this. it is an everyday occurance, like the sun setting. continue your thread, i will join as any character oyu would like. or i may not post at all. just dont insult me. ambrosious, i agree, but i would hope to god that i wouldnt be in that category. i have not messed up any threads, i am deeply involved with a few. this is the first thread i have had a complaint with. and forget...AMEN i agree, i do forgive you, i wasnt mad in the first place, just a tad irked. hope your thread thrives
 
LG,
I appreciate your kind understanding, but it wasn't my thread. It was ShyGoddess'. I was just the hired help, and I was the one who was stepping on toes, so I'm the one trying to set things right. I also posted it on this board so that it might reach a wider audience, and provoke some discussion.
Again (And for the last time, I swear!) I apologize, and hope we can get on with the fun & games.
We cool?
We cool!

Best Wishes,
R Nitelight
 
Lava,

No it wasn't you. It was that Morgoth guy that stepped on a lot of toes. And you know what, he started a thread asking us to decide if he should keep posting. HAHAHAHAHAHA! God I loved that chance to unload!

P.S. Love your work by the way!

I thought long and hard about what I wanted to say here. And here's my take on the whole situation. Yes, it's true it's not a big deal, but it brings up an interesting point. Some people make hasty decisions and like some(ummm...Morgoth) they don't learn from their mistakes. But I think that nite has and so we should all just move on. I think that Lava should come back to the thread as whatever she wants and that nite should continue to be Dracula, since he was doing such a good job of it, and anyone else who wishes to join, feel free. The only thing that I ask is that we all not be so hasty in our desisions in the future. I've said it before and I'll say it again. A character that wasn't planned on could add an amazing twist to the story that makes it just that much better.

The Shy one
 
It's fiction. It's not real life. And it's supposed to be fun. Have fun with it, and don't take it all too seriously. That's my view on it.
 
It's a shame the thread had such problems. It really looked promising, and all 3 participants are good writers. I hope it can be salvaged.
 
YAY

>timidly walks in< so i can still play? YAY. and thank you for thinking we all are good writers. it is an honor to have that said. and i would love to stay my character. i thought about it, and think it would be an interesting twist, specially cause for once i dont even know what im gonna do with her. sorta a spur of the moment gal. >humbly bows, and exits<
 
I read the first few posts of the Dracula... thread and wanted to get in on it, but I didn't think there would be space for me. I would suggest to everyone that they look at the thread and see if another character of the type you w\ish to enter would fit into the story...
 
shila be evil with me...or be a vampire hunter, and hunt me down...lol...or just be creative, i know you can be and dixon..SHAME ON YOU>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
LOL

They can't all be gems, folks.

Shila you little cunt you started this with your snotty kindergarten remark so I'm just playing at your level. By the way, your momma is so fat...
 
My level? I have my own level now? not only groupies and critics, but my own LEVEL!!! What? What do you mean it's not the penthouse? You mean I have to audition for Penthouse? Hmm...

Hey Dixon! Come here! ;)
 
OMG....DCL...what has happened to you?
