Policy imperfections

12:26 AMMy character name is Twinker, has been for the past 2 years including the time I spent on zone.com . Not ever have I had trouble with my name or anyone twards my name. Personally, when I read policy 6 , I thought it was a load of you know what, because it was too generalized. I have plenty of reasons to be able to keep my name and yet a GM, who will remain unnamed, keeps pulling her wieght and prolonging the process of appeal. It seems I can't defend myself because one GM got mad at me for expressing my thoughts on scripters and decides to get at me for an innocent post turned offencive.

Lest me not forget to mention the night EN opned and the game went down I was sitting quietly in the LCI room and when I came back, my roll,money and stuff were gone, and the GM who put me there send's to me a message along the lines of "haha, you'll have to REROLL and RENAME now." . Post some policy defects you have experianced and experiances like mine and any advice ou have to offer. reg
01:09 AMok I went through some of the folders and saw the GM who is giving me trouble be named, so I will here say who it was that gave me the shaft, Andraste. He/She Claimed my name was derogetory for a homosexual......I can prove she/he has it out for me cause I have a friend on the inside who particiated in a conversation involving me and my name. Ain't life grand when you can catch a bigot at work ?

I never heard of a homosexual being called Twinker. But, I am not into that loop either. Maybe she has her own Twinker to play with.

Have you posted on the boards about this? On the Simu Discussion part? I think I might if you don't mind.

03:47 PMDumb name ? how would you know ? do you know the character ? I think you have issues too reg
07:05 PMMy post of Twinker's situation got removed from the unofficial boards by the man. So read what I posted and and what I wrote back to this bigot. By allowing Andraste to be a bigot, GSKarec is a bigot to.

this was posted on some unofficial boards. I thought the lands should know
about this....

----------------------------------------------------

first post.

My character name is Twinker, has been for the past 2 years including the
time I spent on zone.com . Not ever have I had trouble with my name or
anyone twards my name. Personally, when I read policy 6 , I thought it was a
load of you know what, because it was too generalized. I have plenty of
reasons to be able to keep my name and yet a GM, who will remain unnamed,
keeps pulling her wieght and prolonging the process of appeal. It seems I
can't defend myself because one GM got mad at me for expressing my thoughts
on scripters and decides to get at me for an innocent post turned offencive.

Lest me not forget to mention the night EN opned and the game went down I
was sitting quietly in the LCI room and when I came back, my roll,money and
stuff were gone, and the GM who put me there send's to me a message along
the lines of "haha, you'll have to REROLL and RENAME now." . Post some
policy defects you have experianced and experiances like mine and any advice
ou have to offer.

second post....

ok I went through some of the folders and saw the GM who is giving me
trouble be named, so I will here say who it was that gave me the shaft,
(taken out so the post doesnt get pulled). He/She Claimed my name was
derogetory for a homosexual......I can prove she/he has it out for me cause
I have a friend on the inside who particiated in a conversation involving me
and my name. Ain't life grand when you can catch a bigot at work ?

----------------------------------------------------

Since when is Twinker a derogetory name for Homosexual. I may be out of the
loop. But this GM has done this before and had a big discussion on these
boards about it. Why is the behavior being allowed?

My reply......

Ya right. I will post your warning on the unofficial boards so everyone can see how stupid it was. The only way the person was going to be able to keep their name was if people got angry over it and complained to Simutronics how they are fed up with the idiot Andraste's abuse. But, once again you showed lack of intelligence. Thanks for nothing and have a bad day.
