Quote:Then there is the whole scenario with LMA. I don't know what the whole beef was with Alei and Shell but it seems to me that whilst Alei didn't know LMA wasn't a real person, the fact that Shell was having a good laugh about it all behind Alei's back is again, not what I'd call very funny.
Let me clear this all up. I didn't make that troll account to fuck with anyone, but myself. The reason for it was because I didn't think I could pull off a troll on anyone else. The staff thought it would be funny if I did something that was fucking with Tibs and myself, to keep it simply and amusing.
Now, Alei joined in for whatever reason. I'm not going to speculate on her motives. I will say that she made a choice to step in and become involved. I did not make that choice for her. I only started messing with her when I saw that she was clearly lying because she sent a new member a PM containing a load of insults about me. What was I supposed to do, not laugh at that? It was fucking funny. I could have got pissed, but I didn't initially. I only got pissed when it turned into, "I didn't say anything wrong." when I had evidence to the contrary. I consider that squashed and if another insult comes out of it, I will be warning people instead of waiting.
As for the history of it, I let a bunch of personal attacks slide in light of her tenure here. I banned someone for doing something very similar to summer. I banned someone for doing it to Alei last year. I let it go when it happened to me. Unfortunately, I let it go so long that I finally lost my temper at an inopportune moment, when what I should have done was issued a warning and went about my business. It was not in the best taste, but I do not apologize for reacting to months of attacks. This thread clearly has a lot to do with that blowout, so I will say this, I should not have taken it to a personal level, but I did not and will not stand for what was being flung at me in light of the LMA situation. It was a joke. It turned into a have at Shell B fest. Shell B had at it back. /story
