I haven't really posted on TDC in a while. However, in all that time, I haven't entirely left. I read all the posts, so I generally know what's been going on.
It seems to me that TDC is in an uproar at this point. JDog is kinda gone, Howl is having some issues and everything is changing. Not to mention alot of people (myself included) have some issues with certain members which keep them away from posting.
I ask you, my fgellow members, is this the end of TDC, or is this the beginning of a new type of desert? Because from the tumult I've read and heard about and seen, I can't say I'm very confident for the future of the website. I think we all need to stand back, observe what's been going on, and try to fix it.
And with that- reply if you wish.

We don't need anymore negativity. It's only made things worse fo everyone.
But for once, just throw your grudges out the bloody door. THey've done us all no good.
I don't think it's quite as hectic as it seems. A few members are clashing, but it's not sending the whole place into turmoil.
If you'd unblock me then maybe we can have a civil discussion.
And this topic was made to adress the negativity in a civil, orderly manner. Putting it down in the opposite fashion won't help at all.
I don't want this site to change! I love it as it is now... it's such a great place to be. We all need to try to peacefully coexist with one another, or petty things like arguments can tear us all apart.
What?
I'm just going to let go now. If you want to talk to me, do it over PM.
Let's just throw our grudges out the door. Just... throw them out.
So what do the mods and Gamefreak propse we do to calm this place down? It may not be as bad as it seems, or maybe IM overreacting, but nonetheless, it is bad here.
EDIT: OKay, JQ. But I'd really rather IM, seeing as how it's much more convenient.
I really don't think this is even close to being on the scale of the rugby incident, and we made it through that...
On the scale i'd give the rugby thing an 8 and this a 7. And the reason for that is the amount of people involved is much wider.
too be honest, i never really left, I was just a guest alot of the time, you know, I can't help it, I love this site way to much to leave it completely, part of me wants to leave it forever, but alot of me wants to stay forever.
I'm staying here for good. I'll only be gone when I'm completely unable to come here (computer breaks, vacation, school, etc.)
...It's not that big of a deal, you know. I honestly don't see why everyone's being so negative about the issue. It's not like, you know, we're swearing each other out. We just have different ideas of what should be allowed, and what shouldn't.
I think we should keep the site, you know, like... PG.
I don't know about you guys, but to me it seems that some members, mainly me, are having a brutal battle with their mind and inner being. And the select few who arn't are clashing with someone else. All I can say for the clashing with one another is making me go into Mod Mode, take it to PMs it can result in 3 warning, which are convo posting, insulting, and spam(if not on chatboard). Me and Ganon did that all the time outloud and it makes in unpleasent and rude to the rest of the site. Just a forewarning to all of you who don't read the rules. Anyway off of that, I'm trying to clear my mind. A really good friend of mine that I met off of WoW is sorta giving me therpy(in a way). He's not doing anything bad, just talking me through things. I don't know about the rest of the site though.

agreed! I agree with fisk.
O wow, you ageed, lol I'm just messing with you *gives JDog a noggie* I agree too!
ok people, there's nothing to see here! lets just all get back to our old natural selves and forget this ever happened! :D
Agreed, all things in normal mode again.
Im not surprised that things ended up like this, I chose to leave for several reasons. Between the constant grammar correction and most everybody being rude it didn't seem worth my time to stay. My decision to do so wasn't made lightly, For the past 2 weeks, I put allot of thought into what would be best to do.
I beg your leave.
I didn't know that you thought that way about our site.
I apologize for any discomfort you've had while you were here.
We here at TDC (Wow, I'm making this seem like I'm some sort of veteran member) wish only to engage in conversations and to get along socially in a friendly, socially acceptable environment. If any of you feel disquieted by the behavior on this site, feel free to tell us at any means, even if you're afraid that it may offend someone (as long as you don't flame/troll as you say it).
If you can't deal with the moderators or people constantly trying to help you become better, by all means leave.
Cheers,
Tacheon Alexander Black

its not all the time, but most of the time, I haven't really noticed any rudeness, but yea, lets all get on with our lives and forget these things ever happened.
*raises beer* then cheers to the future of TDC! May it be brighter than the brightest star! :)
wow, this is gonna be a really bright place in that case MK lol
*looks into the light* EKKKKKPPPP I'M BLIND!!!!!
*Eats the light* Sorry. I have problems... Have to be honest it's been a bit weird for me. I return to TDC only to find that everybody has either gone, changed their name or is too busy ripping other peoples throats out to talk! Still, things do seem fine now. May it last until the sound of a falling tree reminds someone of the colour purple.
I say we call a cease to all creations of depressing topics about the site falling apart.
Just STOP!
Actually, everything's better now. It's over.
