Today
Three members left. I don't want to make that four.
Thus I am announcing that I am not leaving. Instead I will decrease my activity on the forum. I probably wont post anywhere that doesn't directly relate to a claim of mine. Here are my reasons:
-I don't think I get along with most of you. I annoy many of you, and many of you annoy me. It doesn't mix.
-My parents think that I spend all my time "rotting my brain out chatting online." Without the TR forum my time on the innernets will be a lot lower.
Nomadic: I wont be working on the Morrowind Districts, because this idea is[url=http://forums.tamriel-rebuilt.org/viewtopic.php?t=11443]futile.[/url] Apparently there aren't six districts; I have no idea where we got that idea!
Vernon: I got mad at you a lot for a while. I want to make it clear that I respect you.
Majra: Do you check your PMs often, or are mine just ignored? Note, please, that I am still a Welcomer.
Massalinie: I'm sorry.
EDIT: Wow, I had to edit the first line because it's 3 members.

Well Sload Lord, I have to agree that some people may have found that things you said to be offensive. BUT they were also very efficient. You cleared aside the crap and made things work smoothly. I found your posting amusing. Your ideas are good, and they work well. Well thats just my opinion, don't ban me if some admin doesn't agree with me.

Man, I know I smell bad, but I'd like it if at least ONE person would at least step forward and tell me! I don't even want that gratification anymore...
Laughter aside, I never found you to be annoying. Which may have blinded me into thinking you didn't find me annoying. Did I annoy you? Cause I would be really angry with myself if I came back only to make, like, FOUR really cool people leave. Either way, I don't really understand these complex relations, I have just recently returned, so without further nosing around and being a punk.
BYEZ I'M SOZZRY U LEAVEING!!!!

I never said mine was final. I said it was important to join in because the districts needed to be decided soon.
The only thing I said was fact (which I was told wasn't "solid" was the number of districts. Any scout on Vvardenfell will tell you that. Am I the only one who talked to Elone? She was really cool and you were missing out.

I think you're pretty damn cool actually and I would personally prefer it if you stick around. Your knowledge of lore is important and you aren't afraid to question things. Even though we had had a few arguments, we managed to get over it. Just so you know, I have come to respect you also.

In some ways I think these forums hurt TR more than they help it, asside from the fact that without the forums there would be no TR.
What I'm trying to say is this, and note, this is not directed at anyone, just a saying I've had since I first joined:
"Shut up and mod"
If everyone where to do this, we'd be done.

But we do this for fun... if it's all work then who of us would still be here? I know I would have left a long time ago.Noirgrim wrote:In some ways I think these forums hurt TR more than they help it, asside from the fact that without the forums there would be no TR.

The idea is to have fun while doing something. we all have plenty to do in our lives that isn't fun, and if this wasn't fun, we might as well just be doing those other things.
Hmmm design epic role playing game mod or realphabetize my sock drawer? tough question.

How can you alphabetize your sock drawer? That sounds suspiciously like a challenge...
People come and go. There's nothing you can really do about it, and making these posts usually only upsets more members than actually bringing anything to light/helping. It's a lost cause. If people want to go, they'll go. If they want to stay, they'll stay. Simple as that.

ok! *hugs nemon*
We ARE doing this for fun, as has been said, but we also have to remember that we do have a goal here, I think that if we don't push ourselves to work, the work will never get done. Sometimes modding can get really tedious and people need a break and thats what the forums help with too, but in a way, I think the lounge is dragging us down. I hate to say it because I myself love the lounge, however when people are bored or have nothing to do, they go there instead of looking for other work. I'm not saying we should get rid of the lounge, I'm just saying that we need to sort out our priorities here.

You know if we followed this advice TR will never be released. For the reason that there will be no TR. Or maybe only you and Koth working on it. This kind of attitude is W.R.O.N.G.. I was accused (for my sig) that I thought TR was work - not fun. Hear me people - I don't want TR to turn into work. If it ever will - I'm outta here with the next train. Yes, it will be hard. But I will leave. That's for sure. Every time I see the phrase like this I feel sorry for the guy who told it. We are here to mod, to mod for the sake of modding, to mod for the sake of fun. If you close these forums (let's pretend that we will have other means of organizing things) TR will be gone.Noirgrim wrote:"Shut up and mod"
Personally I can do a city per day. But what city it will be ? Plain. Uninsteresting. Copy-pasted. Like Beth city. I agree that every claim of mine takes shitload of time. But why ? Because I make it until I'm satisfired with it's looks. Until I really think that the player will remember the hut of a drunkard not by a waterfall in the middle of it but because it feels like house of a drunkard. I must agree that sometimes I can produce a shitty claim. The reason - lack of inspiration and desire to make it quicker. I don't want to call myself a super modder but I noticed one small thing - the quicker I try to make me claim - the worse it looks.
So hurry up and go to work people. Now.

Guys, we go through this every spring. Whether it's the end of the school year or rutting season, we always have people quitting, people getting mad, people apologizing, people hugging. And then we get back to modding for another year.
So let this old orc buy the next round; it'll be a strong one. Good to see things are normal around here.

heheh, Im with Grey. We can always count on people bitching alot about their views on the project at this time of the year, I dont know what it is either. Still, nevermind.
And all that dancing crap, that should be gotten rid of too - things get too homoerotic around here. Call me a cumudgeon, but hey, thats what me and Grey are here for!
