This post is more than likely exactly why drocket may have closed the doors. The constant bickering. Damn, we cant stop bickering even when WoD no longer exists.
And yes, I know we all can still login, but its still not WoD.

Thanks, Herakles

I concur.

This has been my reason for taking a long break many-a-time.

Just for the record, I never partook in any 'bickering', as you put it, during all my time on WoD. What I posted originally made perfect sense and I don't see how the hell it is representative of any sort of 'reason for closing the shard post'. 'Go Aimee wooot!' - shame she's talking out of her backside eh?

Well your one to talk Bodal. I had no clue about the Project and don't you dare tell me I need to start reading the boards. Frankly I don't need yet another Marius chewing me out. And it's funny how you are saying your NOT bickering and that it is your business and I now agree it IS our business but you are bickering. You and Zan. No matter what you don't hush I know it's hard to get over and that TheWorldOfDreams will never be the same. However can't you be a little bit happy it's not gone forever? Also that Drocket even ran it and made many people happy for 5 years? (or less) I'm not saying your post is not worth while just you took a little too much time pointing your finger. It is BACK and I have logged on many times but I dont think we should really give leaps of joy yet. It's kinda deserted now and the Halloween decor doesn't make it feel cozy either. But hey at lest some of us are greatful it's back. Let's put an end to this post. No hard feelings.

Aimee, you're speaking like a child. Whenever something includes you, you make it seem through your words as if it didn't. You changed your argument also. IT is not back, as Laephis said, but I'm happy that a shard is still up. This is also very childish, but "it takes two to argue" and you were definitely arguing. No hard feelings does not change a post, but I never meant to insult anyone.

Oh, for God's sake...

Just agree to disagree and move on.

Ever think that Leaphis is looking in on these posts and is trying to see if the same old crap happens? Ever think he might be testing our civility? What if we fail this test? I for one don't want the shard to close again because people couldn't even get along for a few days after the shard was reopened.

Pick your battles that are WORTH fighting, people. Don't bicker for the sake of bickering.

Ok Zan I ment "no hard feelings" as I am not getting involved in this rather rude conversation. You all can bicker but I'm done.

Agh, more distancing, whatever. This is pointless.

*is going to put his two points in wondering why he even had the want to come back to post on this website as he comes right out and says it*

This is why I didn't come back.........

*goes back to doing whatever he does*

Yes......what Orion said!!

People, It's just a game & always has been! Meant to be enjoyed!

My opinion is and always has been, that if you want to bicker with someone about something, open your front door and pick someone or something out there in real life.

heh I can't believe this thread is still going...
Drocket didn't 'run the shard for five years', I believe Dundee was initially lead developer. Futhermore, Arc completely ran WoD (with Drocket doing the technical stuff) for 3 years and did a funky job. When he left things went down hill.

But then I guess it's hard to remember stuff that happened before you were born, eh Aimee?

Ciao funksters.

Oh very mature to add ages.I may not be very old, but I have questions and answers and in between. Plus it shouldn't be age that matters. Age is the LEAST important thing that matters. A lot of people dont know my age until I tell them. As for the running of the shard...I'm not that high tech OR very educated on the "shard years". So I can't disagree with much about that. Sorry for incorrect or misheard info.

Mwahahahahhaa!

Oh yes, it's me.

Aimee, say 'hi' to your mum for me. Also, quit squabbling with the others or I'll tell on you.

Double Mwahhaahaha!

As to the rest of the egotsitical one-upping and arguing, ~*yawn*~, same-old, same-old. Granted, none of it is as witty and enlightening as what I write but hey, I can't blame you all for trying to fill the enormous void my disappearance has made. In fact, I'm deeply touched that you would try. Really!

Thanks for the honourable mention, funkster. Cudos to you.

Anyway, I didn't really bother to read this post because it's about a topic which no-one has the capacity to talk about as an informed (and therefore authoratative) person. Have you asked Drocket why, instead of crucifying him? Have you heard his side of the story?

It's not really a surprise that people form a mob mentality against someone to blame for their woes. Take a moment and think that without Drocket for the past few years, WoD may not have existed at all. Or it may have been under the reign of someone worse, and you wouldn't have had the grand experiences you all say you treasure and love. It's hypocritical to say you love WoD and hate Drocket; for the better part of many years, Drocket was WoD.

Don't betray him now, because of his shortcomings, especially if you're not determined to do better. I seem to recall in the dying days of WoD, half of the people here were content to let it die. Shame on you, I say, if you come back now with hot opinions and pushing the blame on others.

As for Drocket, I was fortunate enough to talk to him and the rest of the admin upon the demise of the shard, and despite 'real feelings' coming forth, I was possibly one of the few enlightened people there.
But I will not insert logic into this rather inappropriate squaking either. Also, I expected muffins and popcorn at my great return, not grapes!

(how's that for random?)

In any case, my beloved and sometimes-ignorant WoDians, I must say that I have dearly missed you all as you have no doubt missed me. Perhaps, I may make a cameo, but perhaps not. The final season of WoD was certainly very emotive, and several people had the nerve to tell me 'how they really felt'.

Grow up, WoD. Learn from the experience that nearly killed what you love and start working together. A lot was lost in the last little drama, and yet the same mistakes repeat. It's an old adage that goes 'you reap what you sow';

It's time to start investing in WoD.

Gee Marius glad your not my teacher. Mar you are right but you put your posts so bluntly that we're not sure if your a robot or a person like the grinch. Either way I think people get mad at you because you can't clearly see the message your making half the time. Lightin' up! Oh and mum's doesn't care about The New Shard. Plus don't care if you tell on me! MWHAMWHAMWHAMWHA
