list about a PBeM game I wanted to run. I got a few answers, but not many;
certainly not enough to run a campaign. So, I did the most logical thing.
I waited a week, and sent the post out again. I, again, received a few more
answers, the vast majority of which I never saw a character for. It was
suggested to me by one of the responders, when I mentioned that the game
would be impossible this semester due to lack of response, that I should post
it yet again. So, I did so. The same exact thing happened. I received a
few responses... but, AGAIN not the number of serious respondents that I
thought was necessary for the campaign I wanted to run.
I responded to ALL that sent me a character, "I'm sorry, but there just
wasn't enough response". Evidently, some of the persons concerned did not
receive such notification, and took it upon themselves to publicly ~flame~
me because of it.
THE POINT: The point is quite simple. It is not my _job_ to take
people on a campaign. It should not come down to petty childish bickering
and whining that they sent me a character and that quote"He must just need
characters for another campaign". This is garbage.
A word of warning for any who may be considering running a campaign via
email: Don't; unless you want to put up with a lot of abuse from childish
people.
Sick and tired as hell,
The Darknight
P.S.: Oh, and ANANDA... I couldn't use your character in another game, in
any case. It was incredibly illegal, and terribly conceived. Don't
flatter yourself. (That is not to say that I didn't _like_ it.)
