OOC: That's all good and I know you are following the rules... The thing is... The thing I've been trying to drill into all your heads... Is I want this to be realistic... I'm not going to stop you... But look at it this way... Imagine you were in the Star Wars galaxy, imagine (in your case Ric) that you'd lost your entire family through war... You had nothing but (again in your case Ric) the ability to pilot with skill.. Would you really start some frankly retarded quest to bring together the most attractive people in the galaxy?! And what the hell are you going to do with them once you've got them all together?!

And what the hell are you going to do with them once you've got them all together?! OOC: Hey wait a minute, who says my family has been killed? My wife is fine, not to mention all my kids. OOC: Also, I don't think it fair to use the word "retarded" in the way you did. My daughter Molly Olie has a learning disability, but she is a functional member of society. Please take that back. OOC: Lastly, if I have to explain to you how an attractive army is an advantage, well, look, I don't want to insult you...let's just say that it should be obvious how far attractive people get in life without any talent, right? Ric slipped away from Erica while she was busy listening for another sign of Leia. Ric knew that Leia couldn't possibly be on Naboo, given that she was currently on Coruscant, but Ric wanted to use the distraction to check on the others. Frankly, Ric was a little intimidated by Erica's...force powers. "Where the hell is Panaka?" Ric observed in a silent rage.

OOC: Well I'm sure your not using retarded in the right context anyway Ric Do you know what it actually means? Also about the attractive thing... Come on Ric... Do you not see how ridiculous it is... Like I'm not trying to insult you either.. But I mean come on... Like I really don't know what to do with you guys... Like it's so frustrating not knowing how to put across what I want to say without being rude and insulting... I'll try ONE more time... Think of this as real life... No-one would make an army of attractive people in real life... For so many obvious reasons! Now I could list loads but I'd rather not waste your time...

OOC: I'm sorry Han, but you are the one using retarded in the wrong way. It's a derogatory term when you use it the way you did. An administrator should not talk like that. Also you made a typo in your last post...

Erica had other things to worry about, besides Ric's understandable "male reaction" to being soo close to Erica. Erica, sensing no immediate danger, retracts her saber and quieted her mind...focusing on the growing interest is Ric's silly Beautiful People Club...or what ever it's supposed to be. Erica kept her eyes on Ric's hansom rear...and her mind on the other arrivals.
"I have a bad feeling about this...", Erica said to her sexy self.

OOC: No Ric, I know I used it wrong then, and that was in anger I guess.. But we all do it and can't be attacked for it... But do you know what retarded actually means? And thank you Leia, but I think for appearances I should fight my own battles... And Ric the only reason I'm slipping up on the whole admin thing is because there are so many immature idiots on here! Like everyone's getting better I'll admit.. Except Dirty who I'm kicking...

Ok... Way to much trouble... Generally it means part of your brain is un-developed... Look let's not make this an argument dude... You weren't idiotic in the beginning because you're an asshole... Just because you didn't have any prior experience with RP-ing... And you listened to what I had to say and learned...

Whoa! So you're saying that because I see the advantages of an attractive army, that makes my brain "un-developed?" And I'm an asshole? Where do you get off?
Look, do you have any other experience with forums? Are all the admins on your forums this offensive? Admins are supposed to be helpful to newbies and firm with trolls, not offensive to newbies who are trying to learn the ropes and fall in line. I'm sorry, but you should not use the term "retarded" to describe an idea you just don't agree with.
I apologize for ranting, but you've got me really worked up on this matter. It's a sensitive issue for a lot of people, and frankly, you should just apologize and not use "retarded" the way you did again. One day you'll realize that I'm right.
Oh, and you have a typo in your post.

OMG dude stop taking my words out of context! I apologise but you've got to understand that alot of people say it in jest... I actually have a friend who IS retarded so don't think for a second I'm using it to insult you with the correct meaning! And I said you're NOT an asshole!

Ok, I misread the asshole thing, sorry. But you have to understand that a lot of people are offended by the word "retarded" when used in that context, even if your friend isn't offended. I'll drop it now, I think I've made my point.
Oh, and I see another typo.

And yes, I'm VERY experienced with other forums... And I've always been an extremely nice admin... Except this time I thought I'd follow a fellow admin's way of leading (she's a real badass!)... So I'm going for the tough love way of things... Plus I really want to make this a good, serious, sensible RP... And that won't happen whilst people are making stupid RP ideas...! Dude please just empathise with me on this...
