You were implying what you were implying. I'm not being paranoid. I don't need to "search" for any "hidden meaning", it's all out in plain view with you. I'm not doing anythhing to anyone, maybe figure that out and please don't stuff words in other people's mouths. Thanks a bunch!
There is no "ahalee cycle", my posts have been pretty rational and logical tbh. I don't assume everyone is out to get me and I was a victim of a scam as are many people in this world. There are legit and illegitimate reasons to kick others out of a party. I haven't made any drama.
I have not stalked, nor harassed anyone. You have me blacklisted because you don't want to be confronted in-game about trolling me on the boards.
No.Quote:
You were implying what you were implying.
I was not implying anything. I used the exact words to state exactly what I meant. No percieved implication on your part is correct. The literal words and only the literal words are what I mean. Period.
I am done with this conversation, you can not accept that people actually mean what they say and read too far into things. Until you do something about this, you're going to continue having these kinds of arguments with nearly everyone you interact with. This clearly isn't the only time you've run into this situation, and you really need to ask yourself why that is and what you can do about it.
It is really not easy at all to earn a spot on my ignore list- far more difficult than probably anyone else here.
Good bye.
Who decided what is and isn't a legitimate reason to kick anyone? You?
A party leader can kick whoever they like for whatever reason. It's not that big of a deal. You are entitled to whatever feeling about being removed from a party but throwing a fit like you have since Christmas, going on a campaign to try to ruin multiple people's enjoyment in the game and, spread falsehood, is simply sad. If you're just trolling, it's not even a good troll.
But congrats on ruining whatever reputation you may had on Bahamut, everyone who knows about your yelling drama wants to stay away and not invite you.
But you will ignore all of this and just go ahead and call me a troll and me harassing you.
I never said I decided what a legitimate reason to kick someone is. It's either legitimate or it's not. You may want to read the ToS that you agreed to, to be able to play this game, because it seems like you didn't bother the first time. The party leader cannot orchestrate an in-game scam and therefore cannot kick for the purposes of that. I haven't been throwing any fit. I think you're just looking to libel someone over the official forums with that at this point. I'm not on a campaign to ruin anyone's enjoyment, quite the contrary. I don't want anyone to have the same experience getting scammed by Euvedant/Lecroucond that I did. I haven't ruined my reputation by the way.
I seriously do think you should grow up and stop trolling others. Thank you.
The only illegitimate reason to kick someone out of a part is as a form of harassment. The TOS covers no reasons for kicking someone from a party to be a rule violation. Even if someone wanted to make a case for scamming (which would require a transaction), that's it's own rule and doesn't directly have anything to do with kicking people. Scamming is a player dispute. GMs in some cases have mediated such disputes (i.e. telling users to give money / items back, or whatever), but generally this isn't punished by the TOS with bans or suspensions.
This guy really just can't let this go can he? Never heard of quitting while you're behind, just keeps digging a bigger hole.
.... it's almost like I've ran into myself
So in-game scams are against the ToS, if someone is kicking someone to effectuate that, then they are breaking the ToS. Pretty simple. The ToS does cover it. There was a transaction. Its called time investment for an implied return in this case and it CAN have something to do with kicking people if that is what is required to effectuate the scam.

It seems like someone isn't able to cope with not having the last word.
There's so few of us left. Has age not improved ourselves on how we treat one another? Do we really need to act like we're all still in our teens and 20s? I mean, we're all who we are but it's been over 20 years. Age can and does change people. Maybe the youngest buck around here is up to their teens for XI experience. Am I the only one who ran out of the energy for MMO arguments like ten or fifteen years ago?
I let go of my vitriol for player strangers a long time ago when I realized I was taking things out on innocent players who never brought any harm against me. I was harsh to people for the sins of the many youthful players back in the early days. I became very angry that people would give me crap over my name. They never wanted to hear how I came up with it. They just went straight to mocking for somehow misspelling it. Some even went well past that to downright harassment by their own free will that I didn't encourage in the least by anything I said, that to this day I have their names on my blacklist. None of them are playing anymore, and I don't even know how to clear it. XI was my first MMORPG. Like a child being raised by their parents, I learned how to be nasty to people from my experiences in game. I thought it was the thing to do, the way to be.
My rep will probably never recover as far as any forums go. My more youthful stances and nature early on on these forums have ensured that. I've been tempted more than once of server jumping, creating a new char with the same name here, so I could transfer back and change my name. But I don't do it because I am owning up to the rep I stuck myself with. And I push on here, farming my mythics while my bro squad is on their yearly break, alone. As I deserve. But at least my bros know the real me. If not for my friends who were forgiving enough to play around me, I'd probably been gone from here 18 years ago.
What I hope for, besides SE finding a heart to spend the money and make XI great again just for us so it can be updated like a normal MMO that doesn't have a trillion people playing it, is everyone today can look back at their youthful selves playing MMOs and say(if they deserve it) 'wow what an asshole. Let's be better now.' XI had a way of creating monsters. Well that's long gone now and the game is all the better for it. Why can't we move on and be better, too? Be less confronting. Be less dismissive. Think how you can put something into words that come from your point of view rather than stating it like it's a cold hard fact. That one is alittle hard to let go. We all think our opinion is a matter of fact I don't care if you're 15 or 55.
If you're reading this you're probably in your late 30s to early 40s, hell maybe some 50s even. I know at least one couple who are probably in their very late 40s or early 50s. I know it seems important to defend yourself, or to put someone in their place. I say this with all the pieces of my heart: Let it go. You are half way through your life, give or take 10 years. Let it go, and leave the gamer vitriol for the young.
Given that I wasn't even participating in these forums until my name got dragged into a topic out of nowhere, I feel like this is a false equivalency. The fact of the matter is that Rinuko and Alhanelem are continue to act as the aggressors here in this situation to the detriment of this topic and board and just won't let things go.
Yeah, 40 here. Started playing in college. And you're right about most of this. It's not always easy but we really all should be getting more chill in our old age lol. I see also that like me you popped on here at the very beginning. :)
And one last genuine piece of advice: Stop caring so much what other people think. if several pages worth of posts are made and people are still arguing, it should be obvious at that point that no one involved is going to budge on their feelings. If you can't convince someone after a few posts, then oh well. let them remain in ignorance. Which is something I need to remind myself of as well.
Stop feeding the damn trolls and ignore them. Go back to ignoring the whole site, there's nothing of value here.
Devs and reps dont care about your opinions and no one cares about your honor or whatever you think you're defending. All you're doing is entertaining trolls.
I'm not acting as any aggressor. You have been trying to paint me as the bad guy since I called you out on your definition of being "scammed" on Reddit.
You then have followed me around in-game, spamming me with lies and harassing me both in-game and by making 20-30+ Reddit accounts.
Not to mention how much you tried to throw me and others under the bus in yells when I haven't even interacted with you.
Meanwhile, here you're trying to come off this innocent and pure person who gets everyone's heat unprovoked. You're fake.
There is a reason I need to have you blocked everywhere, otherwise I see comments like this.
Grow up and enjoy the game, or leave. I couldn't care less.
Nothing but good things have/will come from this thread.
I don't see myself as old, however at the same time, I was chill before this mess happened and I still feel like when I wasn't chill that I wasn't out of line for being not chill given the circumstances.
Obviously you should take your own advice on not caring what others think given you've been taking left and right cheap shots at me for a while now. Just saying.
I'm not going to put up zero defense while people come onto forums and try to defame me and sludge my name. That doesn't make sense to me at all. It shouldn't make sense to anyone really.
I care about my rep and I feel strongly that that it what I am defending by coming on here to defend myself after my name was dragged onto these boards unprovoked in an effort to defame me.
You clearly have been acting as the aggressor party and anyone can see that based on your post history that hasn't been edited to try to cover things up. I never followed you around in game at all or anyone else for that matter. I never even sent you any /tells. You aren't even on the same server anymore as far as I know. I'm not on Odin. I never once mentioned you in /yell.
I never said I was perfect, if I was perfect I wouldn't have let Euvedant get under my skin when he /yells for groups with zero remorse for things he has done. I wouldn't have wasted hours of my time in /yell with that mess that day earlier this month. There's other things obviously too. I'm not claiming anything you're acting like I'm claiming in that regard. At the same time the heat has been unprovoked.
If you want to block me go ahead. I'm not going to lose sleep over it. But I doubt you will because it seems like you just want to troll me honestly.
That's exactly what you should do. This is the internet, what happens there stays there. Why are you getting emotionally invested in a dispute with people you've never seen and will never actually meet and don't really know anything about (and vice versa)?Quote:
I'm not going to put up zero defense
But, people said things on the Internet. If they get away with it then what message does that send to all the unwashed masses?!
Next thing you know we will have an unfettered horde of bots plaguing the game while people argue over old level capped fights no one thinks about.
Hello Ahalee. I was talking to Spicy because he was indirectly referring to a conversation I was having elsewhere. If I was mocking anyone, it was myself, as because that way we can all have a laugh without anyone feeling bad.
I feel sorry that people like you think everything is against them, when more often than not it is neither intended for you, nor particularly against you. It is doubly sad that you choose to attack everyone in your close vicinity, and I would ask that if you are doing so in good faith that you stop and consider yourself.
I don't lie, sonny - that might be something you like to do, but I dropped that sort of behaviour in preschool.
I was referring to the portion of Spicy's post that was referring to a discussion I was having elsewhere on the forum. Nothing to do with you. You've just proved my point with your comment.
It's clear that you're acting in bad faith for some weird reason (I guess you find it entertaining? ok...), which should have been obvious from all of the other interactions you've had across this forum since you started posting the other week. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but that doubt's now gone. As with other posters here, I'll now mute you. Feel free to have whatever last word on the matter you want.
Sad that you have to call names to try to prove you're right when you clearly aren't. You can repeat a lie as much as you want but it doesn't make it the truth. You were taking a swipe and myself and the person who started going after me. It's obvious I'm not acting in bad faith.
It is impossible to reason with them. Everyone is out to get them and ruin and defame them and the world has to know what horrible people we all are.
They never stop and consider the fact that them having this problem with basically everybody might indicate that maybe, just maybe, they aren't taking the most optimal approach to interpersonal interaction, and rather than taking offense to people trying to explain this to them, acknowledge that they aren't perfect and have some things they can work on- like not treating every even slightly critical comment as a personal attack.
you can link to images here, if they don't display properly, after uploading an image right click on it and click "copy image link" rather than using the link the image site provides, and then in the post, click the picture icon on the formatting bar and paste in the link there.
That said, you probably should have made the popcorn earlier :p
The last post in this thread was over a month ago, you could have just let it die. No one else needs to no the IRL deets, if you have to take action IRL, you do so, it doesn't need to bleed back into here. Everyone else had moved on and accepted that this person isn't playing with a full deck already lol
I don't think any giver of legal advice would advise posting publicly about the issue like this.
**This is not legal advice, and this thread really should be locked.
I didn't realize you were a moderator. Anyway, Ahalee doxxed me last night and I chose to post in this thread for my own reasons. I'd be less concerned about my decision to post here and more concerned about a person on this forum commiting a crime. You might be their next target.
I never claimed to be. However, I am the OP of this thread, and I certainly didn't create it for this purpose. This forum is not the place to discuss IRL legal issues and if you're actually being doxxed, you shouldn't be posting about it for the world to see, you should be talking with a lawyer and keeping it in confidence.
I will not be dragged into an actual legal feud and I have reported this so that it will hopefully be closed and that will be the end of it. If I was an actual moderator and could do it myself, I would have done it already, because this is the kind of thing S-E wouldn't want to touch with a 10 foot pole, and I will not either beyond this point.
Thanks for reporting it and getting moderators eyes on it. Mission accomplished.
Still waiting for the screenshots. I posted mine, which includes you posting your motivation and saying you hope someone hurts me.
I'm not pretending to be a moderator and I'm not breaking any rules.
It's too bad I'm not though because trolling as you are now, IS against the rules.
Makes it plain and obvious that I am not nor pretending to be.Quote:

Looks like the last post before yours had been over a month prior... you could have let this just quietly bury itself, and now everyone has to see the "oh look, new posts in General" notification flag, and check in just to be disappointed with this.
Please, stop engaging. Let Ahalee and Jedigamer finish with whatever they're going through, it doesn't sound like they need an audience.
