    No one gives a crap

    I see noone gives a crap about the fed anymore, most of the people do not roleplay, the last raw got no responces, I was at least expecting a few people to tell me their excuses, am I to understand there is no use continuing this?

    Re: No one gives a crap

    I don't know what to tell you. I wanna say to keep going on, but without RPs, it's pretty much impossible. It sucks too, because I just became champion, and now the place is dying out. I guess everyone took the Era of Darkness thing seriously.

    But yeah, I don't know man. Do what you feel is right. As much as I'd prefer defending the belt as a fighting champion and such, I can definitely live with being the last WWE Champion in the WWE Seasons.

It's the unwritten Law of Life, and that law favors myself, "The Debonair Millionaire" Darius Carter! I have it all: wealth, class, intellect, and natural-born talent.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    I'll be honest with you, I just got bored with it. It didn't seem like you guys were judging based off the roleplays, but just who you were more familiar with. Even SC said that he wasn't used to my style, and that's why I think I got thrown down a couple times, which doesn't even really bother me if there was a good enough angle to support it.

    Anton (Hall) and I were pretty much given a PPV match which was a rematch of the first show, minus Austin. It just didn't seem worth doing a promo to me, and apparently, the others didn't find it worth doing the promos for their matches either.

    So, I'd say let it "Rest in Peace".

    To be honest, after I got back from my morning class, I was definitely going to sign up for your e-fed. But I guess that's not gonna happen?

    Re: No one gives a crap

    I think that we all got sick of just getting put in random matches that didn't make any sense at all...There was no bulid up to the PPV... You just kinda said here is the card now RP... And you would do the most random things for shows like bringing Ric Flair out of now where and firing Lawler... We didn't really know what was going on?

    Yeah, build up to Backlash would have been really nice. It just felt like the shows were way too thrown together with no purpose or story behind them.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    I think a lot fo the stuff I read here is bullshit. I tried really hard to make this a success, I put up Raw on time, I tried to write Raw as well as I could, sometimes with a bit of assistance, sometimes all on my own, the thing I got hacked off with is, no matter how much I wrote, 'IF YOU DO NOT ROLEPLAY OR KNOW YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW BEFORE!' it's like noone seemed to take it, did not roleplay and then said after the results, oh yeah by the way they could not roleplay, or just did not give a crap and say anything. By the way, how on earth am I supposed to make fueds go on if noone seems to be fueding with anyone? I got no PM's saying these 2 people want to fued, what was I supposed to do, make fueds on my own? If you guys let me know that you wanted to fued with a certain person or something, I could incorporate it in to the matches. Personally I think I booked well, I did a lot of it on my own, my main aim was to get the Raw card up at a decent time and Raw up at a decent time and I think I did. As for the whole commentators being changed on Raw thing and Ric Flair being brought in, it was to make the storylines interesting so I don't see how that is a whole 'You don't have a clue what is going on' thing I mean it was done to make your read of Raw more interesting, a surprise element. RianSalvo, I was told you and Anton, I think you said his name is Anton, wanted to fued, that is why I made the PPV match, I was planning, if you wanted to continue the fued, to put in more, possibly gimmick matches at later PPV's, depending on how long the fued lasted. To be honest while doing the last Raw that was just a bunch of results I got the impression my roster are a bunch of lazy people who cannot be bothered to roleplay so why should I make the effort to do Raw. I mean I constantly said, if there is something you want to discuss about Raw, PM me. In the card it always said, if you want a match, or a segment PM me. I also said PM me if there is a storyline idea you have for the character you are using, noone did, so I assumed it was completely up to me how the storylines went. Anyway, I think the bottom line is a lot of people simply could not be bothered, if they wanted it to work but upset about how things were going, it would be simple to just tell me, either in a feedback reply or via PM.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    I certainly don't find it to be bullshit, for a simple reason here. Right from the start, there was a negative response to your booking, enough to where people quit and formed another fed on GR. With that type of start, the finish wasn't going to end pretty.

    It was an okay little run, it surely didn't last long though.

    And you won it in such an impressing way....You should be proud of yourself. Go ahead pat yourself on the back.

    As for Polak, i tried to talk to him many times and shoot ideas at him. But he always shot me down. And I had no control over who won the match. In polaks mind he was such a great GM. Honestly tho Polak, your ideas were pretty bad which is why I dropped from being Co-GM because we both saw RAW going two different ways. And obviously your way failed. And its not that people were to lazy to RP, it was that RAW was to unpredictable and IMO annoying.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    Well look who turned on me, I never remember you mentioning any of this to me on MSN, it was always a friendly thing and you kept on saying to me whatever way I want to do it is fine since I am in charge. The thing is you had an idea and thought it should happen, I took some on board but I also had my own, you did not like it so that is why you quite as Co-GM.

    Haha, says the guy who won the belt in a 6-Man Battle Royal only one other guy RPed for . Don't be a hypocrite.

    That's how SC does shit. I'm not taking sides or anything, just stating what I see. Can't trust a guy like SC as far as you can throw him.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    The only difference is I wasn't bragging about my title win. And even then at least still someone RPed.

    As for Polak, I came to you with a million ideas that you shot down. We should've gave the RPers two weeks to RP for Backlash. But you insisted that hey do it as soon as possible. Your card was always wack and I tried to suggest new matches and you would always tell me no.

    I actually got a hold of those who RPed for us and asked them what they wanted to do. Unlike just waiting for an PM from them. And when I brought it to you, you would just shrug it off.

    And as for turning my back on you. I hardly look at it that way. You're over here accusing people of being lazy. Most of which I have great respect for and no they wouldn't be lazy if they had someone who could handle the show. my advice to you is if you want to run a fed take it to a different site with different memebers.

    Re: No one gives a crap

    Time to throw my two cents in here. I had put in my RPs that I wanted to face JBL and if you are really paying attention to the RPs then you would've put me and Rattle_Snake in a match at Backlash. Sometimes you have to be creative and think of good storylines on your own if you want to run a sucessful feud.

    To just throw a card up and RP with no build up just isn't possible, in my opinion, and that's why I didn't RP for Backlash. Plus when you post a card only three or four days before a show and expect people to RP is a little silly as well. And your storylines with characters that don't mean anything to us was pointless. And you talk about people RPing but you only put yourself in one match during this whole process, so you didn't have to RP for anything.

    Overall though, I didn't think you did too bad, I would've looked at past shows first to see how stuff was done here. But your last show when you spent more time on your rant against the RPers than the show didn't fly too well with me. I'm a vet here and I wouldn't be talked down to. Things happen and to me, life is way more important than something that I find to be a headache.

    Bit late to respond, I was away from Gamingring for a while though. There was a reason for that, if you remember, I wrote the shows, long shows, so if I did that I knew I would not be able to put out a roleplay of quality as well as write up a show made up of 15 or 16 A4 pages. Therefore I put myself on the card less often.

    I understand people have things to do but I said on a number of occasions, if you simply do not have the time to roleplay please could you either tell me ASAP or if you are really short for time either leave or go out injured so you can still be there but not currently active. People still did not bother and so it annoyed me. I would check on who roleplayed once the deadline passed and there would usually be about 2 people who did, most of the time a lot less than half of the card, hardly something to motivate me to go ahead and write matches. By the way you being a 'veteran' made me rely on you and other veterans more and yet I could not since you hardly did a roleplay. As as I mentioned, I understand people sometimes do not have the time but there are 2 ways to do things. 1 is to let me know in a PM that takes a minute to write or the other is not to bother saying anything and make it look as if you do not give a shit. The 2nd is how people did things.

    As old and expired as this topic is, I'll go ahead and give some two cents on this matter. As shitty as the storylines and matches and the shows were, everyone who was not taking part of the matches, could of easily PMed him and put their characters on hiatus or what not. PCW died from the same problems, nobody bothered to communicate with anyone on what was going on.

    Ahem! Excuse me, the only thing I can be guilty of is the kick your ass club, but I added it in for a very simple reason and that was that there was not enough to make a decent card, the roster was little, so I needed added the that match in on a weekly basis untill there was enough people, then I got rid of it. As for the shows being crap, I tended to get quite positive feedback for my shows thanks. The storylines were there to be made bye the people who got in to feuds. If I remember correctly people complained about you in the past Nick taht you did not follow on from storylines people made in roleplays, you just made your own. I tried to get people to make their own storylines and them incorporate them in.
