[rant] Bree and Me

[Sheng]

I know I have been somewhat on the mean side before, but I'm trying to be nice to bree, but she just keeps biting my head off. I keep telling her I'm sorry and hope we can be friends again, but she's not going to let it drop. I've lost my mother and my aunt has been making me made lately because she wants us to move into a trailer park. I hate trailer parks!!!! Anyhow, I want to patch things up between me and bree, but she don't want to listen. If your reading this Bree (hopefully), I'm sorry and please forgive all that I've done to you.

I also want to add this to you Bree: I really hope you make it into the army. I really mean it. Your tough as galvanized steel nails and you have the guts to make it in. So, please let us be friends again if you still aren't mad at me and don't want to talk to me again. Plus, stop sending me hate messages. I'm writing this as a last effort to try to stop us fighting. Otherwise, I'll just wait until Lali or Ru'Thor kick us off permanently.

Here, everyone, I'm being nice and letting out all of my anger in this one rant. I'm taking Tai Chi and meditation to ease my stress and anger. I'm 17, and bree is about the same age. Me and her shouldn't be fighting like this, so I'm willing to cease-fire and raise the white flag of friendship. I have made mistakes and I'm trying to fix them, if you all don't mind. My anger is slowly draining away as I am learning to control more of it as each day passes.

So, please, please stop the fighting between me and Bree. I'm done with this and I want to make friends with her once more. That's the end of my rant.

[Bree]

How about this: stay off my poetry, don't butt in on my forums and don't stalk me at school, and all shall be well.

btw- I like your comment about "galvanized steel nails"

[Sheng]

Thanks, and why are you hating so much!?

[Lali]

Both of you, please take this in the spirit it's meant - I have nothing against either of you, and am trying to stay as unbiased as possible, but I'm also going to try and be honest so we can get this sorted out without having to resort to a temporary banning of anyone...



Sheng - you have a bad habit of posting to every thread you can find, whether you have a relevant comment or not, and regardless of how old the thread is. Personally, I'm all in favour of bringing threads back from the dead, but I'd prefer it if the post that did so was on topic. Otherwise it gives the impression that you're posting just for the sake of posting, and not giving any thought to what you're saying. That's why some of your replies can cause offence. Take a little more time to think before you post and you should be able to avoid that.

You also should be well aware (I think Bree's made it more than clear) that saying anything much at all on any of her threads is a dangerous move. I'd recommend taking it easy and giving her her space. There are plenty of other threads you'll cross over on.

It's good to know that you're working on controlling your anger, and I'm sorry to hear you're having a tough time in real life at the moment. If you want or need to talk about any of that, there's still space here for you.



Bree - I know you and Sheng don't get on, and I don't know what's happened in reality to make you dislike him so much, but so far as I can tell from what's happened on LoL, this time around you seem to be overreacting. You need to calm down, honey.

Can I recommend that next time Sheng starts annoying you in a thread (intentionally or not) you make the first move to defusing the situation (someone has to - I'm asking you to be the more mature one). If you feel you can let it go, then simply don't reply. If you can't do that, and you really want to vent or make your feelings on the matter known, you could try typing out your reply and then PMing it to me instead. I promise I won't let anyone else see it. (And, with me being in England, you won't have to face me in reality if you regret sending it. )

And I know you're dealing with a lot in real life as well. Like I said to Sheng, if you want to talk about any of it, we're still here and will be for quite some time if I can help it. I hope everything turns out alright in the end, and you get what you want - and that it works for you.



Is that okay with both of you? I've made recommendations rather than rules, and if this works out I'll be delighted with you both.

If anything sparks up again, I will be making rules for the two of you. For example, you won't be allowed to post on each other's threads (RP or not) and I'll ask for copies of every PM you happen to send to each other.

For now, be civil to each other should you happen to cross over in neutral threads (ugh, making this sound like a warzone now...) and please, try and be sensible in reality as well as online. No more of either of these:

stop sending me hate messages
and
don't stalk me at school.

Both of you cool down, leave each other alone, and play nice, okay?

[Bree]

I..Um.. Okay.

I will do what you ask, and I might take advantage to vent once in a while.

*Not once has anyone asked me to be the mature one.. Wo0ow. Hupmh. I kind of like it. *

[Sheng]

Ok. Sorry, I have no real life real bad habit which I shall work on controlling.

[Lali]

Thank you both. Thread closed.
