Before The Introductions
« on: September 28, 2016, 01:22:56 PM »
Salutations!

I was looking around for rp places and stumbled upon this place.
Before I get too invested though, I need to ask.

Is this site affiliated with the RWBY fanon wiki? Because I don't agree with their ways of handling things, I'd rather avoid going through the same bickering again if it is.

"ALL HAIL OUR MIGHTY LORD AND SAVIOR! BRINGING OF PAIN AND DELIGHT! ALL HAIL VOX MACHINAE!"

A whole coven of scribes repeats this mantra over and over again, the leader especially loud.

"PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! FOR HE IS JUDGE, JURY, AND EXECUTIONER! JUDGE, JURY, EXECUTIONER!"

NATENDO YOU HAVE TO PRAISE THE ALMIGHTY VOX MACHINAE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'm glad you guys are giving our new member(s) such a great impression of not only Vox but the staff as a whole. Keep it up. See what happens. Because let's look at it this way. If a staff member or another member said some shit like this about one of you, I'm sure you'd be reasonably pissed off. So think before you act next time.

Actually, Vox (and literally everyone else) is nice.

As long as you respect the rules.

Ignore the passive-aggressive cunts. The fact that they aren't banned (yet) for constant annoying sniping should be evidence enough the tyranny of the webmaster is just a running gag for everyone but the retards.

And speaking of retards, you'll find a lot less arbitrary shit than the Wiki, but there is the occasional crackdown on immensely stupid shit. (Hi nathan.) Usually that ends up being my job. But most of the staff is nicer about it than me, and I take a rather hands-off approach. (I keep the board working and provide the occasional plot oh-shit moment.)

Welcome to the board. I'll give Calfuray a +1 later if I don't see any of the mods do it.

There's also going to be a no-approval, "whatever random character you want" open RP board on main eventually, but I'm prioritizing fixing some bugs on RPG if you want really open stuff.

Oh, sorry, I really didn't mean to be so rude...

But really, the staff members are all pretty nice, and the tyranny of Vox is just a running gag. Don't worry, your characters are in good hands.

Yeah if that came off as anything but facetious it wasn't intended to. Welcome aboard, I'm the Unofficial Forum Dad. You'll undoubtedly see me around. I apologize in advance for my hackneyed, cliched, disgusting characters, but you'll get used to them just like people get used to toenail fungus.
