Hello everyone. You haven't seen me around the hotel lately cause I am in the basement. I was basemented for calling valet Kaeli a "puppet" amongst other things and wearing a url that said "kaeli, Please kill yourself" Now when I was basemented my first reaction was,"hey Im out fo here" My girlfriend likes this place so I decided to make an effort to keep my account. So I would like to hereby apologize to anyone in the community that I have ever offended.
I have been a hotel resident for over a year. I would like to thank everyone who has defended me and helped me as I have tried to pound my head against the mentality of the hotel over this time. It has been a constant battle and I would like to thank everyone. Special thanks to Rowaena, for her article that was in defense of myself, Yanks and Biteme. I know she wasnt defending our actions entirely but she made very valid points. And also Rowaena has been very fair to me when she was the publisher of the Soup'.
I have been told that this place isn't my personal stomping grounds, and that this is a business and we have no rights. Business? thats funny, I thought this was a virtual chat community. If FSBA wants a business then that is what they are getting. This was a much better place before it was a business, and was just a chat community where people were encouraged and allowed to express opinions and beliefs. I know what you are saying. "You can still express opinions and beliefs just without swearing and being offesnive" That may be true but every since the valets have been added there has been less discussion about anything relevant. As Rowaen has stated, this place has turned into a bingo hall, prize draw, and constant obsession with items. It just seems to be difficult to have a good debate here when we are limited on what we say, and "someone" is always getting offended. And its usually someone who is not even involved in the conversation that gets offended. I have been part of a few situations where myself and a room full of others have been having a conversation, and having a great time. And some ghost complained and a valet comes down. Now, in these situations, there were No arguments or disruptions, until AFTER the valet got there. I think claudette and the valets need to stress the Ignore feature. When people page a valet and complain that so and so said whatever and it offended me, the valet should say"Use the Ignore feature"
I do like this place, which is hard to see sometimes. I have been here a long time and I have somewhat of a sentimental feeling about this place. I hope that we can all work together and turn this place around and get it back on the right track. Again, I would like to apologize to anyone I have ever offended. And am advising anyone to please use the ignore feature instead of pageing a valet, not just with me, with anyone.
Rock Steady
