As most of you already know, I'm the writer of "Roleplaying is ridiculous".
I often write rants right after something has happened, and it's usually late at night. I post my blogs and look at the reactions in the morning.
Annoyed me + Late night = Blog with horrible outcome.
Here's a few clarifications:
-The article was writen by me, after a member whos name will be unsaid, continued to pester me to roleplay, off and on, for nearly three months.
The article simply was suggesting that roleplaying in chatrooms seemed to have very little purpose, and that they often resulted in cybering (ones I'd seen). No one paid attention to the part that said just chatrooms.
I'm fine with role playing in real life, and I often cosplay as various characters. I'm not trying to be hypocritical however, as I consider chatroom roleplay and real life roleplay to be two seperate things.
I did not mean for this to get blown out of proportion and I'm not writing this to "be a suck up". I'm writing a sincere apology, and explanation for my words.
Onto the apology:
To members of DSiPaint who participate in roleplaying in chatrooms, I sincerely apologize for writing a blog that offended so many of you.
I was too vaugue and general, and that resulted in a major upset that caused a huge comotion, and the creation of four new chatrooms for roleplaying.
I hope to re-establish my reputation as a blogger, and continue to write and rant, but without offending people in the process.
-Tycoon Master
Side Note: As I stated above, this is a sincere apology for creating a major upset on the site. I did not intend for that to happen (lol most disliked blog ever XD).
Anyway, this shouldn't happen again, by my own acord.
I understand, bro. I overreacted and caused this mess, really. Sure, you'd still have a very disliked blog, but nevertheless, I should be the one to apologize.
Tycoon, I somehow believe that if you created an Alt, and did all your rants there, you wouldn't be Trolled as badly. Hell, it's because we[collective 'we'] associate your name with a Rant that's sure to annoy us, and at least 60% of the SDK community.
you guys r such loser give the guy some slack he found his error and he apoligized (btw i do give you credit for standing up and apoligizing ) its sometimes hard but dont worry most of us belevie u and thats all you need dont give attention to ppl that want attention (ex. waffle king)
from me you have a
+1
ok enjoy your day bye
(hope you feel better)
You defeat the purpose of ranting if you're just going to make an apology afterwards. If you plan on making an apology for offending people, then don't rant in the first place. Making an apology essentially contradicts yourself and shows that you don't have enough backbone to handle criticism. Over the internet, no less.
I'm not one to apologize for a rant, but I just felt this one went a litle far.
Waffle, you say that on every single one of my rants, so what else is new?
Zoey and Admiral, thank you for understanding what I was saying.
And finally, I made the "most disliked blog on dsipaint" as my sig for a joke. I actually find it hilarious how badly that blog did, so I decided to make that my sig.
Well, meh. If you're going to rant about something, be Proud of it! It's like Democrats apologizing to the Republicans for their different views! I'm not insulting/trolling you, but just giving you advice.
actually, i don't mean to sound weird, but i am kinda glad that you wrote that blog because it caused the new chatrooms. Theres usually nowhere to rp anyway, so the new rooms are great
Guys, nobody's perfect, get over it. He is not an "attention seeker," some people acctualy got really offended by his blog. Unlike some of you guys, Tycoon has the guts to actually say sorry. And calling his blogs "stupid and dumb," and telling him to "Shutup" is totally not cool. If you have nothing nice to say, then don't say it at all. A lot of you guys are taking this really in an immature way.
He's milking attention. First off, you don't apologize after a rant. Second, he made multiple polls about his stupid blog. Third, he brags everywhere about his "most disliked blog ever." He's milking attention.
I don't think we needed this. I agree with Waffle. We read your'e blog, and only some people understood your point. You really don't need the extra attention for an apology.
tycoon, i stand corrected. waffle king does seem to pester you on many of your blogs. dont get me wrong! he does do great blogs but, THIS IS DOWNRIGHT REDICULOUS.
