vcharon 01/14/12 2:56:00 AM #3:	Started off with a loss in hours for at least the next week to two guys who are totally incompetent. No big deal, completely typical and only a minor annoyance. Came home and realize that my site admin had decided we should "reshuffle" and "try something else" so instead of Webmaster I get to be some guy's underling who was rehired. Guy walked out, abandoned the website and community because he couldn't get his way. He has no people skills and just yells at everyone, wants to run the site alone and now I basically get to be his secretary. I got the guy the position on the site in the first place and he folded in six months; I've been part of the site for eight years and have devoted almost a decade of my life to it. The realization that eight years of my time are not equal to some goon's six months of whining and bickering really stings. Then to top it all off, my writing partner wants to change an extremely important part of the story so her character can live happily ever after with a deceased ex. This one is a long story, so that's about all the explanation I can give. The original plotline has her finding happiness in the future and with someone who shared the burden of loss with her for several years (vague description of the fiction). It's just completely horrendous that she wants to go with that path, and since she's a girl I can't tell her I profusely disagree. tl;dr: It was a pretty nice night, I think. Cast out by two of the few places I really felt like I belonged to. -- Save My contests are awful, without exception.

Not_Wylvane 01/14/12 11:49:00 AM #17:	Yeah, f* other people's opinions. Co-writing shouldn't have anything to do with compromising the ideas of both authors.

I just don't see how you're so confident that your ideas will be better than hers. You could be right, but then again so could she. That's why you should tell her why you disagree with her idea. Hopefully she'll explain why she feels her idea works with the story, and together either one of you will enlighten the other enough to change their mind, or both of you will work out a reasonable compromise that maintains the integrity of the story to both your satisfaction. -- Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the Guru for a Super Bad Contest! <cite>Not_Wylvane posted [p:664624] in Welp, wors...

Top tip Stop talking about how hated you are here. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy and only leads you to being reviled any more. Stop being so defeatist I guess. Also your problems are pretty sucky, though you'll likely look back at them in 5 or 10 years and think they were completely insignificant. -- "With Harry, it's cool.

TimJab 01/14/12 1:39:00 PM #28:	From: vcharon \| #003 Started off with a loss in hours for at least the next week to two guys who are totally incompetent. No big deal, completely typical and only a minor annoyance. Came home and realize that my site admin had decided we should "reshuffle" and "try something else" so instead of Webmaster I get to be some guy's underling who was rehired. Guy walked out, abandoned the website and community because he couldn't get his way. He has no people skills and just yells at everyone, wants to run the site alone and now I basically get to be his secretary. I got the guy the position on the site in the first place and he folded in six months; I've been part of the site for eight years and have devoted almost a decade of my life to it. The realization that eight years of my time are not equal to some goon's six months of whining and bickering really stings. Then to top it all off, my writing partner wants to change an extremely important part of the story so her character can live happily ever after with a deceased ex. This one is a long story, so that's about all the explanation I can give. The original plotline has her finding happiness in the future and with someone who shared the burden of loss with her for several years (vague description of the fiction). It's just completely horrendous that she wants to go with that path, and since she's a girl I can't tell her I profusely disagree. tl;dr: It was a pretty nice night, I think.

The realization that eight years of my time are not equal to some goon's six months of whining and bickering really stings.Then to top it all off, my writing partner wants to change an extremely important part of the story so her character can live happily ever after with a deceased ex. This one is a long story, so that's about all the explanation I can give. The original plotline has her finding happiness in the future and with someone who shared the burden of loss with her for several years (vague description of the fiction). It's just completely horrendous that she wants to go with that path, and since she's a girl I can't tell her I profusely disagree.tl;dr: It was a pretty nice night, I think. Cast out by two of the few places I really felt like I belonged to.XFD -- http://i55.tinypic.com/20t3qfm.png </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

XIII_rocks 01/14/12 3:10:00 PM #41:	ask yourself why that is the case There were plenty who didn't appreciate L-Block winning. Plenty of people who have whined about contest results. Plenty of people who have done similar things to you. Now, the board did not have a meeting and do a random draw or raffle-type thing over which user they would victimize. This is not an anti-vcharon crusade (well it may have become one at some point, but it was never originally - like I said you're so "boohoo everybody hates me" it's practically self-fulfilling). Why would you ask the board to provide evidence? The board's ability or inability to bring up solid past examples of you being a moron doesn't change the fact that the abuse is happening regardless. If this topic passes and nobody can find specific examples, nothing will change. People will still talk to you like you are something they stepped in, rightly or wrongly. So instead, think about why this is happening to you. What are you doing on your end to cause the board to "revile" you so?

I've thought about why people feel this way about me, and I cannot say why they do, beyond that many people here place their enjoyment on the misery of others. Realizing that am I a good target and will defend myself, they will prob as a way to have fun out of it. I'm fully away most people make comments towards me to invoke a rise out of me. I'm not oblivious to it. Still, I don't see where simply not acknowledging it will lead to any happy place. I'm just not sure I can picture it.
