[b][u]Before reading further, something you should know:[/u][/b]
[spoiler]This is an RP thread. If you don't like that kind of thing, than I suggest you hit the back tab now.[/spoiler]
Welcome to the [DIGITAL_DOJO], a safe haven for warriors of any kind. Here, all are welcome to train for whatever purpose they may have, whether it be a war, or for personal improvement. You may bring weapons, or buy them here, as we can provide for the unarmed.
OUR POLICY:
The dojo will remain neutral to all other groups, and anyone is welcome to train. This also means we will not interfere with other battles, nor will we start one ourselves. There is one exception however, it is the sovereignty. We have declared war on them, and we will grill their corpses...
If you wish to truly join us, you must go through testing by me or by designated personnel. If not, you do not have permission to take up permanent residence.
This place is centered around fighting. This includes a multitude of different fighting techniques, ranging from bladed weaponry, ranged, magical, to even firearms. We have specialists for each, and we also carry some forms of each in stock.
Another important notice to everyone: do not add or make adjustments to the dojo without asking me first. This includes relations with other groups, buildings, particularly dangerous equipment, and new members.
NEWS:
[spoiler]
WE'VE HIT 50,000!! DON'T SHUT US DOWN NOW![/spoiler]
IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE:
[spoiler]I'm not always going to be here! If I don't respond, look for one of the Lieutenants.[/spoiler]
[b]RULES[/b]
[spoiler]
1-the dojo will remain neutral under any and every circumstance, with one exception (see rule 6). All members are required to follow this rule.
2-Any member attempting to take another members life without consent or approval from either the person in question or me will be removed. This becomes effective immediately.
3-Godmodding will grant you a removal from the dojo.
4-lieutenants will now be selected based on merit, not time spent. It is still a factor, but not the main reason for selection.
5-Remember that you cannot win every fight. Try to win if you can, but if you are put up against impossible odds, do not resort to godmodding
6-Anyone and everyone of the sovereignty is our enemy. Kill them and bring their corpses back to the dojo for grilling
7-Ookshmook383141 is not permitted to participate due to constant harassment. No one is permitted to allow him entry.
General RP rules will be discussed in the group[/spoiler]
[b]For those that don't know what this thread is about, this is an RP thread. Which means you can leave if you were here for something else.[/b]

Okay guys. So, I came back last night, and guess what? FIVE PEOPLE LEFT. So naturally, I freaked the hell out. In my entire year of being in this thread, I've never seen so many people leave in such a small time period. This really struck me as strange. So, after bathing in the blood of demons in DOOM for around ten minutes, I asked around in the group and and to the people that left. At the time of this post being typed, I've only received a response from Vio. Side note: Pretty sure Vio is pissed at me now. Anyways, I still haven't really found a solid, good reason for people leaving besides one. The complaint I saw the most was godmodding. Now, I also saw people complaining that the Lieutenants were being jerks, which I think is bullshit. I thought they were doing a good job compared to admins for other RPs, that includes me. Anyways, back to people bitching about godmodding. I will preface this with saying; there is a difference between being very powerful, and being a godmodder. Avoiding every attack, doing infinite damage, and one-shotting people is godmodding. Taking not that much damage from an attack from someone leagues below you is not. Example: [b]Timmy shoots Jimmy's tank with a 9mm pistol. The tank takes no damage. Timmy screams Jimmy is a godmodder.[/b] That's an example of completely fair play. This, [b]Timmy nukes Jimmy's tank from orbit. The tank takes no damage.[/b] is godmodding. Now that that's out of the way, onto what I think of this whole situation. I think that this is upsetting, but I feel that this doesn't exactly kill the Dojo as an RP. Not even close. All this 'The Dojo is dying' shit is just that. Shit. This place is doing pretty good, and that's coming from the guy who saw it in almost it's prime. This will be not easy to sort out, but not hard either. I also want to address the admins, or Lieutenants. Lieutenants, you're giving yourselves too much shit about this. It isn't your fault. They have no one to blame, so they blame you. You guys have been doing awesome, and will hopefully continue to do so. Happy monitoring, my friends. Okay. Now this is where I really come into my own post. I'm starting over. Simple as that. I'm wiping everything I had(Except whatever Pants has planned for a certain monkey). Literally all my characters are gone. Darion, gone. Purity, gone too. All the progress I made with Celin? No longer exists. I wish for you guys to try to wipe my collective slate with all of you. And that about does it. Type to you guys later.
