I really hate to think that something over the
internet has put a strain on our friendship, I like to
think that there’s been more to it than that. And as
much as I’d like to talk about this, I was hoping
everything would have been addressed and settled when
you called me; that’s why I kept asking if there was
anything else bothering you but I could tell you were
clamming up. I wanted to talk, but I could tell you
didn’t, which confused me because I thought the whole
point of your calling me was to get everything out in
the open and settled.

To stress once more, taking your admin powers away
wasn’t a punishment, it seemed like the logical thing
to do since 1. it didn’t seem to me that you really
cared about the place anymore, and 2. it was something
I was planning to do anyway considering that yes, the
board is mine considering I’m the one who created it.
I know you didn’t abuse your power when you had it, I
never said you did. And if for some odd reason some
idiot from kb shows their face on the board, they’ll
be dealt with. Other than that, I can’t see anything
or anyone being a threat to you on KW. Yes, Ethan
probably was Nova, and he’s been banned. And if he
shows up again he’ll just be banned again. If he
still persists, I’ll have EZ board ban his ip.

I honestly don’t mind the people on the board being
there if they play nice with one another. Yes you did
email Kitora, but Gojitom and Adcock also received
emails from me, as well as quite a few others that
appeared when the place first went up. I didn’t
bother spamming other boards because I really didn’t
think there was anyone around I’d want to rpg with. A
couple of people followed me through my visited links,
but they soon vanished.
And yes, I DID use pics from your site, but at the same
time I could grabbed pics of monsters from my own
collection or anywhere else on the web. That I did as
per your request along with making you and admin.
Now, you said you didn’t want to take the place over,
but at the same time it seems blatantly obvious that
everyone thinks the board is yours, just yours, and
I’ve grown sick of it, just as I’ve grown sick of
almost everything I’ve done that’s Godzilla related
being assumed to be yours. It’s the same round and
round argument because yes, I know yuou don’t MEAN for
it to happen but that doesn’t negate the fact that it
DOES. Look at it from my perspective, do you want to
spent a lot of time and effort working on something
only to have people assume someone else did it and
completely pass you over? I’m not sure if you can
really understand how much that ticks me off, because
I don’t think anyone’s taken a body of your work and
told all their friends it was done by somebody else,
then heaps praise upon praise upon that person for
doing it. That’s been what I’ve been going through
ever since I wrote Godzilla vs Trajan Des, and like I
said before, I’m just tired of it. In the last couple
of months I’ve become very possessive of things I’ve
created and taking full control of those things,
whether it be a story, drawing or board. In the end
there’s really no way to be nice about it, and again,
I know I must seem like quite the jerk for doing what
I’ve done, but I’m not sorry I’ve done it, nor will I
change things back.

Since the Gen 2 thing is done and overwith, I really
don’t care anymore, it’s done.

As not to end things on a bad note either, I have to
congratulate you again on getting the job at the zoo,
that’s really awesome.
Yeah, I imagine it’ll be a serious pain in the tail to
get up early and be there at 6:30, but I guess after
awhile you get used to it. I never thought I’d be
able to survive last semester when I had to get up at
5:30, walk to the train station and be at the school
by 7:30. Blah, super long days, but at least you’ll
be getting paid for your troubles, hehe… Hmm, what
kind of work are they going to have you doing?
