Well to be fair while I respect what Valaun has to say I can't help but wonder if part of her anger is because she's upset because Madelaine's upset - don't know i could be wrong though.
Basically Valaun had a habit of barking at both myself and Madelaine when we were DM'ing in our various FG game sessions and I asked her to refrain from doing so , she apologized and stopped doing it promptly afterwards and I was under the impression that was the end of it ... I wasn't aware Valaun felt she was being railroaded .. I am a bit confused in that she made several comments about how much fun she was having playing a kender to me via private whispers on FG (basically that's why I'm wondering if she's upset because Madelaine's upset? Again no idea ) ... as far as forwarding private e-mails to Valaun re: Madelaine.. basically I just copied and pasted my post re: why we'd probably lose Valaun since I knew she wasn't checking the forum and cc'ed her on it ... the posts on the forum are pretty much public for all the players to see (looks confused)... and Madelaine's made her e-mail address publicly available to all the Drow campaign players (blahness98 she was running the Drow campaign for us ) so I'm a bit confused why Valaun said this was a bad thing to do as well ...
I'd apologize to Valaun but she said not to e-mail her again so (shrugs helplessly)...
On the plus side.. I only put up the post looking for new players today (on FG) and I already have one interested recruit ...
Guys basically here's a history of the players who have come and gone since July last year when the group first started
- darkalloy is a founding member who's been with us since the beginning
- mikker0 (founding member) gave me a shout-out for being a great DM here on the forum but was forced to leave - he posted something on the forum about real life personal issues forcing him into not having time to game (he went into more detail than that but ... )
- rogueserpent (founding member) dropped out due to having too much work going on in real life
-malkav565 (founding member) got upset when Madelaine tore into him " in character" ... emotional melodrama type stuff ... basically Madelaine took what malkav's character had to say VERY personally.. damn shame, I really enjoyed having malkav565 around .. gamed with him for a long time in real life so when he told me I was a great FG DM I believed him
- nydhog (founding member) is sort of on "guest star" status - basically he's become SUPER busy in real life (work) to the point where he can't participate as much as he'd like to anymore .. but he did mention I was an awesome DM, thanks for that nydhog
- casdegere came, got mad when I called him on his control issues and left (weird thing is Madelaline posted a thread here too complaining about casdegere's control issues earlier on too in her Drow campaign)... Flak , who joined some time before casdegere, resigned in protest over this.
- Madelaine joined us then Valaun... Madalaine left, Valaun left as well - as valaun states herself she joined only because Madelaine did.
The point I'm trying to make her is players come and go there's no avoiding it- it doesn't necessarily mean the campaign is over (so stop worrying darkalloy ).. we have 3 players left, a 4th potential recruit off FG after just one day of the post being up.. we will get through this.
