Join my fruit guild
« on: April 27, 2004, 06:49:43 pm »
Help me out here, I am trying to understand what the point of all this is. This is supposed to be making a point right? I?m afraid it?s totally lost on me.
Okay the guild forum is to undergo some heavy moderation, fine I?m willing to give that a try (most of my posts don\'t seem to last very long anyway these days), but then why are these threads still here? Is the point that it?s supposed to show we are supposed to be having fun without the nastiness and that?s okay, or does it simply show that as long as ?certain people? like you and find you funny, you can get away with whatever you like?

?Lighten up Kada!?  

Yeah I know, but to me it just makes a mockery of this project and other people?s guild threads and is worse than some of the threads that have been deleted from here. Things I don\'t like to see and make me start to wonder if I shouldn\'t be spending any more time here.

EDIT: Oh, the threads have gone - I\'ll just shut my mouth :P

*still confused* :rolleyes:

uhh.... wat do you mean, lady Kada-El?
The point was to get everyone some fun, as \'twas stated few times...
and actually Aelya was serious about Lemons guild.... seems some people are racist against fruits and don\'t allow guilds like that here ;(

Don\'t mind me, just jealous I didn\'t get in on the \'fun\' and was in not allowed into a fruit based guild :( - a case of sour grapes you might say hehe :P ;)

*runs off to start the sour grapes guild*

The lemons guild was going to be a subproject and slightly lighter guild run by the alter egos of DE.

However people didnt take us all that seriously - several alike guilds were started - there was a funny anti-lemon thing started.
We may still be doing the lemon thing though although after this somewhat humourous outburst we may wait a while =)

Actually I was (and still am) serious about making the Lemon Empire with my alt (Princess Lemons). So fear not LE members, we are not disbanding!

Embarrassed? Hardly. I had tons of fun doing it and I\'m sure the orange king did as well :P

no Altharion, Aelya did not embarrass herself. She brought fun for lots of people, especially after the tense that was around. Some actually thanked (or should thank) her for the fun.
And I talked with her over icq, she was serious about it if you believe it or not.
Also what did you understand by \"this is serious\" and that she wants to make a website?

I thought you were maybe trying to make some kind of serious point in a \'humorous\' way, about forum moderation, state of the community, or something that just got lost on me :rolleyes:

Part of the reason I started the whole fruit guild trend was to bring some fun and crazziness to the forum.Not to meantion to bring it back from flame hell.

Yes kada your exactly right. I was indeed. But at the same time I enjoyed it and decided to make it serious (yet somehow still humorous)

And yes. LE still needs a web-designer :D Anyone who can make one can PM Princess Lemons

Its a game, people come here for entertainment. it is supposed to be entertaining. In my mind the point of the fruit guilds was - as community we can have fun we dont need to be serious and constantly at each others throats. I guess you missed the point kada.

But fine, lets go back to the serious competitiveness. And if \'things\' you \'dont like to see\' make you want to leave, maybe we should all conform to your opinion of how we should act? Posts like this make me want to lrave, this community is two serious, too prideful, too arrogant  and too competitive.

I apologize to both of you, but this kind of \"lets all flame people who have fun\" thread wind me up intensely. And yes my spelling was less then perfect.

That\'s extremely gracious of you Zeph, thank you :)

I\'m so pleased that we can actually work these things out sometimes without needing to be constantly deleted :)

I am apologising for upsetting you/flaming you, doesn?t mean my opinions have changed :P. I guess to be honest I was kind of upset to see the fruit threads go, I found them fun. This thread kind of got the brunt of my annoyance as I felt like you were insulting my sense of humour.

Edit: or even worse than insulting my sense of humour, accusing me of mocking Planeshift, a game and community I truly care about.

Talking about lemons makes as much sense as any flaming. However it is fun and not depressing/oppressing and fruits are healthy and tasty :D.

This also shows that mods care about flame wars as much as fruit wars XD.

Stupid and immature? Geez why do you people get like that? What about being all touchy because people were talking about lemons?

:P So where are we gonna discuss about lemons now? :P

I agree it is all in good fun and gets our minds off the other garbage being brought up in the forums :D LEMONS RULE!!

EDIT: Plus I am kind of disappointed that they deleted the previos lemon threads and orange threads and cherry threads because I lost quite a bit of posts :P
