While I think you're overreacting to what was just a simple idea, you do make a good point. That topic could be abused, and when I made it I didn't really think ahead to how to prevent that. Creating it was a spur of the moment decision due to a lot of angry complaining in town over such an incident, and I asked in town if I should make it beforehand. Prsm was there and didn't see any problem with it, nor did anyone else. Really, I intended it to be something the community could work with or ignore at their will. I could care less if the topic continues or gets closed.
I respect that you have your own opinions, but really, you talk about me like you know me well, when we've hardly interacted outside of the forums and a few conversations in game. Just because I happened to disagree with you and others, and voice my opinions, it does not mean I did that to defend friends of mine. I don't like to start trouble with other people because of my friends, because as far as I'm concerned, if you have a problem with someone it's your own business. When it's an issue on a public forum though, if I strongly agree or disagree with something, I'll say my opinion.
If making a topic you don't like is your reason why people shouldn't vote for me, that's silly. For one thing, I may have to be more cautious if I become a GM, but at the time I made that topic, like now, I'm just a regular player. If you truly think I would abuse the position for my friends' benefit, as I said before, you don't know me well at all. I'm quite attached to some players, that's true, but I wouldn't hesitate to ban them for breaking the rules, or be more lenient with them because of that. If they willingly want to do that with me around, they do that knowing I Will act, and if they have a problem... they should have known better. I know this isn't likely to convince you, but that's fine. But seriously, if you take anything out of what I wrote, let it be this: I've gotten involved with many heated debates on here, and some of them even got a little personal, but every one of those, I got involved because I had an opinion and disagreed with what somebody said. I have no problem with you, but I'd really appreciate it if you stop insinuating that everything I do is an emotional response to help my friends. They can take care of themselves, I just like to get my word in.
