Then, Evanist, WAIT FOR OTHERS TO POST BEFORE YOU DO.
Again, sorry, I'm kind of in a bad mood thanks to how badly Sol tore into the app I PM'd him. His first mistake was thinking that the character in that app was going to be my main character.

Jesus, Lugia. The last time I've seen you in this mood before... well, I've never seen you in this mood before.
The point is, no one wants to go back and look through pages of ping ponging to find their own. Collabing makes it clean and easy. That way you don't have to write but don't clog up the thread either.
With how Sol seems to be constantly posting things that make me think that he hates me, and the fact that this RP made me lose most of my motivation to RP... I might just be quitting this one. I'm sure I won't be missed, and I'm sure nobody, save for maybe Evanist and Kabling will care, but I'd rather not stick around in a place where I'm being picked on by Sol every time I post. Sol, you make great RPs, and I'd like if I could join/stay in them, but you just seem to hate me for no real reason, sorry, but I will not be joining your Rps from here on out. (He hasn't said anything new, but I was reading back to his older posts in this RP that I either ignored, or didn't notice).

Ok seriously.... So you leaving Lugia?
I don't feel like it would be that fun for me neither without you here. Sol, why the hate ffs.
I am considering leaving also if that the case.... just had a bad case at that moment of positng too much and getting people annoyed at me... sorry....
I guess I kinda feel a bit unwelcomed also.
This is the first proper Pokémon RP on these forums...
Evan, just because people want you to take it easy doesn't mean you should go guilt tripping everyone and saying you're leaving because of it. That's the same as saying 'It's your fault I'm leaving'.

It was partially cause of that... but my problem is more that I kinda did fallow Lugia into this rp, and only to end up with seeing him leaving cause he is having his app bashed....
And the fact that one thing Sola said kinda did make me feel a bit unwelcomed also....
I am gonna wait a bit and see... but I am doing one last post for now. If I even decide to come back, I will take back my caracter
Edit: Oh and if you want to know why I am taking that seriously.... I been with Lugia for what... 3 years rping with him. I usually appreciate rping with him a lot, considering him a friend. So ya.... this is a way to tell you guys that if you decide to bash one of my friends, then I might just not accept that to continue.

Sola has a terrible since of humour. He's all serious then claims it's a joke. And they're terrible in the end.
Seeya alls.
...
Seriously though, I've also RPed with Lugia for around 3 years. I'd rather stick with him, because Sola seems unnecessarily hostile at times. While I didn't see this behaviour in the PM with him, I'd rather stick with my friends. If Lugia claim's are true (and they probably are, since Sola doesn't seem friendly to strangers), then I have no choice but to follow through with his actions. Simple. I won't go as far as saying I dislike Sola, but in the end I can't just pretend there's nothing going on behind the scenes. It's likely he'll argue about Lugia's actions and the fact that it's just a minor app, but if he leaves, then I'll have to leave anyway.
That, and I've got writer's block for this RP.
I would stay, but unfortunately I'm out of contacts in the RP. At least reliable ones.
FYI, a proper Pokemon RP just requires Pokemon. You should've seen a year ago how many were around.
Okay, i'm awake. I'm just going to say that Lugia's application broke the "No metagaming" rule which is part of rule 1 of any RP.
If Evanist and Kabling want to leave because 1 of Lugia's applications was denied, i'm completely fine with that, I respect everyone's choices and will not force them otherwise.
Smogon rant: (Yes, I count using the metagame from Smogon in this RP as metagaming)
Previously i said that I'd ban anyone who complained about my distaste for Smogon, but i;ll give a brief (hah, yeah right) explanation now anyways. I love that pokemon has so many unique and wonderful options and i love it even more when i see people battling with their favorite pokemon (Take pachirisu from this year's VGC, the guy had the crowd chanting "Pachirisu" before the match had started, nobody chants "Heatran".), Smogon's clauses while trying to make the meta fairer and less luck based indirectly make everyone go for new pokemon which is then followed by Smogon banning some new combination somehow, it's an endless cycle of restricting things about the pokemon games. Restricting the game's meta is not something that can be done cleanly in most cases and gamefreak know this (Why else would they give favorite pokemon even more power in the form of Megas, they can't fix the mess of a meta game so instead they stir it up.)
[Don't quote me on anything, i keep away from smogon's news and articles about battling as much as possible though i do find their pages on training pokemon useful for the most part in competitive battling and breeding within games, they usually include nice information on other moves a pokemon holds and how to provide support for almost any pokemon you want to run. It is only their clauses i do not like and only when people complain about their clauses. (Eg. One year in the VGC the winner used spore to put an entire team to sleep and people complained about this.)]

I have actually gotten what Lugia posted, and readed what was said.
You say no meta gaming, but looking at his app, a bit of modifications and it would have been fine as a minor caracter, but you reacted so violently to it...
He was actually basing it off your caracter that you did as a base start. A couple of explanations and such and some modifications could have gone and fixed all this, but what I saw was more of a "nope, total denial". He wrote down a lot of story for a sub character, and would probably have been used later on.
Sorry to say this Sola, but reading what happen and how thing were reacted, I don't really feel like he was welcomed there. Just calm talk could have fixed it. It did not help with the app of level 100 girantina when... we kinda dont have a natural base.
I probably shouldn't have posted on a Friday after the 30 minute hike home from Uni. I'll admit I was harsh there and i was just getting over a cold which was giving me a killer headache. I'll make a note not to post on Fridays anymore, it leaves me to tired and grumpy from attending my classes all week.
I've explained more of the meta gaming thing to Lugia now so hopefully things should be good. I'll admit the lineup could have been worse and if it had of been an XY lineup and then the retaliation then would have been a tad more extreme. *Cough* Protean Froakie *Cough* Agislash *Cough*
On a plus note, our first Gym battle is about to begin! This should be interesting.

Ye say this as if we're supporting bad people for the wrong reasons. We've decided on 'unwelcoming behaviour' and 'really damned overreaction' when it comes to you, and our reasons for leaving.
I don't even know what Smogon is, but by the sound of things, it would be rather... unrealistic, to say the least, to not have a Smogon-similar thing going on in the world of Pokemon. 'Cause you know, you can now have death around if you're not careful in your RP.
That out of the way, while Lugia did probably break a rule, it was only for a minor character AND an application which dwarfs in comparison to what your application is - you don't really have to give such a harsh reaction (harsh by my standards - even I found it unnecessary). By the looks of things, you could've just simply denied it and told him not to use Smogon. Yet, you decided to follow up on your previous behaviour and alienate three people through the comment for one. Just as we try NOT to cut off links with Minecraft Forums. Your friends may not mind your behaviour, but unfortunately strangers like us do. The (main) problem isn't what he did, but how you reacted. So what this youth got caught stealing? The police don't have the right to torture him. There's no right or wrong answer, but there is an ethic around.
If we're gonna leave, we're gonna do it peacefully. We're not argue, we're gonna leave. T'is a shame things broke down quickly.
...
Oh, I didn't notice that post of yers. Ah well, this still stands. It's as ironic as the depression note I wrote on my Steam profile (link on clicking the image signature of mine).

But seriously, I had explained to. lugia what I saw in the app. calling it meta gaming was not the case. it was more like need of adjustment, and it was not as if it was a caracther that her would have used all the time.
And dont go blaming it on sickness please... if you feel sick, take a couple of minutes before posting something that might be harsh and clear your mind. God knows how many times choosing your words properly can save missinformation.
And I will tell this: his secondairy would probably have been a pass here and disappear afterwards. I know it needs change, but saying that it was meta gaming is what was too much.
One of the champions (Oh no, an argument has brought forward spoilers!) is actually a major character in terms of story progression, sorry if i'm being strict here but I need to have really solid borders for this type of character. I've apologized but i can't take back the guidelines for a victory league champion.
It was Lugia's intention to play in this RP only so that he could then create a sequel which he was already working on, not because he liked my RP or anything, but wanted to piggyback off the apparent success.
I was apologizing but now i am offended.
Lugia is now banned from this RP, as much as i didn't want to have to ever say that to anyone. If Evanist and Kabling want to leave i am also okay with that because they too may have been in on the plan to piggyback of any apparent success this may have had.
Lugia is no longer allowed to post in the IC or OOC, If kabling or evanist wish to stay then make that known, otherwise do not post in the IC or OOC from this point on. I am here to RP, not start a war.
And kinda don't want to use a third party thing...
Again, sorry, I'm kind of in a bad mood thanks to how badly Sol tore into the app I PM'd him. His first mistake was thinking that the character in that app was going to be my main character.
And sorry.... here I go again with the posting without waiting. No one else was online there...
But.... I think I might stop and wait a bit now.
Jesus, Lugia. The last time I've seen you in this mood before... well, I've never seen you in this mood before.
As I said, Titanpad is really easy...
Ok seriously.... So you leaving Lugia?
I don't feel like it would be that fun for me neither without you here. Sol, why the hate ffs.
I am considering leaving also if that the case.... just had a bad case at that moment of positng too much and getting people annoyed at me... sorry....

Believe in the me who believes in the you.
You've found my secret. Have a cookie!
