OOC Notes about Sundering SL

[reddrgnspirit]

I'm hoping this thread won't be deleted too, but I think that you all should know that this SL got out of hand. It was very confusing, very scattered. It was way to hard to follow. And I don't think I am the only one that got lost. It was supposed to be fun and interesting. It wasn't. It was frustrating. Now I'm not saying that it wasn't a good SL. It was. Jame's idea was fantastic. But with all the Goddesses and so on, it got to be too much. I think that there should have been a set number of Gods from the heavens and Hades.

Now, I just read Kalimar's post, and it says that Syn's dead body is laying there. Now see what I mean? I didn't even know that his shell died. There got to be so much to read and way too much to keep up with that I didn't even catch that part.

When I was bitching at Kyle yesterday, and I was, he told me that he would have to go back and read a couple of pages before posting. There's your first clue something isn't right. That it's way too confusing. I was really looking forward to this SL when it started out. I thought James getting this going was great, so he could RP again. And Kyle's and Tama's idea of the Gods was great too, but again, too much to handle.

Now maybe I am being a big baby about it, or maybe no one else wants to speak up about it, and that's fine, but I just think that back when I said I was lost, and that doesn't usually happen to me, you all should have stopped for a moment and taken a look where this thread was going.

Only now do I know that something is going on in the underworld, and still not sure what it is, because I handed Hades over to someone else. And if I had caught that Syn's "body" was laying there, I wouldn't have had Lina leave like she did. So now my post is wrong, I look stupid for having Syn's best friend just take off like nothing happened, and I still have no clue where this is going.

It was supposed to be... Four Horsemen summonded, Gods and Goddesses come down, whoop their butts, go home. It didn't happen that way. I'm still not sure where it all twisted up in the wrong direction. Kyle has tried to explain it to me, but it didn't work.

Maybe one of you could explain it so at least I understand in the end what the hell happened. That is if you have the time or even care to help me out.

I know I haven't been around lately. With my husband being off work from surgery, I have to put in extra hours at both jobs. I am exhausted. I work and sleep, that's it. That might be part of why I don't get this SL and why I got lost. I couldn't focus. And I'm sorry I haven't been around if and when you guys have needed me.

I had every intention of quitting last night, not having much time for RP anymore, but someone with a brain talked me out of it and told me that it would break too many strings and promises that I have made to people. And the person was right. I was frustrated to no end last night, though it's not much better this morning.

I just thought you all needed to know. Hopefully one of you can fill me in on what's going on at this point, now that I look like an idiot for pulling Lina the way I did. *sigh*

I will be taking a break for a bit. Putting myself officially on LOA for a while. I don't like it when others leave the kingdom hanging, so I won't do it to you guys. Solie is easy, she could just always be taking care of little Paul or be sick or something. Lina, she could be in mourning, not knowing what to do about Syn. And yes, I know she has his soul in the necklace, but she doesn't know that part of him is down below so to speak. So she can think she's failed. It works. Neither one are necessary at this point anyway, so it's not that big of deal. I really hope you guys understand that I need this time to stay afloat IRL wise. The next few weeks are going to be really hard for me, and that's not including Christmas. In advance ...Thanks.

Oh don't worry Shari, I got lost a couple of times. After Angel sang to Anduin to put him to sleep, I felt that Angel had done what she was out to do.. save her babies daddy..

So the gods were a bit confusing.... who thought that James would have the characters take on the gods?

As for other things.. like Ryu? WTF did he come from? He just made things worse and confusing. SOme of the gods got me a bit confused, but I could keep up with them.

The key for me was to read only those posts that would pretain to me, which in all was Luna, Anduin, Geae (sp too early right now), and possibly Gelina and Syn, but in truth they had their own problems.

So, to really say this, I loved the SL.. absoulely loved it! Great idea, great themes, great players (for the most part). But it had it's bugs.. just like everything else in the world. But.. that's okay! It's allowed to!

Take care Shari, I will miss you a lot! Try to get more rest and worry about the things that are going on in your own life, and don't worry about everyone else in the world. You can't make everyone happy. I can tell you that much.

Well, that was my 'words of wisdom' though.. not too sure how wise it was ^_^;

Well, I was gonna put up a thread so people could put their thoughts and opinions of the sl on it, but it seems that Shari has beaten me to it. Well, now that Ive gotten that out, ill say what I think of the storyline.

Im surprised, actually, that it had gotten as far as it has, with close to 300posts. The beginning was a little shaky, since at the time I didnt know how this was going to go on. but then, the idea for the four horsemen hit me like a ton of bricks. Even after that, it still wasnt the popular storyline that it is today. That all changed when Drako was killed by Death. Just so everyone knows, Drako-mun asked me to kill his char. Ever since then, the thread grew like weeds in a field. I must say the one thing that had surprised me the most was the coming of the Greek gods and goddesses. The day I saw the whole Mt. Olympus thread appear out of nowhere, it truly caught me off-guard.

I can see how you guys got lost from time to time, and yea, even I was left without words, unsure of what to post, cause yea, there was alot of posting going on. I even needed help from Kyle and Tasha in order to continue. So i can understand where you're coming from.
