This will probably be a long post. And no, its not going under a cut. I want you guys to read this, even if it means annoying you with a stupidly long entry. Oh, and if you don't know if this is about you, its probably not.

I see myself as a small part of this (KFM and the like) community. I'm just a 17-year-old girl who sits around in the chat room and talks to people and laughs and reads crap. I don't write fanfiction. I don't do art. I just talk to my friends and have fun.

Apparently, some of you forgot what that was like and its pissing me off.

(If you haven't caught on so far, this relates to the people in the RP... the rest of you, shove off. :) )

A large majority of you (but not everybody) have just been behaving poorly. Not to me, mind you, but to each other. THAT'S what pisses me off. You are all my friends and I love you dearly, and it just hurts so bad when you see people of your "family" fighting over something so petty.

Yes, petty.

Forgive me, but its the FUCKING INTERNET. Its a FUCKING STORY. If something doesn't go the way you wanted to, the world will not end, the seas will not boil, and all your children will not be stillborn.

You are all taking this way, way too seriously.

What's worse, getting part of your collective story messed up or losing your friends forever?

I can't just sit here and watch you all tear each other apart and act like nothing is happening. Nobody is that blind.

Perhaps this is why I've kept my distance from the RP... I just don't want to be absorbed into all this back-room shit.

I don't want to be involved with anything that could cause friendships to crumble like.. that.

In the end, I think it comes down to one big thing:

Respect

(I'd bust into Aretha Franklin, but no.)

We're all, mostly, adults here. When ten adults can't play nice together, I get sad. And yet, we can't treat each other with respect! Something we learned in kindergarten right next to sharing and not touching ourselves in public!

Its just bitching back and forth over stupid things. People yelling till they're red in the face. And nobody has asked you to stop.

I am.

Please stop.

I cannot stand watching another friendship take a nosedive over something as silly as this.

Just stop it.
