Ok so those of you that know what that is know that I really been having problems with them as of late. So to cool my jets before I go cussing out the whole ST staff I'm going to put it up here. If you go (or have gone long enough to see what they do) and feel like they should be told this then let me know. Even if you don't have any idea and feel that it should be told to them let me know. I've about had it with them and if me telling them any of this makes them ask me to not come to there game anymore then so be it.
Ok so issue one I'm having. They have been fucking with me had about playing my new character. Between me, Travis and Justin we feel that they are giving me a hard time becuase of who I'm dating. How is that fair? Just because i date the guy doesn't mean I'm going to blindly follow is ever command. Does work like that here. Yes he does help me with the stats of the game and does help me think of character ideas but he doesn't play or make the characters. I do. All the other clans I wanted ot play you told me I couldn't because i haven't been there long enough. Was that a lie too? They even went as far as making sign a contract saying I won't turn on my clan and will do everything the NPCs tell me to do should there be a need for one. Yeah, a bit much there. They even told me that others of my clan had signed this contract. So I ask the most resent member of that clan and he tells me he did not. He also didn't get hassled about his character history. Lot of bullshit going around here.
Issue two I'm having. This e-mail was sent out today and I think is a cock of bullshit:
Hi all,
Mama Nanji has informed us that animals are not allowed at the Arts Exchange for any reason unless they are service animals (i.e., seeing-eye-dogs, etc). So, going forward, please be advised, and let your friends know, that no animals of any sort will be allowed at the Game. This means no mammals, reptiles, amphibians, avians, or fish. If someone brings an animal that is not required for assistance, that person will be asked to take the animal home immediately.
Thank you for your understanding.
Jen and the other STs.
One, they use Jen again so that people wouldn't yell at the rest of them. God bless Jen for dealing with there bullshit and taking one for the team. Besides that this e-mail should of been sent out.... I dunno like 6months to 2 years ago. The only reason this was a issue now was because Steven who lives a good ways from me brought me my kittens that night and someone didn't like that. We sent out an e-mail informing everyone that went that this kittens would be coming and if there was a problem to let us know. The STs failed to give us the e-mail up there and anyone that had allergens failed to e-mail us about it. So due to the lack of communication that the STs have shown before after the big uproar from one of the members the kittens were force to sit in Steven's car until end of game. This is not cool with me. There has been cats, dogs, and even bireds at this game. They even went as far as making the bird part of a game they were having that night. WTF? I'm sure if Travis went and spoke to Mama Nanji about what happend she'd understand seeing she likes Travis more then the fuckin' STs anyway. Its bullshit and it was dealt with the wrong way.
My final issue this AIT is the favoritism. Seeing this game is run by guys if you have boobs you have a better chance of getting shit done then the other guys that play. This is true in almost everything. But giving someone a hard time because they aren't part of your favorites is bull. The game should be equal treatment to all players. Why is it that other LARPs can seem to get this but AIT cannot? It pisses me off and really makes me not want to go. They also clam to want to help new players anyway possible. Thats bull too. The only person I EVER saw caring about the new players was Travis and he's not even an ST. They don't want him as an ST because everything they worked so hard for would be a battle every night with Travis trying to help the little people at this game. Just really bothers me that they do this and even though I have boobs going with issue one I get treated unfairly becuase of who I'm dating. ITs Bullshit!
Now that thats out of the way I hope you have a great week and I hope to see some of you guys at Momocon later this month.
much love,
