i'm never bewildered.....i'm always curious
« on: April 22, 2002, 08:36:54 PM »
the countess- "i will send a psychic message." (through the psychic friends network?)

joshua "spock" collins - " there must be a logical explaination."

bathia mapes to the rescue - "there is madness locked in a room." (THAT was an understatement)

barnabas has a choice - follow an old hag's voice or chomping down on a floozie's neck

up in the tower room when angelique was speaking through barnabas to bathia i was waiting for him to say "your mother sucks ***** in hell." (sorry about that one.....i couldn't help myself)

i wonder what mr. mapes does

I my... err... Barnabas defense... I was under the influence of two mystical forces, the first being the thirst for human blood in response to my vampiric cravings... The second being the supernatural command that was given to my already weakened conscious self by Bathia... Oh and I was following the candle light, not only her voice... *twirls cane*

As we discussed earlier this morning, role playing is discouraged on these discussion forums.  And to repeat what I said then, I'm not at all referring to manner of speaking, signature, or username.  You replied with an assurance that you would not be role playing here, so I'm including the definition of RP as contained in the forum guidelines at the bottom of this message.

Privately saying these things apparently upset you earlier, so I'm sorry if saying them on the board is again upsetting for you, but I felt the need to address the issue again because the fact remains that role playing is not allowed on these forums.

"2. The purpose of these forums is to discuss DARK SHADOWS, its characters, actors and storylines. Role playing (putting oneself or another poster into the DS story) is discouraged, and repeated efforts to role play may result in removal of these posts from the board. This does not, however, refer to DS-related usernames or signatures. These forums also do not accept fan fiction and such works are subject to removal."

I am not trying to upset you or break any of your rules. As I said, I have been talking like this for a long time in my net ventures. In all honesty I believed that you meant by role playing if i were to incurr into a pretend "script" with any other user.

I am deeply sorry, I was merely trying to contribute with a bit of "flavor" per se to your board community. I have always related to my fellow on-line Dark Shadows fans like this.

Thank you for all of your attentions. You and Benefactor were kind to me.  However, I am not a child to be told how I must communicate myself with my peers, and much less when I am respectful, and far from being a "troll".  I wish your board the best of luck, and apologize to your administration for any disruption my way of being has given you.

It's unfortunate that you feel the need to leave, and that we weren't able to work this out.  The forum's loss.  I wish you all the best as well.

If you speak as Sarah Collins, brother to Barnabas Collins, then it's role playing and I'm sorry, but no.  I've tried explaining this to you in posts, email, and have even affixed a message about it to the top of this board for several days, but I frustratingly haven't been able to reach you about it.

As I explained to BC, it doesn't apply to signature, manner of speaking, personal text, avatars, or usernames-- just your messages.  It's my sincere hope that we won't lose you because of this issue, but if you're speaking in character, then it's not allowed on this discussion forum.

******************************

 I do not understand your meaning of comparing notes, I have none to compare... I merely asked a question, upon receving an answer.  Altough I still do not understand the reason for this rule, since I am not among the powers that be in deciding how this board is mantained ...thus is not for me to understand. I do thank you for your attempt in helping me.

 Indeed Barnabas... Please do consider me a friend.   :)
I await to read your future posts within this place.

Altough I do have one small comment... Barnabas would never twirl his cane.  :D
