The Monster Multiverse

Shenlong is not majestic, is whimiscal and has a desperate craving of affection... if Shenlong doesn't get praised enough she doesn't do jack. The attitude MGE's Ryu has comes from the region she's based on MGE's universe ("Zipangu Aura" as I call it).

Attacking my example of Ryu does not detract from my point that hey, if Kenkou gets to Quetzalcoatl or Leviathan or someone like that he'll probably treat them as they ought to be treated, and that just because the Wurm was not Quetzalcoatl or Leviathan and therefore was not given the same treatment as they would is not something that ought to be objectionable.

Disliking her for her personality? Sure, I can get that. But disliking her because she's not her big sister(s)? I don't get that.

Reversing your words? You're one to talk about 'reversing words', considering you seem convinced that I have it out for you when I'm just trying to get you to simmer down and get across that Wurm isn't a terrible affront to the other creatures you mentioned like you seemed to be making it out to be!

But likewise, if you insist on being confrontational and antagonistic about it then fine, go about it as you wish -- but please refrain from treating me as though I am stupid when you yourself either do not get where I am coming from or choose to ignore it.

Guys, tone down on the arguing and leave your opinions to yourselves. If you can't agree with something, leave it be and move on.

Mythology is something that can be taken in many ways, so there's much to be interpreted.

Bolded bit is something we stated at the end of our last posts, in our own ways.

Which is something I had stated and was pretty much my point through all this nonsense.


Would appreciate it if people would read my posts and come away with what I'm actually saying for a change . . .

True, but even so, still never hurts for me to keep things in check.

Of course, here's one I got in mind. (last post I did was mainly due to limited time on lunch while typing)

Yes I understand you're trying to get your point through, but the bolded parts I highlighted is basically asking for a forced reply in a negative approach. Consider a bit more tact next time 'round.

I'm gonna make myself clear, every user is meant to be free to give its opinion as long as he/she does it in a respectful manner and without offending anyone.
And what happened here is actually quite the opposite, my opinion was labelled as wrong and illogical... to the point of trying to be"forcefully enlightened".

If that happens again I'll take legal measures into the matter.

OK, you've got a bit of a point there. But in my defense, I'd edited my previous posts up to that point to try to not be overly-negative towards him, and got nothing but negativity in return. There's only so many times I can get told I'm being stupid before I snap.

Which I was trying to do myself with my opinion regarding your own, along with trying to say that you ought to simmer down with your irate postings. That you responded with such gems as --

You've been lecturing me for "glorifying" a race by naming its most important members and... oh the irony...
You happen to choose the worst example possibe.

Tells me that I obviously attempted this with the wrong guy on the internet.

Well I'm sorry it came across to you like that; I just wasn't quite fond of how you were so vitriolically bashing the poor thing for not being those other serpents, is all. However, that you say the below --

Why the heck would you bring in a lawyer for a forum conversation?! It's not like I'm threatening your way of life or anything!

Yeesh. Voice an opinion about someone else's view on a topic, get the threat of legal action thrown back at you, what a wonderful climate we got going here . . .

That said, I'm out of this section of the forum for a while, considering what a shining reception this line of discussion has gotten from the person I had it with.

In a forum the law is the staff...for crying out loud ¬¬
Oh well... So long then, for future references better think it twice before imposing your opinions on others or I'll be sure to let the forum rules and staff fall upon you as harshly as possible.

Harshly as possible? That's not our approach. We consider conflicts on a case-by-case basis, not gloss it over with a good cop/bad cop attitude. Also refrain from using a threatening tone.

Like Baroque, even "I" initially interpreted you were going to bring him to court or something (until you defined "Taking legal measures").

=================================

Now then, I know you two have parted ways, and that's fine. But I expect nothing similar like this to repeat itself, otherwise I'll have to start locking down topics if it goes outta hand.

Okay now guys...would you kindly just drop this and leave it be. I know it would suck to leave things unfinished, but seeing as this is getting way out of hand and horribly off topic, I am kindly asking for all parties to just back away and not make any further arguments. Thank you.

Hmm... While I'm dissapointed, I don't really hate her. Who knows? She could probably show some significance in fanfics, or something. Maybe someone can make a fanfic to really make her look good.

Or, Kenkou might make a story featuring her, and she would seem awesome.

Kenkou is a magnificent artist, however his writing (His settings tend to lack consistency and it's not rare to see how he contradicts himself and creates more and more plotholes with any update he creates and every profile he writes) and researching skills (any non-Japanese folklore based MG that bares a minimum resemblance to the original myth is by pure luck) pale in comparision to his drawing skills sadly...

However I'm kind of looking forward to see what could happen if Shadowknux were to write a oneshot about her, even if her personality would remain mostly untouched I'm pretty sure that her attitude wouldn't end up being "Durr... I'll raep you nao".

Random question:

Does anyone think of train sound effects with this MG?

Not here.

Ok...I know people have been waiting for it, but I just posted the translation we commissioned via Brolen. The formatted one in the profile should be coming soon.

If she did train sound effects, I'd expect a train wreck to follow shortly there after.

You know, when you said Train and Wyrm, I suddenly had a weird flash of insight.

I remembered the Ryuu's Rape Train Button. So maybe the Wyrm is like a Ryuu whose Rape Train Button got stuck in the ON position for so long that she lost her mind.

That could make for an interesting back story.

Sofy belly as her weak point...and she loves rubbing her lover with it!

hah hah its like a dream come true for you aint it Sai?

Rezeed wrote:Random question:

Yea I do, a runaway train blasting through anything in it's way.

The Wurm is actually the dragon version of a Ushi-Oni. Witch is funny as her profile is right below the Ushi-Oni's on my computer lol.
