I haven't actually seen any replies I've been left on here, due to the massive coward I seem to have suddenly become. However, there are some things I regret about my actions while there's more that I don't.

My quarrel was with (I know this will sound judgmental, but I'm hoping you'll see it as more objective) a short sighted attitude that was very evident here, no matter how proffesional you'd try to sound about it. Someone can explain all of the rules & regulations then go on to say how their own attitude corelates with that, but whichever way you look at it, you have treated this as if an author has personally gone out of his way to cause you trouble. Admins on here are blaming JC-The-Hyena for the people that have enjoyed his work. It's not his fault these people decided to cause trouble in the ways they have, nor is it the fault of Sonic.exe. What I saw was people ignoring that, instead blaming the creator because it's easier.

I myself have regrets about how I presented my argument, but in retrospect, I don't this matter would've been even thought about if I'd responded any other way. No one got a groups attention by going "Um, excuse me. I don't agree with this." It would've easily been brushed aside. But in the end, I'm not expecting to be listened to like I'm someone who's just going to fix a problem in five minutes. I'm certainly not expecting a sudden change like it's the flick of a switch.

I understand that the magnitude of this site means that you have a lot to deal with. It's not some small, quaint place where you can address every single person that contributes to it. You try anyway, and are to be commended for handling all this. But at this point, I can also see how it's easy to forget certain things, like how even though it won't be to your level of satisfaction, people do try to make something serious for this site. Even if their first attempt got some schtick, they have a right to try again. They have a right to expand on their own universe whether you like it or not. The anti-spinoff rule/appeal is a reasonable approach to stop everyone from adding to a story & making it a complete mess. But stopping the original creator from it is just going too far. It's unfair & wrong of anyone to deny somebody the chance to make additions to their own ideas.

Please just remember that if something you don't like becomes popular, it's not one persons fault. It's not the medias fault. And you are not going to make the problem go away with the kind of judgement shown here.

Now, with this, I hope that things might be taken into consideration, rather than possibly being seen as someone who's just looking for an excuse to bitch at others. Are you trying to be sorry? Because THAT'S not going to work. No, I am not trying to be sorry. I was trying to provide a more reasonable context of my argument. But if you're going to give that kind of attitude, you lead me to believe you're no more than 15 years old. If you expect me to take your words seriously, I suggest you act more like an adult. You're not worth any more words than that. Do you notice how much TROUBLE YOU caused with admins, right? ALSO i was just

expressing my OPINPON that if that was saying sorry it would not work. Simple.
