For all those involved, a large and important event has been running today since 9. At the time I'm writing this, it is about 4:30pm/am (depending on your place in the world), and just after said issue has occured.
For context, the event was a hostage exchange with Zao (Yuki-nin), in trade for the lightning blade (special weapon). This exchange was set up by the Lady of Ame, and responded to by a number of players in Yuki. The demands were to of course meet and hand over the valuables. Now here is the important factor to note: The ONLY reason Yukigakure met for the exchange? Was under the premise that Varagarv (the Jounin Commander) was present on the mission to assure it was carried out properly.
So we've put time into planning, and assuring we were ready to conduct this mission. Yukigakure expected Ame to betray them (do i really need to say any more about this) and planned this as such. The main exchange squad met with Ame, while the Jounin remained at a distance with more support. Everything looked like it was going smoothly, that is- till Ame of course did the expected. Attack! As such, the support squad moved in, and aimed to aid their nin. Of course for ooc purposes, everyone who now arrived at the fight had to wait five full rounds of rp. These five round continued till about 1pm. So before we've even entered, the event has gone on for around 3+ hours.
Upon arriving, the support team is greeted with two of their comrades being hoised in the air, an inch from death. Other members of the party are in the same boat- one of the Yuki-nin has already died at this point. With the arrive of the Jounin, he has firstly stopped one of the Ame-nin (uzumaki executing two people, followed by moving to attack another ame-nin (iron sand user. Looks like a fresh dr).
Now here is the juicy part.
No response for an extended period of time, and finally? an admin pm.
'Admin whispers you: Aight man, you cant just roll up on a fight between normal players and start boxing them.'
Now this goes back and forth for a bit, them trying to tell me 'hey you can't be apart of this' to the point they ultimately teleport me back to the village and try to omit the characters presence in the whole event. Now, I have no issues with the rules being pulled up. But I have more than enough reason to believe that the new iron sand user is of course, a member of the admin team and that again, it's just them using convenient excuses to avoid the IC consequences.
The points to focus on here:
1. This event had been going on for -hours- with much pre-planning.
2. We waited those hours, present, counting down when we were going to enter.
3. -Nothing- was said till certain people got targeted.
What this all translates to is if it was really a big issue of having a starter present? You do something about it at the -FIRST TURN- they rp entering, or even before they physically set out on the mission in the morning. Not when one of your clique members gets hit. And hey, if I'm wrong about who the player really is? Prove it. I have no problem being wrong- it's a part of life. But it doesn't detract from the crap I've been put through today.
It is utter bullshit to jump in and omit a Jounin's presence even if it isn't the cliques characters. Again, let me list the points as to why.
1. The mission, the entire EVENT wouldn't have gone ahead to begin with. This was clearly a bad idea icly, and as such the only reason that Yuki even entertained the idea, was with the presence of their Jounin in the event Ame showed up to murder Yuki-nin for the second time in this wipe. Without said character, NONE of what happened today would have occurred. But hey, it's fine to just omit the individual character and leave Yuki with a number of dead players, and the same people leaving with great logs.
2. Not a word was said till 3-4pm/am. Do you know how much of a fucking waste of time this is for someone? I've sat at my computer for the vast majority of my day, just so I can help out Yuki and play a cool event with them. But to have admins turn around and pull this shit? It's insane.
3. The point of 'Admin whispers you: Think about it this way, you're not here and sae rolls up and starts murking the genin' was brought up. Hey, that would be shit. But you know what? That was planned for. All in IC. Was there any heads up about this from the admin team to indicate I shouldn't attend? Ha, in your dreams. If all of Yuki rolls up to Ame, are the players immune from the Kage/other starters? Do they just get tp'd away and told 'hey you can't be here.'? I doubt it.
So as I've repeatedly said already- cut the bullshit. Either do it properly, or don't try to half-arsed throw the book at me when people you like get in a spot of trouble. Don't waste my fucking time, and get your shit sorted out before a damn event so I'm not wasting an entire fucking day sitting here, just to get told everything I've done doesn't count.
You want to omit my presence now? Omit the event. Revive everyone that died. Cause they wouldn't have even been there otherwise.
Regardless, I'm done being shafted. I'm not playing this character anymore. I tried to be helpful and stand by the team as the only Yuki-starter that's been here since day 1 but you can't even help me out? Y'all can suck eggs.
