Well As the day winds down and we all get our "say" in, I would like to put this out there.
I Think this is the best thing. The split, and the manner in which it happened, may have seemed a bit abrupt, and in some cases even complete suprise, but.
Look at it from this point of view. We have been to this "talking" stage before and it only seemed to make a long drawn out mess. This was quick, and its over. If we let it be that is.
Here is where both sides of this have the choice. We can:
A: Keep being mad and upset by this until we are all doing nothing but that and missiing out on the fun that we all agree is the reason we are here in the first place.
OR
B: We can let it go. Go back to having fun, and leave this subject to die quietly in a corner where it belongs.
Heh my own screwed up analogy here.
Its a choice between taking a mod dmg att(choice B) and taking a mod DoT att(choice A)
and as we all know mod DoT SUCKS

Oh, I am so sorry...
...but I can't agree with you, Lela.
I know you are not saying this, but I am hearing other folks sort of take the attitude of "what's done is done." I disagree. What's done can be undone, or modified, until it is at the place we actually want it to be.
For me, it is not there. Not by a long shot.
Other folks may say, "Well, wait a bit, let emotions cool off, let people calm down, then start talking again."
Again, sorry, nope. The work of bridge-building starts now. I appreciate that many people have relationships that have been permanently severed by this, and want them that way. I, myself, am afraid that I will indeed drift away from people I would rather have close. I make no judgements, I ask nothing from anyone. I am merely stating my own intentions.
I'm not going anywhere.
And, to continue in the vein Lela started with CoH game analogies...
Dr. Awesome said this, or something very much like it, not too long ago in mission:
"I'm just gonna run from group to group spamming Heal Other. Be so much easier if all you folks were in one big group, but that's okay, I can heal ya anyway!"

::sigh::
I posted this Sean, and yes, that is exactly what I meant. What is done is done. I will not waste anymore tie trying to salvage this broken mess. I will go on and try to make new connections, to start over where need be. But salvage ..no.
Horse to water bro. Even if you manage to get everyone to the river..you can't "make" anyone drink.
Heh...uh....yeah. Probably should have read the tag there at the bottom.
Change the "Lela's" to "Steverino's" then, in your mind.
