My good friend Shinju was recruiting for fighters in the FFA the other day when he stumbled upon a seeming well known man named Dyne Tazon. I have known about Dyne and his act for some time, however I was presented with startling evidence today that this man is much much less then any of us (With the exception of those who thought he was already pretty low) suspected. I must be frank, even I had thought this man was somewhat of a prodigy.
I stand corrected. These quotes are completely unaltered (with the exception of one of the latter ones, in which Shinju asked me to touch up his spelling) and here for you, my faithful readers to judge on your own:
(Soon after their meeting in the FFA Shinju, at my command, extends the an offer to Dyne to work for yours truly. Dyne makes the respectable call to have a trial by combat, if Shinju beat him he would join up. After the second post Dyne had "crushed Shinju's hand with gravity". Shinju got pissed. What followed was one of the most enlightening conversations this man has seen in quite some time)
Kakita Shinju Dyne Tazon Kakita Shinju Dyne Tazon Kakita Shinju I've noticed, how savage of you. Teeeheee, I could have done it much easier, an melee wise like a good little boy, but 'er I just had sex, and felt the need to do something slightly cruel. 4laugh I've had Dyne Tazon, or rather this Tazon, for over five years. You can go look through my post history, ask some of my friends, they will answer similar. Dyne was originally, Hatoki....Then he was transcended into Orannis, and now currently Dyne, but he was always a Tazon, he even has a family now, I only rp Dyne though. And this Tazon, believe it or not, started off as a boy, with a stick/cane. So you can only imagine how much Dyne has EARNED. wink You've taken the most insignificant part of my argument and capitalized on it. Congratulations. You want the "Earned s**t" award? It's yours.
Now explain why your character is somehow allowed to wield godlike powers and control forces who's mere existence outside of the normal spectrum of their existence could rock the stability of the known universe?
I look over your abilities and realize that there are other beings that can control such forces: stars and giant astrological bodies that take hundreds of millions of years to produce what you flagrantly throw out on a daily basis. That would be parallel to me blowing you up with a flick of my wrist by harnessing your own internal fluids.
Fair?
You bet your a** it isn't .
Kakita Shinju Dyne Tazon Im not Kiyoshi right now, and be fair? I have been fair, I could have done some cheezy little move and end you WITHOUT even using the kinesis. People like you RUIN rping, you must b***h and whine about the littlest of things, get over it, the attack is not at all that hard to counter, use your brain. Tsk, I thought you came to challenge me, not bore me. If you wanted me to fight only melee, then you should have stated that. As for how my character does such, this is what I meant by EARNING, he is a from a race I created 5 years ago one day, out of boredom, and I have built upon this. I'll tell you more after our little show, considering if I told you, it would be Cleoing, now entertain me and quit being a cheap a**. whee I ruin RPing? Quite the contrary, I yearn to make it fair.
Roleplaying is not about winning, it is about acting. This is my greatest grudge with people like you. You savor the taste of victory so much that you create characters that can achieve it no matter what; you call this gradual fall from grace "progress" when all you are doing is hiding your insecurities behind powerful techniques. This is one of gaia's fatal flaws, when the battle system comes out every man will have to EARN his power, not simply create it for himself. However the battle system is not out, and people still need words and ideas. Your ideas, faithfully copied directly from wikipedia, are mildly inventive I can only conclude that they are perversions of true strength, which stems from the adaptable mind, not the concrete "power" you possess. Therefore I have to conclude that you, Dyne Tazon, are a fraud, tricking all of your lessers into believing you are a superior RPer when in actuality you are only a mediocre RPer that had the idea to make your character inconceivably powerful. I find myself having no respect for this, and consequentially I will do this in honor for your seemingly undeserved reputation:
I will ask you humbly to stop all of this foolishness now, and go back to what you once were. You told me that you had to "earn" this power, which no being can truly earn, and that would connotate that at one time you had a legitimate character that got by on intelligence rather then the abuse of power. I implore you to return to this state and re-think your character. Until then you can consider our battle on hold. I do not fight cheaters.
Dyne Tazon I didn't read a word of that, now post or vanish.
Well, first of all I would like to thank Shinju for giving me this conversation. You're doing the FFA and all of gaia a great service. I would also like to show this before we move on to the actual rant:
Dyne Tazon OOC: The kid, couldn't understand, so he beeched, as per usual. So the entire "fight" is nixxed. In the future, if you WANT me to fight Melee/Magic/Kinesis/Planar, please TELL me before hand, I do not ******** read minds, so I assume you are prepared to take what is dealt. Don't b***h at me when you can't handle it.
Dyne yawned.
Mr. Tanzon, from the staff of The Big V's review:
Go Blow Yourself.
How dare you insult Shinju after he royally splattered s**t all over your face in those PM's? You deserve this rant against you and so much more.
By looking at this post we see that this dumbass neither understood nor even tried to comprehend the intelligent words that Shinju had said. In fact right about from the first word on there we can see Mr. Tanzon stroking his enormous ego, and ego which I am happy to say is generally undeserved.
For the most part, this conversation speaks for itself, but for the slow among us I'll dumb down Shinju's excellent vocabulary to explain what he's saying:
Gaia, folks, isn't about fighting. Roleplaying isn't just about fighting either. Roleplaying is the simulation of real life with sometimes slight alterations, like different races or abilities. However one thing that most people enjoy about the world of roleplaying is that it is completely fair. Everyone gets a chance to be who they want and act as they see fit. If you want to be a bad a** biker in character to hide from your real life issues about being a oppressed schoolgirl, that's great. If you want to be an innocent schoolgirl to feel the nostalgia of the time before you lost your virginity to scumbag Joe from the projects, nostalgia away. We don't mind as everyone has the right to roleplay as they see fit.
But Dyne doesn't see it that way.
In his world there seems to be a hierarchy, and his hierarchy does not allow for this freedom of choice and this fair equality that is the basis of good roleplaying. For as Shunju says- "Roleplaying is not about winning, it is about acting.", and he is 100% correct. However in Dyne's world he would only allow fighters like himself, those who possess abilities far beyond the scope of a mere mortal to control, to be allowed the freedom to do whatever they wish. Everyone either is crushed under his infinite power or bows to him.
Shinju plays a samurai who uses a few magics and a nice strong sword arm to whip a** all over. Let me tell you from experience, he's very good at what he does. However he saw his hand crushed in a flash by Dyne's "ultimate" powers and saw the injustice that I am explaining:
No man has the right to control all; it defies the logical fairness that holds the entire RP world together. It does not have room for the School girl turned biker, it does not accommodate the person who's dream it was to be a man with fox ears, it will not allow for a simple man who uses a sword like a fiery demon but cannot hope and does not try to tamper with powers that oppress and hurt the system of roleplaying we have today. Dyne Tazon is a symbol of all I hate in RPing today. He shows us all that if people use powers that are not meant for them they rise to a false power, everyone too afraid of them to speak up, and no one who can defeat the insane powers people like Dyne wield without molding themselves to be like Dyne and damning themselves to terrible roleplaying.

P.S.- I ******** hate frauds.
Dedicated to Victor Kalliandrios.
EDIT (Dated December 31st 2009): Dyne is now an excellent and fair member of the roleplaying community. He has abandoned this old school FFA bulljive and become the quality player we all thought he was.I hereby rescind my previous statements.
