Ah, now look

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Ah, now look

Ah, now look what you did. I tried to be mature. But you know what, forget it.

Maple left. Congratulations, guys.

Brook hates herself. Real nice.  

Abigail pulled her AEs. Awesome going.

Mei-Xue feels like everyone's attackng her. That's amazing. 

HAB took a hiatus to get away from all this. Lovely.

People are offended, upset, angry, and all because of misunderstandings. 

"Brook is being a control freak!"

Volcano: MAYBE READ SOME OF BROOKEIRA'S LATEST COMMENTS!

"IT'S ALL [insert name]'S FAULT!!!" 

Somebody: It's no one person's fault. The only thing you can control is your attitude, and multiple people said hurtful things. Even if someone is offending you, you have to listen to what they have to say. They may not even realize they said something offensive.

So maybe get clarification before jumping to conclusions.

As for anyone reding this who wants to leave: take it from someone with experience.

Leaving is not the answer.  

Shifting: Running away from problems won't solve them. 

Only action will. 

Fruity: wbxi! 

Somebody: Thank you for your time.

Love,

I love these worspds, Somebody. I know I'm supposed to be temporarily retired from these whereabouts...but I've been reading stuff and not completely avoiding it.I really should though...

Because this is seriously stressing me out. Like...seriously.

I was thinking about leaving, I mean...I'm 14......older then most....more mature in different ways, (and definitely less in some) and this....stupid stuff is driving me insane. But I still have roleplays to partake in, and I know if I even just camp on Inkwell, eventually I'd gravitate back. And if I left...I dont think i would be able to stay away. 

Probably just me overreacting because I'm super exhausted...busy...stressed....bored....failure...depressed...you get the point.

Basically everybody is being immature and it's stupid. Not everybody is always immature...but everybody has said some stupid stuff.

There is one person in particular I do not like on the Cb. I won't mention names...but I have NO RESPECT for said being. I won't say who cuz I'm nice. :)

I don't have any different feelings for this chaos....its just all...stupid to me. Like we are immature little children who need to have everything just right or else the world will end!

Meep. Sowweee.

Thank you, Somebody, for your time. 

Youre right that we can't just run  away. We have to act. And by act, I mean JUST. STOP. PICKING. AT. PEOPLE. You think someone is being slightly annoying? Either keep it to yourself, or vice your concerns in a NICE, VEILED way. I hate this fighting, and it feels especially silly to me, because I feel like I'm one of the few not really involved in it, except to say "Hey stop fighting this isn't reasonable."

I don't feel negativity to anyone. I don't.

I don't think Brook is a control freak. Brookeira, don't feel bad about yourself. That self-dislike is coming from things only one or two people said. Don't trust it. 

I don't have a problem with my AEs or anyone's AEs. (If I voiced my opinion otherwise, sorry about that, then I'm just confirming now: I don't." 

Mei-xue, I don't hate you in the slightest. Just because you are brave enough to say what you believe and others voice different opinions doesn't mean they hate you. I don't hate you. I love when you participate in a thread I'm in, specifically a RP. You're a talented writer, and you bring in so much creativity.

HAB, I can't wait until you get back.

Maple Syrup, I will miss you.

 

But I will never leave because of any controversy. NEVER. NEVER EVER EVER EVER. And if I take a break, that will never be because people are arguing. That'll be because my schedule in the outside world is too busy. But not because I want to leave the CB.

No matter what happens, I will not leave the CB. 

Because honestly,  if you truly love the CB, then do a RP, or fandom club, or Round Robin, or SI, or Ski Lodge. Those are what the CB is all about. (And it's pretty hard to find this type of controversy there.)

I was going to make a thread about this, but then this popped up.

I am really sad. It breaks my heart to see everyone saying that they dislike each other and are going to leave. It ruins the CB. Now S.E., Maple Syrup, and HAB left, just because the CB isn't being 'nice' anymore. Brookeira pulled her AEs out of the CB, and I don't think anyone wanted that. I love you guys, and this problem is tearing my heart up. I don't blame Mei-xue for voicing her opinion, or anyone else, for that matter. Please stop leaving the CB, hurting each other's feelings, and hating yourselves, and that is all I'm going to say.

STOP, PLEASE STOP. IT REALLY HURTS ME, AND I'M ABOUT TO CRY.

*sigh

We should quit pointing fingers at each other, y'know? Quit saying what should be done, actually do it. 

Actions speak louder then words.

I'm sorry if I've offended people. If I've said anything unkind, please tell me. I'm really sorry if I've helped fuel the war. I really don't like the conflict, but I've still been part of it. I'm sorry guys.
