We miss choo.

You're right. *sigh*
I want to RP but I have not much to work on, I'm supposed to be in the tournament but I'm waiting for Yamcha, I want to RP, I do but what can I do? I agree for a saga to be made but most people here are inactive and would get bored with it, but it would be worth trying.
Yamcha, if you read this, if you need help with the tournament I'd be more than happy to help.

:thumbup: I'm going to college next year. I'm not going to roleplay then, I just don't think it'll be a big thing to do for me, hell I don't even RP now. I used to, but now, its just old. I completly agree.

I've been so busy lately that I haven't even cared to touch my computer, but force myself to at least once a night for a bit. Part of the problem is when Billy hacked the site, the result was VJ having the CP to himself from now on. That seriously fucked us, b/c now we can't let new members join. That alone messes things up, b/c I for one feel completely powerless, though I know it was for the best of intentions. But the way it is now, VJ is the only person able to keep it going, and his connection is currently barely active, dying daily. So he can't really do much. I have to say myself, as much as I hate to, that I was here in the beginning, and I have the feeling that I'm about to be here for the end.
Part of me wants it to. Part of me grasps hold of what will never be again. The old CDBZ. Back when it was Pikkoro, FT, Pan, Videl, the old days. When sagas like Heinz and such actually finished. The days when things were fun. Now it's work to simply post. I'm burnt out on roleplaying in general. On every single rpg. I force myself to post here and on VS. On SH, I barely bother, aside from OOC. I have to go even now, to get off. I've got to start looking for another job, though myself and my bosses hate it, b/c they know that they too are going down. It was a great job, I loved it, but life's not a joke anymore, and I've got to get this fixed. I'm so messed up right now, doing everything I can.
I can't even pull a revival like the old days if I wanted to. So I'm probably going to take at least one thing over. I'm headed to Mercy-sei, to set something up. Amy is ok with it, and we'll get back to what we were doing.

I for one am definetly guilty of not roleplaying, and posting mostly in the OOC forums, but thats because I am honestly burned out on the whole roleplay thing. Its just how I am, and seeing as how I've done this type of thing before, and I've been around when a big RPG ends, it doesn't bother me that much.
It gave me something fun to do in the summer, something to just go out and write stuff. It was fun, but I'm finding less and less time for it everyday. Pretty soon it'll just be a forgotten dusty url with a few memories of summer nights spent kicking someones ass with my bad-ass mass of text. Good times.

Like I said before, its just old, I agree that it'd be nice to just call it off, and not try and drag it out any further than it should be. I figured, after the year it took the lookout fight to get written that things were really screwed, and then the site went down for a few months, and honestly I didn't care if it ever came back up. Why not give one last hurrah while people are still kicking around, and then call it quits.
I agree with ya Goku, no sense in beating a dead horse.

Well I don't know about you guys but I'm going to stick here until the very end, I'm going to try my best to RP. I'm not going to give up on this place, an RPG can't die as long as there's people out there willing to RP. The one's leaving and who left this place just grew tired of RPing, but out there is still many young new RPers just itching to find this place. All this RPG needs is some RPers and a sweep of the roster.

:drunk: I approve of it DAMNIT!!!!!!!!! :drunk:
what're YOU doing here? ?.o - Reijin - 01-27-2003
Hmm... I LIKE the idea.. Alot... Only problem is, you are using a couple of VERY inactive people as your main ones. Vejita and Rad for example. And then Koola. Maybe if you don't leave you and I can get something going. I'm already trying to work with Yamucha, so if you are able to hang around, PM me and let me know.

I'm glad to see you have so much faith, Reijin...
Anyways, I think that's a great idea Goku. I will go along with whatever the members decide they want. If this is to be the final saga of CDBZ, then so be it. I think this is set up nicely to alow things to continue if people wish to do so, but raps things up nicely for the people who just can't do it anymore.
When I started with this RPG, it was the same as probably everyone else here. I loved writing and the DBZ fad was at its peak. I liked sitting down at the comp and hashing out a spar or a fight, or whatever. However, as with kami and most of the other vets (if not all of them), I just don't care anymore. Don't get me wrong. I still care about all the work that went into this and I still care about trying to give the members whatever I can to make sure what they have here is fun and memorable, but I can not continue to force myself to RP... I just can't.
A while ago, Bardock said something that stuck with me. He was talking about the phases an RPG goes through and how the root of each phase will simply move on and be forgotten. I was one of those phases. My ability to help the members here and ty to fulfill every aspect opf my job was simply something that was going to pass. I've been trying to prove him wrong ever since. Although... I don't think I did a very good job of it. I have failed in a great many ways to the people here, and will probably not have much, if any, contact with you guys once the RPG is gone. So, in one last-ditch effort to atone for every part of me that is not the Super Moderator I try to be, I would love to be a part of whatever us remaining vets wanna leave with.
Pshh... god this sounds lame. Seriously, it's like some retarded anime speech. *sigh* anyways, that's how I feel. Just tell me what you guys want, doesn't matter to me. Hell, if you guys decided, as a whole, that you would happier if I just left and never posted here again after this, I would. (please don't quote that as a joke) It doesn't matter to me. Until then, catch y'all on the flipside.

I know you can do it Rad. I know you can.

Uhh... yeah. Check out the Other Dimensions board. My saga is going exactly as I said it would. The thing with trunks wasn't happening for obvious reasons, so I have not yet brought myself and Vegeta to earth. I was expecting something to be going on with KD and Koola, but without the Trunks fight happening I can't. It is no fault of mine that things have been delayed.
You make it sound (both here and on Area 51) like I am never around or I have not been doing anything. Well, I've been on plently as of late, especially considering the problems I have been having with my comp. (Kami and Kool can back me up on that one) A while ago, when you could not get on the comp Reijin, none of the staff went around talking about how others were not doing anything and how they were the only ones ever around. I did everything I could without saying word about not having help, or anything like that. Frankly, I am offended that you are calling me inactive. i have always been one of the most active staff members, even since before VJ was around. Nothing has changed. Without the CP, there is little I can do to help out, however.
Like I said, your latets tyraid about none of the staff ever being around and how no one is active is flat-out offensive. I have been RPing regularly in the other dimension board, as I said. No, the posts are not frequent, but I usually go back and add onto the with the edit option instead of making a new post. Those are not exactly short posts of mine, and I have to wait for times when it is convinient for Vegeta to reply.
It is very likely that you meant nothing by the truth with what you, Reijin, but I am telling you that i have honestly, and truely been offended by it. If you meant without any contempt, then so-be-it, no hard feelings. Anyways, that's all...

I know that one well
What I meant with the "I know you can" was that I know good and well you can prove me wrong with inactivity. I have merely meant that it seems that you, like myself earlier, have lost your drive. My intentions were to try to get you to prove me wrong by posting more, and you have done it. You ARE doing well, but the staff needs help in staff areas as well, such as the OOC and stuff. I know you are doing what you can, so no offense was intended. But as far as the Vejita/Rad thing goes, hurry it up lol. J/k, but it just seemed like you two were kinda posting little by little but dying out. Smack Samy! ^_^

Yeah. A bag of flaming dog shit works better than his computer.

Hahaha
I know the feeling. I've been on my gf's computer for the last two weeks. But at the moment, I'm on mine, trying to work some kinks out of it and fix it.
Side note, I'm putting SuSE Linux on my 20 Gig.
