Cades are down, but I can't open doors.

Hello guys, interested observer and party to this whole unsavoury text-rape incident.

I felt compelled to create an account and throw my two cents-worth in, not in an attempt to antagonise or stir things up, just to present an opinion. I'm not friends with JS, I am a UD veteran and I'm not a troll so please don't take it the wrong way. I'm also not here to jump on the soap box and largely, my opinion can be dismissed by the regulars on here if you so wish.

I think you have dealt with the issue in an extremely sensible way and you have done well to keep things pretty emotion-free, diplomatic and straightforward in your decision making process. Hats off to JB, Manchu and the rest of you for that. With that in mind, I decided to say the things that you guys are too polite, or too diplomatic to say.

What concerns me is the perpetrator of the text rape. He is young enough so that he has to share computer privileges with his little brother, yet happy enough to produce a frankly graphic text rape and then pass it off as some sort of "black mood" brainfart after throwing it out so lazily onto the forum that no-one even picked it up. I wonder what the mother who controls internet time at his house would think of her son coming up with that sort of creative writing. Not only that, but when called upon it by members of The Nurglings (the group whose name he was befouling by committing the ultimate UD no-no whilst carrying their tags), he acts like HE is the one being wronged. Some flowery "this is how I role-play" bs is not an excuse. Secondly, "I would never dream of raping someone" doesn't hold much water when you see the words that this character used in the game. You've not only dreamt it, you've thought about it, put it into words and decided to use the most provocative language to bring it to life (horrible term I know, but it's a horrible thing). Thirdly, "is it that important?". Imagine you've been the victim of sexual abuse, you play UD and you come up against something like that. Sound far fetched? Well, it's not. At all actually. Fourthly, stop feeling sorry for yourself ("blight this thread with my taint"). This is on you and only you. How about apologising and not attempting to defend the indefensible? Especially when JB has given you countless opportunities to admit you've messed up and instead of saying "hands up, I was out of order", you've blamed every other possible thing you could have done.

Finally, it's pretty weak to complain about the rules not being advertised. Text rape is against the grain in any scenario whatever you're doing, it shouldn't need to be highlighted to all players. If you take role-playing so seriously that you think this is acceptable, you probably need to re-consider your priorities in life.

The rest of you, keep up the good work. Great group, fun to play against and not at all tainted by this. Hats off.

Im sorry people. I thought I was gone but alas, this person seems to wish my return.

1) Yes, I do share my computer with my brother. Note this: MY computer. NOT my privileges. Its my machine. My little brother only has an old one that is incapable of accessing the internet.
2) As it was due to personal issues, and could have also influenced the vote in my favour, rather than keeping it neutral, so I did not post it on the forum. I still wont.
3) And yet again I will point out that I had not read the rules. Hence I did not know that TRing was taboo.
4) However, as I said before, I did not regard this as an excuse for my actions
5) As for the creativety? Well I actually cannot claim origionality. It was from a piece of erotica that a friend had.
6) How did I act like I was the one being wronged? Please provide evidence.
7) The roleplay bit? Really? I was merely pointing out that my zed is a rogue esque character, a former criminal
8) Once again: Roleplaying does not = RL. And I refer to above for the text. Hell I don't even remember what I put, only where I got it from.
9) If I continually censor everything I say for fear I shall offend those around me then I shall be forever silent. Or as good as.
10) That was said in a form of jest, not because I was feeling sorry form myself, and also as I realised how grave my actions had been. I am, or rather was, the blight on this thread and in the horde. I am no longer.
11) Actually that's a good point. I havnt apologised. A formal apology shall be issued after this.
12) But I did not attempt to defend myself. I was asked to give reasons and I did. If you actually read the thread rather than trying to stoke your impotent internet rage against me then you would have seen the requests.
13) I believe that I did admit I was out of order. A few posts back.
14) Finally I requested that any anger such as this come at me via PM, rather than being posted here on this thread. You could have posted a quick morale booster, or a little snippet about how well they dealt with it and directed the brunt at me. But no, you have decided to post it here. The rest of the horde is trying to bury this. Let them do this. If you have any further grevances against me then please PM me. Don't turn this thread into a flame war.

Finally, as the one accurate statement that Observer made: I have failed to issue an apology. I shall remedy that now.

I hereby apologise for my actions that I undertook on UD, and for the blackmark that I left on the hordes reputation. I acknowledge and accept that I was out of line and I am deeply ashamed with myself. As I have said before, there is no excuse for what I did. I performed a heinous action that has resulted in a fair and just punishment for me. I only hope that one day I will be forgiven. Until then I will shamble off. Goodbye and GoodLuck my friends.

**purplefood**

Seems fair.
I suggest we all move on.
Any outsiders reading this (JS and Observer) if you want to raise a point, PM someone.

JB

Looks like the Knights Templar wanted their building back.

Today it is my turn to swing a lot without hitting. I went 1 for 36 versus the barricades.

Also, I am now "It" so you can expect me to tag someone once I have more AP (including enough to run away).

**Eldercaveman**

7 hits in 40 and Julie is down to QSB

**Platuan4th**

Some dick combat-revivified me.

**AgeOfEgos**

Hospital down to loosely

**Platuan4th**

I punched the 'Cades until they went away. Someone please come inside and kill me.

Nope, start attacking the harmanz inside, force them to use their precious AP on you

*evil laughter*

Julie is VHB.

I've only got one left. I'll admit, I spent some looking for a lowly 'caded building that I could defenestrate myself from.

You are inside Julie General Hospital, its empty wards criss-crossed with snapped quarantine tape. The building has been very heavily barricaded. Also here are Penn85 and Dr Merr.

Dr. Merr wasn't here when I brought down the 'Cades. He's the one who re'caded.

Ah, if you smack 1 harman the rest tend to flock up on you and quickly return you to the sweet embrace of death

Mr Tom Horn said "Begone Spawn of Chaos! In the name of the Emperor I banish ye to the Eye of Terror! Begone I say- YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!! The Emperor Protects!"

We're screwed.......maybe not...he didn't tell us the odds...

**notprop**

NEVERTELLMETHEODd.....oh sorry you didn't

I got one, I got one! (well I got Julie down to lightly-1 anyway)

**Jihadin**

There are seven dead bodies here. One of them smells strange. You recognise The Kronk Shuffle and Kay VanRaven amongst them.

If this was real life and I came across two bodies like this. Even Manchu would give me the thumbs up for this. I would have to foot launch both nutz on the bodies to ensure they're not playing dead....saving Kronk for last...with a six feet starting kick off....with my combat boots....

When you mix 40K with LOTR, you don't generate a lot of fear in your audience. He does gets props for making the game more interesting. I wish more of the harmanz chatted as we clawed them.

It is getting crowded outside of Julie General Hospital.

You are standing outside Julie General Hospital, an imposing concrete building with black crosses painted across its doors. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded.

Lights are on inside.

Somebody has spraypainted RP 5N 1W - Boardsies onto a wall.

There is a mob of twenty other zombies here, ten of them from your horde. You recognise shadoh9, envy555, Darryn Stanmore, Eldercaveman, Niexist3, Brains McVee, Lumpsneeze, Ephraim Pitman, notpopped, Mr Janje, Sanek94, Duceswild1189, FireFighter1998, Savus Jebus, OG the Downtrodden and AgeOfEgos amongst them.

There are six dead bodies here. One of them smells strange. You recognise The Kronk Shuffle, Kay VanRaven, Finch Coyote and Marcus Briar amongst them.

Since your last turn:

The lights came on inside the Jillard Building. (7 hours and 12 minutes ago)
John Barnaby revivified a zombie. (6 hours and 51 minutes ago) ...and again.
OG the Downtrodden stood up. (5 hours and 14 minutes ago)
OG the Downtrodden said "Kill me my brethren! For I long to rejoin the undead horde." (5 hours and 14 minutes ago)
OG the Downtrodden said "Good work Mr Janje! Keep it up." (5 hours and 6 minutes ago)
OG the Downtrodden knocked loudly on the door. (5 hours and 5 minutes ago)
OG the Downtrodden said "Yes, hurt me, little nurgling..." (5 hours and 5 minutes ago)
A zombie killed OG the Downtrodden. (4 hours and 58 minutes ago)
A zombie thumped loudly on the door. (3 hours and 47 minutes ago) ...and again.
A zombie said "Rrn hra amn rrrh" (3 hours and 47 minutes ago)
OG the Downtrodden rose from the dead as a zombie. (3 hours and 31 minutes ago)
A zombie said "Grh." (3 hours and 30 minutes ago)
26.34 MHz: "Oldscumdog..oh Oldscumdog..have you read the news?" (2 hours and 22 minutes ago)
26.34 MHz: "It is making headlines. SLAP!!!" (2 hours and 21 minutes ago)

I really need to get revivified so that I can change my radio frequency. I am getting tired of hearing MDK's transmissions.

**polaria**

Julie at EHB and needs to be popped open. I'll go at it on usual time tonight.

**motyak**

I'm alive outside julie atm. If you don't off me I'll duck inside when you guys get it down to VSB or whatever level I can slip in and start being a dick.

**Savagecoyote**

What sort of sick person revivifies someone in a the middle of a horde of zombies ?

**Jihadin**

You are standing outside Julie General Hospital, an imposing concrete building with black crosses painted across its doors. The building has been heavily barricaded.

Got it down to HB....if Clan Coyote get a move on the barricades instead of tripping over Kronk we might be accomplishing something

"wipes feet on the Kronk Mat"

**motyak**

Cheers whoever et me. Twas much appreciated. Now I can tear down from the outside instead of the inside

**Alfndrate**

Dinner is served!
You are inside Julie General Hospital, its empty wards criss-crossed with snapped quarantine tape. The doors to the street have been left wide open. Also here are MrHappySocks (60HP) and Dr Merr (60HP).

A portable generator has been set up here. It is running.

Somebody has spraypainted Everyone needs access to FAKs, Keep at Very Strong onto a wall.

There is another zombie here.

**sparkywtf**

Julie is open again!

Come on in and eat fellas!

**Dark Apostle 666**

^ you guys go on without me - I spent all 44AP to get it down to loosely... Need a lie down...

**Platuan4th**

Someone's recadding, tore em down again, but still can't open doors.

Had to kick Kronk out of the way to do it, though.

**AgeOfEgos**

Doors open, I blew my ap earlier on Cade smashing, everyone rush in!

3 humans inside

**Platuan4th**

AoE, was that you that was the other Zed in there? If so, I lack your contact info.

Dr. Merr is recading.

JB

Wow...23 standing zombies at Julie General Hospital plus another eight of our horde lying down as the red carpet to the front door.

I'll attack at the usual time. Cheers Polaria!

Hi Savagecoyote,

What is your UD character profile? Are you Finch Coyote?

I'm currently updating our contact list.

Who is Niexist3?

**Manchu**

It's at VSB+ right now, you might want to hurry.

JB

My hit rate was much better this time.
