JLBrough

everyone ignored my question about which one should I read, the season or the sneak peek

I replied to you by saying not to read the sneak peek first because it was spoiler-heavy

I don't read much on your season

We didn't ignore you. Claire answered your question

well I didn't see the answer.

It's ok

Hey, why did you leave?

Why did you leave?

I just told you, I didn't see an answer

Talking about yesterday. You suddenly left

If you have something to say, guys, you should do it where everyone can see it, not try to force a user into the chatroom, which is well known to be problematic. Ganging up on someone isn't okay.

JLBrough, you've been abusive to other users and that needs to stop. Calling people "losers" and other such nonsense is not tolerated. The next time it happens you'll be blocked.

Utter solitude, I'm trying to keep the temper down and that Shrek thread was years ago

and who are you to judge, you're an admin who barely ever does anything on the wiki anyway and threatening to block people is also wrong and won't make stuff better, look, be reasonable instead of saying "that is not acceptable, next time you will be blocked".

why are admins so mean when responding to people's wrongdoings on the wikia?

instead of trying to reassure them, they just make it worse by threatening to block them and again, that's not being reasonable, is just wrong and won't make any difference so why don't you look at yourself and try and learn a lesson from what I am saying.

JLBrough, that was the final straw. First of all, that comment was rude and disrespectful (just like when you called Aine a loser, and that was in August – definitely not "years ago"). Second: Utter has a perfectly valid reason for not spending a lot of time at the wiki these days; however, as this is a private matter, I'll leave it up to her to reveal the precise details, if she so chooses. Due to your repeated insults, you have been blocked for a week. Please learn from this.

well that just proves my point about what I was saying about Admins being unreasonable

hey but whatever maybe I will spend some time on the other wikis.

Sorry if those words offend you but that doesn't mean they are not true.

and that Shrek thread was in 2017 so technically it was two years ago so it is technically years ago since I did not specify how many.

hope you admins REALIZE that you just proved my point.

They are not being unreasonable. They are enforcing the wiki policies. You were rude towards many users many times and was warned about it many times, both on chat and on threads

The thread was created on 2017. You replied to it in August 27, 2019

That's it, I'm muting you. From now on, you are unable to post on your message wall while blocked.

I'm back, sorry about what I said just before being blocked.

"and who are you to judge, you're an admin who barely ever does anything on the wiki anyway" I am very active on this Wiki. One does not need to edit a hundred times a day to be active.

"and threatening to block people is also wrong" I am not threatening anyone, when you break rules, there are consequences.

"and won't make stuff better" It makes "stuff" a lot better for the people you are rude and insulting to.

"look, be reasonable instead of saying "that is not acceptable, next time you will be blocked"." The only person being unreasonable here is you. Insulting people is unacceptable, and that's how you got yourself banned.

"why are admins so mean when responding to people's wrongdoings on the wikia?" No one is being "mean" to you. There are consequences for breaking rules, and the rules about respecting others are very serious around here.

"instead of trying to reassure them, they just make it worse by threatening to block them and again, that's not being reasonable, is just wrong and won't make any difference so why don't you look at yourself and try and learn a lesson from what I am saying."

What do you think you need reassurance about? It is NOT okay to insult other people. Period. That applies in all aspects of life, not just here. You were given a warning about it. You made the whole thing worse for yourself. It's perfectly reasonable, and if you can't handle it, maybe you should take a break from the Wikia and perhaps the Internet in general. There's no reason to get so worked up. If you find yourself so upset that you need to insult people, just take a break.

I sincerely hope you've had a change in attitude after this.

look, I said sorry, just read my post above, of course, I had a change in attitude but I just said sorry and you said "I sincerely hope you've had a change in attitude after this", that sounds very questionable considering I apologized, oh and isn't saying "take a break from the wikia and the Internet in general" technichally insulting and being mean, now you just made yourself a hypocrite.

You very clearly haven't had a change in attitude. You don't get to insult people and expect them not to respond, or expect no consequences for it.

You've been blocked for a month. When it's over, there's no need to respond to this at all, you can just improve your behavior, otherwise, continued insults and nastiness will result in more blocks until you earn yourself a permanent one.

why the hell is that a thing, it's fanon

The rule is to help you out, as someone whose later seasons would be approaching 20 main cast members I can say that having a main cast member limit can help me control the season and keep it from overflowing with plots, and that’s the point of it.

look at my thread and see for yourself.

Um, I don’t understand what you are trying to say? Your thread hasn’t been updated recently, neither have your season pages, if you don’t know how to make your cast smaller I would gladly help you out, either here or in chat, and I’m sure the other Fanon Managers would help you too.

what I meant was check my thread or season pages to see how large my cast is

Oh, I’m sorry for misunderstanding you, but I have, which is why I send the message to you.

Oh and one quick (or as I’m rereading this, long) suggestion, when choosing the cast, think about what your main plot is, and when picking your cast choose the most important people who will be appearing the most in it and makes sure you prioritize them before any other character you’re interested in (for example my season’s main plot is the threat of a bunch of villains manipulated by Wilhelm through Rumpelstiltskin to Regina’s leadership, so the first people who I would need to choose are Regina, who is leading everything, Rumpel, who is the one actually moving around the plot for Wilhelm, and Moana, the core villain overwhelming Regina, the other 9 cast members come from the stories stemming from that conflict), also since you’ve said you don’t know why Sidney is a main character, don’t make him one, that’s just one less person you have to deal with and give a major arc too.

Sidney is a crucial character in this season, he's met Cthulhu before and has seen what he's done, Sidney is an important character in this season so I'll probably just take like someone else out, Sidney is a very important character in this season, okay.

I’m sorry, you had previously said you didn’t actually know why you made him a regular so I figured he’d be a safe bet, I didn’t realize that since then you’d given him an important role (btw I’m in the chat if you need help).

I suppose I could take out Gideon or Jefferson since in this season, they're just members of the team or I can take out Captain Nemo but this will be exploring more of his backstory including his friendship with new character Sinbad but Gideon's role will take relevance in the next season and so will Lily's and I think Jefferson's will as well.

Okay, so I loooked at your casts, and I think that having a cast of Henry, Hook, Regina, Emma, Nemo, Sidney, Sinbad and Cthulu would work, based solely on what little you have revealed about your season. I’m sure that some of your other 9 characters have big roles I don’t know about, but you still have 4 slots left to put them in.

JLBrough, can you please join the chat? We'd like to discuss something with you

No, no thanks

We need to talk to you about the project. It'd be very helpful if you just join the chat

Since you have refused to come on we’ll just tell you what we wanted to say there.

We don’t feel like you have been respecting the rules of this project, you have ignored our cast member limit and when we try to tell you to change your season to reflect this you avoid limiting it and instead waffle about it, while continuing to add more characters your season 9 and announcing cast members for a S10. Your extra seasons are also a problem, despite your eighth season being incomplete you started a page for the ninth season and before anything besides cast members were revealed for that you announced more for your tenth season. When we tried to call you to discuss this you refused, and have continued to refuse, to join the chat, because of this we are telling you that if you don’t quickly start to follow the rules we will close your thread for a period of time.

woah, woah, I never said I was refusing and ignoring the limit, the characters I've announced, I haven't decided if they're guest stars or regulars but Ursula, Tom Lask and Magnus are the spies for the team in this season so I want them to be regulars but on the other hand given this new limit, that means I either have to move Monsieur D'Arque (Who is the climactic villain of this season) and Spring-heeled Jack (Who's death is the inciting incident leading to S9) to guest stars or take them out of the season which I am not doing because they are important to the plot, okay and don't assume that I'm ignoring the limit again just because I've announced new characters.

You literally refused to come to chat when we called you

We would still like you to join chat too, this conversation would go much faster and be much easier if you were here.

fine, I just joined chat so there

I see you added Avalon to the FanonCharacter template. You missed a few steps but I'd be happy to fix it. What is the hex color for Avalon?

I'd go with maroon as the color for avalon.

Done :)
