Are you trying to start a fight?? Why don't you read what Gryffin wrote instead of tell her what a bad job she's doing. I'm suree you could do a muuch better one. We. Never. Said. Anything. About. A. War. So why don't you stop discussing it because obviously it's a horrible idea.
I don't want to make enemies, but I also don't like it when my friends are insulted.

Kay obviously this thread was made so we could throw out ideas and to see what sort of plots we could come up with lol
it wasn't final that we were gonna kidnap a cub but it was just one of the many ideas we could come up with IF we wanted to include other members. I mean everything else has been done...
and we never said we'd disclude any members.
a better fashion? O.o lol we're still figuring out details and what plot to go with.
lmaooo out of hand, it makes this sound as if one little thing goes wrong then everything just falls apart. this is an rp people! not the bomb squad

I have never insulted Gryffin, and never ONCE did I say she was doing a bad job, talk about putting words into others peoples mouth Sora!
But kidnapping a cub was one idea, and all I was simply trying to get across is that it would cause more of an uproar then anyone wants right now, so instead of continuously fighting about it, why don't we all as a group try to figure something else out.

Chill out, the three of you. You guys are starting to get way too uptight.

Sora, Ayame didn't mean it as an insult - and it shouldn't have been taken that way. We all just need to calm down and start over. The reason people have been talking about a war is because, as Ayame said, there's no way a pack would take the kidnapping of one of their cubs and possible injury, etc, lying down. They'd retaliate, and a war would be inevitable. We know you never mentioned a war in the first place, but it would have been really hard to avoid.

Alright guys come on, lets move on. We've gotten each other's points across. Now where are we moving along with this? I think the idea with Sora's cub was fine if we're still gonna take a cub.

i was just stating my points... sorry if defending what i say offends you O.o i was not trying to be uptight but explain to you in a straight forward statement of what me and sora were planning with you guys since everyone assumes what we were trying to do and convict us of doing this and that. *hiccup*
fine add some more ideas that are a better "fashion"

Well, Kai and Chalos simply posted to at least let you guys know that just in case you lot were thinking of war either now or in the near future, Koran and Deor would rather not be involved. So they at least weren't assuming, instead trying to give a heads up so you guys can better plot down what you're gonna be doing. If the three of you have an issue you'd like to get out, please do so via IM and/or Private Message.
Holy cow my text colour is blinding.
GRYFFIN EDIT: yah i know you guys were. Just somewhere in the cbox ( i skimmed it) i saw the sentance "we should really consider other drappas/draggas" and "we shouldnt disclude anyone and everyone should have a say" I forgot who said it cause im too lazy to go scroll back. But i was just saying to that comment that we never had.
but it just seems that there are alot of assumptions so i just wanted to make it clear to everyone so we don't actually get into a deep mess.
and trust me... I know the rules about issues and PMing... we had this ordeal a few months ago =P
yah your colour is ouchies x__x

Wow I've missed out on a whole load of stuff
Ok, here's my opinion. I like the idea of the human village thing. We need to not only get our characters up and running into something interesting, but working with our human characters should really help boost motivation and muse. The one of the humans poisoning our food is good but it's too long and I can see it dragging out. Something quicker and that'll move smoother like the first idea sounds better.
And...sooorrryyy for being so inactive, life has just totally taken over >.<

Yeah, I've been racking my brain trying to think of something but the only thing I can come up with is maybe asking for GeRads help against the humans. But don't even know if they would be interested or if the rest of the pack would be interested. So I'm up for our mini plot wherever

I think a mini plot sounds the best idea to be honest, the human village one attacking us sounds like the best plan in my eyes. We've not used them in so long it will be refreshing I feel.

I thought I'd make a few guidelines for the fight part; like how many dogs, people, and horses there are and how big the dogs are so that we're all fighting the same fight. Hope no one minds, and people can change this or whatever. =)
Anyway, there's about 7-8 of us so maybe 12 dogs would be a good number?? And I thought the dogs could be wolf hounds. Here's a link to read up on them and what it might be like to write about a hunt taking place. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Wolfhound
Than if we each play a human that again is like 7-8 humans, but I don't know if that number matters to much. Also should they have arrows and spears or no weapons at all??
I don't know if you guys want horses or not.
And this is a little blurb I found on the internet about wolf hunting; maybe it'll help people as a reference.
The Grey Wolf (Canis lupus) is the largest member of the canidae. Though once abundant over much of North America and Eurasia, the grey wolf inhabits a very small portion of its former range because of widespread destruction of its habitat; in some regions it is endangered or threatened. Considered as a whole, however, the grey wolf is regarded as of least concern for extinction according to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources. Wolf weight and size can vary greatly worldwide, tending to increase proportionally with latitude as predicted by Bergmann's Rule. Wolves are usually hunted in heavy brush and are considered especially challenging to hunt, due to their elusive nature and sharp senses.[40] Grey wolves are notoriously shy and difficult to kill, having been stated to be almost as hard to stalk as cougars, and being far more problematic to dispatch with poison, traps or hounds. Wolves though generally do not defend themselves as effectively as cougars or bears.[41] Some wolves will evade capture for very long periods of time and display great cunning. On specimen nicknamed "Three Toes of Harding County" in South Dakota eluded its pursuers for 13 years before finally being caught.[42] Another wolf nicknamed "Rags the digger" near Meeker, Colorado would deliberately ruin trap lines by digging up traps without tripping them.[43] In Sport hunting, wolves are usually taken in late Autumn and early Winter, when their pelts are of the highest quality and because the heavy snow makes it easier for the wolves to be tracked.[40] Adult wolves are usually too fast to be overtaken by wolfhounds, but not for well conditioned horses, especially in thick snow. A shot wolf must be approached with caution, as some wolves will play possum. If the ears of the animal are erect, then it is safe to approach. If they are folded back, then the animal must be shot again.[12] Accounts as to how wolves react to being trapped or cornered vary. John James Audubon wrote that young wolves typically show little resistance to being caught, whereas older, more experienced wolves will fight savagely.
So ya, just thought we could try and work on some details and whatnot so it's kinda organized. =)
EDIT: This seemed helpful as well:
In his book Hunting the Grisly and Other Sketches, Theodore Roosevelt wrote that though the use of Hunting dogs was the most effective means of wolf hunting, wolves were nonetheless extremely dangerous opponents for the dogs.[41]
“ A wolf is a terrible fighter. He will decimate a pack of hounds by rabid snaps with his giant jaws while suffering little damage himself; nor are the ordinary big dogs, supposed to be fighting dogs, able to tackle him without special training. I have known one wolf to kill a bulldog which had rushed at it with a single snap, while another which had entered the yard of a Montana ranch house slew in quick succession both of the large mastiffs by which it was assailed. The immense agility and ferocity of the wild beast, the terrible snap of his long-toothed jaws, and the admirable training in which he always is, give him a great advantage over fat, small-toothed, smooth-skinned dogs, even though they are nominally supposed to belong to the fighting classes. In the way that bench competitions are arranged nowadays this is but natural, as there is no temptation to produce a worthy class of fighting dog when the rewards are given upon technical points wholly unconnected with the dog's usefulness. A prize-winning mastiff or bulldog may be almost useless for the only purposes for which his kind is ever useful at all. A mastiff, if properly trained and of sufficient size, might possibly be able to meet a young or undersized Texas wolf; but I have never seen a dog of this variety which I would esteem a match single-handed for one of the huge timber wolves of western Montana. Even if the dog was the heavier of the two, his teeth and claws would be very much smaller and weaker and his hide less tough.
