h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Don't come to me asking for an ACE, I am not longer an ACE, I resigned earlier this week, as I should have done severa months ago as there were several things I don't agree with about the job. I won't be missed that much, as well I don't think anyone really ever noticed that I was there. So my badger is gone now for god, as I don't think I'll ever be revolunteering for the position of ACE.

If anyone needs an ACE, there are plent of good ones, TB, Lil, Dr Anthea, VV etc.

Oh and before anyone asks, I do not wish to get into a discussion about such things on this website, as I would only get into trouble on this website.

While I'm at it, I don't want to get shouted at for defamation of any researcher, as that would be too scary, oh no for the hills, someone is shouting defamation. and before anyone tries to scream it, don't this is a family site and we don't need any arguing.While I am here though I will meantion that defamation is the tarnishing of someone's good name, so I want to know if someone doesnt have a good name is it still defamation?

For college I have to research copyright and all sorts of legal requirements. I know bits of things beefore I start, like the fact you can't copyright names or ideas, unless it is a company name an then there are all sorts of provisos. I know the difference between a copyright of a product, ie a popular movie or tv show and holding the liciense to produce say a roleplaying game or toys. Holding a liciense doesn't entitle the company to start giving away permission for people to use the copyright owed by th original prducer of the movie. but as most of what I know doesn't apply to being an artist or illustrator, then I am pretty much starting from scratch.

Okay I gues what I really want to say is that I dont' enjoy being around here anymore. I tried to come back to roleplay, or do anything, but I really cant motivate mysef to use that much time on what now is so little reward. There are some people on this site that shout alsorts if I even say a word I get flamer, troll, defamation shouted at me. I have even been told that I won't be listened to as I was religious. I am just fed up with everything and I can't be bothered.

I admit my prupose for coming here is selfish, as I was told about the site back in 2001 and told what it was for and wasnt interested. it wasn't until I got to Uni in 2003 that I joined and that was only to rolepaly with anthea as she had been telling me about it for months, and I no lone had msn to talk to he, so I joined up to spend time taling to more than my family back home on the telephone.

Since everyone disappeared last summer I have only used the site really to host my poetry, which I don't wite much at the moment, I have a fair number of poems under my belt though in under a year. Now I used the site to put really bad ideas that I ahd for stories and comics, and the only reason I haven't totally withdrawn is that I dont' want to appear totally selfish, although I know I am.

I rewrote the entire history of the assassins guild, thoug I never really took part as I should have done due to the fact I was too scared to look at it, I am writing about itt and Khamsin in a series of stories that I have been writing, and I have one image in my head, and I don't want to look, I don't seem to be able to. We kept the ammount of pages small not to overwhelm, not that I think it would matter due to the fact RPG isn't that popular anymore on the site. It has always been the same players whatever the game is, whether is be the shadow realm, the Academy, the magicians or the assassins it has always been the same players. The problem is that now most of those players are long since gone and we have never really been able to keep newbies for very long.

I know that the edited guide isn't for me, I dont want to go head to head with peer review, there is no point, I wouldn't get anywhere and there is nothing that I want to write about, not really. there isn't a=even anything that I have already used, that doesn't have too much opinion and not enough enough facts. I tried the underguide, but that was marked as too specific, so I carried on writing for the post, it and the community artist sceme are the only ways I seem able to contribute.

I feel like I should retire from the site as I seem to be incapable of doing anything but lurk in the shadows.

Khamsin ~ thinking abut reality again

What do you need to know about that? I know environmental, but I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here.
