You don't have to explain yourself, and I'm
glad you are taking the time to give a little
insight into what occured.

But there are people who have played a few
battleragers in their time, and others who
have opinions regarding immortal interactions
(some might say interference). People have
a place to critcize, and thanks to dioxide
they have a place to voice it.

Did you even go back over that log, and see what
he was doing. He was taking on mage after mage
by himself. Necros with full armies, and conjurors
with servitors. You make a comment about being able
to see what he was up to. If you were really watching,
you might have noticed that not once did he ask for
help with any of the mages and their armies. Am I
getting that wrong? Is there precedent here that
I don't know about in regard to Kellyn? You laid into
him, and didn't even notice what he was doing currently,
and that was being a rager trying to destroy magic.
It may not have been personal but it came off that
way.

Was you did Thror was irritating. You didn't
have to single him out in front of the cabal.
As I commented above, you are singling him out
as he is taking mages down by himself without
asking for help.

If you said there was some precedent with Kellyn,
I would have left it alone. You haven't even hinted
at that. Is there that we aren't aware of?

I'm not going to tear you down Thror, but I do
disagree with what you did. However, I thought
he deleted rather hastily, but then again was it
a moot point in this case. If he hadn't said the
'right' things would you have thrown him out?

Log board is a nasty thing when they are logs like
these.
