I only joined yesterday, so I need to play Mafia before I can show you a completed game. That's part of the reason I'm requesting to join in. The other being that I really love old cartoons. These three games are the only ones in sign-ups, and I can hardly make any progress if I'm not allowed to play. There's nothing in the first post about required experience here, and you need a lot of people anyway...-

I don't leave games. My experience is with Mafia played over IM, so there are no links to give you. Someone already told me that no one will teach me anything. I believe I will be fine. Granted, a guide for all the terms would be great, and I'm hoping there is one on the Wiki. People always seem to be inventing more, and I can't recognize them all right off the bat. I know a lot more than you might think, and what I don't know can only benefit me in terms of strategy.-

I never meant to ignore your PM, Nero. I honestly never saw it-I actually just found it before coming here to read all the new posts, so I don't know why you want me to name your Hydra. I think something's wrong with my box. I got an alert, but it took me to a new message that was not yours. I'm not an alt, so please don't say such things.
I'm more than a little irritated. Let me clarify. I NEVER had trouble finding the Newbie Queue, and I'm well aware how long games can last. In fact, your post is very confusing, because one of my first posts here was about the deadlines, which I saw were that long...in the Newbie Queue. I've also repeatedly said that there were no Newbie games in sign-ups when I looked in that same thread. If you are going to judge me, please look at all my posts first.
I believe I grasp the site just fine, and I deserve a chance. I would NEVER "flake". I would never leave. Ever. Please don't let my Newbie status corrupt your mind against me. I'm smarter than you might think, and I'd never just abandon a game. When I join one, I'm in until the end, hard or not. What makes you think I don't know the basics? The offer to quiz me is still valid. I see any inexperience I have as a weapon.
farside22, you said I could play, and it was no secret I had signed up for three games. It's kind of unfair to go back on that now. Also, your game is probably going to start a while after those two do, as at least one of them is close to being full.
Don't underestimate the Newbie. Or do, because that can only work to my advantage in the game itself. But don't let that keep me out of the game and don't use that to force restrictions on me.-

It wasn't posted in the first post, so the fault is not mine. And the host still said I could play, despite knowing I hadn't played any games here.
You really need to stop calling me disrespectful. There is nothing disrespectful about asking to be given a chance, especially after already being told I could play. It's disrespectful to keep underestimating me. I know what I'm doing, even if you don't think so.-

I said that I had signed up for three games in the post that you replied to, though... Post 33. You replied in Post 35, addressing me specifically. If you're trying to say the fault is on me for not reading everything, the same must be said of you. But I don't think I'm in the wrong. All game info is supposed to be in the first post.
I keep telling you I can handle it. And why do you care if I get overwhelmed? I'm not going to quit. No way, no how. But I won't be overwhelmed. I've got experience with playing through multiple games at once. It's what I do. There's no harm in letting me in and seeing for yourself. This game still needs a lot of players, and by the time it starts, it's quite possible one of the others will either be over, have not started, or I'll have been killed off. I've already said I don't intend to just drop out, and I don't know what more I can say.
And please stop saying I'm an alt. I'm having enough trouble being accepted without people spreading rumors about me.-

Far, why did you repeatedly ignore me about my friend? And it's pretty cruel to implement that rule out of spite for me? I don't really appreciate you trying to label me as a malicious spammer. How am I going to play your game like this? I don't like the host taking shots at me, insulting my play-style, putting post restrictions on a game where posting is essential, and expecting us all to keep contract of how many posts we make in a thread daily.I'm new here-get over it.-

It was pretty obvious that it was about me, especially since in our current game, he was one of the people pushing to Policy Lynch me for making over 50 posts in one day, which is also the exact number he uses above. And the "spam" comment makes it even more obvious.
And my friend did make an account, but Far never answered if he could join.I'm new here-get over it.-

You did not answer, even after I repeated the question. And I clearly said he HAS played online.
The issue is that this rule and the spam comments are a clear shot at me, and with you hosting this game, it does not bode well. The rule is flawed. We can't edit our posts, and Mafia is a game were posting a lot is essential. The more posts a person makes, the easier it is to get a read on them. No one should have to frequently go back and check how many posts they've made all the time.I'm new here-get over it.-

It says right there he has played on another forum.
How am I supposed to play when even the host can't stop taking shots at me and designs a role that prevents me from playing to the best of my ability and pretty much guarantees I will get killed? I am not a spammer just because I post a lot. Another member PMed me a while ago about how we all have different playstyles and should adapt to one another's methods, but this makes it impossible for me to play at all. And you want me to replace out, which I'm sure you will all then use against me whenever I try to sign up for any future games.
EDIT: And see, there it is again. I gave you several very good reasons why this would mess up the game, but just like in the games, you just say it's for "personal reasons". This is ridiculous.I'm new here-get over it.-

WELCOMING?! You three especially have been the most unwelcoming members of this forum and nearly made me leave it twice already!
The personal attacks are getting old, especially when coming from the host.
The rule causes problem after problem, and it goes against the whole point of Mafia.
We cannot edit our posts. Mafia is a game where we are expected to read others through their posts-the more they make, the better. It is a game where we are expected to argue and counter-argue, and so on. This rule prevents all of that.I'm new here-get over it.-

Who decides what is legitimate discussion? I mean, most of my "spam" posts in the other game where game-relevant, yet I was still called a spammer by people. Also, keep in mind that most of those posts were me having to defend myself against the persistent attempts to lynch me, by several players who are actually IN this game.
Far, you made this rule because of me. Everything you've said could be quoted from the other thread. You think I'm some evil spammer just because I post a lot. But I am an active player, and even moreso because I tend to be targeted. Should we targeted players worry about defending ourselves or challenging others' opinions because we have to keep an eye on our post count?
EDIT: SERIOUSLY? I just repeated my reasons RIGHT AFTER THAT POST!I'm new here-get over it.-

Look at the player list and look at both games I've been in. In both, I had players actively trying to lynch me, and not just because they thought I was Mafia. Some wanted me out for non-game reasons. On top of all the regular posting, I had to defend myself from these very strong attempts. On top of that, certain players in this game I know will keep trying to lessen the worth of every statement I make, which will lead to even more stuff I have to defend myself from and a lot of having to try and repeat or strengthen my words, because I can't let others believe those lies.I'm new here-get over it.-

That I turned out to be Mafia was just a coincidence, not at all relevant to how I was treated.
There are 24 players in this game. If I respond to a question asked by each one of them at separate intervals, that is 24 posts right there. Then there's voting, arguing, counter-arguing, defending myself, and so on. And in a game with Matt and Aru? I mean, how am I supposed to play? I'm going to actively be pushed for the lynch, and no one is going to put any value on a word I say, and I can't even make the posts to defend myself?I'm new here-get over it.-

Not sure what you're trying to say, but this rule was created because of what happened between Far and myself in the other game. And it effects me more than anyone else, as I have an active playstyle and usually get targeted for kills pretty heavily, as well as the fact that I am always being forced to repeat and defend my opinions because people will just make up excuses for them.I'm new here-get over it.-

Whenever I express suspicion or anything like that in a game, people like Matt and Aru-both of whom are in this game-react a certain way. They always dismiss my opinions as false or say I'm just attacking people for targeting me. They both do this EVERY TIME. This forces me to repeat my reasoning, which they will again dismiss, until we get into an argument over taking my opinions seriously. I thus end up needing more posts than posts players just to get my opinions across. Most of my posts are in response to others.I'm new here-get over it.-

I only know what I was told about those rules, which came from an admin. And why would you bring that up here, in public? As if I'm not having enough trouble being accepted.
I'm certain that it's impossible for me to be so inactive in a game, especially one with this many people. And having to worry about my post count will make is a lot less enjoyable, especially since the rule was only made to hinder me and labels me as a spammer. I'm also sure that certain people will abuse this rule by drawing me into arguments and then leaving me unable to defend myself.I'm new here-get over it.-

Last, I do try to do that, but it doesn't work. And it doesn't have to be everyone. All it takes is one or two people. And again, this game has nearly as many players as we are allowed posts.
Junpei, you were the one talking about discrimination. This rule was only created because Far was unhappy with how much I posted in our game. No one else has made over fifty posts, and the spam comments cement it. If a rule is presented designed to inconvenience one player more than anyone else, how is that fair? It puts me at a serious disadvantage and gives everyone else something to use against me. And believe me, some people WILL use it against me.I'm new here-get over it.-

I have not bullied anyone. And it is painfully obvious this rule was made because of me. Are you honestly expecting me to believe it's a coincidence? Far plays a game where he wants my Policy Lynched for making more than 50 posts in a day, which he calls spam. Then, less than a day later, Far suddenly adds a rule to his game where he mentions that some people make more than 50 posts a day and that is spam? Not buying that as a coincidence.
You might not, PM, but others definitely would.
This rule will not help me, and I am against something that will hinder me and likely me alone.
Last, I have done all those things, but it doesn't change my post count. Have you read any of the two games I've been in?I'm new here-get over it.-

No. Because this is cruel and wrong. I've been struggling to be accepted, and then a host with a grudge makes a rule like this. I CAN'T play the game like this. Posting is a crucial part of the game. How am I supposed to play without being able to voice my opinion or defend myself? This rule is offensive, ruins the game, and it takes all the fun out of it for me.I'm new here-get over it.-

It does violate the concept of Mafia. Posts are a very crucial part of the game, and limiting the amount we can make ruins it. And the fact that the rule was made just to harass and hinder me only makes it worse. Far could have just said he didn't want me to play. I think he wants to make me drop out, so Matt and Aru can have a celebration and call me a few more derogatory names, while all three of them can spread the tale so I lose even more respect on this site. And if you think no one is bullying me, you need to reread everything that's been going on.I'm new here-get over it.-

You are not constantly attacked and degraded, I'd assume. There is no way out of this for me. Playing with the rule, is not possible, especially with Matt and Aru. Their participation already means this game be unpleasant for me, full of name-calling, and they will just not let me play like they always do. This unjust rule and the reason why it was created further dampens my enthusiasm for this game. And if I don't play, then not only do I not get to play a game I've been waiting for a while for, but I won't be able to play any future games. This might not mean anything to you, but it means a lot to me.I'm new here-get over it.-

No, there aren't. This will be used against me, and I've been denied sign-ups to many games. Plus, I will never go through the pain of playing a Mini again. Took that advise once, and it was a mistake to do so.
This thread shows exactly what will happen in the game thread. How are we supposed to play if we have to worry about our post count and stop posting before we've said everything we need to?I'm new here-get over it.-

The rule is unjust and could ruin the game, so I will continue to stand against it. If a person plans to replace, they should keep tabs on what is going on in the game, just in case, or be willing to read through pages and pages. Otherwise, they shouldn't sign up for that. And why should it matter how many posts we make, so long as they are relevant to the game? A lot of posts does not equal spam.
Nobody, you know nothing about what I've been going through here, and your post reeks of trolling.I'm new here-get over it.-

I'm sure people would be beside themselves as I did what this rule and their bullying intended and left.
Tierce, you just said it. A game is supposed to be fun. It's bad enough I have to deal with two players that harass me non-stop and refuse to let me play. But how am I supposed to have fun knowing that this rule was created because of me, falsely calling my posts "spam"? How am I supposed to have fun if my playstyle is not allowed? If I can't defend myself? If I have to worry about post count on top of everything else?
You honestly think contributing to the game, no matter how actively, is spam?I'm new here-get over it.-

I get defensive when I am being harassed. It's clear some people on this site turn a blind eye to how others are acting, but that's pretty common, from what I've seen on forums. People tend to defend those they've known longer, even if they are in the wrong. I've even said several times that I've tried what Last said, and it doesn't help my post count.
I'm not just making an assumption. There is not a doubt in my mind why Far made this role. He himself has said that no one makes more than 50 posts in a day...besides me. He finds this spammy and even tried to get me killed for it. Then, less than a day or so after this incident, he makes this role and repeats the 50 posts thing in a way that clearly references me. It's too obvious. 1 post an hour? That is ridiculous. How the heck is a discussion or argument supposed to happen under those terms?
I have answered plenty of questions, so I have no idea what you're talking about. Don't try and blame the bullying on me. It's them that does it, when I'm just trying to play.
The rule was introduced AFTER I signed up and around the time confirmations happened. This is hardly acceptable. I should not have to sacrifice my participation under bullying. If Far didn't want me to play, he should have just said it.I'm new here-get over it.-
