With the Captains suffering casualties and heavy injuries on their side, all hope seemed to be lost... until Shinji Hirako appeared, along with the rest of the former Shinigami. Though the aid of the Vizards certainly helped to draw the battle in their favor, it seemed Aizen's power alone proved too much for them.
Okay. This is my official resignation from Bleach RPG: Chain of Life. I have had very, very fond memories here. I've made friendsd, lost touch with some, and even learned things I did not know about the ones I still have. However, this is no longer the "Chain of Life" I have grown to adore like my own site. This is an attempt to try to rekindle the old flame Yuna's old site had. If it were here today (which there are movements to get it back), there would be no staff problems, plot problems, etc. However, when it was deleted, this site was made by Matt to try to rekindle the old flame. It worked, up until December when the active member count dropped sharply to almost nothing. Then it worked for a few more months, until the issues with older staff caused the site to fall. In that time, Matt decided to hand the site off to Ake, who I think did a 8/10 job.
I know you can not please everyone but I do have some problems with the site.
1. Hikaru. There are, in my opion, more people who hate you than like you. I am one of the poeple who hate you. You are, in my and many others' opinions, a prick, jerk, etc. So, on behalf of myself and many many others....go fuck yourself.
2. The Tier System. This is a problem for people like me who are political junkies. It's biased. If you have/have had a problem with a mod or someone, isn't it in their nature to give you a lower tier? Of course. It's based on opinions and nothing else.
3. This is the fact that some people here only seem to care about the new members, not the old ones. Would you rather have fewer experienced soldiers or more inexpeirenced? It really depends on what side you are on in the "is the glass half full or half empty?" argument.
I am one of the very few members from not only Yuna's site but 2008-Matt's departure. On that note, I bid everyone a fond farewell as this should be my last time logging in. So long, farewell, amen.

I know you can't see it, but this is my not caring face. The people that don't like me, well they have a good reason to. Because I do not like them. And the reason I don't like them, is because many think they're entitled to something. They don't like that I treat them like everyone else. QQ more. Learn to write, and then maybe I'll take your opinion's into consideration.
2. The Tier System. This is a problem for people like me who are political junkies. It's biased. If you have/have had a problem with a mod or someone, isn't it in their nature to give you a lower tier? Of course. It's based on opinions and nothing else.
The tier system is based on the writing quality of the person applying. You are awarded a ranking based on the writing and development of your character, and the limits of that characters race. Nothing else. Personal thoughts on the player have nothing to do with it. If you got a low tier, then you deserved it.
3. This is the fact that some people here only seem to care about the new members, not the old ones. Would you rather have fewer experienced soldiers or more inexpeirenced? It really depends on what side you are on in the is the glass half full or half empty?
The glass is a glass that may or may not have liquid in it. I don't care either way. We treat everyone the same until they deserve different. We will not cater to you because you're of the "old guard".
But I suppose you didn't have enough guts to talk to anyone about your concerns. Instead you decided to try and incite drama.
Instead your meager arguments were thrashed, and you were made to look like the ignorant prepubescent fuckwad you really are.
Yo poser! What's up? You think you some sorta veteran or something? God, how pathetic! Did you really come here to try to drain the site of members? Because it fucking looks like you did. That's desperate man, pretty fucking desperate.
Ya know what? From what I'm hearing, about the real site dying, it's picked up bro. There are actually people here, as opposed to, what was it... nothing in December? The staff has done a 20/10 job by kicking the site up again, and remodeling it into a way that works.
You know what's funny? What's really funny? Is that a supposedly good staff let a man like timtank into 3rd seat. That's fucking ridiculous. You're retarded if you think that.
So Mr. Veteran, you're leaving. Ya know what? Have fun! Don't let the door hit you on the way out!
I am not, was not, or will not try to incite drama. All I am reporting is my opinion, and if you claim its "drama incitement material", then you are incorrect. I have NEVER caused Drama, nor will I. I have been part of drama, been the subject of it, but never caused it. All I am saying is what many other people have said.
"Instead your meager arguments were thrashed, and you were made to look like the ignorant prepubescent fuckwad you really are."
I may not be the smartest, most noticeable, or oldest person on here or in the world, but it is those comments that show what a person truly is, in my opinion. All it appears you are is a person who uses above-average metaphors and other things of the sort. Who determines what "quality" is? It can be broken down however it might, and still be the subject of opinion.
And no, I am not asking for special treatment, just saying it appears you are favoring quantity over quality. Might I warn you though, there are two sites that have sworn vengeance on this site. If things go halfway according to plan, we will have at least an 95% chance of "smashing this site into the ground". I do not see any of these people at these sites easing up...especially one site. The main owners of said site are bound and determined to fight it out to the end.
Hikaru, I will admit, you are not someone I would like to fight with...but if worse comes to worse: Nella politica, la spada e piu forte di la penna. In politics, the sword is mightier than the pen.
edit: Did I say that the old staff was better? No. I just don't approve of some of the actions that were taken. I was there that night when Matt gave the site to Ake and he said (on a seperate occasion) he would've given it to two other people, but they had disappeared. I am not saying "this is the worst staff I've ever seen".What I am saying, is nothing like that. I just have a problem with Hikaru. I do not view you people as my mortal enemies but as acquaintances, that have strayed onto another path. My path leads to my enlightenment and yours leads to your own. And I do believe that the old staff was equally great as this one, for there was one person on each staff that I (along with others) have had/have a problem with. And I do not know who this "timtank" is as an rp'er, but I did see his name appear a few times. The old staff did have a few things to deal with that the new ones do not. I apologize that you misunderstood me.

Wow, aside from telling Temple how you think, you really came off as an insulting, ignorant dumbass. Way to wear out your welcome! Yaaay! Go to hell!
Well, buddy, Fuck you. Seriously.
I'm not biased when I give power tiers. I'm insulted that you implied otherwise. I'm very certain the rest of the staff aren't biased. Again, Fuck you, especialy for insulting people you don't know.
We have tiers for a reason. It keeps people fresh out of the academy from beating the everliving shit out of a captain. So, yeah, our system works. Sooo, fuck you, buddy.
"experience" does not equal posting/app quality. If you post a shitty app, you get a low tier, or denied regardless. We don't have preference coz we gotta treasure the newblood as much as anyone else that's active. If you have a problem with us not playing favorites, well guess what?! I have 2 words for ya! Fuck you!
We welcome the old guard, and the new blood equally. He happy with it. If you aren't, Fuck you.
Frankly you haven't been on, or tried to offer any contribution to the new guard, and haven't even tried to get to know us.
I hope you enjoy being an ignorant sunovabitch as much as I don't give a shit about you, or your point of view since it's likely based on nothing, and this is some fucktarded attempt to advertise some other site (and I'm sure your adds will be lovingly deleted since you wanna be a jackass, and cause emo drama here and we don't like people who try to start emo drama 'round these parts!) as opposed to saying goodbye to a board that, lately you've only done 2 things for, and those are Jack, and Shit.
I'm sure it was you that helped kill the older CoL, too!
Honestly, if you'd even made a half assed try to know the new staff, you'd see we aren't a bad lot.
But you prolly just wanted to be staff, and are bitching at us coz you aren't staff.
There's a lot more I could say about you being a jackass, a moron, a fucktard, an ignorant bastard, and such, but honestly, everything will boil down to this.
"Fuck you!"
P.S. Go to hell. We don't give a shit coz you haven't done a damn thing to help your situation with this board, and that revokes all your rights to bitch about the staff, and the system.
P.S.S. We're doing fine despite this war against our site, and honestly, I don't know of any attempts made against our site, so, yeah, they may be against us, but they aren't really stopping us.
So, thanks for the warning! Now, fuck off unless you wanna help this site. We're tired of your bitching.

And yet... what are you doing right now... especially by posting things like this:
1. Hikaru. There are, in my opion, more people who hate you than like you. I am one of the poeple who hate you. You are, in my and many others' opinions, a prick, jerk, etc. So, on behalf of myself and many many others....go fuck yourself.
Welcome to the world of hypocrisy, good sir. You say you don't want to cause drama, and yet, look at what you posted in your original post.
"Instead your meager arguments were thrashed, and you were made to look like the ignorant prepubescent fuckwad you really are."
I may not be the smartest, most noticeable, or oldest person on here or in the world, but it is those comments that show what a person truly is, in my opinion.

It can be broken down however it might, and still be the subject of opinion.
Says the hypocrite whom I just quoted who first started making derogatory comments at the person who returned fire, and now you're backing down like a coward when the person you incited bites back. You don't like to take responsibility for your own actions I take it.
And no, I am not asking for special treatment, just saying it appears you are favoring quantity over quality. Might I warn you though, there are two sites that have sworn vengeance on this site. If things go halfway according to plan, we will have at least an 95% chance of "smashing this site into the ground". I do not see any of these people at these sites easing up...especially one site. The main owners of said site are bound and determined to fight it out to the end.
It seems you forget when you make a post, people can go back read it, such as, you statement qouting here, somewhat contradicts what I'm qouting you saying here:
3. This is the fact that some people here only seem to care about the new members, not the old ones. Would you rather have fewer experienced soldiers or more inexpeirenced? It really depends on what side you are on in the "is the glass half full or half empty?" argument.
I'll ABC the contradiction for you sense you're too much of a blind hypocrite to see yourself. You say you don't want special treatment, yet here you are complaining that despite how we actually reward long time players who make good posts and are active. You think you should be given more than the new players simply because you're around. Not because of what you contributed, but... you've been around for awhile... If you want that kind of mindnumbing pandering, then I suggest you go to one of those crap sites that base power level off of fucking post count rather than waste our time by staying here and bitching.
Hikaru, I will admit, you are not someone I would like to fight with...but if worse comes to worse: Nella politica, la spada e piu forte di la penna. In politics, the sword is mightier than the pen.
This isn't politics, child. It's you just whining on a Bleach RP forum board.

Not trying to incite drama eh? Then why are you even here? You left for months. Came back. Posted this. And then you didn't even leave. You lurked around to see the shit storm you could cook up. If you're going to leave, then leave. We do not care about you.
Yes. I am a well educated, opinionated, and stubborn asshole. This is common knowledge. I use above-average metaphors. I use words some people do not understand. I have standards that some may think are too high.
However, it is plainly obvious when writing is of poor quality, when it is mediocre, and when it is of good quality. This is how we judge things. If you don't like it, feel free to get the fuck out.
And quantity over quality? What QUALITY members did you use to have? Maybe like three. You think the "old guard" was quality? Fuck no. They were all sever practitioners of FAVORITISM. Momo couldn't write her way out of a paper bag, although I'm sure she would have loved to give you an essay of how brown the bag was. Yuna's grammar and punctuation were TERRIBLE. Not to mention that just about everyone that had staff god moded until the sun came up. Oh, and you weren't staff? Sucks to be you, because events (not like you ever had any REAL ones) didn't have ANYTHING to do with you. Unless you got on your knees and sucked the admin's dick.
Quantity over quality? You have it backwards.
And I'm not afraid of a bunch of Twilight fanboys/girls that are upset that Ake was given the site. Let them go cut themselves and cry in a corner over a fucking website. Everyone else here has a little thing called REAL LIFE that they have a STRONG attachment to. Your petty threats mean nothing. I do not care about a flame war. I do not care about these other people that are upset because they can't be the top dogs anymore. You should all try going outside once in awhile. Unless you're afraid of talking to people in anything but a virtual aspect.
But I digress.
I'm not afraid of any of you, and neither is anyone here. We are perfectly content to sit back here, and do our thing. You all think you can run a site so well? Why don't you cock juggling thunder cunts merge your vampire ridden, daemon infested websites, into one massive conglomeration of suck.
And is that a threat? Because I see no sword. All I see is text.
"I'm sure it was you that helped kill the older CoL, too!"
I take personal offense to that. I came back from mourning my father to learn that it was down. I did not have anything to do with the downfall of Yuna's site. It is where I got my start in rp'ing and I would never try to do anything to hurt the site.
"We have tiers for a reason. It keeps people fresh out of the academy from beating the everliving shit out of a captain. So, yeah, our system works"
I know about all the tier nonsense and repetitive information. And that is the same idea every Bleach RPG has, so don't just claim your system works, its just more biased.
"Honestly, if you'd even made a half assed try to know the new staff, you'd see we aren't a bad lot.
But you prolly just wanted to be staff, and are bitching at us coz you aren't staff."
No, my friend, I did not want to be staff, for I have a Code Geass site to run along with others. I tried to get to know you people, but it just didn't click.
"Frankly you haven't been on, or tried to offer any contribution to the new guard, and haven't even tried to get to know us."
I tried to when it started, I believe, but the biased system (I still believe it's biased. If I were to make a character, would you take into consideration this thread?) made me angry. On another site, when I heard things about Hikaru...angrier. And finally, this? I have been angrier before, but you people are ridiculous, in my opinion.
"I hope you enjoy being an ignorant sunovabitch as much as I don't give a shit about you, or your point of view since it's likely based on nothing, and this is some fucktarded attempt to advertise some other site (and I'm sure your adds will be lovingly deleted since you wanna be a jackass, and cause emo drama here and we don't like people who try to start emo drama 'round these parts!) as opposed to saying goodbye to a board that, lately you've only done 2 things for, and those are Jack, and Shit."
I wouldn't advertise here, for anything.
When you say or do something bad about one thing, an entire army opposes you. You must stand against these forces until you are no longer able to fight. I will fight on and on about my opinions until my hands fall off.
""experience" does not equal posting/app quality. If you post a shitty app, you get a low tier, or denied regardless. We don't have preference coz we gotta treasure the newblood as much as anyone else that's active. If you have a problem with us not playing favorites, well guess what?! I have 2 words for ya! Fuck you!"
Yes it does. For with experience comes learning and corrections of mistakes. I don't care if you favor one person over another. It's just this site appears to be favoring quantity over quality. I'm not saying only allow people who have had more experience join, no. What I am saying is you don't seem to care if someone has had more experience than the next guy. The next guy might have a more attractive application, but isn't it the quality in the threads that should count towards a rank, not attractive applications?
Edit: I hate Twilight, it's an overrated piece of nonsense.

How is our system biased? Tell me the better system. Go on. Post count? Heavily biased towards power posters and no lifers. Dice rolled stat mods? I suppose, but I never did like it when luck determined my gameplay.
And this "biased" system gave you Byakuya, didn't it? I fail to see the bias. Sounds like you're trying to make issues that don't exist. Oh and things you heard about me? So instead of making formulating your own opinion, you blindly went with the opinions of others.
My ideas. Ake's ideas. Raven's ideas. Kyra's ideas. They all made this site the actual success it is now. Not the teetering tower of fail it was before, and in all previous incarnations. The old site failed time and again for a reason.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again expecting different results.
Your points make NO SENSE. If your application is a quality application it will be graded higher. We don't care if you put 3 pages of history, if the history is absolute shit. Hell if you do the bare minimum and it's really good, you'll get a higher score.
Your logic makes NO SENSE. I don't care how good your previous apps were either. Each one is a clean slate. Each one is judged based on content not who's posting it, ya mook.
As for your melodramatic bullshit. The only reason your ass isn't IP banned is because you amuse me.
No, he wasn't the reason for the whole thing collapsing on itself, the old CoL, with Matt was ruined because of the fact that there was Drama in the site, that wasn't revolved around Tsubine, and i have spoke to Tsubine and the reason he posted this up. I have to say was a good thing. He was speaking up front about you Temple and not behind your back like everyone else would do. If i were you i would praise him for doing this because he had the guts to say all of these things. I don't know any of you really, all of the new people. But that is what i have to say, cause this is inciting Drama. If you wanted to avoid the Drama, then either lock the thread so that noone else can see what he is saying, and its only the admins and Tsubine himself. Or Private message him about this matter. If you argue with him like this, it makes Chain of Life look like its Admins are not professional, no offense, but that's what is looks like if you open this thread up like this.
