OOC: Grrrr, darn browser made me have to type this all up again.

Chirpy, I would be very careful about treading where you seem to be going right now. It seems to me that if you aren't taking control of the RPG now, you're sitting right on the edge of attempting to do so. If you do some backreading of the RPG, you'll see that so far every attempt to make some "big danger threat" has been severely frowned upon. We don't need big disasters and terrorists to make a good storyline for an RPG.

Also, I find it incredibly annoying when people try and make their characters "super superior." I'll use Splat's Stivik as a good example here, look at Stivik's profile and actions, he's a special slig, with special skills, and a special job, not to mention an unusually large amount of intelligence for a slig, but he still fits into the RPG fine, without any show offs or grandiose effects. And I believe the main reason for this is because he is treated as a normal character. Special skills and powers are great, but remember, you're character is still just a character, like everyone else's.
I feel that you need to stop trying to grab everyone's attention so much, or you may find yourself with more attention than you bargained for, of the wrong sort! Just let the story flow, stop trying to push it in your direction.

To all the other RPGers, I apologize if you disagree with anything I've said, or if any of it is incorrect, but I really need to make my frustrations clear.
