With one, I look like a power hungry asshole who can't take criticism, even with my personal reasons. I lose all the players who are essential to the RP. With the other, every suggestion could potentially be harrowed, with no actual suggestions to counter mine but still solve the problem.
Sigh.
I want to say this. This universe, for all it's flaws, is one of my most developed ones, that's why I care so damn much about it. This is why I want to fix the Avali. This is why I thought up the hypernet, and psionics, and redid the story in an attempt to make it interesting again.
For all the "me me me" that I sound like, sharing is one of my greatest joys. I wanted you all to be happy in a universe I shared with you, so I could be happy. That is why stuck with the RP, even as the stress got problematic. When other people cared about the world, and acted with it, genuinely roleplaying with what I shared, I was happy.
But I refuse to give an imperfect gift. That's why I wanted your opinion, to fix it. But what can I do? I get someone who refuses to have a change to a mascot. But I can't leave them. Out of place, powered beyond what even the major races carry, and have no right to just be a straight lift from the source with all the other species having unique backgrounds and beliefs.
I don't think I can say it in a way where I don't sound self-centered. I can only be honest. I wanted everyone to play, so they'll be happy, so I share, and I'll be happy.
I wasted so many nights in writing the original. I sound like an asshole for saying it was for everyone else, but if I didn't care about anyone else, I wouldn't have tried.
Shaad's right. I can't take a single bit of criticism without blowing up. I can't solve a universe if I can't solve relations.

oh god did i set this off... i... i am sorry i... i never said my character was insanely powerful... i always stated that Coro was considered a god in her homeworld.. though its also stated that a god is nothing more than a being with great affinity for a particular aspect of what they do.. which due to the nature of this new world was severly weakened to a intense level when she used such abilities.
For those that were not part of the old RP and wishes for a list of things Coro did and what is gonna change for vets... i decided to put them here hold onto your butts... cuz this is gonna be a doozy:
Crap hit the wrong button still writing this.
