  1. Well, I guess I'm crazy too, since I see a lot of useful information in this thread. (I haven't made it beyond PV in niob. Level 200 is a looong way off for me.) %) %) %) One thing I seem to recall from years ago... one of my Clansmen used to play each character up to a certain point. She would try out every build with the female characters and the BM (IIRC). I recall her mentioning the Dagger WE. I didn't notice anything there about Daggers. A very up-close and personal form of combat... I guess her version of "unarmed combat"? (Though daggers are governed by Sword Lore IIRC). There are many very exciting daggers for the WE... or so she told me. Ahhh! There's her name: Catscradle. (Score one for the raiders of the lost archives!! Those bits of your brains that seek out missing bits of information in your... BR A IN S!) Cats really liked her Dagger WE. Rock on Dude!
  2. Wow! Amazing video! Thanks for sharing (and thanks for 50 Million Marks (Deutsch Gold). Makes me kinda want to move out of Gold.
  3. And they don't know they mmmmmmmoooooooooooovee! Cool theme! ===== Now that was weird. I replied to a different thread, and the result ended up here! Congrats to you both for 216!
  4. I'm new here, but I read this in passing and can't hold back. I'm not a lawyer... But my advice is (and it is up to you to listen to it, and/or ignore it): You get points from explaining things objectively. Big points... and this shows that you can *think* about what happened...rather than let your reptile (emotional) brain handle the whole situation. 1) Slurs: bad (this you can action in court) 2) throwing the first punch: very bad (you're guilty of assault in Canada--this leaves you open to charges from the protester) --I sure hope someone has a picture of the sign and the guy in question. And I hope you got witnesses or can get them. 3) The unknown man who choked you could've been a supporter of non-violence (not the slur-guy's friend). We don't know from your description if it was another protester of the same stripe (ie an attack) or someone trying to keep order. Or even an employee of university/college. 4) Campus security tackles you as you subdue (violently) the guy. 5) Hopefully you didn't resist them. Yes they are wanna-be cops... but their job is to intervene in these kinds of situations. If they mistreated you, you might have a case against the college and/or them personally. 6) I recommend you write a letter, detailing your position. Back this letter up with any evidence you can find: photos, eye witness accounts (preferably from college staff if you can get any--you're seeking to have credibility.). Address it to the Dean of college...whoever is in charge. Rationally explain what happened in every instance. Take responsibility (like you have in your post here) for you actions. Explain what you have learned from the experience...how you would handle a situation like this in the future (by reporting it to the authorities in question, not by assaulting someone.) If this does not get you re-instated, then I would pursue the media (local newspapers...local radio.... local TV (too late from video of the assault (from the get-go...that is...when the verbal insults were flying...BEFORE the punch). Also: have you considered legal action against the protester? That is another lever you could use against the college if they consider your carefully worded letter and don't reinstate you. The college would certainly not like to have this matter brought up. The papers would be able to punish them for supporting racism. A big no-no in North America today. And Britain from what I understand. Pretty sure just about anywhere in the 1st world. College level people don't assault people with their fists, they use lawyers, the law and make the people who cross them serve time and lose money. (However, generally, protesters of this ilk have no money to give...just freedom to lose... or a one way trip to the loony bin when their lunacy is catagorically proved.) Looking at it from what things were like when I grew up: my parents never cared for what happened before they got there. They only wanted everything bad stopped. The college wants the same. If you make this a REALLY REALLY BIG DEAL (ie crushing you is perhaps the worst mistake they ever could make) then they'll have to change their position. However, right now, they think they've got the situation contained. It's up to you to prove to them how wrong they are on this issue.
