Leaking Pipes and Pads + Marching Festival!

Well, it's been a day since my last forum post. Who knows, maybe this whole blog thing might get further than I expected.

It seems my writings have been leaking more than pipes in a cheap motel sink. My #FFWiki logs were leaked out earlier this week, and now someone managed to backtrack my user name (I think) to find this blog. And even better, it got spread all throughout my old channel. Lovely, isn't it? Well, since I don't want this blog to turn into the place to dig up DTN's secrets and statements to use against him, I'm going to take a page out of Hyperbole and a Half's book--or rather, blog--and add overly childish artwork. Hooray!

Scandalous Wiki

Let me begin this blog post by saying welcome to Rants from Beyond the Door. The need for an outlet of my emotions has led me to the creation of this blog, mostly brought on by the drama that occurs at the wiki I contribute to, as well as my stressful school life. Alright, now let's get to the serious stuff, if this is at all what could be called "serious."

I've learned that I'm not perfect in any respect. I can be rude, I've lied, and I'm responsible for many other things that I'm not particularly proud of. But I think that I started seeing how unforgiving and judgmental people can be this summer. The wiki I work at, the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, had an IRC channel. Finally, as a channel operator, I announced my departure from that channel in July, no longer able to deal with the idiocy, incompetency, ignorance of rules, and the flood of young'ins there. So I left, and went to a new channel just weeks later. This channel was the IRC channel of our neighbor wiki, the Final Fantasy Wiki. Very few users who tormented and abused me on my former channel dual-channeled here, so I felt safe. I knew the general community here, and it was a much more mature one. I was able to unwind here, and didn't feel like I was babysitting users as I had been.
