FACESFORCE'S PROFILE

So... I found out that the TSA will not let you load several boxes filled with knives and swords onto a plane without a handling permit (Bloody red tape, who would have guessed). I'll just drive in the morning instead, and make it there by 2 am instead.

Hmm... Trying to make a tactics simulator with the varibles in rm2k. This turned my first project about building a bandit army way out of control, and the gameplay was broken.

That, and using the rtp music.

Sorry Facesforce but this is even more unbeleivable!

Well... I am infamous for being a bit dense and a airhead, so the thought I could have avoided it did not come to mind, let alone to read the body posture of anouther. That and I read while I walk, so I walk into people a lot.

I have great news, I will be heading to flordia for a few days on work. Fun! I love being near the ocean.

For some reason, I feel my incredulity meter tripping. Maybe the police just looked the other way due to your serfs forking over that 320 dollar bribe? Or maybe this is just advertising for the blade shop you work for, or your knife fighting classes?

No, self-defense classes are closed and the blade shop only goes on commissions... It is more like a arangement where I act as a salesman for a local blacksmith whom runs the actual shop, thus why I am always traveling and never can get to my cosey apartment in Jamestown.

Pah, if my grandfather bribed them just to prove a point to me... Well fuck it, I moved to the states to get away from him, and those people that followed him. I was just trying to explain with a story from the past that in that case, be forceful as hell.

@Max: Good idea, Rotterdam sucks and is ruled by whomever has cash.

Martain Luthar king day...? I never heard of it. I'll just go and look it up... Oh and work was slow as usual, not a single damn commission since the last guy whom ordered a couple of throwing knives in the town over, only for me to have me now fixed coralla throw a belt stranding me there during a snowstorm. Thank god I am finally at home.

Natook, there is a chance of that where ever you go; Here in rural Tennessee it is common for fueds and gunfights to break out in the middle of the street, and not due to gangs; Families and men protecting thier honor. However, the cops normally come and sort it out, but even majority of the police in some small towns respect the tradition of duels, despite it being clearly outlawed.

The key is if you are dealing with just rampant fueds or gangs, as the crime of the city is much different then the fighting among clans like their are here. However, if you do move there, I would advice you to learn melee weaponry, ideally a combat knife on you at all times. At least that way you can fight for your own self-defense and if necessary, kill anyone whom attacks you. That way you can be safe at the least.

You would be surprised how much a insane smile, while you slash the face of the man whom just tried to shoot you can throw off a opponent and induce fear in their mind. When I lived in Rotterdam, I was attacked by four to six men at the age of 16, all of which somehow managed to catch me taking a short cut through a back alley from my favorite cafe. At first I co-operated with them and gave them my wallet, but when it became clear that they were going to execute me, for some reason I smiled like a lunatic and drew the combat knife out of the sheath that I had hidden behind my backpack and promptly slashed the right eye of the main attacker in the hoodie he wore. After that, I am ashamed to admit, but I proceed to stab another man whom then tried to disarm me in the arm, all the while laughing like crazy. I am ashamed to say that I enjoyed the feeling of fighting for my life a little too much, and I continued my maniac slashing at the men until I managed to get the handgun out of the first man's hand, and twisted around and forced him to the ground with his own gun pointed to the back of his head. It was only seconds after this fray did the other men run, and I proceeded to kick the man until I knew he had to have broken a couple of ribs, dropping the gun about ten feet or so away from him and walked on my way. The police there are a joke, and it was not like they gave a damn, even if I was covered in bruises where one man managed to get in a couple of hits with his brass knuckles, and being splattered with the blood of the men I had slashed in defense. All though, I do wish I did not enjoy that encounter as much as I did...

All I am really trying to say is that if you do move to a area where people get killed ofter indiscriminately, do not be afraid to fight back with lethal force; It will save your life more then just pussyfooting around. So, try to find a better place to live. I am sure you do not want to be able to have skeletons like that in your closet, even if it was just self-defense.
