Huh?

Don't have to explain if it's a personal reason but the announcement seems rather sudden.

Just want to make sure this isn't because of faile dying in the hurt/heal game, right?

Yeah, me too, I was just trying to find a way to get back for you at Rand, it wasn't anything personal and was only supposed to be a joke.

I'm sorry that you feel you need to leave because of that but it's your decision and I'll respect it.

I, and I'll assume the others, did not vote her to try and upset you but because it was part of the game (Like a Mafia lynch).

I hope you'll reconsider coming back, if not immediately then perhaps after a short break, and please know that you'll always be welcome here.

I'm going to go on the record here and say that I did not hurt Faile to upset you. I voted her because she is, and always has been, my least favorite character in the entire WoT series. I would have tried to get rid of her regardless of how you felt about her., because reading the scenes with her makes me want to step into the book and kill her myself.

srsly I always hated faile. gah, blech.

 

I think rj did too to name her fail.

 

but ya, it's a game, and ... well that's all. maybe you'll feel differently tomorrow.

I still argue that Perrin wouldn't have been the character he is without her. 

 

Could she have been different and still helped his progression? Yes. But she is who she is. People are flawed, and so are characters.

Perrin might have remained a well written enjoyable character instead of a doofus Maximus without her and several books of a series I'd loved for years by the point RJ lost the plot might not have been as painful as they were and the increasing time waiting hopelessly for new books where the idiotic plot contrivance of the kidnapping might not represent the years of literary disappointment they do today.

 

But it's nice someone enjoyed it.

Yea I do, which is why I like Faile's storyline. One of the only love stories in the books that actually has some basis (cause otherwise RJ just plain sux at those).

Yes the characters are written how the author intends. It is however up to the individual reader to determine if they like the particular character. Faile was always meh to me. With cringe inducing moments where she manipulated perrin "for his own good" supposedly.

 

If you like her better then fine. You are welcome to your opinion.

Dude, he does suck, and that showed the most between Perrin and Faile.  The only pairings I think I felt fully satisfied with were

 

Nynaeve and Lan

Rand and Aviendha

Just a quick reminder everyone, it's fine to express your opinion, and it's fine if it differs from someone else's, but there will be no personal attacks within this thread.  You can get your points across without insulting someone or their views.

 

Please, carry on.

That wasn't to me right? I try to do this, but I might slip and not realize it.

 

Also, 4444th post!

Tina should have just remembered to put Eggy in and then we could have all had a fun time arguing before she died. Because Eggy Threads go on and on and on.
