No, you didn't "make it different." Literally all you added was that people could get sent to solitary. I would most definitely consider this similar enough to mine that it is not yours. If anything, you simply reworded it. This is not 'your' story. This is my story that you're trying to take ownership of because you can't handle the biggest part of it. If you hate such an important plot point, go make your own original story without monsters. Keep in mind I can also say that you can't make another RP of this, since this is my property and is siilar enough that it can be considered copying. This is not your property, and claiming my stuff sure isn't helping your 'not a slimeball' point.

Espen's being a jerk because she doesn't like that I brought in the main plot point. She's claiming that I can't do that because apparently reboots now are the same as original works.

I didn't claim anything. I just asked permission, got it, and made this rp.
I didn't say remove all monsters. I said remove the animal ones that you stated could be tamed. Makes 0 sense.
I never wanted your rp- wanted to be owner- or wanted the story. I wanted to continue the story's basis in my own way.
The fact you are acting like this is just childish. All I asked was that we remove a small thing that doesn't take away from the story. And you instead of just saying " Well, how about I just do this instead of that " wanted to argue with me and go so far as to bring law into this.
Also yes I can indeed make a similar one to this and call it mine. The title "sick" with the bluefield story is yours, yes. But if I myself wanted to make a story similar with monsters of my own writing I could because many people could of already done the same thing.
And this is just a rp! If you don't like how I did it in the first place tell me " Can you just remove this rp? "

I didn't bring in law into this. I brought in quotes that happened to do with law, because it shows that there have been situations where somebody has gotten permission and somebody has wanted to take that permission away. And claiming that you didn't want the rp is a pretty big lie. If you didn't want it, you wouldn't be trying to fight the owner of the content. The animals can be tamed because they were always planned to be that way. And I was fine with how things were going, until you decided otherwise. I am aware you can make a similar one- as long as it's not blatantly obvious that you're just being petty, I can't stop you. Quiet with the talk of "I was being an innocent little angel but then you turned into Satan", because that's not true and I'm quite sure you're already aware of this. I'm protective of my content, and you came across as incredibly passive-aggressive even from the start.
If nothing else, then if you want so badly to have a different RP, go make a different RP.

I kind of am not..
Most of the time when someone asks permission to use something of another person the person doesn't hover over the users shoulder and suddenly when they do something the original person did not like they want to fight it. While I understand the original is yours and that one can be protective of it, you could of taken this so many other ways other then flipping so quickly and stating the second I wanted something to change that-
" Just because I gave permission doesn't mean this is yours. "
If I had wanted it to me mine, I wouldn't of contacted you what so ever and just remade it giving no credit to the person who originally did it. I know this was yours, I know this isn't my idea, but I also know that although I wanted it to be the same story I wanted to make my own thread and continue it in my own way while still giving a nod to the original creator.
Thus, I came to you asking for a reboot and not suggesting ways to revive the original thread.
I never played angel, I simply played calmly. You came on as very aggressive, when you could of very easily PM'ed me about this, said calmly that what if we just made a compremise on the creatures, many ways of doing it differently.
I wasn't being passive aggressive. What is passive aggressive is even though I asked permission to take the original story, give credit, and make my own of it- you still insist on saying " Well, I did this so you could use it, but it's mine. "
While I understand it's your story. You very well could of taken a different approach.

I didn't say you were being passive aggressive. I said you appeared to be so. If you're going to tell somebody you don't like something, insulting it is a really great way to tick people off. I am very protective of what I make, and when somebody says something I've made has been "thrown out the window" I don't exactly enjoy it. Could I have taken a different approach? Yes. But I was ticked off, and my first instinct was to protect the thing I created. All I want is for my story to be my story. If you wanted things to be your way, you could've asked to make an alternate version of the story. Because, in my opinion, using the word reboot is a bit misleading. A reboot is like giving something a fresh coat of paint. Making things look or be newer, but changing little to nothing about the content itself. A reboot is not necessarily a remake, but when it is there is not much changed there, either. What you should have said was a spinoff. That would have given me an accurate idea of what your actual plan was. I would've been fine with a spinoff, if you'd told me that's what it was going to be. Though you insist that it isn't, the monsters and their capability of being tamed is extremely important, as I have already stressed. In a spinoff, maybe this isn't the case. In a reboot, this concept stays. If you want a spinoff, go make a spinoff. This reboot is not a spinoff, and I refuse to let it become one.

It was never stated in any version- context- or anywhere that it was a main point.
If it was it should of been stated so the roleplayer would know whats going on. The character can be played as not knowing but the roleplayer should know themselves.
The way you wrote it all I could gather is-
1. There are monsters killing people
2. They are deadly
3. Bluefield is keeping them safe
Because it was the context given from my point of view.
I just said I wanted permission to reboot the story- A reboot can still change the story.
Such as the movie "Thing" ( I think it's the name ) although it was rebooted and the main story *Base in the arctic with a creature that kills* remained the same. The creature although the same in general- and the events similar- the overall movie was different BUT similar enough to be able to tell that is was the same movie.
Which was what I had meant by reboot.
So, I am incredibly sorry my context was mistaken. If you'd like to make a compromise- we can. If not, may I ask to make a similar RP to this and you can keep this thread?

You can make a similar RP. However, if you do so, it needs to be at least partially different. For example, maybe making it have only one thing (ie only a mental institute or only a hospital instead of both), or having the place be run differently. It's just in case I join (I probably won't, since it'll be similar, but idk), so we don't end up in another argument like this.

Eh.. I was going to go for a farm that happens to be a very haunted burial ground with monsters.
More like a camp for those with mental disabilities that people are sent to so they recover.
Thank you for coming to this compromise. I am sorry I was being rude.
