A ronin (浪人, rōnin?) was a samurai with no lord or master during the feudal period (1185–1868) of Japan. A samurai became masterless from the ruin or fall of his master (as in the case of death in a war), or after the loss of his master's favor or privilege.
According to the Bushido Shoshinshu (the Code of the Samurai), a samurai was supposed to commit oibara seppuku (also "hara kiri" – ritual suicide) upon the loss of his master. One who chose to not honor the code was "on his own" and was meant to suffer great shame. The undesirability of ronin status was mainly a discrimination imposed by other samurai and by the daimyo (the feudal lords).
Like regular samurai, ronin wore their two swords.
During the Edo period, with the shogunate's rigid class system and laws, the number of ronin greatly increased. Confiscation of fiefs during the rule of the third Tokugawa shogun Iemitsu resulted in an especially large increase of ronin. During previous ages, samurai were easily able to move between masters and even between occupations. They would also marry between classes. However, during the Edo period, samurai were restricted, and were above all forbidden to become employed by another master without their previous master's permission. Also, low-level samurai, often poor and without choice, were forced to quit or escape their master.

You just gotta get in the right crowd. I don't hardly even talk to the group that invited me anymore. They're all profits and such. I don't bother rating them when they beg so they don't talk to me on here. They do on Myspace though, go figure.
I don't ask for anything on here. oddly people give stuff to me for not asking. Personaly I don't really care about all the games. I lose my VIP tomorrow night, oh well. I never asked for one in the first place.
I don't know, that's the way most are on here. I've never even made a single friend request on this site because of it. All my friends on here requested me. after warming up to me. Anyway, trucks running. I might be gone for a while. ttyl
It's like the new kid at school. every body gives you a hard time to test you to see where you fit in. Most of my friends'll tear you appart to see where your heart is.And without a salute you're just another fake profile to most on here. I gotta go freeze and run errands. ttyl.
Bout what? Why I get blocked? Because of people who post mumms and don't want tohear what other oppinions are out there. When they block me it tells me just how shallow they really are.
Oh Yea! Some asshats post mumms with their minds already made up. They get all butthurt if you don't agree with them. I'mcurrently at 42 blocks. My friend Bounty Hunter is almost to 1000. He was tring to hit it by new years, he may be there now he was real close.
