House Philips Rest 4 War Donation I don't have a coat of arms so here is a drawing instead "The war rages on, consuming both people and supplies. Therefore, it is our duty as citizens to supply the army with whatever it needs to both thrive during wartime, and then be maintain during peacetime." - Iulius Vernhart, Patriarch of House Vernhart-Vuiller The rest of the letter is a pat on their back for all they donated to the cause. While the commoners outside the walls of Vienne do not have as much mina as the noble houses of Haense, we have a work ethic second to none. So with that in mind I present my list of donations for my own personal atta boy. Items donated: 4254 Bales of hay 704 Whole chickens 448 Mutton chops 320 Pork chops 192 Steaks 63 Cookies (I got hungry on the way to donate) Signed, Jakkir Atmorice of Philips Rest 4

I've seen you hostile. You're good 1. That still doesn't answer my question. Assuming the accusations are true. Not trusting admins is not reason enough to give out information that could cause someone with genuine concern of retaliation...retaliation for making the the report. B. So do what I did and proof it before posting with the person you're posting for.

Alright I will admit I should have said most people instead of making broad generalizations about everyone being up in arms. Like I said before staff makes mistakes they are human, but to assume they as a collective target players purely out of spite with CVG is unreasonable. Why do we as the playerbase deserve to see any evidence? And the way around being forum banned is have someone post on your behalf. You and I both posted for Narthok a few times during one of his numerous bans.

Let's try to stay on point. Simple fact is we as a whole will not get to see the evidence nor do we need to.. I agree the OOC stuff is shaky but if the accusations are true, the safety of the playerbase is what should be considered. Everyone is up in arms because they want to be up in arms. This is the way.

Jakkir reviews the self proclaimed atta boy. "Well good for them, someone should thank them."

Everyone seems focused on one point, the hostile takeover. The OOC plotting is what everyone does. Staff has said time and time again that discord is not considered rp. So when you get raided and ping everyone to get on to defend the city that by the definition of what staff says is OOC meta. Now I am focusing on the wrong point. What people should focus on is whether or not Twi was actually harrassing/threatening people. This is a game and should be treated as such, for enjoyment. If there is someone who is taking this to a level where people do not feel safe on a platform designed for entertainment staff has every right to step up and remove the offending party. Everyone keeps screaming about where is the proof of harrassment? What right is it of the entire playerbase to see it? It would only lead to more targetting, harrassment and threats. I have seen people saying that they are in the city government or they are good friends with Twi as justification. Who cares? If Twi was doing what they are accused of, shouldn't you have known and stopped it? From the other side, anytime someone was banned under my tenure on moderation an explanation was offered, a hint of evidence; something more than just CVG and done. I also do not know if anything was discussed with Twi, not my place. Staff is not infallible (Odin knows I made my share of mistakes) and both parties require a platform to be heard on. Should it be a public platform like the forums to post it on? Not for me to decide. If Twi wants a post why not share it with a mod or admin for some sort of review for "sensative" info and post on their behalf, or roll the dice and just post on their behalf? tl/dr I lost my train of thought somewhere in the vomit of words above

Do we face reality or create it?

Freebuild is a nightmare to manage and rarely produces any rp

I have hidden 5 posts already. Next person to post a non rp post can enjoy the warning points that come with it.

A Letter to Daniel VI Issued Spring 1733 To the esteemed Pontiff of the Canonist Church. With the recent influx of Canonist Renatians into my demesne, I find myself obliged to tend to their unique religious needs. As such I request the inclusion of my Duchy within one of your existing diocese. Or perhaps the conception of an entirely new diocese. The realm of Morsgrad, being a primarily fatherist realm there are unique issues and challenges herein that your average priest or bishop will find opaque and unconquerable. To that end I would suggest a preemptive balm to this most troubling dilemma. Within my realm are a number of eager young scholars who have taken well to the unusual circumstances they find themselves in. Aptly navigating the streets of the city and resolving conflict where they find it. These young scholars have expressed interest in a vocation of faith. Thus I request that they be educated at a seminary of your choice and returned to us. To tend to the religious needs of the Renaii dwelling within Morsgrad. In exchange I am willing to offer an annual tithe of Nordish marks and manpower. Regards and respects, Godric of Morsgrad

Jakkir Atmorice reads the note, brought to him by a small black cat curled up on his lap. He absent mindedly scratches the feline's ears. "At least I still have you old friend." He says mournfully, throwing a now empty wine bottle into his campfire.

For the last time...Howdy! Let me begin with who I am. I am a father of 2 wonderful children, during my tenure as a moderator I expanded that to the playerbase. I went out of my way to treat everyone fairly and with respect. If you were pleasant during a modreq I would abuse my pex and give you cake. If someone mentioned in OOC they were having a bad day I would reach out to them either by pm or discord to talk to them. It did not matter to me what nation they were from because to me they weren't an orc or a human, they were an actual person. As are you dear reader. Fast forward from when I joined the team to about a month ago. A player had reached out to me asking if I had time to talk. They told me of issues they were having and I listened, offering advice where I could. We ended the conversation on a good note and they seemed to be feeling better. Over the next few weeks I had checked in on them a few times just to make sure things were still going well. This person's significant other took offense to this and messaged me the names of my children. This morning the situation was resolved, did I believe I or my family was in any danger? Of course not but I did have a wake up call. If my being who I am on this server would directly impact my family...is it worth it? Simple answer no. With this situation I have come to realize while most people do not, some take this game far too seriously and take their irp hatred way to far. So I'm stepping down and leaving the server. I am fighting a losing battle trying to help the players that do not want to be helped and I'm tired. To the person responsible for my epiphany, I am much better at the internet than you. I will not name you but I will let you know that I do know you were picked up by the police for possession 8 months ago and that your junior year yearbook photo you are wearing a blue polo with 2 white stripes on it. To my former team, we are staff but remember we are not better than anyone else. We are players with more responsibility to be an example. To every one else. It's been real. Tldr. I rambled, I'm leaving, treat each other like human beings please. Mods if you feel the information I shared is doxxing please ban me accordingly.

Moved to The Great Library. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly. If you feel this is a mistake, please contact myself or any FM and we'll restore it.

What a wonderful dream

"I cannae be sure bu' I think is somethin bout Haelunor" Xalid muses.

Thalen mimics his mother's nod unaware what the scribbles on the paper mean.

Xalid sits at his desk enjoying a glass of Mournstone mead. “Think I will throw my hat in the ring.”

Former friends and to whom I thought were my family. In light of recent events and opinions made public rather than addressing them civilly and with whom it concerns, with a heavy heart I Xalid hereby tender my resignation as mayor of Nordengrad and renounce my claim as an Arden. I wish the Earldom the best and earnestly hope you will prosper in the coming years. With this letter I also bequeath ownership of my stables to the Mournstone clan as they are the only clan that refrained from stabbing me in the back. May the stables profit you as they have myself. I will cut this letter short before I lose my civility.
