Name: Jan de Merode Age: 25 Do you presently hold a Commonwealth peerage?: No Are you currently an oathed knight of the Order of the Peterine Laurel?: Yes Are you in good legal standing within the lands of the Commonwealth?: JA

"You're a bit late to the party aren't you?" spoke a proud Batavian Knight of the Commonwealth of Petra as he wandered through the halls of Temesch reading the missive. "Quite a bit very late, actually."

A certain Knight in shining armour penned down his signature with the brightest of smiles! "Long live the Commonwealth!"

Btw don't forget people are acting like this over silly block game from 2011

A certain Batavian man feared for his life at the mere idea of his dearest companian Paul Temesch singing to him.

ENLIGHTENMENT Alyndel was seated within the confinements of newly found home in Nor’Asath. He had always pondered over the meaning of his life, the meaning of the conversations he held, and what his true destiny was. His Ancestors had made big plans for him, that much he was certain of. To those who barely knew him he would often be mistaken for some babbling lunatic. A radical with no true vision for the world, or one with a vision so unrealistic he would simply be considered delusional. Perhaps those closest to him shared a different view. What others thought of him mattered little to him in the end. He knew he would always have the support of his daughters and elders. What was more important than the support of one’s relatives anyways? The Valah he had accompanied himself with in the Orenian House of Commons were all long gone. The ‘Ame, as well as the other Clans he had accompanied himself with in The Pale had long vanished. Clan Morvayn, Clan Indoren and all supporters of what remained of the Renelian dream….they were all gone. The band of like-minded Ashen Folk had shrunk considerably when compared to their glory days in the Empire. Only recently the lost Velulaei’onn were re-united under the banner of the Yl’Asath, a Clan Alyndel founded together with At’ess Renellic. It’s purpose? To reunite the bloodlines of Velulaei, and separate the pretenders from those pure of blood. An artist's depiction of New Magara’lin, Kingdom of Renelia-Gladewynn Alyndel’s opinions on the city-state of Nor’Asath had been conflicted at best. He had always been one to applaud the founding of ‘Ker states. Places for the Ashen Folk to unite, it was a dream that he had been holding on to for centuries now. The Renelian dream was brought back to life. The more he interacted with his now fellow citizens, the more that dream began to seem like a blur. Perhaps he had become jaded due to his time in the Empire….or perhaps the dream really was nothing but a distant memory. Sometimes encounters can leave lasting impressions upon an individual, and Alyndel knew he was able to make one. A shimmer of light within a pitch black darkness had appeared before him. A ‘Ker who Alyndel knew could one day share his vision, and perhaps even help him and his fellow kin pave the way for something truly beautiful. The future of the Ashen Folk lies with its children, who despite being born on a path of sin can be pulled back. The warm embrace of the Ancestors is never far away, if only an individual is willing to reject the sinners in their lives. A house overlooking the Nor’Asath docks, it was quite the change when compared to the forests he had wandered for many years. His cousins, his daughters and all those who were willing to give the truth a chance, would make this pale eye’d Ker’s house a true home.

@HogoBojo @Llir since either one of you are the admins involved a reply would be nice. Ignoring this isn't going to stop anyone from asking about it and quite frankly I've yet to see a valid reason. Don't even give me a "oh why don't you do it" because it is your guys' job to. This has been bouncing between CT excuses and Tech excuses for years and just like the dynamap updates, I feel like it's laziness and not an actual excuse.

wdym bro it's a tech issue you can't possibly expect something that requires insane levels of photoshop prowess to take less than YEARS oh wait it's a forum template and you just have to fill in some stuff and format text mb

I think one of the issues here is that communities like these, regardless of platform (be it a forum, another game, etc) inherently attarct people like this. The main reason is that they can not be assed to ever leave the house and get all of their political and ideological opinions from sketchy FB groups. Although what I have to say is that if cases of homophobia, transphobia or racism aren't actually being reported you can not expect staff to also do something about issues they are not aware of. I'm talking specific cases and not the overal problem, I'm sure everyone is aware LOTC, and as I said similar platforms attract people like this at times. Staff using Discord DM's in cases like this to actively ban people is quite a constroversial topic in and of itself, and I don't know the specifics of your case but I do know that staff tend to be hesitant with bands using Discord evidence. tl;dr Yes lotc attracts awful people Staff can't do anything without proper reports or evidence If staff don't do anything about actual harassment cases then bring it up with admins name and shame if all else fails

Okay but shut up you're literally Dutch

Alyndel wonders how a defensive pact, specifically against another nation is even remotely close to neutrality. Alyndel too wonders why the Elysians do not think this will backfire in any way shape or form. Alyndel decides the politics of Almaris don't matter that much, and he goes back to screaming at other Dark Elves.

**** you got me

All I'm gonna say is that if this happened to someone like DrunkPapaBear half of you people freaking out now wouldn't bat an eye, in fact you'd probably be laughing at the fact. You know it's true, you only care because this happened in your own backyard. Twi got a deserved ban, just because someone is an NL does not give them special priviliges to avoid bans or have bans delayed. Should staff be consistent in their "ooc plotting/harassment" bans? Yes of course, bad apples should be removed from the basket. All I'm saying is a lot of people are insanely hypocritical here. Think twice before throwing a fit, all I can say. Edit: Why on earth should staff provide the evidence used to ban twi in a harassment report when said proof more than likely contains sensitive and private information various individuals involved would not want spread. Tl;dr: Shut the **** up it's a minecraft server stop acting dumb

Okay but you're still on the forums (I love Nozgod)

"Heh, how curious....another collection of mutts, or the start of something grand for our kin?" A pale eye'd 'Ker mused, preparing to seek out his fellow Velulaei'onn once more.

@bickandowhen are we going on..

@Fionn__TWG hey remember that aoe2 game that was fun wasn't it
