I am very sorry I missed the chat last night; I went to sleep at around 1:30 am EST last night.

We have all been feeling on edge lately. I cannot tell you how hard it is for me to do this. I have felt beat up and abused and yes I've have been genuine with everyone in everything I've ever said I do care about all of you regardless of what may have happened.

Let's begin with this whole issue of others not pulling their weight. This issue was first stated in this thread I believe and in my opinion the real issue here comes down to seeing that everyone (the council) really does care about this guild and everyone in it more so than personal aspirations or glory.

The facts and our actions speak for themselves as all of you can see from these forums we have been in heated and passionate discussion since its inception.
I have wanted very much to hear from Haleigh and Jakarta and I think part of the reason we feel that some are not pulling their weight is because some people’s actions are not in line with what they are /telling us.

Prime example of this is Haleighs ALL chan post. While I agree it is something VERY useful to have. It did feel a bit insensitive to me that while we are all waiting to hear from her in some of these discussions that she posts about how [all] was "Most successful rebel coordination rebs ever had, especially for base defense." but failed to credit previous efforts with [base] after I had what I thought was a comprehensive chat with Haleigh about keeping base secure the day I started it. It really felt like a slap in the face.

Ever since you rejoined XEN Haleigh you have done everything in your power to be seen, but have done little to participate in things that have been very important to the rest of us I am not going to even touch this whole wedding issue but I am not an idiot, it is quite obvious that this was all a setup. Oh and btw -sipo is now my new best friend? I mean like things could be a bit more subtle. There is a pattern here. I have given EVERYONE the benefit of the doubt for far too long.

I am certain that there is a lot more going on behind the scenes than I know. I am sick of being manipulated and used it has made me want to quit, and not talk to anyone. This is all about power and control I have no illusions about this.

But, after everything we have been through Larsay and Jachari have done everything within their power to attempt to make this union stronger and to help us move forward. That does say and mean a lot to me.

I must say that resorting to posting hateful things about each other is not the answer. I am sorry I was not available to clear a lot of this up last night but as far as our former guild was concerned we had many meetings and the council did decide on a lot of issues (brought Ha'lies in, the whole falco thing, Jak, the spy issues we had several meetings over, etc..).

I never really thought we had a motto but I wanted to create an environment that was comfortable and beneficial to everyone. Our rules were (after we formed the council) you must be a Rebel, have at least one Elite Mastery and working towards Master Pilot. We were not without coordination or rules. We had weekly events as well.

Now after time of course a lot of things changed (CU,NGE) and a lot of people left the game. We rejoined XEN sometime before the NGE (don't remember the exact date) but the idea was to keep the original ideals of XEN alive, and those ideas were a strong guild that could rely upon each other for everything they needed and could make the Rebel Alliance stronger. We have stayed true to those ideals.

However, our issues go much deeper than this and always come back to trust. Haleigh stated earlier in this thread "We operate on trust, do you not trust me enough to talk to me about any of this? “ There is a problem with this, Larsay brought up to the guild the fact that some are not doing as much as others and that for the council to work more effectively we all must be on the same page and working together towards what we "say" we want. When Haleigh asks Larsay if she does not trust her enough to talk to her it is breaking that trust and violates what has been said by Haleigh in the past “we have learned with this conflict a week ago, problems between guild members should be handled directly between those members involved." This is a guild issue, not an issue with one person while it may seem directed that way this does affect each and every one of us a great deal. Again, there is a pattern here and it is far from the first time it has happened.

Furthermore, I am not backing down, I will not step down and no longer will I allow myself to be manipulated. Yes, there have been MANY times where I should have spoken up and that was wrong of me, but I was attempting to protect others who would undoubtedly be affected.

I will never speak ill of any of you to others regardless of what happens next, it's not right. You cannot expect us to not talk with each other about this though; too many of us are trying to see through the fog still.

I can accept responsibility for my own actions and for my words. But remember, what is said from here on out will be with you forever and comments like that Haleigh I'm sorry to say do not help this situation, you are not being attacked here.

We cannot continue on with things the way they are, there must be change. Too much has happened behind the scenes while some of us have been very forthcoming with our feelings and thoughts only to feel that others are going behind our backs to manipulate situations and our very future. There have been many IMPORTANT issues that have been called out in this thread and have been completely overlooked. That is not fair to any of us or the guild.

It is also not fair for any of us to be going through the hell that we have been through, it certainly has seemed to affect some more so than others and I know there are good reasons for that. After this whole incident with Thras I have felt really out of touch with everyone and since you came back to the guild Haleigh little has changed, and in many ways things have gotten worse. I think I can speak for all of us when I say..We need to heal. We need to know our friends are our friends. We need to know that words have meaning.

I do not want to kick Haleigh from the guild and the three of us (Jachari, Larsay and I) have busted our asses to try to get back some sense of normalcy or to at the very least make sure you did feel the same way that we did.  I fear now we have reached a crossroads were a decision must be made that will no doubt impact the entire server. I do not make this decision lightly.

I think for now, Haleigh it may be best that you leave us for a while until we can get our heads straight. I know this is difficult for all of us, but everyday since our issues were “worked out” it has been something new or some more drama about this person or that person. While I have felt you have ignored the rest of us and what we care about the most, which is each other.

I am an open book here folks, and I say these things here to avoid further miscommunication or manipulation. Some may not agree with everything I have said here but I am speaking from the heart and from what I have seen and been told. If I must go it alone from here on out so be it.

To speak from the heart is very noble and honorable. The heart does not lie. The heart guides us through dark times. The heart also speaks a language that only other hearts hear and allows us to be touched and know when someone is telling you what they feel is right.

I said something that were hurtful last nite. I said them because I was angry. I have given things up myself for this guild... my family. They have done the same for me. No I am not trying to steal anyones credit. Everytime I have been given credit in the past I normally reject it...

I joined XEN because of Haleigh. Though I found myself wanting to stay and grow, and assist anyway possable because of the people that I found here.

This is why I hurt. This is why I cry. This is how it effected me. I hurt like a child who watches their family fight amoung themselves. Intially the try and help. They try and fix things. Then the blame themselves.

It pains me more then you would know to say this... it really does and you can beleive me or call me a liar, it does not matter to me as I know the truth and thats all that matters. Quantum is right. I am sorry Haleigh. I am sorry for the hurtful things I have said, but Quantum, Jach, and Jak are my family too now. I am sorry maybe to you I am like a stepchild/step sibling.

The special thing about family... a real family... is they can turn inward on themselves and need only each other. That is why I love XEN. We can do that. Just not everyone wants to do that right now...

You are not going in it alone. Family does not let family do that.

First off, I'd like to thank you Quantum for having the decency to tell me what you three have been saying behind my back.

While you guys were busy trolling and jockeying for position, my corpse was lying all over the galaxy playing the game as the sole representative of XEN.

Be seen? That is my crime?

And the fact that the wedding was a "setup"?

And Sipo is my new best friend?

Gee, I should be shot, wait I was all week, ask any rebel or imperial for that matter, I died more than anyone while defending that base for 4 straight days and nights, unable to move.

Course you don't know that, you weren't there.

As far as the all channel, Iry was spamming the unsecured overadvertised base channel and I did the best I could, as you had been asking:



Not being attacked? Is the following statement from Larsay yesterday, to say nothing of this entire board, an attack?

larsay: No fuck you... Your a two face liying bitch... You call people in XEN your family... but you dont take in their concerns... you dodge them... You rather go play around with your fucking cyber buddies then help your family. I am sorry these guys have become my family... Family first

That would only be considered an attack if I had said it.

Another thing I don't get: If you really didn't think you were in the wrong, why would you bother to make an ]apology post asking for forgiveness?

After all, you were the victim(s), right?

Quantum, as a former friend of mine, could you at least have the courtesy of kicking me formally from the guild, I promised after you made that short-lived apology post, that I would come back to XEN and that I would not leave.

I would like to go out having kept my word.

I wish you all the best in your future Endeavors.

/salute


P.S. I am online now if you would like to log in and remove me.

You right I said that and that was directed at you out of anger. I have never denied that. Fact maybe rather then making snide remarks yourself you should read my posts:

I was trying to say sorry there. I have reason for my feelings. I thought prehapes we could rise above that and see that. I guess I thought wrong.

I am going to tell you this now... I am going to be very clear with this statement, and I am going to tell you this as a friend...

Stop throwing in everyones face the bases. Quantum pulled at least one almost all nighter at them I know. Jach tries to be at them durring the nites when he can and lag permits. Jakarta has been busy with work, and I have offered my hand everytime I have been on. You Haleigh... YOU told me "No your school is more importaint." You were right, and were telling me this as a friend. Now I feel its a slap in the face personally to me because I was not there and working on school stuff.

I personally know why you set up the new secure channel. One was needed. I also see how people felt it was a slap in the face to their efforts though. People tried to just let bygones be bygones, but these things add up over time.

You talk about people stabbing you in the back, talking behind your back... I am sorry the gloves are off...

You have sat and told me how Quantum is just exstremely paranoid about everything. You tell me how he always feels left out over things because of his paranoia. That often times the way he feels is only because of that and not for any soild reason...

You have told me Jach does nothing but tries to get into the middle of everything and create drama. You told me about how you try not to tell him certain things because of this. Like when you have had problems with in game relationships, he would take the other persons side and tell everyone about it.

Talk about backstabing. You sure as hell have done your fair share, and talk about paranoia... you screenie everything. Thats paranoia right there too.

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
