First: I offer my condolences

Second: Posting in a possible epic thread

Metro, it is important that you give us further details in order for us to fully appreciate your position.

We can agree that house liao has the most to gain but you must fully communicate vital information to us.

Perhaps private messages would suit you better.

Let those who are most capable of assisting you, assist you

Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity

Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Easy, no
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that but he's broke
He's so stagnant, he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo
This whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

The soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a new world order
A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, homie grows hotter
He blows. It's all over. These **** is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
His **** don't want him no more, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada

I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed
I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhyming and stepped right into the next cypher
Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cause man, these ******* food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard, and it's getting even harder
Trying to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screaming on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only ************* option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go it's my shot.
Feet fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got


You can do anything you set your mind to, man

Metro, apologies on the travel & circumstances. Really. That sucks.

But, you know how many of us knew you were gone? I personally had no idea and I bet I'm not alone.

I stand by any posts of mine that are still standing on your site. Clearly, others didn't like them. And I saw a bunch of my friends get lied about by guys you did or didn't leave in charge.

I have been very active in MMOs since 1992. I was a front commander in EGA MPBT with over 100 people in my front in 1992-94. I've been an officer repeatedly, and actually, I'm still an officer in another MMO. I've been an XO, an HL, and a grunt. I know the genre. I also know nonsense and egomaniacs when I see them.

One of your guys' leadership skill is to throw others under the bus to help himself and his pals. He gets called out on it (and I called him on it, perhaps too hard, and I was accused of puffing out my chest and no apology would be forthcoming to the guy that was slighted), the facts of the posting prove it, and then a dozen people get ejected on trumped up charges to sustain a fictional story. You know it's nonsense, I know it's nonsense, and many others that think for themselves know it's nonsense.

My ban on the site shows it was for insubordination - that's not even true. I said the admin should ban me because I was going with my friends after they were booted, this after I posted what a gross mischaracterization the entire mess was. I'm banned a year from the site. I can say this - if the same leadership structure is staying in place, make it forever.

Metro, no offense, but you are the one that must be responsible for this situation - the buck has to stop with you on that site. You have to clean it up in whatever fashion you deem fit. What you do next will speak volumes.

Chiun,

thanks for the info.

As I have told everyone who has bothered to contact me directly,

Quote

"As I was not directly involved in any of the BS/shenanigans you all chose to participate in the past few weeks , you all figure out how you will all proceed.

Everyone should be ashamed at their behaviour and how they have all chosen to handle the situations.

I certainly am glad I am not in a foreign country in a fox hole with any of you."

The buck stops.... way over there...

Amazing show of leadership here, everyone knows that the sentient being in charge is never accountable for the actions of those they leave in charge when away. We all can take lessons from this amazing show of true leadership from House Liao's fiat leader.

Hopefully he will show us how to burn, rather than build, bridges next. All leaders know to ruin every inroad to creating a more harmonious unison amongst all interested parties. We here at the Word of Lowtax can learn a great deal from this kind of pioneering leadership from our non-feathered brethren. We wish all the best to Metro and his cadre of talented underlings that teach us new ways to lead everyday.

Sincerely,

Halfinax. <SQUAWK>

If we can all have extra threads to advertise our websites I'd like to advertise my group as well.

The Free World's League Military at www.house-marik.net claims no leadership of House Marik, the FWL government, or any planet there of. However, we do thank you for the honor of sharing this electronic space and combating robots. We feel it is best to focus on a union of units and only enact an absolute minimum of umbrella leadership because we see no authentic or effective use for such leadership, plus no reason to follow anyone who leads from an armchair instead of a mech-couch.

Well Said. and you may speak for many. Cause many have been silenced. including myself.

It is a shame, this all took place, and for what? what did it gain? and what did we all lose.
I had great fun in the ealry days and we did have many great drops, so many great times and made some great friends,

Metro, Max. I thank you for that.

I have heard rumors about who will be the fall guy for all this.
lets take a poll.

And so we move on. yet another chapter in the corruption in our House. Candace has told us of this, and warned us. She was 100% right.

Us that fight for Liao are here and always will be.

Leaders come and go. get removed or worse. but the Liao's People have always been here.
and always will be.

For the People of Liao.
and those who fight for her!

Forever Unlited!

Life is full of trials and tribulations. I would say copy pasting an Eminem song is one of the hardest. My condolences go out to JadeRaven and his family during this time of sorrow and hardship.

There is only one pretend House Liao, and Metro is the pretend leader of it. He deserves your pretend respect.

Haven't we been pretending all along?

[Literally]

So I've been with family for the past few days, and I love my family, but I'm almost sad I got in on this thread so late. It seems there's been some . . . strife? The drama level here is just getting way out of control, so let me give the OP a little help on his style, a la Strunk. Actually, it's more basic than that.

Firstly - Those not directly involved with the CCAF membership and its endeavors, should first off refrain from impaling themselves on a pole of idiocy and stupidity.

Please re-read this sentence. Your statement implies that the leadership of "CCAF" are the only ones who have the right to impale themselves on their poles of idiocy and stupidity. I guess I agree with you?

metro, on 09 July 2013 - 02:55 PM, said:

Secondly - there are at least 2 dozen (for you that failed math = 24),CCAF members and former that are involved in causing a massive uproar over simple issues.

Actually what you mean is >= 24, since you said "at least". The actual issue, however, is that your very very much internal off-site forums drama does not belong here. We keep seeing people here on the official forums looking for a new home because of drama in their former home forums, but now you are coming here to call out people over your interal issues? That's rude, it's improper, and it's impolite. If you're having a fight in whatever forums you host, you don't come here to accuse people. No one has done that to you!

Ashame, a person cannot take an 11 day, 5,000 mile road trip to tend to an ailing family member, without those with personal agendas and egomaniacs acting as if they were somehow mistreated in the bar brawl they started.

So thank you all for the welcome home

It absolutely is a-shame. My condolences to your family; family comes first, and you did the right thing by making a trip to care for whomever needed it. Now who is this "you all" who welcomed you home? It wasn't anyone here on this forums. So why in the world are you bringing all this negative anger and accusations to these forums? It sounds like your "personal agenda and [egomania]" is being brought to the wrong place.

If you are a part of the leadership back where this drama is taking place, then have the good graces to not air your dirty laundry in public.

[Smokeyjedi]

Well it doesn't really surprise me that after months of turning lil chirpy bird mechs into piles of smoking scrap metal, they have given up on their attemps at actual conquer.....Now they know we are too much to handle and will try to divide us from the inside. Its almost flattering......thank you Lowtax your anguish and desire to pursue this feeble attempt @ HouseLiaos command structure is warming my heart. Somebody loves us.

[Ken Fury]

Please go on.
