You are ofcause, welcome to join the Clan. Please refrain from doubble posting though. It's uncommon a mod will step in, but it's not soposed to be done, it bumps the thread above other clan's threads who are obaying the rules, which is good for us. Bad for them, plus it isn't the best look when a staff member DOES step in.
Thank you so much! I'm sorry about that. I didn't realize. I kinda just joined the forum recently and I'm not all that big into forums in general, so I'm kinda ignorant on reading rules posts and stuff.
1) We can't do much about that unfortunatly, the equipment the server is run on is powerful but it seems the server host isn't too reliable when updates come out.
2)I see your point on this one and generally links to the first point, being unable to go on the server can be the pinnacle of feeling not very useful and going inactive.
3) I once again agree with this one entirely, it just seemed to be a lot of bickering and failing to achknowledge any points the other sides might have brought up. I think it's gone now but might end up being brought back up later. (For both the kicking of a council member and the political system.
I do hope you come back soon though, you seem to be a dedicated member is some ways.
EDIT: I have 1200 posts?
The double post didn't seem too bad, all that needed to be said was "Use the edit button next time"
I know how you feel Boom :smile.gif: Going from a semi-quieted down clan to now it's either people not agreeing with one another and focusing on the simple tasks at hand, members are sitting around waiting to be told what to do or how they can help.
If you ever get bored, come visit me and Ace on Lotro :smile.gif: have an ale, take a load-off.

Edit: I am not legal to drink. Maybe if my parents aren't home :tongue.gif:
About the loadoff, will be hard. I have two to four tests EVERY DAY for school this week. 8's (B's in English terms) should be good enough with such a stress.
What is this 'Lotro' you are speaking of?
L.O.T.R.O.= the abbreviation of Lord of The Rings Online. Coming from a past of many mmos (including 5 years of WoW :sleep.gif:) I call LOTRO my home since it has everything that a Role-Player wants. I like to get up to the high-leveled player status, then have some fun :smile.gif: and with LOTRO I can do basically anything I want; drink some ale with some companions at a Inn or Tavern, smoke some pipe-weed while listening to a bard play some music or play some music myself. It's my fun time and I like it. Tonight, my kin along with some others will be attending one of the biggest events in LOTRO at the time, Ales & Tales. Not sure if I'm going to have to be playing a Lute solo tonight, however it should be fun :smile.gif: then i believe Thursday, the day after my birthday, another kin will be hosting a "Walk to Rivendell" from Bree, which is an extensive walk (2 hours). Usually we have around 50-100+ people showing up for this event so it should be fun.
I totally agree with you 100% Boom on the subject of characteristics that people hold. In my eye, there are 3 different types of people: the one-sided (I only do things my way, your way is wrong for me), the negotiator ( That sounds like a great idea! What if we did this as well? What do you think?) and then people like me, the mmo player (...it's a game? lol it's not meant to be so complicated and argumentative). :biggrin.gif: so thats how I feel about the whole discussion.
So it's kinda like a "This many people joined so we should have it implemented?"
Interesting idea to get recognition for something, I'll just be watching to see if it works.
EDIT: yay! page 160! 159 was annoying me due to the fact a massive quote of the first post was there and made it annoying to find specific posts.
Yes, indeed, that's one way to think about it. I'm not intending to try to force the hand of the Council with this, certainly not with (2) people. If that ends up being considered in such a way, I will be glad indeed, as it means this will have been successful in terms of people who are interested. Also, Does that mean you don't rike my idea?

Umm, did I miss something in the past few days ? I didn't know that creating a new structure of government, or coming up with ideas for it, would involve a "sign up now and get a free title/rank" policy.
First off, Why did you quote me with a Skeleton? Seems a tad Hostile.
Secondly, I'm not trying to institute a system of government. There's no need for that with (2) people. This is merely a sort of method to catagorize those who are interested in this Idea. And I've spoken at length about only giving official titles to those who truly deserve them, See remarks on Honor. ATM, it's more of a way to see if people would like a title, or not. See if people want to be *completely* "Equal". (I for one, do not like Total, conditionless Equality.). If this idea ever gathers enough steam for there actually to be issues regarding titles, e.g. "Omg, Dere's like 59 peps wid' titlez." , "Hay... The guy wid diplomat title eez Troll." , Etc, I would happily head an accreditation bureau to see who should keep titles, who should loose them, and who should gain them.

Put me up for water please Fion!
If I don't add you within 20 minutes of posting this, send me a mail- . God, I think i'll save the list to a document on my Dtop, and simply Copy+Paste applicants into it. So inconvenient to have to find my post over and over again. Of course, then i might slack off on editing the post, so people would see only (2) people on it, and go "Meh".
Big thanks to darkfire et all for making & posting the trailer. First i heard of it was when it was posted to youtube XD
If you have any suggestions, PM me with them, as i am currently working on a new version in AS3 (Flash), which will work on all operating systems :biggrin.gif:

I had a chat with the shipboard computer...
It hates me.
I never said I don't like the idea, I think it is a good way to get attention and advertise an idea that the council may otherwise overlook. Of course right now it is more of an unofficial system that is placed there to say "Sign up to it to show your support for the idea" rather than an actual thing that is actively enforced.
Greeting Circle, I am just checking out clans and I was wondering if you are accepting new recruits? If you are I wish to join. I am a friendly and wonderful builder, I like to help out where I can, and a year ago when I was still playing classic I made a vow to myself to never destroy anybody's creations unless I have permission from the owner of it. The main reason I wish to join is that I had just quit a clan that was falling apart and I felt homeless after that.

Sorry for the sudden drop in activity, something happened in my life to cause me to have tons of stress and well, I need a few more days away from the clan.
This reminded me, are we having a meeting this weekend?
Cool going to go check it out now.
I haven't heard if we're having a meeting or not.
Re-Edited Later-On: Okay so I just checked out the page thread, and I have some concerns about the "Clan of Many Names", but I'll wait for the next meeting to bring them up further.
I hope your stress and turnoil turn to joy and happiness soon Magix :smile.gif: get better!

I'll add you now, welcome! :smile.gif:
Isss there a Clan Name and possibly a clan thread page so we can verify?
Lord of Nova Tekkit Nations
Just had to point that out.
This is the clan that has requested an alliance.
This reminded me, are we having a meeting this weekend?
