It seems that the previous administration, who plotted against Oc and Doom, only to come clean and cancel on NG, NATO, and FTW have gotten their wish. Grub and I are no longer gov. It has been a fun run, and good luck to Sponge.
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. A statement from the Polar Council.
To EaTeMuP and AlmightyGrub, first and foremost, we thank you for all of your contributions to Polaris over the years. Every emperor of our hallowed halls has provided something the alliance needed at some point during their tenure that no one else could provide during that time. Eatem, you took us out of the Doom War era and brought safety and security to the alliance when we didn’t have very many friends and plenty of enemies seeking our downfall. Grub, you steered the ship and guided us to prosperity during one of Polaris’s darkest hours. This alliance would not be here today without the work the two of you put in during your respective tenures as emperor, through good and bad. Unfortunately, these are not good times.
The previous Imperial Command cut ties with Non Grata, after feeling their values did not match ours and that we could no longer be associated with that.

Due to the serious nature of our concerns on this matter, the Polar Council convened on the 2nd August. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss our concerns namely, the nature of the trolling, the reaction of Imperial Command, and how we feel that Polar should move forward. At no stage was a power grab discussed, and for clarity, no member of the Polar Council has looked for it. Following this meeting the following part of the Polar Charter was discussed.
“Article IV,Section 5. Imperial Succession”
If the Council believes the Emperor is no longer able to perform the duties required of the throne by the charter, the regent OR one of the sitting ministers may convene a meeting of the ministers, deputies, and Imperator Emeriti that are available. The meeting holder should make best efforts to include as many of these individuals as possible. At this meeting, the meeting holder must put forth a motion to remove the Emperor. Should a super-majority, defined as 75% + 1 of the total attendees, support the meeting holder's motion, then the Emperor is to be considered removed. Should the motion succeed, one of the present Councilors, Regent, or Imperator Emeriti shall assume the throne after a simple majority defined as 50% + 1 confirming this. Should the motion fail, the entire Polar Council will automatically offer their resignation to the Emperor, regardless of their individual vote on the motion.”
The Polar council and supporting Imperator Emeriti have agreed and signed this motion, we believe we have 75% + 1 in favor.
The New Polar Order has always stood by its morals and been a beacon for justice and doing the right thing. Allying ourselves with folks such as Non Grata is not the right thing. This action failed to create a positive and safe environment for [i]all[/i] of our members. The New Polar Order has proudly been a friendly environment and one meant to be safe for individuals of all ages allowed to be on the Internet without parental supervision. Actions taken place by Imperial Command do not provide that.
It is with a heavy heart that we the Polar Council and select Imperator Emeritus sign this letter to note our displeasure with the actions taken by Imperial Command since retaking the throne we request that you step aside so new leadership may lead Polaris in today’s Cybernations. Again, we thank you for everything you’ve done and still want you a part of our community and your voices heard as Polaris moves forward, but it is time to hear them solely from the Imperator Emeritus mask once more.
For the purpose of clarity, independence, and stability in Polar, the Council has nominated former Emperor, Electron Sponge, to succeed as Emperor.
Signed,
The Polar Council
