    Well I guess all I can really say is good luck, and like I said, we're not all like that. I'm sorry that you have had a bad experience. It hasn't been all golden paths and roses, and I've made multiple trips to and from the Legion, but overall its been a decent experience. I'm sorry that a few bad apples ruined the fun. You're not the only one who was trying to tune them out. Good luck to where ever you end up going through out your CN life.

    If anyone else has any other "explaining" to do, you're on your own. I've done my part.

    Good to hear. It's so easy to simply say "it has been dealt with" about IA issues, and not actually have done anything, so it is nice to see some transparency. For a "first offense" (that is, first reprimand for the offense, whether or not this is the first time it occurred) this seems to be a reasonable course of action.

    Trust me, like I said, its likely to fly with anyone in the future. So the rest of our members can consider this as their 1st warning as well. It won't ever fly again. Personally I think the use of the language overall on the forums is a bit out of control. I don't understand why people can't alter their word choice to use words like "crap" and "freaking" instead of the others they do use. :P

    Oh well. Another battle for another day. :D

    Now I apologize for being a nitpick here, but for clarity's sake I would like to hear (if you know) what exactly "dealt with accordingly" and "are taking care of it" refer to.

    No worries. Well to make a long story short, I saw Gunnar posting in our resignation forum and then commissioned him to give me all the information. I am one of 4 assistants to the Inspector General. He is still working on the situation and I believe has the [i]whole[/i] story now, IRC logs and all. One of the 2 offenders made a post explaining that racism was bad and that he was sorry. The other offender piggybacked off this topic and said he was sorry. In my opinion, this was sufficient. You admitted you did wrong and said you were sorry and don't let it happen again.

    The Imperator (single top leader of the alliance), posted that similar racist conduct would not be tolerated in any way, shape, or form. The two people at fault were publicly reprimanded and civility on the forums was maintained. Basically everyone was living happily ever after until this topic popped up 2 hours ago. And like I said, racism is the worst kind of hate there is. And if it happens again, regarding any member, myself included, I would like to see forum bans, and the potential for expulsion from the alliance. An apology a 2nd time will not fly in my book. Part of being mature is watching your mouth and treating others with respect. If you don't want to abide by those simple unwritten rules, then don't let the door hit you on the way out. You have no business with us.

    I disagree. If we have boneheaded racist hate-mongers in our midst, I want to know about it, particularly if they are the leaders of a group in this game. It seems to be your wish to stop this being a big issue for your alliance, so I'd suggest that a good first move would be to give up on the current attempts to shut this topic down. Defending the accused (which you are tacitly doing by trying to control the topic against the apparent victim and in favour of the accused) without providing any substance other than 'it might hurt the alliances image for this thread to continue' does not look put you in a great light.

    Instead of simply stonewalling the discussion, it'd make you look better if you were able to say how the allegations were dealt with and what action was taken (if any). Can you do that?
    [/quote]

    I commend you really. Because that would be the best method to take care of this situation. And since some of the members involved are sitting on their couches reading the topic when they could be defending or reasoning, I'll do my best to enlighten you all.

    The IRC logs are pretty hateful. Involving some racist slurs and what not. It was brought to light on our main forums and was dealt with accordingly. Everyone was made aware of the situation, and the Inspector General and government members (who are not involved) are taking care of it. The individual who started this topic, freely left our alliance on his own. Even though we were working on fixing things, and hateful things were said, it was his choice to do what he did...on both accounts [leaving and starting this topic]. He was not forced out.

    I'm not going to sit here and say that racism is okay, because it most certainly is not. There's no place for racists in this game. We just want to play, have fun etc. At least I do. I don't know what anyone else's motives are. As far as the alliance goes, I don't approve of what was said, but I think it was pretty well dealt with. They both issued apologies on our forums (which was where this should have stayed). I guess the best thing I can say is that racism disgusts me and The Legion is overall a pretty nice group of characters. Don't let a few bad apples taint the barrel. The opinions of those few individuals do not reflect the views of everyone.

    What other SAFETY could you refer to?

    Is someone going to show up at his house and actually assault him? Seems far less likely.

    The most logical conclusion for that, then, would be that he would be attacked IN-GAME. If there are other options for how his "safety" would be in peril, please, enlighten me.
    [/quote]

    Sure. "Safety" as in his reputation. Maybe I should have used those words. But if you could stop reading into another alliance's politics or game plan, or whatever, that'd be great. Seeing as no Legion members started this topic, the alliance as a whole should probably be left out. In fact, not only am I surprised this topic hasn't been closed, I kinda wish it would be closed. It has no useful purposes whatsoever.

    [b]So he might be attacked for relating his story?[/b] Interesting.

    Sounds like a reasonable response to admitted "but joking" racist remarks being directed AT him. :rolleyes:
    [/quote]

    Read into that whatever you want. There's no insider information, or anything like that in the sentence. If I don't explicitly say it, it doesn't exist. So if you think he's going to be attacked, that's your opinion. Don't twist the words. :D

    I'm sure everyone knows that the alliance isn't like that as a whole. You did help me; however, I have every right to feel aggrieved over the fact that I supposedly would have been punished if I came back to the Legion over insults directed at me by two members.

    I have logs that will show that it was more than jest. I'd rather not show them, but if you want to continue this further, I damn well will.
    [/quote]

    Dude. I tried to help you privately on the Legion forums. This public display, or whatever it is, is so not cool. Them being whatever you view them as, taking it to the BBs was so not cool. Not a display of maturity that I always viewed you had. You're really not showing your true colors here and for your own safety and respect, I suggest you drop this.

    This is nothing more than entertainment for some and a purposeful jab at the alliance as a whole. We're not all like that, and you know it.

    Mining Industry Consortium - $25,000,000 - Increases population income by $2.00 for the resources Coal, Lead, Oil, Uranium that your nation has access to. Requires 5,000 infrastructure, 3,000 land purchased, 1,000 technology.

    Here is my nation link: http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_d...Nation_ID=62344

    And to save everyone some reading:

    * I have 6500 infrastructure.

    * I have 3000 land purchased.

    * I have 3,550.65 technology.

    * And far more money than necessary to purchase it. The only thing I can think of, is that I'm reading the description wrong and that I MUST have coal, lead, oil, uranium. In this case, I only have 3 of the 4. Can anyone assist me?

    Hi, who are you, and why do you think you need a q&a press conference?

    I'm pretty sure you know the answer is in this thread somewhere. So I'm going to do you a solid and ask you to take a gander back through the thread. Currently, its 2 pages. I know that's a lot, but I'm sure you can handle it if you truly want your question answered.

    As a collective, can we refer to you as Q?

    You may indeed. And for the ladies out there...you may call us whatever you like. :ehm:

    Methinks that people need to read the questions/answers in front of them in interest of not having ridiculous redundancy. Anyways, good afternoon Tora.

    Questions:

    1. When are you coming back to Legion?

    2. Do you miss me?

    3. What is your "Foreign Affairs Path"

    4. Current Favorite Alliance

    5. If you could join one Bloc, which would you join? (Exclude Purple Unity)

    1) I have no plans to return.

    2) No. Because you're on IRC all the time. :P

    3) Ask Tora. He's our FA guru, but by now he already asked.

    4) Quantum.

    5) Not real sure.

    I didn't give a response to the topic yet so I figured I'd cough one up.

    Be sure to fax me a copy. :rolleyes:

    Sure. I just need your fax number. And perhaps a "CC:". You may want your affiliates and allies to read up on the latest copies I produce. :rolleyes:

    Whoever said "The boredom has reached a breaking point"; spot on my friend. Its like people kick back and think of new ways to just utterly dumb down the game. Every new lame thread gets more and more retarded.

    Because I'm sure every rogue follows a seemingly stressful moment between two alliances.

    Its rare I must admit, but *sighes* it does occasionally happen. I mean I understand how this could be such a big deal. I mean rogues are usually below 5000 NS. Or less...

    *Yawn*. This is the new era of CN. Nations below 5000 NS are considered to be a big deal now. I'll go write up the paper work.

    I had no idea rogues deserved their own thread. I plan to post a new thread on the CN forums every single time our alliance, or any of our PIATs has a rogue nation, so I can let everyone know. I mean, everyone enjoys having their time wasted. I thought there would be some sort of substance within the thread. I was wrong. I look forward to NOT reading your threads in the future.
