WOW! He says he doesn't want someone so foul in his org yet he is one! LMAO! Pull out a chair, get some popcorn, grab all the beer you can cause were in for a RIDE!
Yeah, ours is more a benevolent dictatorship who run a bar.Thankfully I found Test Squadron and some sound leadership, its such a huge change from a psychopathic Dictatorship who runs a Cult!
...A part of your statement that stands out.
"Lots of names and orgs we did not think were involved are now added to our watch lists, so that is actually a big help for us." ..Virtual Ace
So you keep lists eh.. Not a good thing to put out in public.. Words are like bullets once fired you can't put them back. The above statement may come back to haunt you...
VirtualAce, White Knight or Drama QueenWhat was your original thread title?
would it be helpful to have an in-game org dedicated to organizing opposition to VirtualAce's asshattery?
I created a couple of orgs I'm not doing anything with ATM as I am not in-game yet
I would be happy to open one of them to Holy Warriors for use as a rallying point
let me know what you think
Fucking L O L.Well, I feel like I have to add in to this thread, as to why I got kicked from AA, and to show Vace response to me calling his decision "childish".
LET THE STORY BEGIN!!
So when I was a member of AA, I quickly caught on too VirtualAce's aggressive nature. However, Iv had controversial leaders before in games like WoW. So I didn't put much thought into it.
Then one day, we had a discussion on discord about piracy, and I aired my thought on the subject. ( Can't get logs from a channel I'm kicked from, so it will have to be from memory )
Me:
"Well, if there was a way for me to have a 2. character in SC, with completely separate reputation then my main. Why shouldn't I then flip the coin, and see what is on the other side. I mean, the developers are working hard to make sure there is lots of content for both law abiding citizens and outlaws, it doesn't make much sense not to see it all. You don't have to be a griefer to be a pirate, you could just as well smuggle goods onto a dictatorship planet, where medicin is outlawed or something."
Like I said, can't remember the perfect version of this, but in broad strokes this was what I said. His response was to instantly kick me off discord, and remove me from the guild.
Kicking a player, for putting up a hypothetical scenario, for a game that NO one knows exactly how is going to turn out yet. I then turned to Spectrum to call him out on this.
Here is his response:

To be honest, I'm glad I didn't waste anymore time there then I did.
Man, someone is powerleveling their Paladin something fierce. What a tool."We don't want ANY PIRATES period!......This is my right since I am the one that has put hundreds of hours into this Org. Go make yourself a pirate org if you wish that is your right."
this, so much this....Hey virtual ace, Have you ever played EVE? You know the game where entire fleets and Orgs are destroyed. With a focus on ships that were lapsed on insurance? Or how moles would get in an org and really mess things up.
A part of your statement that stands out.

The universe is a big place you should be getting ready to enjoy it to see the amazing things it will have to offer. And not setting yourself up to be on constant guard and looking over your shoulder. TEST is a great family. It is my family These guys and gals are my brothers and sisters. Other orgs think the same way about their own members. You may not realize this but by putting my TEST brothers on a list you just added me to it as well. Just remember you did this .
And you should be doing the same for your org. Putting your org into needless conflict with MANY other orgs who may just be EVE Noob Army vets is not a wise thing to do. Your org will not grow or profit if it is hunted to extinction. When you keep lists it becomes personal to some people. And by making that statement in an open forum you just put a giant bullseye on your org. And the worst part is you won't know when or where the shot will be coming from.
You should drop the emotion lose the lists and issue apologies. It's not too late to turn over a new Maple Leaf. After the final beta wipe if this is still going on then it will be far too late. And the orgs you have targeted may just make you job number one. Now do not read this as anything other than sound advice.
The true test of a leader is learning from mistakes,admitting it and driving on.
