Re: Random Allies...
Ask and ye shall receive Mattheus
taken from Pols:
[hidden:romwfva1]Apparently there's been some confusion about the posting rules, so I'll clarify.
DO NOT post personal conversations.
DO NOT go off topic in threads.
DO be polite. If you can't you'll be removed from all politics you post.
I'm not kidding. I don't like intra-alliance war. I don't like b.s. and I don't like people acting like children. I will not put up with this, and I do have the ability to hang out on this freaking site all day deleting your spewings. If you don't want to be here, since we can't kick you, delete your id and start a new one.
I will repost the alliance politics when I get a confirmation from each person stating they will abide by these rules. This is so stupid, but if we're going to act like a kindergarten class, this alliance will be run like a kindergarten class. For heaven's sake, I couldn't even fulfill ikke's request of posting the alliance intel in one solid list in his post because I had to chase around insulting posts.
I can't do my job properly if you people make me chase you around.
Drop whatever's bugging you and let's start new. Send me that message, and you'll be allowed to post.
Politics are necessary. We need to know what's happening. So let's use it appropriately.
P.S. Warnings will be handed out in messages. If you are blocking messages, you'll be warned in politics. If you continue, since I can't communicate with you, I'll just block everything you write. Please let me know if you're blocking messages due to someone outside the alliance.[/hidden:romwfva1]
Now some of those rules are actually reasonable, if only they weren't accompanied with batshit crazy rules. The method of 'enforcing' said rules is hilarious tho.
PM with my leader:

Besides you wanna talk sensible?

Isn't it quite obvious I don't have it?
Just sayin..

well perhaps you would be better off doing sensible ****, like posting in Defense thread. otherwise WHY IS IT THERE? answer me that my oh so glorious leader.
Also since we've never played together as far as i'm aware, you'd do better to give players the benefit of the doubt. Just another 'suggestion' to add to your little book of leadership qualities okay?
And I only told you what to do because it's sensible, and as a leader for many rounds you should know it. It's not a big fuss, i didn't mean to kick up a huge affair, but if you'd just said 'yeah dude, good idea, let's make sure everyone does that' then it would've avoided this whole discussion and i wouldn't think you're a powerhungry fool.
-----
I know what I'm doing. I have commanded an alliance for quite a few rounds. My so called "authority"? I'm the alliance leader. So called or not If I choose to post or not to post the is again my business. I know we're supposed to have fun, yet I never, ever play with anyone I don't personally, physically know. I didn't pay enough attention to the news that Azzer posts to see he was gonna randomly fill the alliances otherwise I never would have started an alliance. Yet Ka_Tet is a previous top 10 portal Alliance and I don't wish to give the name over to someone else to run into the ground so I'm gonna stick with it. Yes I am hostile because in general I have discovered EVERYONE in bushtarion are pretty huge douche bags and have no honor, respect or idea of what a fun game is. Now I've been stuck with a bunch of people I don't know (one of which I have fought before and know to be a douche) and have to deal with it.
Reasonable or not I am not a fan of being told what to do, I'm sorry I bit your head off I'm just not happy about this whole situation.
In my experience people I don't know are backstabbing whiny brats on Bush and I have been screwed almost everytime I let a stranger in..
If your different cool, I accept their are exceptions to EVERY rule, if that's the case then i will happily change my attitude. Time will tell, ok?
-----
i don't have hacks or spies so i can't see what you sent. And since my suggestion was perfectly logical I don't see why you have to stomp on me with all your socalled 'authority'. My suggestion is reasonable, your reaction is not. Calm down dude, we're supposed to have fun
-----
I suggest you don't tell the alliance leader what to do. If I do or do not want to post in the defensive thread that's my business and your perfectly capable of seeing what I sent.
-----
i suggest you post your defensive mob in the 'Defense' thread. Mostly so that we don't overdefend/underdefend.[/hidden:romwfva1]
I should have answered that last message from him by saying i didn't have hacks or spies yet, which makes posting in Defense thread even more paramount.
Another glorious pols moment:

See here I thought making sure the alliance has no chance in ever winning this tournament, assisting in monitoring the politics so no one can post and raising the alliance tax to 15% was noobish.. wait I just did that.. guess I am a N00b.
In the end get everyone you want to attack me, spam the hell out of politics and me.. do what you like, it won't change anything.
Despite not changing anything it will make the rest of the alliance suffer that little bit for your actions.
But it doesn't matter to you right?
Now post in IRC rush to the forums and do what you like, you have no chance of winning this tournament, until you decide to abide by Pastor's rules, and deal with my leadership. Improve your attitude and I will improve my leadership. Until then I can play the "who can be more childish" game.
May the best child win![/hidden:romwfva1]
Tye Dye Goddess: I only started spamming AFTER i was 'banned' from posting in Politics due to your ludicrous rules and that was intentionally done to spite you. here are the links of my favourite spampage (yes that's an intentional word from Spam/Rampage). You can't run an ally strictly by making rules and insisting upon having them followed simply because 'you are the Leader and CO'. In all honesty, you have to earn our respect to some degree and then i'll happily follow you. Also, reasonable and sane rules would be nice to follow. If you had felt it appropriate to treat me like an adult i would most certainly have reciprocated, as it stands, you brought out what is almost the worst in me.

Mattheus: I'm afraid to say because of the rampant deletion of all threads in Pols that are not 'Officer Only' I can't give you some of the best and brightest quotes, but those above should be sufficient I think....

All I asked for was that the posting rules had been violated, he acknowledge to me he would act properly...
No I didn't. I won't submit to idiocy.
tyedyegoddess said:
We'd give him back posting privileges if he'd stop flaming people and making spam just to do it. If he'd stop impeding our abilities to lead with his demands for attention and that we run our alliance his way.
Since you can't 'take away' posting privileges, I'm at a loss as to understanding what exactly it is you are threatening me with. I'm not impeding your abilities to lead, I was, initially, trying to help out but my help was turned down in the most ridiculous of manners so now i've gone out of my way to hand out our ID list to everyone i can, get people to attack us, and downright destroy the alliance. There wasn't a lot of flaming either, but of spam, there was an absolute ton. I'm not demanding attention, i was demanding basic alliance behaviour and if that is not 'your way' then so be it. You guys are the worst example of leaders I have ever had the misfortune to see.
Edit:

Just so you know, CO's the one deleting your posts
Yes I'm aware of that actually. Surprisingly enough i've spent more than 30 seconds in an alliance as officers of all levels and OMFG even leader once. But thanks for the heads up pal.
