We must hold a transparent discussion amongst the Founder Committee about these issues which are close to causing an irreparable schism. This discussion must be visible to all citizens. I cannot in good faith hand back the founder when the rule of law in Taijitu is under threat.
I would argue we need to have a discussion amongst the citizenry as to who is on the Founder Committee.
I understand why you took the actions you took Myro, and I wouldn't have much of an issue with them if you were still part of this region. You made a show about leaving though. And yet you continued to have Founder access. Now you're the only one with it. You continue to have forum Admin authority.
Say what you will about me. When I left it was because life got busy or some other recreational activity just ate up my free time. I never made a show about leaving Taijitu. And I returned. Each and every time I game back to NS. Taijitu always remained my NS home.
You though? You moved Myroria out of Taijitu. You claimed you were leaving. So Myro. I'm asking you this. No judgements. I'll understand one way or the other. For the sake of the region though? Are you a part of Taijitu or are you not? I want you here. I know plenty of others who want you here. If you choose to be part of this community? Fantastic. I've already flagged you as an AOP in #taijitu_cabana for RP discussion.
If not? I understand. I'll be disheartened, but I'll understand. It's just that if you're not going to be part of this region? You shouldn't have forum Admin privileges. Nor should you have access to the Founder. That's not a slight against you. It's a fair and honest evaluation regarding your future as a citizen of this region.
an irreparable schism
I've reached out to you. To Elu. To Gulliver. To Funk. To Dyr. All in private at various points to try and smooth over what's happened here. I've tried to be civil. Dyr and yourself are the only two who I have reached out to who haven't made me regret it. And for that? You have my thanks.
I feel hurt though. I suspect the feeling exists among most parties on all sides of this. I don't even know what to do anymore. It's just going to collapse under a pile of "well you did A!"/"well you did X!" accusations. Gulliver has told me he feels frustrated about a number of things. I feel the same way.
My civility thread crashed and burned. That really hurts. Did I expect everyone I addressed would accept it? No, but I didn't expect one of those people to jump in and essentially tell me I'm a moron for trying. You can believe me or not when I say that it came from the very best of intentions, and from the bottom of my heart. It's the truth though.
If you want to help heal this? You need to reach out. To the other side of this schism. Not just to your friends. I feel like I've been doing the reaching, and I've been bitten more times than not. You know how to get a hold of all of us on IRC and on the forums. If that won't work? My Skype ID is [PM to ask]. Ask around. I'm sure others will be happy to give you theirs.
