I had to remove threads from the Underground, Septagon, New Mombasa and the Classifieds because of your little experiment - your members that posted in the public forums are lucky they weren't blacklisted.

The way they behaved in the public forums made it look more like a publicity stunt.


I would have to agree on that. Trying a new recruiting technique m00zor?

I believe that it was to simulate what he believed i would do in the event of my getting pissed. But i think you need to stop shaking in your high heels GH.

o the irony of that statement.

Anyways, group takeovers happen. Simulations won't help you take your group back since in a takeover, the leader is the first to go, and then movng to moderators and other higher ups. Thats the way a takeover goes. Simulating won't help anyone get back into the group thats been taken over.

Guardian, didn't you stage a simulation like the one that we just held? I got the idea from you...ah well.

And to everyone here and on the forums affected, I sincerely apologize that the whole thing got this far out of hand. I, contrary to what you may believe, was not anticipating a five-forum spam attack. So I apologize, again, for any problems I may have caused. Also, to anyone that may have been on the receiving end of any tirade I might have shouted late into the night yesterday, I apologize for that too.

Sincerely,
m00zor

all my points that I made in PF after I had calmed down are also being said here, by moderators.


Except for the fact that the mods went about it more maturely.. without all the cursing and the calling of names...

I THINK YOUR A -blam!- MORON. ALL 3 OF YOU PEOPLE. YOU CAUSED MORE SPAM THEN THE FLOOD HAS. THIS WAS SPAMMED ACROSS THE PUBLIC FORUMS, MULTIPLE PRIVATE FORUMS NOT TO TALK ABOUT HOW MANY -blam!- PM'S SHISHKA AND ACHRONOS RECIEVED DURING THIS.

YOUR A -blam!- MORON.

Yeah only difference is when I did it the first time I didn't send my members to attack every forum with "HELP POPULAR FUSION and while your there join to" ads. I did it as a privately within the group to judge member response. The second time it happened it was real and I really got booted from the group and Achronos really had to step in and restore power. I didn't do it has a publicity stunt.

Well, I didn't ask my members to go to the forums and post. They did that out of their own volition. Around twenty or so were online at the time of the drill, and what happened was they panicked and posted here instead. Not the best course of action, but was it intentionally directed? No, of course not. I would appreciate it if you stopped accusing me of such, after I have apologized and explained what happened numerous times, as well as alerting the moderators prior to the event. If you have ACTUAL evidence of me TELLING members SPECIFICALLY to post on the main forums, please bring it forward. But it doesn't exist, so you can't. Why? Because it wasn't intended.

Maybe you didn't intent it but your members certainly took advantage of the situation.

Ah...now that is a completely different accusation from before; certainly, it is one that is approaches another matter of a not so personal nature. I appreciate that, but if this was the case, I wish you had said that to begin with.

My members did get somewhat out of hand, but I disagree with you here again. I do not think that the panic posts or "advertisments" were sinister, mal-intended, or devious routes of promoting Popular Fusion--rather, I hold that they were indeed just that: panicked members uncertain of what to do. That was the whole point of the drill, to make sure that next time, they are not uncertain but rather are well-prepared.

I'm officially declaring a cease fire, atleast from me. Through a series of PM's Moozor convinced me that this was infact intended to be just a drill and nothing more. I still think it wasn't the greatest idea, but everyone screws up. So, to everyone I was snarky, rude, or just plain mean to, I apologize.
