I am making this post to apologize for some of my comments. Bringing up morris was not the same context as Sur's ban. It was not helpful for me to bring up the past event as it was a completely different context from what I have found out in Sur case. Lack of respect is the driving factor for Sur. I sent Roxy a PM asking her to explain their actions and she did. She was really nice about it as well and she did not have to be. I was kind of being rude. I asked dadda as well and his post explained the Admins reason for the Ban. I feel comfortable the Admin team did the right thing here. If you can't respect our Admin team who volunteer to help keep things running..... yea you have to go. It is sad we lost Huskie as well as she is liked by many people from what I understand. That sucks but not the end of the world. Their is only one member who if we left it would be end of the world. Here is my view on this Clan and how it has been run over the years and I will explain why I think this model has kept working for us. It is because of Rugger. Rugger has had to make some tough calls in the past and he has consistently put his trust in the Admin team to help him decide things. True leaders ship. Rugger is far from a dictator. That can't be said for some of our past Admin... I say again PAST Admins.. ones who are no longer here. Power goes to their head and they become a Cancer to this clan. Rugger is the cure for cancer and it is only because of this non selfishness that has kept this great Clan a float. I have said this before and it still holds true. There is no one here in this clan today or in the past that could of kept this clan going. Not one of us could make it happen this long accept.. Rugger. (wiping shit off my nose) We have a fine Admin team. I admire many of them in our Group. I dont want to start naming names but folks like Jay, Bama, dadda, Rockape and the list goes on I hold a very special view of them. Good people that have done this clan a great job. Like Roxy told me in her reply to my PM.. she and I have never had a conversation. Her saying that makes it unfair of me to make any kind of assumption to something that was being handled behind closed doors. Roxy and dadda helped prove yet again the Admin's are only looking out for the best interest of the entire clan.. not just one or two people affected by the drama. This is what I am talking about with Rugger. His leadership in the past and present is what is best for the Clan. I see now Roxy has that mentality and I thank for that. So I want to talk back the rude things I said about Admin's not wanting to lose. I was completely wrong. I am making this post to apologize for the accretions and accusations. I spend since last night thinking what I would say in this post. XI is a great place to hang out. Facebook sucks in comparison. XI has been my home away from home and at many times of my life I relied on it for a the humor, friendships and yes.. attention. I can't thank this clan enough for what you have done for me. Hard to explain without writing my entire life story. As for some of the bickering between a few folks here like Chile and even Pete it goes way back. Pete and I have had some fun conversations. I have zero problem with either of these folks. Chile can continue to hate me like he has for years and Pete and I will continue to be friends. I do agree some of the rhetoric and Bull Shit I do need to tone down. I would like to go back to the just joking around all the time but I have become quite serious as I watch this world turn. Hard to find something funny to say when I am serious like I have been. So my goal is to start seeing the humor in everything again. I really want to die laughing. Thank you Jeff
