*Is a communist*

I find it hard to believe that true communism is at all compatible with any of the stances I've seen you convey.

andsolosaid
Druggy - ''I can't stop, it's like a disease. Once you've got it, there is no cure''

Me - ''Well, I would have equally as little sympathy for someone who injects themselves with polio''

There's a difference between having no sympathy for things a person has brought upon themselves and believing they should die for their mistakes.


It doesn't matter now. >.> I made him quit the guild, or so someone told me. I think he was trying to make me feel guilty. ~Shrug~
i dont see him on the member list and this guild is no longer in his list of guilds...

And do you want to know my personal opinion? Being totally and completely brutally honest. I don't believe he acted like a GBG member. He acted like an annoying child. I see this as some pathetic attempt at trying to make me feel guilty, and I know he's watching because his mule is still a member, so I'll say with complete and brutal honesty... again: I don't care. ~Shrug~ Yes, I will confirm everyone's suspicions. I am an apathetic b*****d(unless you're one of the lucky one's who got on my good side), and I quite like it that way. Had it been anyone else, I might feel bad.. but it's Owen.

I think I should say I am Naive, narrow-minded pessimistic and easily influenced in my opinions by my friends. I don't know enough about any political issues and try to make jokes about everything. For the longest time I thought "Hey, I'm just a kid. My opinion doesn't matter and nobody will listen to me anyway." and it's hard to shake that feeling. I probably shouldn't joke about what I don't understand.

I wasn't attacking you; this is all just a major misunderstanding that was my fault.

Well, people are free to come and go as they please. Though I'm pleased that the Guild still has an integrity and pride, and rightly so. The Guild has a sound reputation and a good history.

Personally though, I'll not cheer his departure. I'm treating it more as the departure of a prodigal son, I hope he'll come back. I might remind those here who don't regard him very highly of the fact that when the powers that be were trying to have me unjustly banned from Gaia and appeared to be victimising members of this Guild, it was he that helped form the GATMOB and he that invested 20,000g in a secret Guild from which we could conduct our operations.

He is essentially a good chap and I hope that he will return at some point refreshed and happy to conduct himself in his own way without causing the tensions that he has caused before.

well i do not cheer his departure either.. he is a good guy and i dont like the fact that you pushed him from the guild. he invested 20k of his own gold into the GATMOB guild to give us a place where we would be safe to talk. any time i have happened to discuss anythin with him he has been fine with me.. i suggest that it may be something wrong with you.

I don't want to get involved, but I am a crew member so I'll say that I think it's best to drop the subject before it causes any fissures within the guild. -- What goes on between Sean and Owen is between them, even if it happens publicly, so it might not be best for the rest of us to comment on their relationship (Owen's departure is a different issue, and can be commented on without causing additional strain, in my opinion).

I'm not going to speculate on why Owen really decided to leave the guild, because I don't know. I don't know Owen that well, and we have had disagreements, but none have been personal. I think it's sad that whatever's going on has lead to longstanding members of this guild feeling that they should leave for whatever reason and whomever is at fault, and I hope that whatever the issue is it will resolve itself in time. That's all I'm going to say about it.

Oh it'll resolve.

We're the GBG, everything always works out.

*Ahem* Indeed...
His mules are still about though, by the way.

But foxes are not innocent and they hunt for fun too. Anyone who disagrees is welcome to the duck heads in my mothers freezer. (I'm sure theres a sane reason).

Most definitions of 'innocent' generally encompass those who have no sense of moral right or wrong; in that sense, foxes would be innocent. Either way, I don't think you can practise eye-for-eye here.

Oh honestly.
I tend to think it's our fault fox numbers are so high. After all, we did take over their habitat.
We have a fox down our road, which we feed. So it doesn't rip open bin bags.
