    Default The end

    I am done with this. The recent developements in this story have left me with no other choice. I have worked hard in every position TWC had to offer me. Since last June I have been trying to make TWC better. But now I am afraid all my work has come to nothing. I fear that this age of TWC has ended. And I cannot bear to continue on.

    I love TWC, so doing this hurts me on all levels. My clients, the Vorenus family, all the other families, you have done well. And I hope you can continue to do well. It may come as a surprise but Simetrical, this time, is the only person with his head squarely on his shoulders. The decision by Archer and Justinian along with the rest of hex has left me gasping for air.

    The saddest thing in this is their inability to listen to those most senior in staff. This has come and I know that I no longer belong here. That said, I thank all those who gave me the chance to rise.

    Good bye and good luck.

    Why do you have to leave? Why cant you just withdraw from curial responsabilities for a while and just cherry pick the topics you wish to post in, like I do? Its no pressure, no responsabilities, just post what you want, where you want, at anytime you want. Freedom...its a wonderful thang!

    This political infighting amongst the people who weild power leaves the rest of us lowly civs in confusion and bewilderment. Someone explain what exactly happened, in terms that a 6 year old can understand please. From what I gather, this is a disagreement amongst the leaders of TWC about which direction TWC is heading in...perhaps a disagreement on some bill or something?

    Please just trust us, some may want to make a big deal of it, but it isn't really.

    I think it was appropriate, hey its not a flame or a person attack, he's just saying what he thinks.

    Well considering that a lot of TWC delibiration actually happens OUTIDE of TWC, outside of the curia, in chatrooms...I think this adds to the confusion. Leaders getting together in chatrooms is bad imo, that should stop...but I dont know how anyone could ever enforce such a rule. All talk having to do with TWC should be limited to the porthalamos/curia...but unfortunatly its not, and I see that as a problem.

    Time for Grimsta to come out with another amazing Press Report to tell us what the hell is happening.

    We seriously need a news channel to give us vital info. Because we are all missing something.
