my fault Firefly, I wrote that wrong...happens with sleep deprivation....

Let me reiterate:
When I joined DiM, Homie had JUST been elected leader of EA. Nearly unanimously, apparently. for a LONG time, the situation ran just as you discribed it was like before you went on leave. We co-ordinated, people were happy, and I never heard a disgruntled word from anyone about EA or the internal goings on...no-one except the NC and VS who didn't apprieciate how much butt we were kicking.

THEN one of the guys in DiM, Lex, brought about an interesting topic on his Conspiracy website. It was the Cery Bridge Jump. Interestingly enough this jump was planned shortly after the Liberator and Skyguard came out. Someone in DiM, who's name is lost to my memory, thought up the brilliant plan of crashing the party, as it were. The rest of EA learned about this and jumped, yes, JUMPED at the idea. It was FULLY endorsed by EVERYONE in the EA. If someone DID object, they didn't do it out in the open, and so we never knew about it. We essentially TOLD the planners of this event that we'd be waiting for them, and many of the other TR not in the alliance gave similar promises.

So the Ceryshen Bridge Jump Massacre happens. The people who actually got into the fighting enjoyed it, but there were people that like to gripe. They griped loudly. VERY loudly. Suddenly all those people who supported and enjoyed the event...shut up. No-one backed up the Digital Marines or A99, or any of the other three outfits involved. All that was there was the gripers. There were enough gripers and not enough supporters that it made us out to be horrible game-destroying people. Those gripers created the black mark, and because of the lack of follow up support by people who originally were all for the idea, the mark stuck.

So yes, DiM was responcible for much of the advancement of the alliance system on Emerald. We brought, with help from other outfits, this server together. A few loud people, and a lot of quiet ones, stopped that. So while you, Firefly, built EA up, and while DiM and a few others continued it on, eventually it was TR that destroyed it. All the bringing together that you and, later, DiM worked hard to do, was brought down and knocked out from under them, thanks to a small minority of complainers, and a vast majority of people who just sat quietly, and idly, by watching the distuction of what was possibly the best thing TR had going for them.


Sorry for the long post, just thought it needed to be said.

When you guys say bridge jump, do you mean the one where everyone was begging Miir to film it for like a Captain Carnage(s) movie?



....Did you guys actually jump?

Same here. I sort of forgot about them. Saw less and less, then forgot. Sort of "Out of sight, out of mind" kind of thing.
