Not so long ago Czarine, Leader of LoBME made a good decision. She spotted weakness in her officer pool and decided to bring me into the guild as an officer. I did a good job and she noticed quickly that my ability to pull people together was impressive so she made me Co-Leader of LoBME.
That was, until two nights ago. It was her decision to make me Co-Leader. Only she has the right to choose otherwise. This is first and foremost HER GUILD.
I did not leave LoBME as you were told by those who knew you would be upset by the fact that I was ninja kicked from the guild in the middle of the night.
Recently in light of all that has changed I decided to start a new guild, with my alt Longhair, called Invicta because there were serious gamers in LoBME and there were casual gamers. This dichotomy in the guild was divisive. People were called names behind other people's backs. Lines were drawn. Instead of trying to change LoBME and possibly harm it in the process, I decided maybe it was time for a bit of a pro-team spinoff. Both sides didn't seem to get along very well so I decided that I would create sort of an offshoot of LoBME and let people go back and forth as they pleased as long as they met the criteria. Invicta for serious gaming, and LoBME for casual. Besides, and no offense to Czarine, if she never came back the guild was screwed and pretty much doomed to failure being stuck in limbo without a true leader to be able to do the things we needed done to the roster. I couldn't take that chance.
Besides, many people would arise suddenly as officer with little to no qualifications and no explanations as to who promoted or why. It's hard to manage a guild that goes through so much change. It's hard for the head to tell what the hand is doing in a guild like that. There became a disconnect. I noticed that many people were leaving at random and I asked them why and they would say that no one talks to them or they never got in a guild group. This was a big problem.
Last week, Czarine came back and asked me if I spiked her guild. I told her no. I asked some of my friends to join my guild. Those people who wanted to come with me were my friends long before LoBME had them in their ranks. Yes I asked a few people, but to be honest most of those people I invited into LoBME in the first place, like I said. It was their decision to see the wisdom of my idea and to join us. I harbor no ill will against LoBME, I helped make it what it is today and in a short period of time.
She was cool with me after we talked about that, and then said that she really trusted Lan and that she would make him temporary leader so that he could promote/demote and do the things we needed to get done for three weeks while she finished up college exams. She asked me if I was cool with this. I said I was just as long as she told Lan that he couldn't kick me out. She agreed and the conversation was over.
The guild was running pretty good and I needed to focus on solidifying Invicta before I could focus on helping to better organize LoBME. Now that we are solid and strong, a mere week later, I was assailed with drama and other useless prattle having nothing to do with anything. I was further accused of spiking and after a small spat between Lan and I, I awoke to find that like a thief in the night Lan had kicked me out of the guild. I did not leave LoBME but I can tell you right now that the 80 members of Invicta were all your friends until that moment that I was kicked like a coward. Right now they stand united awaiting my decision on how to deal with Lan/Keldo's treachery.
I had wanted to share LoBME's vent server so I asked Lan/Keldo/Xnolariath many times to make Invicta a room on his vent so we could all be together again. Many times I asked, and many times he responded with affirmations, only to fail to honor them. So here we are, I am kicked out of the guild. Now Mehdik has become the leader of Invicta and it's my call whether our guilds are now friends or enemies. Invicta has its own 50 man vent server now anyway so the opportunity is gone now.
Was this the wise move of a leader or the callous calculating move of a usurper? I guess you will have to decide. Now I hear Acturis is leader. All I can say is what the fuck is going on? All these Guild Wars buddies of Lan are taking over the guild and they have the least right to do so. Who are they? Guild Wars is not DDO and their accomplishments there mean NOTHING here. This is the kind of twisted ideals the new "administration" adheres to, preferentialism.
Until things get straightened out anyone who thinks they can hack coming over to Invicta is welcome to apply @ our website
www.InvictaDDO.com . Special considerations will be given to all LoBME members who make the switch. Please make sure to put your character information in the sign up form. Sending me or Longhair (my alt) a tell may also be helpful. Invicta is a DRAMA-FREE ZONE.
Czarine - Get a hold of me - you're still my #1 girl - we can get past this nonsense.
Mehdik
- The true co-leader of LoBME. Everyone else is just a usurper.
The leader will return in a few weeks and hopefully she will straighten this out. In the meantime send me a tell, or Longhair too.
To the backstabber:
Lan or Nebu or whoever is responsible for kicking me out like a coward in the middle of the night and then pretending that "Mehdik just left"- You are a despicable human being (and I use the term human loosely). You fucked up a really good thing and your guildmates should be ashamed to count you among their number.
If ever I am given back my position I would recommend that you and your cronies leave the guild and start their own because this guild is no longer big enough for the both of us. In fact this server isn't. You are hereby blacklisted by Invicta from participating in any of our raids. None of our members will raid with you ever. We have other powerful alliances and I will assure them to blacklist you as well. With all these ancient guilds blacklisting you and little endgame presence of your own you will have extreme trouble finding PUG groups for raids. All that will be left for you is groups that ninja you. Good luck with that. You thought you had power over me but you were very wrong. I think you will find me quite influential on this server.
P.S. I had the power this entire time to systematically dismantle this website but a true leader never uses his power selfishly. Let that be a lesson to you about restraint. I harbor no ill will against LoBME only Lan/Keldo/Xnolariath, or perhaps Nebu/Acturis the only two people who could have possibly kicked me out. You'll get yours. Also I would like to point out that WHAT RIGHT DOES KELDO HAVE TO HAND OVER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE GUILD THAT IS NOT HIS UNLESS HE HAS USURPED IT AS HIS OWN? Worst leader ever. Sorry you made such a huge mistake trusting this snake, Czarine.
