Let me make this perfectly clear, I have no plans on joining the sRs, nor will I join in the 21st bashing.
There is 58 people over there that I hold in high regard, and consider a gret number of them very close friends that I would do what ever I could for them. The 21st is a good group of guys, they just have a few people that I do not agree with and that along with this last ban on the sRs is why I have turned in my tags.
There is a point in everyones life that you must make a decision on either to follow something you do not agree with or separate yourself from that. I chose the later.
If the requirements of being here is to side with the sRs and against the 21st, then I will not post here anymore, like I stated earlier, I still have some very good friends there, and if I am asked to choose.. I will choose neutrality

Hemi, I don’t think the division should be between 21st or |sRs| but rather its between those who are capable of comprehending the difference between the real world and game, important and irrelevant, fair and unbiased administrating vs hypocritical, self serving and fascist-style manipulation of reality. The "sheep-like" mentality and "blind eye" to the egregious wrongs committed because of a indifference or inability to change mindset of those members who "aren’t responsible or involved" with the schizm between us, needs to wake up. The "community" that the "obviously so far removed from reality" LoganX was referring to is and can only be those members I am referring to. Therefore they are involved by representing the one voice. Do you think that if the members who considered actually taking a stand, would actually do so, that he would have a leg to stand on or the nerve to appear so condesending? If the people that I think are capable of individual thinking actually tried walking away from the bs as you have, that the 21st servers and their shortcomings could continue to appear to have a voice? The 21st would be made up of individuals who play power trips instead of DC.
Groups are made up of equals, clans are made up of family and friends and then there are those who tolerate the power (in even the smallest forms) hungry. The latter being the suffrage of fools and the child of sociopaths. To suffer from blind loyalty might be common place when talking about religion, country etc.....but to a gaming group???? Apathetic, given a whole new level of sadness.
How about the line in the sand just be drawn at right and wrong and lets see who represents the "community" and who needs to find a new way to vent frustration. I bet that the largest group would remain the undecided. Sadly this attitude bleeds reverse into the real world and is why a "democratic society" suffers the fool as well.
I have always tried to remain neutral, and even now if I felt that these guys were wrong I would say so and let the chips fall where they may. However I believe without question that this was an unjust punishment for being guilty of no actual crime and I know which side of the line I belong.
