What the shit is this mess? This cluster-fuck has gone on quite long enough, I feel. Seems that, since my departure, this place has collapsed on itself. That's not quite the vision I had when I stepped down. Ten years building an infrastructure only to step aside for a couple months and watch it dive-bomb. I'm a little peev'd. So, check this out, ass-munchers. I'm coming back. I don't know who's in charge right now. I don't care to know. If I'm stepping on toes, I'm sorry. I cannot sit back and watch this place fall apart. Since there is apparently a new server in town with the Tempest name, here's what I'm doing. The Crypt and The Tomb are returning as our servers. Same configs. They are both dropping to 24 players until I can identify what the fuck the problem is with the lag. EDIT: Fuck TF2, we're moving to something new... stay tuned. Stats will be returning. We are in the process of figuring out logistics with that mess, but they will return. I don't want this thread to be about "omfg lol I <3 u wdf!!!" or "omfg wtf you asshole go away I've got this shit covered" I want constructive feedback. I've been away for a while. I don't know what the issues are right now, but I am willing to work to fix them. I have a lot of spare time right now (until January 19th), so let's see what magic we can make in that short period of time I have available. Fucking idiots.

I need a list of everything wrong with the forums. You know... so I can fix them.  [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.

I really don't think it's necessary. They are not in a "cluster fuck" of a mess....they are actually in the process of fixing the mess you left them with. I personally think they are doing the right thing and on a really good path here...why you read it as "they are idiots" is beyond me.

People aren't happy. They complain to me. I tell them sorry. They continue to complain. As far as I can tell, pDs is moving to a new website and a new server, meaning I have a blank canvas to start something new. This is me starting something new. Those wishing to continue playing TF2 can do so with Muff and his new endeavour. I wish him luck. I'm also pretty sure that I can do whatever the fuck I want, as this is still my site.

Anyway, I start reconstruction of this place tomorrow. New Tag. New Games. New Everything. You're welcome to join me, but you don't have to. Muff is doing a fantastic job with his plan for pDs and I encourage you not to stay simply because I'm back. This is a new project.

Idiots? You sir are clearly the fucking idiot. You don't know anything, or so it seems. You left this clan do die, nobody could even update the servers. So now they are doing something about it, which is weird. It is weird, they don't have a good clan leader for an example, cuz you made a big fucking deal out of every single thing you did. It takes 5 minutes to update a server, and you act like it is a 8 hour a day job. Get over yourself, so they don't want a website named after you, boo hoo. I am super excited for a clan named after somebody, that always shows what kind of person the leader it. You fucking idiot.

You fucking idiot. I'm super excited to clean house. Starting with you. Anyone who knows me at all knows that I'm sarcastic, which is what "fucking idiots" was. Sarcasm.

You know, this is pretty creepy. I was just thinking as I was closing up shop at work "You know...WDF appeared right as we were getting stuff moving along. Maybe he'll come back and take ownership of the clan again." ...and then you do. Cool. I'm totally fine with that. As long as SOMEONE can maintain the servers and websites, then I don't have to think about it. However, when you left us, you made a mess. I understand that your leave of absence is personal. Real life comes first, always. In the meantime, the people around here needed to figure out an alternative plan that we could control. Nothing was happening, the clan was dying because it was suffocating. I never intended to "usurp" you or whatever. My only concern at this point is Bragr. He just spent $300 on this server for TF2, and now you come back saying "Well, I'm done with TF2, lets play something else guys!" If we're going to let this server die, then we all need to pitch in to pay him back completely. ... and now its time to be honest with myself. A little part of me is pissed off right now. I was feeling proud that I was moving the group along to something resembling a functioning clan, and then Whut suddenly bursts in, accusing me of screwing up the clan and calling me a fucking retard or whatever for doing so. ... and then I exhale and calm down.

You fucking idiot. BYE NIGGA Edit: Seems like a lot of shit has happened. There are a lot of fucking posts. I really dont want to read them all and look at the timestamps to see how exactly this shitstorm progressed so keep that in mind when reading this. I won't make a new post to speak my mind because it'd probably be mostly ignored. I don't want this clan to split. I love this clan. I quit and rejoined this clan 3 fucking times. I love everyone in it, even bragr. I love TF2, even though I haven't been playing it as much it's really the best FPS out there right now and we shouldn't all have to be divided because some of us are bored with it. This clan has gone through shitty times and pulled through before. This might be a new record, but we can still pull through. Defiance, you're a worthless, megalomaniacal pissant. We got into an argument you started over me saying we were better than you. You had to try and spin it around to make me look like a bad person, but really all I was saying was I like us better than you. You tried to say "oh, we're so different, how can you compare us" fuck that. You're always trying to prove yourself to us, with the scrims, and the constantly coming in here offering "advice". Sure, your clan has more skilled players. Whoop-de-fucking-do. I've been here for 5 fucking years. pDs and its extended family have been around for, 7? I think? maybe more. We have the better servers. We have the chillest crew. I had to patch things over with you over that argument because a lot of people here like you. But in my opinion, you mean fuck all to us, we don't need you around. fuck off. Same shit, different asshole: hey oldies, remember monstervince and nookie? For those of you who don't know, you can czech out their website, nookiereport.com Oh wait. That links you to some ad website. It doesn't exist anymore. Because nookie failed. Monstervince was just another putz who thought he could run things better and he couldn't. This clan has always been for vile, crude, and rude motherfuckers. But at the same time, for mature and cool-headed people. I was a rowdy teenager too, sometimes I still am. We like to start shit and call people names and use curse words and not worry about it because fists can't go through the internet. Shit happens, people bitch about it, and we pull through. Know why? Because most of us are reasonable adults and we have the best leader in the world. Whut built this place. He doesn't have to take shit from anyone and I'm glad he sometimes doesn't. I don't want some pussy democratic leader who has to wait for the go ahead from every last member before doing something (this isn't aimed at you, 12. if anything it's past clan leaders I've seen). I want a leader who gets shit done in a reasonable timeframe and I trust whut's judgement. TL;DR: I really don't want this clan to split. But if it does, jesus christ, I'm on whut's side.

I am providing two additional servers. They are named The Crypt and The Tomb. Bragr's server is the new Tempest. After discussing in length the game situation with Mr. 12, we'll be continuing with TF2 because there simply isn't anything else worth playing. Muff, you have done a fine job. You can still take pDs out of here if you want. I won't stop you. I'll switch my tags and start something fresh. Poor timing on my part, it seems. If it's better that I don't return I can do that too.  [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.
