Popular Post stlmokevin Posted May 9, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Hello fam. I suppose I have some explaining to do. You may notice my new status as "Retired Staff Member", and wonder what the heck happened. Well, drama happened. A whole lot of drama. Drama kills friendships. It causes people to say and do things that they know in their hearts aren't right. I've always tried to avoid drama. Or if possible diffuse it in the best possible way for everyone. I feel like recently I haven't been living up to my Head Admin duties. I was in a strange way depressed by our Communities resentment towards Class and Griggs. I couldn't and still don't understand how a group of people can side with someone who willingly left our community, then earned a ban, then tried propaganda tactics to force a return. (I should note that my opinion is not shared by many of my friends.) Indy at one point was a great asset to our Community, then he removed himself from it. He wasn't forced out, he left us. Then made some video's that were pretty disrespectful to Class. You might be frustrated with Classixz for not responding, I applaud his restraint. But some people are followers. They see the videos and talk to him and are convinced that he will be some great savior for ZAM. Let me tell you, even when Indy was here, he was barely here. He wasn't on the servers everyday putting in the work, but he put in work when he could. I can't take that away from him. In his prime, he did lots for this Community. But he also turned his back on it. Now he remembers the good times and wants to return by any means necessary.. I can honestly say that Indy was a friend of mine. He helped me in the past like he helped many of you as well. But Indy changed. And maybe i've changed as well. I was fed up with the in-fighting and rather than wait it out, I chose a different option. I chose to make a statement. This in-fighting has consequences. Sometimes unforeseen. I will never stop repping UU. UU and ZAM are my second home. They are my family. I will never leave, and I will never turn my back on you. I will continue to be on the servers and forums daily as usual. If I earn my respect back and feel like I'm worthy of a spot on the UU roster, then I will apply and go through the same process as everyone else to apply for membership. Start from the ground up. Earn it the right way. Until then you will see me like always, playing ZAM and helping when I'm able. Kevin 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlmokevin Posted May 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 I dunno. Maybe to downplay the seriousness of the post. I never put much thought into titles. Either way, you clicked it. Mission accomplished. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamindy33 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Indy had addressed many of the things you are saying in past videos. He may have left but what Indy never wanted was for the community to fall apart. Thats why he went to you Kevin when he left, because he wanted you to take his place, you were the one person he trusted and believed could bring the community back together or at least keep it from falling apart. But what he didn't want to see was that you would just pander to classixz and blame half the members for being disloyal because they stayed close to indy. Whats sucks the most is that as soon as a bit of drama comes along you decide to get up and leave because you dont want to choose between friends instead of actually trying to bring them back together. This is one problem you shouldn't be sitting out on, but don't worry indy doesn't hold anything against you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one problem you shouldn't be sitting out on, but don't worry indy doesn't hold anything against you. To presume that Indy, I, or anyone else could "keep it from falling apart" is to assume that it was falling apart in the first place. It wasn't. The BS you guys started is the entire conflict, started and perpetrated by Indy and his fanboi friends. And if you really believe this is the first bit of drama we've had to deal with than clearly you are not paying attention. What you want is for me to take a side, I stand by the side that isn't trying to alienate the other. If that means i'm "pandering to classixz" than so be it. The fact that you responded to my post with more negativity just further proves my point. All you want is more high-school drama. I don't want to be a part of that. #keepindybanned #guntertoo #lucdeservedit #growthefuckup 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy doesn't make anyone do anything, and those "fanboys" people keep talking about, they are friends and were UU members to act like they were always some kids who can't think for themselves is low for you. If anybody is fanboying its 2 other kids in this topic. Indy didn't want you to pick a side, he wanted you to do what you thought was right. My initial post wasn't meant to be negative, than you reply with empty statements and "dramatic" hashtags, no substance or even an attempt to solve anything, just wants to drop a ban hammer. I didn't want to believe it when I heard what the "fanboys" said about you, but unfortunately it looks like they were right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrEn! Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 TBH it doesnt help the situation when Bluebird constantly joins in with random crap. i understand what we did, but calling us "fanboys" is insane when after every post Kevin makes, Bluebird and gart want to join in and say nice post, or rekt. Kevin had made his point, no need to extend it, because you saying rekt does not help the situation, in fact it angers them more and makes them eager to say something back. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
