It saddens me no end that this kind of behaviour continues to crop up.

All our community leaders, the CL4's, 5's and 6's devote time out of their lives to help spread enjoyment and fun to all the community members here in the UFP. Whether you're a Star Trek Online fanatic, or like hitting Murloc's with big hammers - you should feel that you can practice your craft in the safety of an accepting group. It's saddening when people who clearly have a severe mental illness use places like this to spew off their hate filled bile and intollerance at the very people who are here to help them have a good time. They don't deserve it, and shouldn't have to put up with it.

I know from personal experience working with our fine friends on FEO that it takes a LOT for Jonathan to invoke the Ban-Hammer. Despite what is believed by those who experience it, every member of FEO and SFC work tirelessly to prevent the actions taken here. Yes, Jonathan may come across as direct when he's issuing you a warning (been there, done that!!) but so much thought it put into its wording, to provide you with support to help you navigate AWAY from what you've done wrong. No one's setting anyone up for failure.

In the interests of disclosure, Three's actual species is a closely guarded secret known only to those who join FEO. Her feline/lizard/human/demon heritige will never be revealed!!

*goes back to the beach*

This has gone way off topic. The member got booted. The rest is pretty much water under the bridge.

Bit of a shame for you to be so dismissive.

100% agreed!

Agreed also. This situation hasn't been the most pleasant of things, but it's great to see the community spirit shining through.

If you feel so strongly about this issue, then please go ahead and leave, as you indicated you wanted to.

You are more than welcome to stay and participate if you are prepared to be polite and follow the rules, but you signed these rules, and the rules say a great deal about what is considered acceptable and unacceptable behaviour. You appear to have breached several of these already, and also appear to be prepared to continue to be adversarial and quite frankly hostile to both the leadership, and those members who speak against you. Furthermore, this is a textbook example of the hostility for which the community rules are prepared for.

So if you arent prepared to get on with people here, and insist on continuing to cause trouble, then you are most welcome to leave. I would hate for that to happen, but clearly you are not happy with being part of this community as it exists right now.

You seem to think you are the one creating the rules. You are not. Their attitude is justified, as the system you agreed to follow and support resulted in them attaining the positions within this community.

I have been very diplomatic so far, but I am sorry...this cannot continue. Obviously I cant speak for the entire fleet, nor would I try, but this arguing and hostility is creating a very tense environment in a community that prides itself on commradie and friendship.

EDIT: Perhaps I was a little harsh, and my apologies if so. But we all seem to be dancing around this issue, and it clearly hasn't worked so far
