      IRC Nickname: Tricksy Group: Emeritus Posts: 645 Member No.: 77 Joined: January 1, 2008 Total Events Attended: 18    | Abit unfair for BTO? Im inclined to think BTO is only agreeing for the good of the clan and not that he would reaslitcally want to leave his position. Leave it as it is or make both of them council for the sake of being truly fair for both of them. --------------------  Edwarrior317 - 102 Combat - Perm Banned Wilderness Guardian Moderator: 19th April - 3rd December, 2007 | ||

No I think he wants Raid Leader over Council from what I've gathered. --------------------    | ||

So it has worked out well in the past. If Eugene and the others are in accord there is no reason why it shouldn't work out. If it doesn't nothing is in stone and that can't be changed up. --------------------   | ||

 IRC Nickname: Gorgemaster Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 9840 Member No.: 3 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 540 | I held a meeting with the Council and Glenn last night, in which I talked again to both Kev and Glennfase and Kev is certain that he wants to do it. It is entirely his decision to "step down" as it were, but the problem with keeping them on as council is that there would be two Council who only want to be a Warlord and not Council (if you understand what I mean). Glenn is still thinking about it  --------------------    | ||

 IRC Nickname: Mr Glennfase Group: Emeritus Posts: 3064 Member No.: 39 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 220 | Sorry. I hate to destroy all this after such a good debate, but now I definitely cannot take the position. Fall play for my school is about to begin. I completely forgot about that... It will DEVOUR all of my time to the minute. Its senior year, all my friends are doing it, and I'm not going to miss out. I won't even be on until about 11 PM EST everyday. There is no chance I'll be able to get wars on weekdays, which was the entire idea. I wish us the best of luck. I'll stay emeritus for now. I really still want to be part of the clan, but leadership or staff is much too distant now. Maybe in the future someday. -------------------- That's Mr. Glennfase to you. Ex-Warlord/Council  | ||

stick to the weekends glen. the idea is that you take the position and once there to help the clan grow. if the need arises you may go ahead and train someone who can do the same while you're away. until you can return and fulfill your duties. reconsider the proposition. --------------------  Goals 2011  | ||

 IRC Nickname: Tnuac Group: Emeritus Posts: 1806 Member No.: 51 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 58 | Glenn can still advise and train people as emeritus. The position is imaterial, he can pass the wisdom on regardless of rank. Wise choice to make glenn. Although i'd fully support you, it sounds like you do have too much going on, and its no good getting stressed at this stage of your life. Props for considering it. -------------------- ~Aetas: carpe diem quam minimum credula postero~ "Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow"  | ||

Fresh meat. Fresh meat. Fresh meat.  Actually Glen would and is a great war lord! Yet elections have always been held, even when a council member leaves less than two months after an election. So. . . you know "slippery slope" that sort of thing. But, I always have felt that there should not even be elections. This is your clan Gene and you should be able to work with whomever you please. I know are you confused yet?  But that is what this sort of question brings up. Better to ask forgiveness than permission.Good luck. Null vote as well!!  --------------------  WG love forever, Kristy  | ||

 IRC Nickname: ThisIsUnique Group: Ex-Member Posts: 1664 Member No.: 1417 Joined: October 30, 2008 Total Events Attended: 141 | My oppinion is that elections are more of a popularety contest, not who is the best option. It shouldn't be like this --------------------   | ||

| IRC Nickname: Mr Glennfase Group: Emeritus Posts: 3064 Member No.: 39 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 220 | Ludo, you're semi-correct, but I don't understand how that is applicable to this situation. I had previous experience and everyone (not all but a lot) loved my work as I found us a full out war every single week. That and we have no one ready to take Warlord. You would be WAY in over your head to take warlord without raid leader experience before. I'm definitely not taking the position, but I'm willing to train people to either lead on Teamspeak, or to gain war-getting experience.
