Greetings everyone,
due to the increased tensions between the Clans participating in the war and since many of my friends and people whom I like are members of other Clans, I thought creating this thread was necessary.
I'm here to say, basically, that I really like and respect many of you. Akodo Homura, Akodo Keisuke, Akodo Tomatsu, Asahina Yukihime, Bayushi Hiromitsu, Daidoji Fitsu, Doji Naetaru, Hida Joji, Kitsune Poxo, Koichi, Quarim, Shokuma, Takezo, Togashi Enishi, Utaku Mai, among many others whose names didn't come to mind now (I went alphabetically to avoid showing preference, I do like you all for the most varied reasons). Why am I doing this? I'm doing it because of the political tension that may sometimes arise from discussions in the News forum or other threads (IC and OoC).
First I must say that, even when I don't agree with one of you, I respect you and your decisions. I can even understand why some of you support points of view different from mine and, honestly, I wouldn't want to associate only with people who share my opnion, that would be boring. That said, know that I'm not being serious when I openly provoke you (I do like to joke, especially when it irritates people. So, if you feel that I went too far, simply say that and I'll apologize properly if needed) and that, even though we may be enemies "in game" and be actively trying to kill/conquer one another, I still like and respect you.
Each and every one of you may feel free to talk to me (via PM, facebook, skype, MSN, whatever) about my positions, to ask me why I do what I do or say what I say. I give you that liberty. You may approach me to ask about my "in game" positions or even require my support in a given event. If I disagree with you, you may expect reasonable and open arguments from me and know that I will never stab one of you in the back, especially those who are sincere with me. I do believe that honesty and kindness must be paid in kind. You may even try to convince me that my positions are wrong and you may be successful sometimes (I do try to keep an open mind). The only thing I ask in return is that you do the same for me.
I dedicate this song to all of you, it's called "Collective Mode" and performed by Asian Dub Foundation. Surely not all of you will like the beat but please pay attention to the lyrics, its something that I hold close to heart and its my way of saying that, together, we can work wonders.
