Ok, I know it was in bad taste and it was bad timing. However, just so everybody knows I never put in my resignation. Yeah the hate HCM's stink, and I think people are over reacting about the red stars, but that would not cause me to resign. I had already set up a 'I am resigning' April Fools before all this drama happened, and I follow through with something if I start doing it. This is serious business and I shouldn't have thrown my April fools into it. Sorry.

At least now we can honestly say there's no favoritism. The mods hate us all equally.

Quote: I can't believe how attached some people are to some little pictures on the screen of their computer... This is what's called an ego attachment. The process of spiritual growth involves letting go of attachments and embracing impermanence of all things, which is the true nature of life, the constant of change. To avoid rigidity in body and mind and be healthy we need to be dynamic people, able to receive things and let them go. Some of you obviously need to learn this and this change is a great opportunity for us to learn this collectively.
Since this is a special date today I hope the new HC logo will lighten up your mood a little so that we can get over upsets and get on with making HC a more positive place to be, in a new way. There is a saying that there's a bit of truth in every joke. Red communism is of course a joke, but the truth in it is getting together for common good and overcoming challenges together. Trust me that it will be for the best.
This is only the beginning
We have an opportunity here to further this community to true equality, not only to further the people here, but the Heroes of Might and Magic series!
Why do we all have to have ratings at all? To say some contribution is bad or worse than another? All ideas and thoughts should have free reign! To say someone else idea for a new town is not as good as another is only to discourage them. To give a few members elite power over others is only to enable corruption.
We must move to the next stage
Eliminates the moderators for we are all equal people, we all play Heroes and there is on reason some should have the power to silence others. What can silencing someone possible to do help us?!
We need to remove the Colosseum. The whole point of competition is to make one arbitrary person a winner and everyone else losers. We can't all win by this system so we should replace it with another.
Other Games? This is the Heroes Commune! When H5 was going to be released it was our focus and union ship that allowed us to petition its delay. This should also be removed for the good of the commune.
The Wastelands should be freed! Stream of consciousness is the best form of brainstorming and sending "bad" posts to another forum to rot can at best do nothing, and at worst extinguish ideas!
And the HCM system? Why? All it does is give people "privacy" - to formulate ideas quietly and have an already refined idea when they go to post. Before it could make people look better but now that the chains of ranking are behind us we can move on beyond "privacy"!
And the best thing is, it need not stop here! Anyone at all, even someone who has never posted before and add and not fear scorn or judgment.
Long Live The Commune!

You can wait for others to do it, but if they don't know how, you'll wait forever.
Be an example of what you want to see on HC and in the world.

Well, anyway, seems I've acted too soon, lmao.

Awww come on... It's easier to just laugh about it now then just stay mad.
I must say I found this whole affair highly enlightning considering peoples mentality. Finally the mask was dropped, unfiltered ARRRGH delicious . Which is why I think this may have caused some damage.
But it's still the most epic prank I'll probably ever witness.

Hmpf, well don't forget I was extremely upset. Dammit, Val gave me quite a scare, for two days I've thought that my work of the last year had been for naught... Well, anyway, I won't hold grudges against Val or anyone, even TheDeath for calling Devious
Well, back to normal posting business. The Eagle has regained his splendor.

Well, when I'll look back for to this day, I will laugh loudly and swear to myself for not deleting my posts.
(I won't delete them though, they showed me in my usual Furious and Irrational mood. Indeed, that's me, that's how I am when I'm angry.)
(Why do I keep posting about this)

Shouldn't a joke be funny?
I mean, crying tears about getting death threats and showing fake pictures of your slaughtered dog to prove your point may make a perfect April fool out of some, but I have my doubts about the fun factor... ask Lexxan. Or Dad, for that matter.
Not to mention that next time you claim getting death threats no one will believe you or your claims about your slaughtered dog nor your declaration that you've just mined your property.
So. While this certainly was an interesting social experiment from my normal and common 2-red-stars point of view I wonder whether it didn't taught a couple of lessons to some people that would have better left ignorant. A lot of the posts I read in the last 36 or so hours don't become funnier anyway, in hindsight.

I would join the crowd and laugh, but I had a heart attack when I saw this was a joke, and I asked the robot to post for me the following 126 months...

I had the most epic time of my life, some of the comments were really funny. You would have thought we were shooting puppies and knifing kittens with how some reacted. Personally I thought it would be too obvious, but maybe our few side April Fools joke (and the fact that we started this a few months back) seemed to work. Of course, now we can never try this again. Now .. I got to do some groveling to people like Father. I would hate to see him leave over something like this.
A couple others will be getting the "I am sorry and am a spaz hcm's". Oh and the Nazi HCM's were real, but I just never overreacted about them. I have been a supervisor in real life (ie management) and you can't please everybody. You either come off as a tyrant or the best thing since butter. Please lighten up

It's not just a joke but a prank as well LOL.
I was wondering how long I would have to play along
No hard feelings to Asheera & the few others who felt my Wrath in the process
It was great to see so many fall for the prank LOL.
Good one Val.
One of the best ones.
Mostly because people fell for it, as much as getting so uptight.
Oh & Val I thought I had 5 Stars
