Term 5 - Election for Military Advisor

[Provolution]

I cannot apologize, until I get a formal apology. This was a political campaign, and should be considered separate from official duties. I do not apologize to the Premier Embryon himself for no good reason. The fact that Ashburnham call for this unilateral apology is alone a sign of unheard bias. I have not cursed or sweared, I have not done anything but setting up the DEA, or come with minor jests well within the legal framework.
A rough tone, yes, given the references to my work being crayz, unnecessary and so on. I also see a lack of historicity, as Ashburnham obviously has no idea what took place back since Term 1. In fact, I am brewing up my own Judicial Review in light of the present atmosphere, which will become imminent to everyone. So sooth, comfort, consult, consort, comprehend and complain with Epimethius as much as you want, and seek to maximize his "minimimalizizm" by transponding his dubious and illegitimate, not to mention impopular claims as much as your heart desires. My apologies are only meted out to those who has earnt it, not tried to take it.

Ashburnham, I am sorry, but your champion Epimethius must live with this election as a
separate event that transcends into history. However, if I see that he focusses more on improving the military, as opposed to "minimalizizm" and his pledge to not do a [deleted action] until the war begins, and to "minimalizize" his unreported personal attacks, he cannot expect any official mercy at all. However, I claim the right to have presented my jests, outside DEA, as a citizen, and I am surely less vile than many others who are unreported out there. I have taken my barrage fire in the duel , stood the ground, now I lift the flintlock pistolier, and shoot through the opposing duelant, and sending the ricochet in the antagonists secundant way, as a message.

The fact is Epi is obviously pretty steamed about the events of the past election. Purposfully or not, you aggrevated his discontent to an extreme level. Actions such as creating the DEA are obviously intended to provoke and upset. Clearly I'm not the only one calling for an apology, and I don't see how it can be considered out of line at all. No I don't know what happened during Term 1, nor do I care. Epimethius obviously feels slighted, and there are many here who can see why. I'm really not trying to make this into a bigger issue than it already is, but asking for an apology can hardly be considered an extreme measure. We need to put the bitter events of the past election behind us, and you, Provo, have the chance to do this by apologizing.

Ok Ashburnham, I will try...

Epimethius, I am sorry I hurt your feelings, you seemed so strong in your resolve in your harsh and vicious posts, so I thought you were used to such a communication. You purposely sought to degrade the work I put in all terms, refers to me as glorified spammer, crazy, a child etc etc. But for your faint hearted supporters, and only out of respect for them, I forward this cautious apology calling for more mutual professionalism, focus on the game, and not focussing on discreditation from now on.
I will still maintain the MSAV office, and the DEA office (Nothing wrong with DEA, it sounds professional enough and can represent millions of acronyms). I know it will hurt to remove your insults from your political arsanal, since these have been your primary assets ever since the times you besmudged Zarn and others in the Domestic election, hunted me down for my Ringi reforms and so on. I vividly recall the faint-hearted liberal types that stand up for war-criminals, high school bullies and other perpetrators risking "too harsh punishments", you will never see me a member of Amnesty International for that sake matters, call me Draconian and fierce if you want, but I am not taking any [deleted item] from someone of your moral calibre.

I have let you go when you cheated in the elections, I have let you go for slandering me without reporting it and now I apologize to you since peaceniks, embryons and others care more for your feelings than others. Why don't they ask for your apology to me? Because they know I am a man, and can take it, and for future purposes, my
conditional apology rests on your imminent improvement to the better.

 

[Epimethius]

A slanderous, lying, half-appology...

I would take it, but its on about the same level as what you're appologizing for.

Bring me proof that I ever insulted you when you couldn't say anything back or bring me a real appology. I've never done anything but reasonably object to your policies. You humilitated me when my hands where tied.

You shot a man when he's down. And many times, I might add. That man isn't going to take some bs appology like that.

And while you're at it, bring me evidence that I cheated in that election. I don't remember it, and, even with my drug problem, I think I'd remember that. Don't make me play my trump card. It's way better than some CC.

 

[Provolution]

ok epimethius then, you were putting down the gun, it was not a duel, it may have been a Vulcan Mini-gun for what I know
I would also be worrying about your health if you were in bed with everyone you agree with Well, you have insulted me repeatedly, and this is probably the first time I hit back with force, within forum rules by simply putting up a new office.

And if I was a ten year old, I would feel very proud of your compliment on age.
For what you know, I may even be Autistic.

 

[Epimethius]

ARGH! For god sake, you wonder why I say you act like a child?!

Look, give me evidence that I
1) insulted you while you were gone
2) cheated on that election. Includes PMs.
or say you're sorry, without any slanderous clauses, for slandering me.

This is tiring me out, so I figure everyone else must be ready to shoot us both.

 

[Provolution]

Ok, I end this here, no more harsh words from me until you start again.

 

[Provolution]

Epimethius, I apologize for my strong statements during your ban.
However, I have seen you slandering my epitaph in my absence (I was not banned though, but you sure considered me gone Late Term 2 and 3). However, you used your citizens group to mobilize votes, which was against the constitution, and several of us considered a CC, but some of the players I discussed with, said we should ignore it.
When you criticize my plans, these are merely destructive criticism meant to degrade my plans, and paints my role very black/white for your political gains, with no nuances.
You say you are backed by the Will of The People in undermining and attacking my work, where in fact it is "some" people, less than 30 %, as far as I read between the lines, a steadily decreasing number.

And yes, you have confronted me on every crossroad, and I debated the issue, where you sought degradation. You refer to stupid official names, word counts and in general
do everything but discussing organization and game mechanics. Regarding your repeated references to drug abuse, you seem to flag it quite high and proudly, and seems to be integral to your personality and character. Knowing little of you, that is one of the few references I have to your personality.

But go ahead, go ahead and play your Trump card, sue me, but you can't fire me (I hope Sir Donald III does not hear this ). I already got some stuff on you I kept aside for times like this.

However, you would do a fine Domestic Minister (amazed to hear this from a"glorified Spammer"), if you decided to work with people more than confronting them. By confronting me, you obviously saw the outcome.
You trashed my reforms proposals before, and seem bent on making that a habit, but don't whimper when you get something in return.
