[14:59:33]Matthew_Cole: Because alot of the CW is one sided in intent and never

acknowledges the other side.

[14:59:46]stillsnowedin: Everyone running for office during the election is going to

try to improve the current conditions.

[14:59:57]Matthew_Cole: Can't make a concentration camp better.

[15:00:01]stillsnowedin: If you think you have what it takes to turn the place around,

you should register.

[15:00:16]stillsnowedin: And share your ideas so that we can all benefit.

[15:00:36]Matthew_Cole: Stop telling me I should register. I was a Lord of Ironside

before I left the government.

[15:00:40]Matthew_Cole: I have my reasons.

[15:00:51]stillsnowedin: That was the first time I mentioned it... but okay.

[15:00:59]Matthew_Cole: First and last.

[15:01:04]Matthew_Cole: Don't act like I never voted.

[15:01:08]stillsnowedin: If you don't intend on helping and don't enjoy being here...

why are you still in CW?

[15:01:25]Matthew_Cole: I answered that same question a few sentences back.

[15:01:43]stillsnowedin: You didn't answer why you haven't left yet.

[15:02:04]Matthew_Cole: Should I have an obligation to say everything i'm doing? Am I

going to get a background check?

[15:02:17]Matthew_Cole: Will you search my belongings to see if i'm who I say I am?

[15:02:32]stillsnowedin: No, you're just very vocal about your dislike of the place

so I'm curious why you bother to stay.

[15:02:48]Matthew_Cole: Stop rephrasing the same question. I already answered it.

[15:03:13]stillsnowedin: Could you repaste your response then? I think I missed it.

[15:03:41]Matthew_Cole: I basically said someone has to be here to say what others

won't say.

[15:03:49]stillsnowedin: Ah.

[15:03:57]stillsnowedin: What good is talking if you're not willing to act?

[15:04:01]Bypass mode enabled

[15:04:41]Matthew_Cole: Didn't I previously mention that I dropped my lordship of

Fort Ironside(A borough I founded) for

[15:04:44]Matthew_Cole: reasons?

[15:04:50]stillsnowedin: Yes, you did.

[15:05:13]stillsnowedin: I'm just confused, I guess. You've made it clear that you

dislike CW.

[15:05:14]Matthew_Cole: After the first election took place, alot of peoples egos

took over. The government worked sorta

[15:05:19]stillsnowedin: You don't believe it will get better.

[15:05:26]stillsnowedin: And you don't want to leave.

[15:05:42]Matthew_Cole: then but soon once the new people including Peter came

then everything went downhill.

[15:06:00]Matthew_Cole: Very few matters went by others and only got Kings

approval without asking anyone else how they felt

[15:06:10]stillsnowedin: Ahh, I see.

[15:06:11]Matthew_Cole: This ignored my rights as a citizen and meant that I just

had to deal with it.

[15:06:29]stillsnowedin: Then everyone sort of picked their own borough and did

what they wanted?

[15:06:41]Matthew_Cole: The walls didn't exist previously in the early days but it

happened and I didn't like it.

[15:06:52]Matthew_Cole: I felt it ruined alot of what we had going for the CW.

[15:07:01]Matthew_Cole: Then Peter came along and added the doors.

[15:07:23]Matthew_Cole: It pushed me over the edge because it showed that

everyone but CW citizens had to be privileged

[15:07:40]stillsnowedin: It wasn't a democracy.

[15:07:42]Matthew_Cole: enough to access the place or else they'd be unable to do

anything.

[15:07:52]Matthew_Cole: This was founded as a Parliamentary Democracy.

[15:07:59]Matthew_Cole: No rules went through parliament.

[15:08:02]Peter5930: Yeah, all those poor griefers who have to deal with locked

doors

[15:08:05]Matthew_Cole: No changes did.

[15:08:23]Matthew_Cole: Not ONE.

[15:08:36]stillsnowedin: You were a Lord though, didn't you get privilieges too?

[15:08:55]Peter5930: Yeah, check your privilege dude.

[15:08:56]Matthew_Cole: I did but I did alot more foreign relations work than

anything.

[15:09:26]Matthew_Cole: Reasons why Lio was cool was us was because of the

effort I went through.

[15:10:11]Matthew_Cole: Did you know I actually started that whole entire

relationship we had with them? No? Fun fact.

[15:10:48]stillsnowedin: Having a foreign relations rep would have lots of benefits.

[15:10:49]Matthew_Cole: I've done alot of little things that have turned into big

things. My contributions were minor but bi

[15:10:58]Matthew_Cole: big.

[15:11:15]stillsnowedin: Would you ever considering doing that work again?

[15:11:18]Matthew_Cole: No.

[15:11:47]stillsnowedin: What about other kinds of work, like building or organizing

projects?

[15:12:14]Matthew_Cole: As I said, i've contributed alot to this place. More than you

know.

[15:12:45]stillsnowedin: I believe you. You care (or used to) a lot about the city.

[15:13:41]Matthew_Cole: I still care but I know my efforts are in vain as they

constantly get ignored.

[15:13:59]Matthew_Cole: I'm basically martyred for saying what needs to be said.

[15:14:17]stillsnowedin: Maybe that will change after the elections? Once we have

proper leadership.

[15:14:28]Matthew_Cole: If the CW has never had it then it will never have it.

[15:15:04]stillsnowedin: Maybe something has been missing.

[15:15:52]Matthew_Cole: Being that most old members are gone and that the vision is

askew then no...you can't fix what is

[15:15:55]Matthew_Cole: forever broken.

[15:16:40]stillsnowedin: Think of it as an evolution. The original ideas will never be,

but something else that is equally

[15:16:42]stillsnowedin: good could be.

[15:17:09]Matthew_Cole: Keep that vision but it's better fit for a newer place, not an

older city.

[15:17:30]stillsnowedin: That's true. There will be a lot of clean up work.

[15:18:09]Matthew_Cole: Remove the doors, take down the walls, fix the pathing, make

all votes go through parliament and not

[15:18:26]Matthew_Cole: because you feel like it, make elections actually happened

as planned, don't ignore the constitution

[15:18:36]Peter5930: But you won't do any of that, right?

[15:19:25]Matthew_Cole: Neither will you.

[15:19:36]Peter5930: I do that stuff all the time

[15:19:43]Peter5930: Then you bitch about it

[15:19:53]Peter5930: And say it's ruining the city

[15:19:57]Matthew_Cole: Building a fort = your contribution?

[15:20:04]Matthew_Cole: All you have been contributing to is paranoia.

[15:20:15]stillsnowedin: I think your negative outlook puts people off, but your

ideas are in line with what the rest of us

[15:20:18]stillsnowedin: are trying to achieve.

[15:20:31]Matthew_Cole: I don't believe you understand my ideas but act like you do.

[15:22:00]stillsnowedin: Open the borders, find peace through diplomacy, and have a

real democracy.

[15:22:56]Matthew_Cole: Well, yeah, and not be so closed in.

[15:23:16]Peter5930: And put signs up for griefers directing them to your house.

[15:23:39]Matthew_Cole: None of my buildings have been griefed for a long while

because I don't piss people off like

[15:23:43]Matthew_Cole: you do, Peter.

[15:24:21]Matthew_Cole: As I said, the iron doors are more for your protection

even if they don't protect jack shit.

[15:27:01]stillsnowedin: Protection is a difficult thing in this game. We need to work

together to be effective.

[15:27:39]Matthew_Cole: I like how my point was literally proven the moment you

posted that post about me, Peter.

[15:28:37]Peter5930: You don't want your views to get a wider audience?

[15:29:46]Matthew_Cole: If it ends with being told to be ignored then it sure proves

that my thoughts aren't worth anyones

[15:29:47]Matthew_Cole: ime.

[15:30:15]stillsnowedin: I think your thoughts are good, it's the attitude that rubs

people the wrong way.

[15:30:24]Peter5930: I can't help what other people say

[15:31:12]Matthew_Cole: It's my personality.

[15:31:40]Matthew_Cole: Kind of offensive but it's how you get the point in someones

head.

[15:32:08]stillsnowedin: Is that what you did to create foreign relations?

[15:32:16]Matthew_Cole: Nope, I was different then.

[15:32:38]Peter5930: New meds?

[15:32:52]stillsnowedin: Well, you already know then that people react differently

based on how you address them.

[15:32:59]Peter5930: Bug crawled up your butt?

[15:33:30]Matthew_Cole: Americans revolt against your country, Peter? Oh, wait,

yep...that's just world history.

[15:34:00]Peter5930: Yes, the famous US-Scotland war.

[15:34:14]Matthew_Cole: England.

[15:34:24]Matthew_Cole: Well, Brittania...

[15:35:11]Matthew_Cole: Anyway, i'm getting off because I have to get doing errands

soon. Nice to see Peter only showing
