Solomon's Revenge

Yes, I was expelled from SI today. For what reason, that remains a mystery to me. But, before speculations run high and stupid rumors begin spreading, i want to say this as that is what i think is the reason for my ban.

From the beginning of me joining, i noticed that there was a problem with SI recruiting. Many leaders were either retired or inactive. The recruiters were mostly grey players and although they did tryout golds, they weren't the better gold players in the clan. Not only that, but the polls were not working well either. Some polls lasted weeks, many with one or no votes. During my stay in Si (about two months) maybe 2-3 new people were invited in. I doubt i was the only person to notice it, but nothing was being done. So i made a thread about it and it got put down.

Then, while online one day, me and matzer got into a pretty heated argument about recruiting. He was claiming that there was no one reliable enough to upgrade to the recruiter position and thats why the clan didn't have enough recruiters. I told him that being a recruiter wasn't something great and the only power you really had was voting in the polls. Plus, who cares how long you have been in the clan, if you are a good player, you should be able to vote. Without new recruits, the clan would die and i told Matzer so. Realizing that he was losing the argument, he threathened to expel me and left.

Then today, i get a pm from Mask saying that a leader made a thread about me in the leader's section about me being offensive towards other members. I've never been offensive to anyone and i told Mask that if someone had a problem with me, they should talk to me, not through him. Apperently, that pissed him off.

The last straw was probably the Stiv incident. I guess he thought i would have his back, but i told him straight up that he was wrong. He posed me today saying that he was spreading to neg Stiv and i pmed Mask on SI forums telling him not be a prick and that Stiv did nothing wrong. That pissed him off to.

So there you have it. My version of the story.

And as for the next clan that i will join, thats still a question. I have no idea. Maybe start my own, i dunno. Ideas anyone?

Edit:

I want to thank all the members of SI and all the people that make the clan a great place to be. Even though i will never have "Strategic Insomiacs" above my ingame avatar anymore, i still consider almost every member of SI as a good friend and a worthy player. Thanks for the good times and ill miss you guys.

Well, hmm...You can always PM Bottle for an invite. If you don't start the "Si > Nj" in netjak clan chat crap again. Because that was seriously immature and lame.

I highly suggest you join Celestial Knights. Don't listen to what other people say about the clan. Its mostly lies. Ck is a good clan, cept for that ugly noob Zadico who should be getting caught boosting anyday now .

The Fallen

This has been a problem with SI I think recently. Say one thing to a leader and they take it personally and just expel you. I've not had it happen personally, since I am Netjak or Nothing, however I've talked to a couple of people who've had it happen.

Shaky leadership: A reason SI will never be put in the same category as the "Great" clans (CK, Judge, NJ).

Yeah I agree with Respect there. I mean, you are a very active player, so you should join Celestial Knights, you can help them probably get their rep higher. So people won't say "Oh CK that NOOB clan". You should go there though.
