Me either guys but it is done. We cannot change it. You can only do what you think is right. I am deciding to stay, that is only because I am loyal to this clan. Even though Gandy is the one who recruited me. I feel it is my duty to carry the torch so to speak. I know I could never fill his shoes, but maybe I can have some kind of impact like he had on someone else.

you do what makes you feel best. The difference between Gandy and I should not weigh in on your decission. To bottom line it, there was a direction Gandy wanted to go, I didn't want the Clan the go there. Its that simple. To me online gaming is for fun, meet new people and have fun. there was just something u got to let go of. His leaving actually was not a suprise to me. He was not happy for a while now. So you do what u must. I'm here managing KIA as i have for 7 years now to play games, meet new poeple and have fun within our very few rules we have. anything else takes it to a level of "have to" which to metakes away the fun. I "have to" do enough in my life. Playing Games is my choice and disconnect from my "have to's" confusing i kow, but do what you must....... Being here for 7 years, trust me this is not anyting new or unexpected. terminating our friendship?? well thats something u can ask Gandy about cuz that for sure wasn't my choice what so ever!

while i agree with zulu that our differences shouldnt weigh in on anyones decision, i realize it does matter to people...even if it doesnt to zulu.

so..seeing as zulu decided to explain the way he sees it, so shall i.

Rule 7 of KIA membership states:
"As a member of KIA you will be expected to have your fellow clan members back
You must be ready to help any KIA member when the needs call for it
There is no room for one upsmanship in KIA
Failure to protect your clans mates will result in the forfieture of KIA benefits"

I agree with it fully. Be it in KIA or any clan. I simply think that members who dont keep up with whats happening in a clan cant be called upon to help when the need calls for it. To me its simple...I, as well as zulu and many others, have helped many members with many different things. I see no reason for those who have been helped not offer to help someone else. If they cant, I see no reason for them to share the honor of wearing a tag with those who do. I have been told there is no "I" in team and boy do I agree with that. Its just to bad we didnt say that to those members who did little to nothing to ADD to KIA. Are there exceptions to every rule? Absolutely. But the exception shouldnt become the norm

Zulu states he has been here managing KIA for 7 years. If any KIA member who reads this asks himself honestly who they thought was running KIA these last 2-3 years, the real answer of who was managing KIA becomes clear. Of course it will be said that the way KIA was heading was not the original intent of those who created KIA. I dont know about that as I wasnt there then. But no one can deny that the way KIA was run up until this split could be called anything less than a sucess.

I agee with zulu saying gaming should be fun, but disagree if he thinks there isnt any work involved in it either. It is work......for all those who helped in any endeavor we, as KIA embarked upon. It took time to make the videos, the websites, the servers. Yea ...I know...it was our choice. I just think that those choices we made to do these things was what made KIA what it was. While it was fun for all of us who did them, it was work as well. It was our time that we all took and for zulu to say its just a game cheapens the time and work we did put into it. And that includes zulu himself. Now..zulu is certainly entitled to his ideas and beliefs. And although I respect him for his, I just dont agree with him. I cant see it the way he does no matter how hard I try. Now who's to say I am right and zulu is wrong or zulu is right and I am wrong. It doesnt matter..we can simply agree to disagree......move on.....and go from here. I see many positive possibities that can arise from this.

So..for those who struggle with what to do? Just follow your heart and let the rest of it all go. Neither zulu nor I will hold a grudge towards anyone for whatever they decide.

and zulu?...if they ask me about our terminating our friendship over this i can simply say i cant be a friend to someone who asks me to not take it personally when someone wants me to go against what i think is right or wrong. i remember when you came to me about putting up servers for you. I did it because thats what you did for me. I can only imagine how long my KIA life would have been had I told you I wouldnt help you with that though.

I think this is how the people that are staying feel. KIA will replace the people it lost in the future. In 6 months we will all forget this ever happened and KIA will continue to be KIA.
