hmmm not for the first time my names been brought into a thread on here without my knowledge and I seem to now be in the middle of some stuff I didn't ask for.
I know myself and I know from previous experience I'm probably going to say stuff on here that on reflection will probably be a mistake and is going to get me flamed ... oh well ... it'd probably be better to say nothing and let it die down ... but then thats not me so here goes:
To set the record straight:
I am not a member of DS DOW or any other clan, I am open to offers and would love to join a clan, the people I know best on Sloth are mostly DS but I have to affiliation to that or any clan. I would be mortified if I thought anything I did caused problems for DS.
I have no vendetta against DOW (or any clan) nor against any member of DOW (or any other player), I am not trying to piss anyone off or annoy anyone. There are players here I don't like, but I'll carry on in my own way of ignoring them, not joining their groups but still rushing to raise or CR for them if I'm in a position to do so.
I have helped a newbie by the name of DoW out considerably both in terms of equipment, gold, corpses to get his first juju and probably most importantly with advice.
I have introduced him to some of what I consider the best / most helpful players on here and wish him all the best.
Further I have suggested to a small number of players that they may wish to give him a hand.
My reason for doing this, apart from my good nature (I've done this to a lesser extent for many new players), is that he was getting hassled by as I understand it 3 members of DoW who took offence at his name or wanted to buy his char.
I told him not to make a quick decision and gave him eq and gold worth at least 3 times the best offer he'd had, which was a paltry offer at best, I also suggested he get in touch with the clan leader (sorry I've no idea who that is) and explain his name choice and see if there was likely to be ongoing problems and try to come to some arrangement if need be.
To be completely frank I will admit that I find the fact that he's running around with the name Dow and there are clan members with his name in their title funny, personally I find that hilarious, but then I'm warped.
