Greetings to you infants.
I have returned in this time of trouble, to bring peace once more to your hearts and to comfort the mourning.
We stand now at a crossroads. We could all go our seperate ways and lose what has drawn us all together, that which has made us a community. I am not your leader, for we have none. We all have a say where we go; each has a small role to play.
I have walked among you since the early days. I have watched many of you grow from nothingness into greatness. I was there to lead the army of Midgard when we strode to make peace with the other Children of Peace. We were betrayed then, as many feel we are now.
But, I come to offer you hope. Hope that this is only the beginning. Not the end. A chapter in our lives has come to a close, let it not be our epilogue.
What message do I bring? Not one of peace. Not one of war. But one to strengthen you, in this time of despair. Read on, and see hope.
The Chosen of Midgard,
Jorem.

Well, guys, there you have it. Yeah, some of you figured it out all by yourselves.
First things first...my quote of the year...I am not GOA, I don't work for them, I don't even like them RightNow.
Now, I've put days of my life into these forums, and have received nothing but flames (and yes, some thanks) from a lot of people. I have stayed up late into the night to do CC when things were going bad. I didn't have to. But this MY community. And I'll be damned if it falls apart.
So, what do we do? Well, Kemor/Zargar are the simply the messengers here. They've had their hands tied for a long time. Kemor is a great guy, and has YOUR interests as his priority. He wants this to work for YOU, not for him, sure, it's his job, but it's his passion too. The people that chose to close the forums pobably never read the forums. Well, maybe once in a while to see how many flames there are. Kemor isn't the boss, and when things go wrong, he could often be the last in the line to hear. Hopefully, with the way the homepage is going, that'll all change.
What about me? What will I do? Well, I've given it some thought. These (DAoC) forums will probably be closed VERY soon, and I need to find a new home. Some of you may have noticed already that I've moved to Barrysworld. Now, before you go screaming bloody murder, yes, they're primarily a NON-rpg forum. But, they're offering us a home. And I would really, REALLY like to keep us all together. They have a somewhat decent structure, and they allow flames of GOA, etc. to a certain degree.
So, I, Brannor, appeal to you all to go there, that we may continue our community, albeit nomadic.
What else? Well, yes, I was Jorem, I poured a lot of time into him as well, and he got deleted. Just like these forums. I make you this promise, that I will do my utmost to make any future event I'm involved in better than the EoB event. We learnt a lot from that, and the team is eager to get started. I can't tell you when, because I don't know. But trust me, not a week has gone by, or will go by, in which I don't bug Kemor/Zargar about them. Oh, and my apologies to the Hibbies and Albies which I "slaughtered" in the EoB, that was rude of me.
So, my friends, my enemies, I ask of you to help me recreate OUR community. I cannot do it alone. I need your help.
That pretty much covers it.
I'll post this on a few forums around the Net. I hope you'll join me at my new home.

And so my children, we go forth once more apon the fields of war. Stay with me, for we are strong if we are many.
