      IRC Nickname: His Lordship Group: Founder Posts: 6029 Member No.: 1 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 129    | I was clearing out my drawer a few minutes ago. I found this letter. Look at the date on it.  Transcript:
-------------------- I think Penny would have wanted you guys to read this. This letter is everything WG is supposed to be. We take the outcasts, the people who are different, as well as the normal people. We take away all the differences between us. Those people that remember Gundam will remember he wasn't great with his social skills. He was quiet and would often get into fights with people. We still have a few members in WG like that right now. But look at the difference we made. We gave him something truly valuable for his REAL life. WG is not just a clan guys. We don't just hold RS events. There's so much more to us. We are a real family, and those of us that we may not get along with... Well we still try. Letters like Penny's offer us a tiny glimpse into the Guardian Spirit. They remind us that through all the struggle, no clan will ever be better than WG. I'm very proud to have spent so many years sharing these experiences. Please guys, respect every member. Gundam developed social skills in WG. He later told me he'd finally started making real life friends. I'm really proud of how far he's come. Why did I not let him back into WG? If you really want to know send me a PM, but it's personal. Basically the message I'm trying to get across is this. We have the strongest, most powerful community. That is my greatest pride in you guys. I'm asking that you treat all members equally, and learn to get along with them. There's something special in this clan that will never die. We have a mission to bring good times to anyone who wants them from us. Stand proud guardians. --------------------  | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Karlfischer Group: Ex-Member Posts: 664 Member No.: 124 Joined: January 12, 2008 Total Events Attended: 55 | Perfectly put. Most clans exist solely for the sake of RS; we exist first and foremost as a community, and if RS were to die I think we are strong enough that we would continue as a clan. I remember Gundam...I think I actually still have him as a contact on MSN. Pretty good guy, even though I remember us having a few problems with him on raids. He really did improve though, and I think the dicipline he learned from raiding was definitly good for him. --------------------   | ||||

| IRC Nickname: Group: Guests Posts: Member No.: 0 Joined: January 1, 1970 Total Events Attended: 1 | When I was first grounded from RS for a substantial amount of time my mom told me if I wanted it back that I should write a letter to her requesting it. If any of you remember, what it turned into was an 18000 character, 14 page masterpiece. She read the entire thing and the part that brought my mom nearly to tears was the end in which I included a testimonial section. 30 or so members of both WG and EH wrote substantial paragraphs saying what I had brought to them and why it would hurt them for me to not be allowed on RS anymore. At that time I realized that my RS friends are not just RS friends. They are people that have helped shape me into who I am today. They are not people who I will ever meet in life, but they are people who I care about as though they were standing in front of me living and breathing nonetheless. -------------------- | ||||

This is a family, I've seen stronger bonds here than just about anywhere in the real world, because real world relationships suck! Here we have all the strengths of friendship and compassion without the drawbacks of having to actually be there and do stuff. It's amazing how it works out, but it really does wonders for people. -------------------- -=}¤- Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici -¤{=- W I N N I N G | ||||

I so agree with BTO, my parents can't understand why I spend countless hours attending wars/playing rs. They don't have a clue about the bonds we share, even if it over the internet. There is so many people here who mean an awful lot to me.  <3 --------------------  | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Indivi2you Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 5361 Member No.: 43 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 623 | Yes indeed, Stand proud Guardians! Whenever i get into a brawl with a fellow member, i think of things like this. If i disrupt something, i can cause that member to leave, and possibly others as well. It can also cause others to dislike me. I try to do my best to get it over with in a nice calm way. or try to crack a joke. Anything to just stop it. WeeGee, be nice to your fellow members, they are you brothers/sisters/parents in another way. They are here for you to talk to, and here for when you need something. Don't let little things ruin this.
