"I'd also like you to stop refering to Mr Pious as a 'Longbow Picked Leader', such a position was underinvestigation, review and was indeed on suspention by the time the Warbug incident took place, only his unfortuante passing rendered the whole point moot!"

"Also according to the offical transcript of the incident, Mrs Longstaff, who totally doesn't deserve all these bad things that people are saying about her, did not open fire on Mr Pious until he started lashing out at the crowd who ahd gathered to see the fight, which we had to loose a good man to be used as a 'message'"

"And that's what I don't get here, espeically from you Geni, you seem to hero worship Arachnos, the same people who invaded -our- homes killed and injuried a lot of good people and would have done who knows what if they hadn't been driven off!"

Apologies for breaking the OOC flow, I really am but im just beginning to get confused by the whole situation, i'll happily settle this in pm's so the rest of the thread can carry on without the ramblings of a crazy man ))
((The issue is that directly after the fight with Kahn, Pious was perfectly healthy, healthy enough to start another fight, with people in the crowd who had just said somthing he didn't agree with, causing Molly among others to shoot him, his apparent fine state of health after teh Kahn fight, yet dying after the big brawl which indluded Molly makes it seem in universe that teh fatal damag was done by someone other then khan!))

A wave of irridescent colour sweeps over the figure's mask, for whatever reason.

"As far as I can gather from the conversation here, Pious was killed by a mercenary, not by Molly Longstaff. The 'conspiracy' put forward thus far is that she hired the merc and that this is being covered up. There's been no suggestion that she litterally pulled the trigger.

"And not all Unity Vigil members provide direct feeds of their activities to BODI. And not telling her things is not always because of a cover up."

Peacmaker's avatar stands up and emotes a shake of his head.

"Tempers are running high. They are bound to when a discussion of an event such as this occurs. However, I believe Longstaff to be in the clear. From my understanding of the situation, Molly Longstaff should incur no further penalty with regards to public opinion as she was one of many who were present during a conflict which amounts to the everyday skirmishes between Heroes and Villains.

The Villains of the Rogue Isles are, no doubt, laughing at the sudden wave of conspiracy theories generated by snippets of film, tidbits of gossip and probably, if Arachnos's track record is anything to go by, a campaign of propaganda funded by the Spiders."

The information box is updated, on purpose, and reflects the following:

Location: Freedom Corps Plaza, Galaxy City.
ID: FBSA E.L.I.T.E. 26481

"Freedom of speech prevents me from outing various members of this room who are suspected of drumming up opposition to the Hero involvement in Bloody Bay, Siren's Call, Warburg and Atlas Park. As does the EULA and other legal restrictions placed on account usage."

Peacmaker turns to Mimi Lolcat.

"You are free to ban this account at your discretion. I believe we have retrieved all the data needed in this exercise."

With that rather abrupt statement, the avatar logs out.

"Only an idiot ignores a source of potential information. Mind you, only an idiot reveals their hand like that. I'm a bit surprised at you, Blinky. You're willing to accept at face value what an avatar claims without even the slightest corroborative evidence?

"While I dislike witch hunts, and think most of the chatter in this room has consisted of wild rumours making little sense in an attempt to smear Longstaff, without corroborating evidence the 'FBSA statement' we just heard makes me more suspicious that Longstaff was involved. That was probably the lousiest, most foolish thing I've seen done in a chatroom in years."

The avatar absently sits down on a blue chair, though hovering on the edge, apparently still somewhat undecided.
