Open Letter to @Qbaka

I wanted to take a second to explain what happened during the MoITF I organized on 04/24/2010 (around 3ish EST). I sent you a PM once you were on the team (explaining that if you were not coming, that I would need to fill out the squad), but I did not have your character name (only your @global) and when I run a TF, I have a list of folks that I keep in terms of who wanted in, etc. As folks arrive, I right-click their names on the chat menu so that I can then scratch them from my list and continue to recruit more folks (if needed).

Your character was hidden, so I was unable to verify you had joined in the TF. When I sent the PM to you, it was to make sure that you were coming (because again at this time, I thought you were not on the team as of yet), and I had 7 players in for the TF. I NEVER had any intention of dropping you because I picked another player. I have been playing this game for a long time and have organized my fair share of TF over the years and I have never done something like that. When I put a call out for a TF, I do my absolute best to ensure that the order in which I was asked to join a TF is correct.

You did not really give me much of an opportunity to explain myself to you. You then decided to block me (which is again, your choice). In the end, I felt the need to explain myself in hopes that you or someone you know in-game can explain this to you.

Once again, I had ZERO intention of bumping you for anyone else, and if you felt that way, I do apologize. In the end, the Master run was not to be, but we all had a good time playing it, which is in the end, the reason we all play this game.

I hope that someone who knows you or you are able to read this and understand that this was simply a misunderstanding.

Thank you

@Armeros

By the few months I am here i can say that I know Armeros a little. And I can say that he is one of the best persons I have ever met on this community.

I had just joined the team when everything happened, and was a witness of how worried he got. Because he is always fair to everyone, and this was a mistake generated by the pesky hide system (never liked it, never used it, never will use it).

Is virtually impossible for someone to know/remember the name of all toons a person has, associating that with his global. Not even I can remember all the name of my own toons (and I am only talking about Guardian... i have a few toons I moved to other servers that I even cant imagine what their names are, except that they end with Nova).

Let this misunderstanding end. It wasnt intentional, and it happened with one of the best persons CoX has.

Hey, I was present for this incident. (I was Ironclad, the Tanker). There was a lot of banter and chatter as we were setting up, and I would imagine that the TF leader had even more going on in tells and channels while assembling the team.

I would have had a hard time keeping track of everyone as well as Armeros did. I also got to see how Armeros responded after the misunderstanding and how Armeros treated the other players, and for what it's worth, I am persuaded this was just an accident and no harm or disrespect was intended.

I know him, and will make sure he gets your message.

I wasn't on the TF, but I have seen Armeros in Guardian and Level 50 chat channel and run several TFs with him prior.

To be mad at this individual (no matter how ugly his toons are :P) is simply a crime against CoH. Armeros has been nothing but a fair player since I've known him.

my silly double posting is to blame for this.

I've team with him as well. Great guy!

Thanks, Wulf. I appreciate it.

Also wanted to say thank you and I appreciate the kind words from fellow players. I try my best to make the TF fun and organized and as free of drama-related issues as possible (I, along with the vast majority deal with more than enough drama in the real world). They may not all succeed, but they will never end in dispute or with folks pissed off for anything.

I have been with Guardian from when I first started and with good folks like yourselves, it will never give me reason to go anywhere else.

Thank you all.

Why do you think all mine wear masks >_>

Also....I r teh chubz in teh real worldz!
