the way things are...

Every once in a while your friendly neighborhood MO gets inspiration, this instance is no different so let the 2 hour read commence.

everyone has a "when i first joined the ja story" to share, some good, some bad. one thing that holds constant is the fun times a person has here at the ja, whether it be rp'ing with peeps on the servers or just having a few duels with everyone. Me personally i like having fun with everyone but wasnt exactly giving off that vibe.

Not so long ago we had a cleansing of the ranks if you will. Now while change is a good thing this "purge" has done a few things for the ja and especially for me. For me it has been a real eye opener as to how wrapped up in the ja i am/was and the truth of the matter was i actually had a hard time accepting not being ranked at one point (pathetic). Now I realise that its help me find my "roots", like where i started, how i used to be, the way it all made me feel then. I mean i wasnt striving for rank because i didnt feel i was up for that skillwise, only attitude wise.

Knowing where you fit in the ja can be a hard thing if its diluted by the will/need/want to be ranked, even its for the soul purpose of passing on knowledge and seeing the people you teach start winning at the game we all love so much to play.

Most of you have seen me lash out at people here and there (sometimes more here's than there's) and the only real reason for this would have to be because of the example i learned early on as being the way people are to act on the servers combined with me having been ranked. So for that i appologize. But do know that when i react to something that happens here or there it mostly was me adjusting to my new position in the ja as student. if I went off on you and it was a just complaint but was not handled in the most nice of language then i am truly sorry. (right motive + wrong approach = just got no where)

I feel very strongly i have adapted well to things as of now and i look forward to pushing forward. i mean after all even i can be a nice guy when all the planets are alligned right. :P just know that i have found myself again and am ready for the funtimes to roll on. i mean really guys, for those of you who have had those fun times with me know that i go to great extremes to make a person laugh and have fun. *coughfunobsessioncough* but anywho thanks for taking the time to read/post/insult/<3 here and lets all just put that best foot forward and not up some ones arse, i know ill be trying.

If you felt outta sorts because of the purge, well, its understood - believe me. I never will feel that you needed to have anything taken away from you. You gave your all and this place was a better place for it. You gave so much time to this place, feeling a little irratation is normal. I still miss the hand of MOTREC justice and fairness when peeps get out of control. I had the most fun playing Jedi I ever had with you there. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. It was awesome when the whole server was almost dual users, what a time it was! Don't forget all that instagib training as well, omfg, that was insane! We see you for what you are MOTREC. You are funny, kind, helpful, fair, creative, and most of all a good friend to everyone. Let's salute MOTREC on the wonderful job he's done in the Academy!

Awesome stuff Mo. Yeah, alot of people don't understand that when you're not a JAK+ anymore, it takes some time to get used to it. You have to constantly remind yourself that it's not your job anymore. Of course, this sometimes can turn in the wrong direction for some. I won't point fingers, but there have been ex-JAK+ who have lost complete regaurd for the rules, as well as respect for the students of the community and JAK+. I'm glad you're not one of them, Mo. <3 ya! :)
