 		He came into Vent the yesterday or something saying that someone was royally pissed about something or not wanting something to happen because of a load of SL hack attempts. I'd say he can be considered IG.

Can anyone verify that he's not really being hacked? This is kind of fun. I like the pm becoming a character in his own arg, if that's what's happening here. It's new to me at least

If you go back a few pages you'll find my first string of e-mails with saul. I think the second string is very interesting:

saul
Quote:
Oh, that's right. I am a false king. I am a pretender to the throne.

You fool. How dare you.

Who is the false king, the one who actually has something to say, or one
of the two jokers who masqueraded as some kind of benevolent, pseudo-wise
"guides" for a pack of lost sheep? A lot of good they did you, crashing
and burning. A lot of good they did the lot of you, running this whole
thing into the ground and leaving everyone high and dry. Go home, folks,
the show is over. How greedy. How weak. Where are your leaders now?
What art, information, chaos or love are they bringing you? I fail to see
it. Please, point it out to me. You can't. It doesn't exist.

The moment someone with substance shows up (returns) you all resist, lest
you have to actually learn something. God forbid that happens.

I AM YOUR KING.


Me
Quote:
Art, Information, Chaos AND Love are all very alive and well in the relationships between the former passengers. and if hamwar is a way to keep in touch, than so be it. All four qualities are still alive and well and flourishing in us and it doesn't matter what we are doing. Those things will not fade.
Where is the love in what YOU are doing? Where is the art is accusation? what information is gained via revenge?
Find a mirror.
It's time for Saul to become Paul.

~Melody, a sovereign.


*a day passes*

Me:
Quote:
Saul,
Have you tired with me already, your Highness? Or have I offended you?
In either case I must say I am disappointed. I was excited for a moment that things were really coming round again.
I want to make it very clear that I mean you, as a person, no disrespect in what i have been saying. It's only that I'm being brutally honest, and honesty is something i value greatly, so I'd like to ask complete honesty from you as well. And I'd also like it if your replies are really replies to me, and not just cookie cutter blanket messages that get sent me me and 12 of my friends. If you want to talk to me, talk to me. If you want to spread propaganda, find another way to do it.
Were Silverladder, the deck, and all the wonderfulness that it was really being restarted, rebuilt, and reborn, i would love NOTHING more than to rejoin and swear fealty to the royalty therein, but to be honest sir, You just don't seem like what a royal should be. I don't see in you the qualities of love that is inherent in the deck. While as a spade you may value and identify with chaos more, you are still part of the deck as a whole and thus are called to show in some ways, love.
This, what you are hinting at doing, is tyranny.
I will not be oppressed.
If, however, you want to speak to me honestly, show me the good in yourself, and the good in the deck, and the truth in your words, i would love NOTHING more than to enter your kingdom. Until that point is reached, i will remain in my neutral area, which by the way, is out-of-bounds to you.
I'm through blindly accepting things. I'm not playing the flatterer, nor am i playing the offender or the name-caller. I'm being real. I'm giving you the full story. I expect as much from you.

-Melody, Still Sovereign.


Saul:
Quote:
You've touched on something, child. You've touched on something so pure,
so basic, so classic. You've touched on something overlooked by all
others.

You have the power to remove the thorn. Others are so quick to convict,
so slow to look for resolution.



So, lets find the thorn!

 		Saul has given me another reason to dislike him. Good Job, Saul. Good Job.

You can search for the thorn, I'm going to stick with resistance.

Continuing string:

Me:
Quote:

Saul,

I've never been able to accept anything [with the exception of Jesus etc] as wholly good or wholly bad.
We, as people can Never judge one another. I am in no position to judge you, or your motivations in this, or too convict you.
I can only be myself and call things as I see them. And i see GREAT potential in this "rising from the rubble" you've been referring too. I see the potential for a second wind at silverladder. I see the potential for more friendships to be forged, more lessons to be learned, more challenges to overcome. I see the potential for growth and art and beauty and knowledge and frivolity and love. And If it's possible I want to do what i can to make that potential a reality.
part of my effort in doing that was my original warning that the passengers have disbanded and will not just accept a new wave blindly, especially not a tyrannical one. I know from experience that there are a lot of passengers with fiery resolve who are quick to launch rebellions, and it's in your best interests not to spark that flame.
Maybe one thing that was missing in the first wave was a passenger's guide for the deck. A liaison. A barometer. A go-between. I feel that so much bad could have been avoided if there had been more communication, not just with the guides, but with everyone, about motivations and desires and problems.
Silverladder was wonderful and the relationships forged therein are ones i will cherish for the rest of my life. And if the potential to recreate that is really there, I make a commitment to do whatever I can for that cause.
You speak of a thorn to remove. Where should I look?

~Melody Joy


Saul:
Quote:

Perhaps it isn't where you should look, but where I should look. I would
do so, but it's so hard to see.


me:
Quote:

Is it hard to see because you are still in the dark, or because your eyes have yet to adjust to the light?

 		I sent tranny2 a message in binary asking if he knew what saul was up to and that we wouldnt stand for his crap. My intention was to see if tranny2 answered or if saul answered. Here is the reply:

Quote:
you can't stop the train. get on, move out of the way, or be destroyed. this message will repeat.


I wrote him a poem in response:

Quote:
hiding in the shadows
stealing secrets meant for others
predictability at it's finest
you've already gone and killed your brothers

your return is filled with hatred
you seethe while oozing spite
you see nothing but a battle
we see no requisition of a fight

the passengers believe as they believe
in the end we stand as one
you can try with your division
but all you hold is an empty gun


Remember that we really are one. If we let a division happen we run the risk of ruining what we have worked so hard for. Understanding, tolerance, respect, unity, information, chaos, love, art...

 		I got another binary message that translated to lion or serpent.
that in combination with the lines about head wounds and being reborn etc. has led me to the conclusion that this, saul, this new wave, is either christ or anti-christ. good or evil. we must decide. and then decide who to stand for.
