Uh, I guess me or Jan. But for the record I don't like the arguments and the opinions of Griff are not nessecarily the opinions of The Galactic Coalition, or mine (I think Gash is pretty cool).
And Simon is right, there is no real Counter-Part on TGC, seeing as how you're th boss of TGC too.
Dolash, Griff isn't the actually boss, he just makes suggestions and we usually follow them(though in hindsight there are a few things I would have changed). The real bosses are me and you. Griff is our military adviser(and most issues that we have had concern the military, so it may seem that he is the boss).
Simon, Griff approached us awhile ago on this, and we agreed(after a long discussion). In fact the idea has been kicking around for a long time. Both Dolash and I have agreed to this and accept the merge.
Griff, I was purposely not say, the staff is being biased, but I did raise the same points.
And yes, I for one want to get this merge going. We agreed a while ago the merge would start on the 1st, but Griff managed to post the thread before I could.
I will be the first to always stand up for the staff whenever my groups try to call them biased toward TNO because I know first hand that they aren't, and I try to trust the staff whenever possible.
However this is a blatantly biased attempt to try to manipulate the rules and it's very obvious. I am sorry for any disrespect this shows the staff - I know they work hard to keep this community up - but this is not a legimate try to make sure everything is acted upon within the bounds of the rules.
This is grasping at some way to keep ORS and GC from merging.
