Lots of gold for eIrish !
Bhane
Soon I will be melting down my companies into thousands of gold. I want to send that gold in a max 10g donation to the citizens of eIreland. I will repeat these donations each day until I have no gold left.
This means I need your help compiling a list of EVERY active eIrish citizen. Please fill out this form with your name, link, created date, and a quick line about how long you have been eIrish. The box is so people who immigrated can approximate when they moved here, and people who are on a second/third profile can add in previous years.
FORM >>>>> HERE
eIrish employers, MU commanders, and captains
Not everyone reads the media, so please submit entries for active soldiers and employees. Look at your list of fighters who have hit, and employees who have worked recently. I want to get the most complete list possible. Don't worry about submitting a name who may send the form on their own, I can weed out the doubles. I would rather get their name 2-3 times, than not at all.
This probably won' be a lifechanging amount for people, but I figure everyone will get dozens of gold before I'm out. I can't give accurate estimates to the final amount since the final tally could be 100-200ish citizens. There's a pretty wide range of end results we could see. Please make sure your MUs and parties know about the form, and fill it out.
I originally thought I was going to leave by moving to another country. But there is no other country for me, I love eIreland too much. If I cannot live here, then I must leave the game entirely. I'm getting rid of my buildings so I won't have that temptation to come back. Once this project is over, I will 2-click for a few days looking for an opportunity to unload all my EBs in a final blaze. Then I will be gone.
Be well all,
Bhane
P.S. A special thank you to Ian E Coleman for creating the googleform for me.

Really sorry to see you go and having to do this to get peace, I'm sure i speak for everyone in saying this (well all the decent people), and hope everything turns out fine in RL
I'm not leaving to "get peace".
This has absolutely nothing to do with RtKurgan's trolling. That, I can handle. I'm leaving because the country is choosing a new direction, and does not want players like me anymore.
Still... I appreciate the sentiment very much. Thank you, Nog.
You have to stay in Ireland, specially as I do. 🙂
what new direction?? 😒
Anyone who cares about Ireland will not sign up for his gold. Wise up and stick around.
don't leave us Bhane 🙁
I wondered your reason to leave
change nation, fight only, troll but don't leave 🙁
I do hope you change your mind, Bhane. Your retirement will be the unravelling of a golden thread in the fabric of erep life.
When you've calmed down, melting all your companies will seem like a bad idea in hindsight. This moment will pass and you'll have clarity on exactly what you want out of this game.
I am calm. This is not a moment that will "pass."
You should be happy, you will be able to write whatever history you want to create. You have made your decision about the new kind of player eIreland prefers, and most people of influence agree with you.
I won't give sympathy for upsetting you, Bhane. I've criticized the way you handled Immigration for 3 months now, after I began investigating as CC 4 months ago. Recent events with Labour might have eroded your support to ignore my criticism, but then all I can say is that you should reflect on your position.. rather than slander mine.
This is an entirely inglorious reason to quit, but wish you well in real life and it was a pleasure playing with you.
Creatures of influence like CLerics do not agree with Seanan.
I have always liked you a lot and appreciate everything you have done for the country. You will be missed. When people do as much as you have done they can tend to take the game too seriously. I have been there myself. It is good to take a break. Better to go two clicking for a month then quiting. Take care my friend.
I'm not taking a 2-click break, that's why I'm getting rid of my companies.
You take care, too.
What if I don`t have eIrish citizenship, but love Ireland very much, is it possible to get anything?)
Erin Go Braugh!
I refuse to Vote for this.
I refuse to request any gold from you.
I refuse to help you compile a list, even though I have an extensive list of active eIrish from my work in the Irish Army and MoE.
I even refuse to shout this article for younger players, even though they need the gold more than others.
I do wish you well, but I dont want to be part of this, because I believe strongly that its a rash action and one that you will regret.

I will not fill out the form, as I won't accept your gold.
There are areas we definitely have disagreement on, but you are someone that I respect greatly. If you choose to carry this out, the community will be a lesser place for your loss. Wherever your ventures take you, I wish you fair winds and smooth sailing.
It saddens me that it's come to this. If you do carry on with this idea, eIreland will be losing one of it's best fighters, a top manager and all round decent person. Please think again.

Pretty much all above minus Seanan's and Oleh's comments x2
Egad, Bhane!
Best of luck, evil mouse.
Just remember, for every NARF! there is a POIT!
Think again Bhane, we need ppl with ideas !
I'm going to sign that damn petition.
No Bhane, please don't do this, you will regret it, I will miss you, eIreland will miss you.
There's many more things I wanted to do with you here, please reconsider this before sending anything to anyone, before melting your companies. No one won't get mad if you change your mind.
Please 🙁
Good luck. Breaks can be good. You are a great player.
You leaving this game could be the lowest point in my elife. I'm positive the same is true for others. The day is bound to come for all of us, but don't let it come for you yet. Please reconsider.
I strongly urge you to re-consider what you are about do. eIreland needs players like you sticking around and some people may not agree with your opinions but you are a valuable citizen to us.
In this case I won't take any gold from you as I know you will regret this decision.
You won't leave, you can't.
To distribute all that gold will take well over a year.
Sorry Bhane, your here to stay.
I have a mission to bring you Bhane back to the light.
Since you joined Orcs your path was dark...
You must stay so CLerics can save your soul from damnation in claws of SATAN!
Ahem you sound like me 😛
I did this thing about 7 times in all now. Dissolved everything, gave away everything, started new account from scratch etc etc to keep away.
The thing is, I see that you are quitting because someone said something,
You can't please everyone. That is the fact. Sometimes, people deliberately take you for a ride too. So, if you love playing this game, love eIreland and enjoy it, then do stay. Don't make your decision now. Defer your decision making to say one more week. Don't dissolve your companies.
And play the way you want to play. Take the slings and arrows as a challenge. Stay strong. This will be a nice training ground for RL 😃
You never much liked me (consequences of being a knavish prick on my part o/) but regardless I've always had much respect for you, it's sad to see you leave
all the best
Please don't leave Bhane! You have to prepare for tomorrow night...!
'I originally thought I was going to leave by moving to another country. But there is no other country for me, I love eIreland too much. '
I know that feeling all too well.
Very sad to see you go Bhane, It's been a privilege to watch you push us back single handedly several times.
Glad you're going to die a socialist. You made me proud, bro. 🙂
I didn't have any personal dealings with you in this game, but from what I saw/read about you I agree with all of the positive comments above mine. Good luck in RL.
Leaving I could understand, but melting your companies seems like folly.
If you don't want them, give them to me god damn it! 😛
I don't know what any of the hoo-hah is about, but I hope you'll chill and think it through. I'd miss you a lot if you left.
Do you realise that your own policies have been in polar opposition to mine for a very long time, but I still respected you and didn't expect you to change your strategy to suit my own ideas?
Why do you think everyone should play to your own idealised version of eIreland? (which is largely BS , btw 😛 )
Your explanation above seems to be a whiny way to go, for a player who put a lot into the game, Bhane !
I think that this is really a crisis of belonging, or not...
For years you've been invited into various groups, MUs, initiatives etc, but you've always refused. You have deliberately isolated yourself and seem oblivious to the impact it has had on you. You've wanted to be friends with everyone and no-one at the same time. That just can't ever work. It's a team game, Bhane, not solitaire.
We've known each other a very long time, and it's clear that the community in eRep plays an important part in your life. So why cut your nose off to spite your face?
So what if other people choose to play the game differently?
Man up Bhane, and think about it rationally. If you feel so strongly, oppose the ideas. If eIreland sticks in your craw, move on to another pixe-lcountry. Have an eAdventure ffs!
If you leave, both you and the game will be poorer for it.
Stay.
well said grainne as always
nailed it
i don't want to see your gold, i want to see you proud, facing your opponents. reconsider mate. things can be changed quickly in this game and in a country.
This saddens me greatly, Bhane. I will miss your voice of reason.

Ok, it would turn to "we luv Bhane" parade anyway 🙂 , so better state my view along
Well, tbh I'd support someone leaving eRep (which is total waste of time) but not for that reason. Ireland I know is long gone as well, so staying away no matter how much I love.
pity 🙁
Stay!
I haven't been here very long, but it saddens me when the more reasonable players wish to leave. I hope you change your mind and stay
.donate -h
You are leaving Bhane? But who is going to boat stuff? 🙁
