Truth of a Social Democrat-Resignation from all duties
KarlKorne
Well, Here it all is Irishmen and Irishwomen.
I came to Ireland as a young new player. One who had aspirations of building a stronger Ireland. So I joined Ireland and kept my mouth quiet for a few bit hours. Trying to learn the ropes and which I hadnt when I first started my first Article in Ireland. Many of you came to me and started to bash me for being a new player and little knowledge. Which I should have stayed quiet a bit more and started to learn the ropes more before diving in.
But The thing is, I am not that kind of person to sit back, I am a person of activeness and out and about. I prefer to be in the thick of things. Learning by hands on and actually performing things. And Ive learned quite a bit. Thanks to many people here I shall be naming and thanking them for personally for there help they have given and provided unto me.
I joined the Ireland Social Democrats party and saw the party was lingering into a slow death. I started a hopeful idea that maybe the party can still live on. That the party will be able to perform and eventually become a party of full status once again. But I was stalled by people who thought me a PTOer, When the truth was, I meant to bring the party back to life and keep it alive. And when I was backed by many people of various political parties, They gave me a new hope, That the ISD has a chance. But after election, I became a bit less active ircly and article wise. That is becuase I was constantly mailing members and spending time trying to build the ISD internally. But with no luck. The membership of ISD all claimed the party was dead and it should merge with another party. I took this discouragement to heart and it started to slowly kill my activity seeing that all my work and constant efforts were going no where.
This eventually started to effect me and the way I was. Being that most if not all my mentors stop guiding me and helping me keep strong to my cause. And thus I changed myself. I took a very negative place in ireland. Breaking myself and who I was. Who I wanted to be in ireland. For this I am writing this article. I desire to make it known to all my fellow citizens, I am deeply sorry for the way I have become over the last few days/weeks. I let people who negatively influenced and fought tooth and nail with me eventually make me what i am not. I lost myself trying to become better, I lost my way on the trail of light and now walk astray.
I would like to personally apologize deeply to Labour Party, Labour Party and members. I doubt any of you will ever forgive me, But I am sincerely sorry for the way i have been toward Labour lately. Labour was the first party ever to come to my help and they helped me become PP of ISD. For this I am deeply grateful and sorry that I have scorned those who helped me so much.I retract everything negative I ever said about Labour. Labour is very much a close relative to Social Democracy, And I burned my name and honor with you. By turning my back on my friends. I know you will not forgive me. I hope in time that some of you may forgive me.
And for those of the IFP,IUP. I owe you the same apology, Both as a party and individuals of the said parties. I spoke out of line about your parties, Admitting right now I know little about your political parties. I am sorry that spoke about your parties so coarsly without knowing much of anything about your specific parties, The ideals of the parties. Or what the parties have truly attained in its time. That i do not know. I wish to extend a deep heart felt apology. Especially to moomoo and a few others. You have all shown my kindness and even helped me along in becoming PP of ISD. I have scorned you just as much as Labour, I do not ever expect forgiveness. But I wish to make amends in time.
As for the individuals who beleived in me and have helped me so much since I started in Ireland and erep. I am sorry I let you all down. I am sorry I have failed to become what you all beleived to have potential.
paschoall- Thank you for being my private little confidant. You have always been there when i needed a ear for advice. Giving me sound advice which to perform and act upon. I am sorry for the way i have been lately,
Mr. Ginge- To you I probably owe the biggest and deepest apology to. You were the first person to actually show me any kind of political support. You were the first to help mentor me and you saw a good potential in me. You had won me support for ISD PP, You were there when I came asking for advice. You were there when I needed some form of experience on something I didnt understand. Your friendship to me is so important to me and I screwballed it royally. I beg for your forgiveness.
moomoo- What can I truly say but that you was the first person to offer me a political career outside of parties. You gave me more dreams and aspirations in ireland. You gave me more purpose and reasons to fight on and continue trying to build ISD. You offered me use of your parties seats for congress to help build ISD. I spit right back in your face recently. I shamed myself in your eyes and deserve not your forgiveness. You gave me career as a ambassador and motivated .
Darragh- Thank you for being the first person to ever get in touch with me. Your the one who motivated me to start trying to build up ISD. You gave me hope in the form of guidance in politics. Building ISD back to glory. But I have scorned you and disgraced myself by being so rude to our political neighbors. Im sorry for letting you down Darragh.
Sean Power- You gave me some nice wisdom mate, I even came to speak with you many times randomly about things. You were accepting and guided me with no to little criticism, And each time you told me what you would do. But told me do what i thought be right. I am sorry Sean i let you down as well.
Gruber-Probably one of the most vital friends and mentors I had, You was one of my closest and sought out for wisdom. Each time you gave me time and tried to guide me justly with my actions. You helped mold what good did come from me. But I have fallen from what I could have been. I am sorry for disgracing myself so much to you.
Connell- You was once a very active advocate and friend. You backed me and my candidacy as a member of PP for ISD. You never doubted my abilities, You encouraged me to stay strong and stay motivated. I am sorry but I have become weak and lost my way.
I am sorry to everyone I did not mention who have been there and helped me. You have all been good friends and did not deserve anything I said unjustly to any of you. You were very dedicated and loyal friends.You all helped build me up, But I threw it all aside out of personal disgust trying to build upon a dieing party. Trying to in a last ditch maneuver I had left. Forsaken who I was and what I believed in. I expect no one to forgive me ever.
I am also announcing after this term, I am not and will not seek any re-elections for political positions, I will also not re-seek ambassadorship to any of the countries I have built friendships with. I am resigning all forms of government positions and political positions I hold. I do not deserve them and they should be given to someone who will not falter such as I have.
I do ask that those who wish to give me a 2nd chance, To help guide me, Mentor me once again, Help me become someone better then I have become.

Don't worry about it.
I want to be among the first to forgive you Karl. I know I was not the most supportive, I hope that you can play an active role in the country, still. It takes a person of a certain moral build to apologize so publicly and admit their faults, for this I applaud you.
I'll take second to forgive you, you cannot be blamed for caring too much, and if anybody does, they made the same mistakes at one point. I hope you stay on in the government and ISD.
Yeah don't worry about, everyone gets a little heated at times in politics sooner or later. Better that you got to do that as an e-youngster actually, then not at all. Pushing through the cardinal rules of conformity is not naive.
I'm not to sure what to say, but I guess, Just don't give up fighting for what you believe in is necessary. Maybe some day ISD will arise, maybe...
Well if you have done some things that you are not proud of, who hasn't? We all make mistakes. Use the mistake, learn from it and make yourself a better player. People will forgive if you stick around and make up for mistakes made by doing good and being productive.
"That is becuase I was constantly mailing members and spending time trying to build the ISD internally."
.... whoops, maybe shoulda told you to concentrate on new citizens rather than members already present. Perhaps you underestimated the mammoth task that lay ahead in building a party practically from scratch. Even labour took what....2 months or something?... to hit top 5.
Don't let anyone else get you down... half the time its political posturing and the rest of the time it's political posturing 😛
Don't know you very well except what I've read but you seem like a genuine person Karl, just gotta be careful about what we say sometimes and I'm a huge supporter of Labour and very active in ICA, you got my forgiveness this time but let's just be careful from here on out about burning bridges, some can't be built back
I will be truthful, I dont believe in the ICA, I wont hide that, But my actions were out of line. And that Im sorry
We all fall down. It's how many times you get up that counts. (The answer is one more time than you fall down)
To be Irish, you must be stubborn, independent, and willing to fight for what you believe in. Preferably fighting someone outside the country, but fighting is a given here. 😉 Learn from your mistakes, apologize when appropriate, and never ever let it keep you down. You'll be alright. 🙂
Slainte!
oh, it's ok que make a mistake once,
now twice thou ...
So you're "forgiven", now welcome back 🙂
If I can still guide you somehow, I'd suggest you don't take people's word for things no more.
Do as I do and check things by yourself. See thru your own eyes.
Gotta explore, gotta see how things really are by working within it !
I'm an ICA soldier atm ...
Peace !
Karl u don't need forgivnes from me 🙂
after all ,all people have shining moments in life and one 'less' shining
u have had both of these moments ,and I believe u r a good person 🙂
The ISD has too much "History" that comes with the name I would say let it die or rebrand/name the party, we all make mistakes and be a bit more patient things don't come to you straight away whether that be knowledge or political might and don't be hasty in making assumptions about people, parties and organisations.
My friend, there is no need to apologize to me. We will always be friends.
Karl, I got to give it to you do not do things in half measures. You had me at I Apologize. You have a passion for every thing you do, including apologizing. If being PP did not work out, find something else to turn your energies too. Ireland needs people like you. Your friend Moo.
Karl, I appreciate that you took the time to read my article and you have now recognised that your last article was inconsiderate and foolish. The fact that you have apologised now for it shows a great deal of integrity, I always say it takes the bigger man to apologise. If you hadn't apologised then your eIrish political career likely would have ended here.
You've made a good decision, I still admire you for the passion you put into the ISD at the beginning and would happily see you working in the eIrish government in the future. I have been told that I was a little harsh in my response to you, but personally: I feel it were very necessary to let you know how you had made myself and my friends in Labour and the ICA feel.
The best thing that you can do now is learn. You need to spend your efforts in the background learning about game mechanics and about the eIrish political system. Without doing this first you can never succeed. I wish you all the best in whatever path you choose - except in your attempts to destroy the ICA- and I know that you will make a difference with a little more knowledge, no matter where you go.

Your Friend,
Mr Ginge
don't worry about it
I appreciate the forgiveness
Nice.
In hindsight I think the best thing for you and any new player would have been to join a more active political party. Info isn't the easiest thing to come by in Ireland and mentors are what people need to really progress in the game.
I still don't think that any player can be "too young" to be a PP, but people in your position do need to be helped along the way. It's clear from the lack of progress made this month that that guidance was not afforded to you.
I can understand where the last article came from, it was p much what someone "from the outside" could have interpreted from the constant trolling in articles and general potshots by the certain people. The seemless lack of progress and the constant bickering.
One thing which nobody can deny whether grammatically correct or not, you always speak from the heart and with a real enthusiasm for doing good. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even though I became very busy here at the end of the month. I still would have done my best to answer any questions.
Active players are Ireland's most valuable resource and I hope you stick around.
Maybe you could even try out other parties, some of top 4 particularly the most active ones are brilliant learning environments.
ty for the mention btw 😃
