My Fellow Americans and Pfeiffer
Greetings and Salutations,
As evidenced by the Official Results below, Oblige has indeed been elected to a fourth term as President of the United States:
I have looked over and over again, but I still cannot see Pfeiffer anywhere on the ballot, despite his claims on Sunday that he was going to win the election. After further investigation, it seems that when Pfeiffer said he was gonna win, he meant the candidate he backed; in this case; Israel Stevens. Unfortunately, Pfeiffer's involvement only served to discredit an otherwise worthy candidate. Basically, Pfeiffer's attitude is "if the candidate wins, he (Pfeiffer) wins; but if the candidate loses, the candidate loses alone". Good person to have on a campaign.
I'm sure most had heard the rumor that I am leaving the New World for a new world. It's true. Even as you read this, I am preparing ideas for what will be my first and last term as Vice President and my last month here in eRepublik, barring something completely bizarre that changes my mind.
Truth is, as I said in a recent article with Jared Moffett,
There are major problems in the community. Polarization and cut-throatness at every turn.
Since I was picked by Oblige to be his running mate, I have experienced hate that would made my decision to leave this community an easy one. It was so bad, others pointed it out to me and I retreated from IRC and communicated with Oblige and youngHOOD primarily through text messaging.
People say I should toughen up or get thicker skin. I say Why? If I wanted to experience hate and stupidity, I would still be married to my ex-wife. Or, as I stated in an alternative reality:
Should I continue to live a life in a world that doesn't seem to want me or in a world that seems welcoming and exciting?
So I have already stepped down as Party President of the U.S. Marijuana Party. Currently, Chickensguys is the Interim Party President. I will be stepping down as Unit Commander of THC in a few days. In the end, the only things I will focus on are my job as Vice President and continuing to host the eNPR on Tuesdays and Thursdays. After this month is concluded, I'm outta here, man.
I've got a few pet projects I will be working on this term. After all, I've got to give you all some reason to miss me. Make sure you are subscribed to this paper to see more in the near future.

Hey Jude

Can I have your stuff?
Haters gonna Hate, man.
: )
...and yet another excellent citizen is leaving, and all of it due to Henry 'Pfeiffer' Arundel the most self loathing citizen I have ever seen. Pfeiffer has no real life since he spends all his time and 'plastic money' on a game and although he welds considerable power 'in-game', when he hits the 'log out' he is just another worthless pile of crap.
Pig In Zen,
The reason that the United States IRC channel is dead is because of 'Pfeiffer' and his sock puppet horde trolling, calling citizens names, thinking they are the only citizens who know how to play this game and their all around hate of anyone who won't bow to their wishes.
Admin,
In case you were wondering why your game is slowly dying -though I have invited 50 different people from various forums not a single one of them have joined- it the rampant cheating and citizens like Henry 'Pfeiffer' Arundel spreading his hate.
"If I wanted to experience hate and stupidity, I would still be married to my ex-wife."
Hate and stupidity exist in RL and in-game. And if you still don't quit RL now, why do you have to quit the game?
Agreed with everything Dru said.
Corrupt garbage.
"f I wanted to experience hate and stupidity, I would still be married to my ex-wife."
lol
We'll miss you, man. Nobody makes the game more fun than JC.
(Well, pizza comes close, but in a different way!)
Quitting is the only guarantee for failure.
ahh Jude!
why you leave!
Under the skies so blue.
This is a sad day :/
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know its a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder ...

If good players like you leave, then Pfeiffer wins. Does he not?
♥ Miss you ♥
Awww Jude
Hey Jude, don't take it bad
Just take a bad song, and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
The Jude Obliges
Wait, I mean...
For well you know that it's a fool, who plays it cool,
By making his world a little colder
We're losing a great
Combo breaking the Beatles? Disappointed.

Well, there goes the single greatest string of comments known to mankind.
