Great, another month of inactivity in store.

its a sad day for eireland ...

I'm disgusted.

I noticed his account on the IRP forums deleted late on Saturday and informed Grainne soon after. And now this is what I see more than 48 hours later? The IRP seemed like a very interesting party when I first arrived and joined. My only worry was that we may have had a cult of Severin in some respects. Now the question is where to from here? Can you take us forward Lord Rhindon or am I looking for a new party?

Why so long in informing the party and the public about this?

I and Grainne will be taking this forward, as Severin wished.

48 hours, Skylarkin, was a period of pretty intense distress between Grainne and I, as we deliberated over the best courses of action to take from here - we have been working non-stop on coming to an agreed conclusion as to how to go about this. At lot was at stake, it is unwise to rush into things, but similarly unwise to delay things too long, which is why I put some RL arrangements aside to have this announcement written and issued right now.

We were just as disadvantaged as you feel. But we're taking the initiative, we ain't waiting around.

Whoa.

Well. I'm going nowhere. I'm new enough that I haven't known Sev long enough that joining the IRP was about joining the 'Cult of Sev' for me, nothing like it. I'll still be there.

"Great, another month of inactivity in store."

What's your problem? I thought your war of words with the ISRP was over?

Ehm..they are actualy.. I was reffering to their candidate.

@Skylarkin - I'm pretty disgusted too. In a game sense I mean.
I have heard nothing from Severin since last Thursday. Nothing.
As his supposed running-mate and party co-founder I heard rumours and suggestions from many people, and I privately addressed your concerns too, Skylarkin. Truthfully.

There is no cult of Severin.
That's just overactive imaginations and fairy stories written by rodents.

I have been delighted, honoured and proud to work with the new members in IRP all month. I would hope that any one of them will vouch for my activity, my commitment, and my personal time spent with them. I cannot and will not speak for Severin.

This is a very unfortunate situation. There is a mix of RL tough ****, and of game politics, consequences and broken relationships.

I have done nothing wrong.
Rhindon has done nothing wrong.
IRP have done nothing wrong.

One man is down. Just one man.
A man a lot of us trusted and believed in.
A man with a big vision.
But down he is, and gone.

Just one.

I've started a discussion on this in our forums (open forums).

LOL, on my rear laughing here because I'm think how that last comment Grainne is exactly what the ISRP said about Starks! I'd nearly think they were the same person have a bigger laugh if I didn’t know better! It's priceless.

Now to pick up the pieces and move forward....

"Ehm..they are actualy.. I was reffering to their candidate."

Sorry about that if you don't vote for him he won't be inactive, really he should have took his name of the ballot before going anyway.

@ Skylarkin
*curtseys*
Glad to offer you such entertainment Sir.
You should consider getting off your ass though.
Thats the problem round here. Too many spectators sitting on their asses laughing and complaining.
LMAO. Right off.

*Ahhhhh holy mother of e-god.....OK, Severin is gone and we will miss him........BUT

We are still RADICALS,
We are BUSY in all aspects of e-ireland life
We are GROWING the membership
"WE ARE HERE TO STAY"

@Tayto thanks for bringing us back to our senses 😉

''I have done nothing wrong.
Rhindon has done nothing wrong.
IRP have done nothing wrong.''

ROFL indeed Madame! We did not get away from this excuse and I doubt you will either, if you d it is a true and utter disgrace. If I may proffer an opinion on this is it one of sheer hypocrisy. Sheer! I trust the IRP will be subject to the same berating as the ISRP was.

@ Darragh.
It is not an excuse, my dear, but a statement of fact.
If you check carefully on every post I have ever made, I have not accused the ISRP of being jointly and severally responsible for anyones actions.

And if Starks was man enough to be truthful, he could tell you I supported him throughout his issues.

I have openly supported BB, AT* TG and YOU in fact
(when no-one else gave a **** about you actually, and when they didn't even question your resignation, when I told you I would have never accepted it, and I would have begged you to stay. In fact, I did, as YOU know full well. And I went out of my way to demonstrate your talents to others too.)
I supported all of you.
Find me an instance where I did not.

I am well used to slanging matches here.
Public chest-beating and lies.
It is no more than I have come to expect from you and others.
You may snipe and bitch at your leisure. You will have a another full month of glory in which to bask and gloat on your achievements.
And I wish you well in that month. As always.
*mwahs*

NB, look up the dictionary definition of hypocrisy....no wait, I'll do it for you, as you have something unpalatable in your eye...

The practice of professing beliefs, feelings, or virtues that one does not hold or possess; falseness.
deceitfulness, pretense

Hypocrisy is the act of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy typically comes from a desire to mask actual motives or feelings, or from a person's inability to conform to standards they espouse.

So hold up the mirror, Sir D. And check yourself.

As noble as you may have been, your party certainly has not.

You have asked the political side to remain outside of that issue and I was not including it in my comment. If you do indeed wish to include THAT in politics then I will happily do so too.

Farewell Sev......

Severin might be gone, but The IRP will solider on in the face of this. We will grow stronger.

'I see you haven't questioned any of it, for you know it to be full true.'

I havent questioned it because there is little point, you will respond with a lengthy rant as you have just shown. The words :I trust the IRP will be subject to the same berating as the ISRP was.
would tend to suggest I was speaking about the party and not you personally.

As for continuing the challenge, as I said it's pointless so I won't bother. I look forward to seeing policy from the IRP and until the policy is produced I bear no ill will toward them. Once the policy is produced the knives will emerge.

Darragh, I'm pretty disappointed in what seems to be your knee-jerk reaction...

So, this is the last reply I'll make to you today, Darragh, for I have a busy inbox.

"I havent questioned it because there is little point, you will respond with a lengthy rant as you have just shown. "
It is not a rant, it is a full explanation.

For you personally? The relationship between game-Darragh and game-Grainne? You know all of this to be true. Shame on you if you were to deny it. Don't have me post evidence to highlight your shame.

For AT*, Starks, BB and TG, they know it too. I am not expecting a public defence, but I am shocked at your choice to mask the truth. And I have now lost all confidence in you, and in your trustworthiness. But no matter.

"would tend to suggest I was speaking about the party and not you personally. "
As I already mentioned, I am the last standing founding member of IRP and therefore I will take the punches for the party too. I will come back to you tomorrow on any well-founded allegations you may have.

"I look forward to seeing policy from the IRP and until the policy is produced I bear no ill will toward them."

unfortunately, your next comment
"Once the policy is produced the knives will emerge"
would tend to show otherwise.

If you are determined to have a knife-fight, I should maybe warn you that we have a number of skilled swordsmen in IRP whom would be only to happy to engage in your foregone-conclusion.
You have decided to draw knives when you know nothing about us at all.

I hope you will have the full support of your own party. I "tend to suggest" that there are more noble, pragmatic, experienced and sensible people there than you. I sure hope I am right.

That's all for you today, Mr OFaolain.
Rant away and threaten the ether if you choose.
I have bigger fish to fry.
More productive ones.

Unfortunately, I too have other things to do. I'll reply to you fully in good time.

wow i did not expect this. . . when i opened this article a just thought its roumor mongering now that the elections are close. But reading more this has greatly saddened me 🙁

"I have done nothing.
Rhindon has done nothing.
IRP have done nothing."

Fixed that there for ya 😉

Gah! I just realised this means I'll never get to make my "Severin, speak so slightly" joke! I was saving that up for months!

@ Borzoi 😃
@ Fromm, at least you got it out at the funeral, mate.
also 😃

Why doesnt the IRP just come back to its roots and rejoin the IUP ? We all have pretty similar ideals for the country and it would give a solid second (or first) part to the ISRP, who have not had a great first presidency it must be said.

Englebirt you must be young in eIreland coz this isn't ISRPs 1st presidency...... hell the ISRP never held the presidency... We didn't hear a peep outta Starks the whole time he was president.

Interesting development indeed.... luckily this occured prior to the election. Shame Sev should you so little respect Grainne. You trully are loyal at heart to continue to defend someone as cold as that.

Well, I'm disappointed to hear such news. I wouldn't have voted for Sev, but at least we would have had a good election.

I'm a little disappointed the IRP haven't announced this earlier. If Severin did leave Saturday night, then we at Ireland First have wasted the last 2 days debating and voting on who to support, rather than putting together a manifesto to help eIreland. Of course this effects every other party too.

Pity but these things happen. I'll miss Sev but this leaves us in abit of a pickle....

This is indeed sad news. Please don't attack IRP in the same way we have been.
AT*

@Tiberius, I am truly sorry for that.
I genuinely believed he would be back, I had heard nothing to the contrary. I was still busy campaigning like an eejit myself.
It was not my intention to screw this up for the parties that had so kindly offered us their support.
I apologise sincerely for this last minute disaster.
I realise it affects everyone, and I bow to you.

@ Grainne, I truly believe you and your party are sorry, it's hard when somebody walks like that. Especially so close to the election.

I don't mean to try to attack anyone here, I'm only trying to point out that it would have been nice for all "new" candidates to have a little more time to consider what they do in government and provide a clear picture of their intent for the upcoming presidential term.

We can all learn from this.

Good luck to all in the IRP, i know Sev will be a loss, but you have so many great people who are more than able to step into his shoes.

The bottom line is that the IRP now knows what is was like for us ISRP members left out in the cold.

I think its a shame we've both had to go through this now. There is no need for acrimony. The ISRP has risen up and rebuilt, and for the good of the game, I hope the IRP does as well.

Competition is never a bad thing.

Good luck to Lord Rhindon, Grainne and the IRP.

Well with Severin gone that doesn't really stop you guys from being a good party you still got good people in your party.

Thanks for the kind words, they are much appreciated.
We have some fantastic new people you have barely seen or heard from yet. I hope they will catalyse us into being a positive and strong party, and a worthy opponent.
There is a lot of e-soul searching to be done. I know you guys have all experienced it too.
eIreland just never seems to progress, just stumble on and on.

Lord Rhindon & Grainne Ní Mhaille, you are people of class and sublime comportment.

Best of luck to you both.

So, didn't any IRP notice that LR had been selected as candidate like 3-4 days ago???

I and a couple of other citizens did... We thought it might have been a bug... guess not.

I thought that it was a bug.

Gotta hand it to me, I lasted longer than Sev

"I thought that it was a bug."
I WISHED that it was, and thought so too.

"Gotta hand it to me, I lasted longer than Sev"
You did indeed, but you got a lot of help to survive as long as you did, former Mr President, Sir.

Thank you all for your understanding.

We'd like to wish all election candidates good luck, and as I have previously stated, it will be our aim to support whatever administration secures the elections as thoroughly as is possible for us, for the good of eIreland. We will have no initial prejudices. Only a desire to further this Isle of ours. After all, its back to the drawing board.

eRepublik and eIreland has lost one of it's greatest players 🙁

I heard someone mention Severin's name somewhere...

No word on the Whys of this sudden abandon?
