Dear Ireland,
Before I begin, I would like to say that this article is going to be very long, and Brian Boru has published a much shorter article about his opinion on the situation, which you can find here.
I believe I make many good points in this article that Brian might have missed, but if you don't want to read a huge wall of text, you should just skip to the "March 2013" header, since that is where I'll be discussing what is going on right now.
Today I am going to discuss the current situation we have in Ireland; the threat from Spain, the war with the UK, the current government, and how they're all very related.
To be able to give you a good insight into the situation I will first have to go back in history a little bit, and briefly explain the situation in the past.
Many months ago, when the Irish Citizen Army was at its peak, members and associates of the military unit won the presidential elections here in Ireland many times in a row, an era during which Ireland was at her strongest in the entire history of eRepublik.
Among many others, me, and our current president MUFC, were heavily involved in these governments.
While I usually took care of a broad variety of things, such as internal communication, communication with congress, governmental organization and so forth, the aspect I was by far most involved with was Foreign Affairs. I had developed many strong contacts around the world, both before and during my time in government, putting Ireland in a very strong diplomatic position.
MUFC, on the other hand, was mainly involved with organizing our armed forces. He handled recruitment of new soldiers, supplied the soldiers, built up a command structure, and so forth.
Many times did MUFC want to get more involved in foreign affairs, but we quickly learnt that we shouldn't leave him anywhere near foreign diplomats, or foreign people of note, because it often ended very badly.
It was often that he said inappropriate things, used vulgar language, insulted them and so forth.
One example of this would be during my presidency, March 2012, where the EDEN HQ decided to remove him from their communication channels on IRC due to his poor behaviour.
On top of this, it became clear to us that he could never treat Serbia with respect, even when they did so to us, due to real life issues and that he would always argue in favour of strengthening relations with Croatia, even if they had treated us poorly.
At this time we all could agree to the obvious, that MUFC should keep away from foreign affairs and allow me to take care of it instead, and that I should let him take care of the running of our armed forces, which worked to our benefit.
After a while our popularity declined, and as such our involvement in government decreased, where MUFC held the occasional role as Minister of Defence. (He might have held other positions, but not the foreign affairs position or president, which are the only two positions that are relevant to the story)
During this period of time, me, MUFC and the others were still on very good terms, we kept friendly relations, we helped each other when needed, and so on. However, we grew more and more tired of him because of his attitude that he had developed. The attitude that he was superior to everybody else, that he was always right, (even though he almost always was proven wrong) that his opinion matters more than that of others, that he has the authority to tell us what to and what not to do.
This lead to us leaving the party he and his friends were running at the time known as Saoirse, which is the modern Eire Aonair.
We created our own party, ran our own politics, and so on. In spite of this, however, we were on friendly terms.
December approached, and MUFC (Who had at this point changed name to The Psych0) decided he wanted to candidate for the office of the president, once more. While most of us in the party supported him, some didn't want to take any side, so we decided not to support any candidate (Marcus Suridius was on the ballot since you can't remove a candidate after one has been selected) and we allowed our members to vote as they pleased.
The month of December started with a victory for MUFC in the presidential elections, not perhaps so surprising seeing as there was no other major candidate opposing him.
MUFC's campaign consisted to a very large amount of analysing the alliances around the world, presenting them in an unbiased way to the public and finding a suitable alliance for Ireland to join, and on the policy of promoting national unity. (And also creating an investment bank or something and renting out our orgs, lol)
So basically exactly the same policies he campaigned on this month.
Prior to his victory he had many times been contacting me asking me to take up the position as his Minister of Foreign Affairs, with Nataliia from Galicia serving as my deputy.
His first few offers I declined, saying that I am not motivated enough to do the job, and that I don't have any interest in doing it.
After a while he started claiming that I wouldn't have to do a whole lot, Nataliia would take care of pretty much everything, I just needed to attend meetings, sign any potential pacts and / or agreements, take care of foreign diplomats and so on.
After a while, I accepted, and my job would soon begin.
Having read his campaign and having talked to him quite a bit the days before, I thought that much good could come from the government that month, and he had stated that he intended on "being president for several months to come".
It seemed reasonable, his approach to the alliance situation, where we would in an unbiased way assess the situation in the world and present it to the country, and so on.
It wasn't long however, before I realized that he was neglecting pretty much every choice we could make except for one. Asgard.
I begun telling him, just between the two of us, that I didn't like what he was doing, that we needed to be unbiased and present it in a fair way, so that the people could decide themselves. He started telling me things such as "Trust me on this bro", "Asgard is the best choice", "You will see" and so on, however, I was having none of it.
He began talking up Asgard extremely much, in articles from the government, which is supposed to be a fair, unbiased instance of power.
He could write an entire article about how good Asgard is for us (Although there was almost no substance in it) and not even write a proper paragraph about CoT, and he didn't even mention any other possibilities, despite the fact that we had been invited to join ACT, by the HQ in TWO.
I kept trying to convince him to present it in a fair way, to be unbiased, but he refused, and kept saying things such as "Trust me, Asgard is best choice" and so on, completely rejecting the right the people of Ireland have towards making their own decisions.
It's funny, because I seem to recall him making a big fuzz when Spain rejected our right to make our own decisions just three days ago.
When I realized that I wasn't going to be able to change his mind by nagging on him in private, I started changing tactics. I figured that if I do it in public then maybe he'll come to his senses and start doing what is right to save him from humiliation.
Whilst this had a strong effect, it didn't change much. Marcus Suridius was pointing out many of the errors of his ways in a congressional PM, saying how he didn't even mention other alliances in his articles and so on.
At first, MUFC replied saying "Yes, you're right, I'll change it"
The result was that MUFC edited his latest article, adding one sentence saying "We can join CoT any time we want" or something along those lines, and absolutely nothing more.
It didn't take long before it got to a point where I was so fed up with it that I decided to resign from my position of Minister of Foreign Affairs, stating that I don't agree with his methods and that I refuse to portray the situation to be something it really isn't.
As a result, we started criticizing him more and more, trying to get him to suck up the criticism and learn from it, however, instead of doing that he decided to act like a youngster by getting extremely defensive, throwing insults around him.
The last week of his presidency he publicly stated that he could not continue his job as president because of college or something along those lines, after which we heard pretty much nothing from him.
After the scandal at the end of his term, MUFC moved to eCroatia, saying that "he had lost all hope in Ireland", that he thought "Ireland was better, but that it apparently isn't" amongst other things.
It didn't take long before his friends still here in Ireland, Uljanov being one of the most prominent of them, started targeting me, Marcus and so on for exposing MUFC and what he did wrong.
We were accused of having "trolled out the best citizen in the country for no reason other than boredom", we were constantly attacked due to it, being labelled as "dishonest thieves, liars and scammers" with absolutely no proof for the accusations.
Uljanov stated many times that he "would not rest until we were punished" for example, constantly attacking us, spreading propaganda and lies about us, just because we spoke the truth.
On the fifteenth of the month, the date of the party presidential elections, a citizen called Mr. Jack X appeared in our party, running for party president.
During the day everything seemed fine within the party, Jack was losing and our party seemed safe, however, later on in the evening MUFC logs onto IRC, asks us if we're mad, and shortly after Jack gets bumped up with some 10-15 votes in a matter of minutes.
Having in mind that we monitored the elections we could see who joined the party and left during that time period, and a majority of the accounts that voted had been created within roughly a week of the election.
Shortly after this incident, a new citizen called Shield72 starts getting active. It doesn't take long before he reveals himself to be MUFC, saying that he got bored of his old account and decided to create a new one - his current one.
Note: This is his current account, he changed name to MUFC992.
February the 15:th, one month later, the same thing happens again - however, this time it is Viktor Kurgan who receives a large amount of votes from MUFC and his friends, and suspicious accounts.
Another PTO supported by MUFC and his friends.
What happened to the national unity you were preaching, MUFC?
Apparently that only applies as long as it works in your benefit.
MUFC has won the presidential seat once more.
Much like the last time he became president, he had campaigned on the policies of finding Ireland an alliance through unbiased analysis' of the factions around the world.
He claimed he would hold a referendum on our future without interfering with the outcome, and that the Irish people would be the ones making the decision.
He also said that one of the major issues his government would be working on is strengthening national unity, through finding common ground and reaching agreements between opposing factions within Ireland.
Up until this point in time mine and MUFC's personal relations had begun to improve, we were talking again on a friendly, personal level, rather often, and I for one did not hold a grudge for what had happened in the end of his last term, I was willing to look past that, and give him another chance.
I expected for him to do his job properly this time, that he had learnt from his mistakes.
In his very first presidential update, however, he goes on to take a hostile stance against Spain, which you can see in this printscreen:
Click here for a larger image.
He states that we will make sure Spain has a lot more to worry about, telling us that we will either directly or indirectly fight against them, already hinting a threat that we'll invade.
Shortly afterwards, he announces that Ireland will be holding a training war with the United Kingdom. In case you have missed it, Spain is one of the UK's closest allies in the game.
Ireland has roughly 600 citizens in this game, the UK has roughly 2500.
At the start of the TW, Ireland had some 2-3 MPPs, whilst the UK had some 10-15 MPPs.
It doesn't take a genius to realize that even if it's just a training war, it'll be extremely difficult for Ireland to win direct battles against the UK, something he has however insisted that we should be able to do, since he had laid out a plan for the training war, and published it, which you can see here.
As anyone who understands eRepublik strategy would've expected, Ireland of course lost the first assault on Northern Ireland, and the entire plan of the training war was changed to the UK winning in direct battles and Ireland continuing to RW the regions back to our control.
So once again, we have seen a mistake made by MUFC, although perhaps not a big one, it should have been obvious to him that it would happen.

As all of this is happening, I am starting to see the actions taken during his last presidency in December being repeated.
Siding with one side of the spectrum before the people get to vote, taking a stance against countries, and for others, even though all options are available to us, thus ultimately altering the outcome of the referendum and so forth.
After having told us, and the world, that we will be fighting for Canada against Spain (Moving us pro-EDEN and anti-CoTWO after just a few dozen hours!) he begins signing MPPs without any articles or polls consulting the public.
In an article he published regarding the training war with the UK, he writes the following:
Click here for a larger image.
In this print, two interesting things happens:
First off all, he tells us that we have to align towards CUA, his favourite choice for an alliance without giving us a single reason why.
He also states that we're signing a MPP with Russia.
Russia was at the time facing the start of an invasion by Poland.
Russia had for a long time been unsure on what stance to take in the world, however, large elements within the country was largely pro-CoT.
With the attack from Poland, a member of TWO, and the HQ of CoT not being able to choose one country over another in the issue, it is obvious that Russia is going to start moving away from being a pro-CoTWO nation, and towards being a pro-EDEN nation. So once again, he has pushed us away from one side of the spectrum, in order to push us towards his preferred choice.
Not only that, but he also forces the country to take up a hostile stance against one of TWO's largest members, Poland. Just like he did with Spain.
Much like he said in the article, he proceeds to sign a MPP with Argentina, a country much dissatisfaction was directed towards by people of Ireland for a long time last year, and moves onto signing one with Uruguay.
Does he consult the people, or even the congress?
No, instead, this is what we get:

In the above screenshot you can see me refusing to blindly follow the "orders" from Foreign Minister Columbia.
We are told to vote yes on it, not taking into consideration what we may think or feel about it.
A very unbiased approach to choosing an alliance, isn't it?
Angered by how disrespectful and neglecting the government has proven to be towards the rights of the people of Ireland and to this referendum, going so far that they don't even uphold their own promises, I went on the IRC in search for Columbia or MUFC, to have a talk with them.
MUFC was however not online, but Columbia was, so I decided to have a word with her about it.
I open up by telling her to give MUFC the memo to be unbiased and fair, in a rather rude way, after which she gets defensive about the whole situation and explains how she and MUFC have decided that "CUA is the best choice for Ireland", which is why it's justified for them to misrepresent all other alliances and therefore mislead the people of Ireland.

You can find the logs in a document by accessing this link.
So by now they have made it perfectly clear that they don't care for our opinion, they have their mind set to us joining CUA and they have no intention of giving us a full story, analysing all alliances for us and so on.
Is that enough? No.
In an article he published he starts a paragraph by writing...
"I’ll now write a paragraph as citizen on Ireland, not as Irish President. This is my own opinion about alliances and it’s not final decision of this Government or eIreland as country."
It is obvious by now that he is going to be biased and argue for one specific alliance, whilst alienating the other alternatives we have.
When you are the president of a country facing a decision such as this, you do not include your personal opinion. You're allowed to have it, but you do not boast about it, and you most certainly do not write it in an article, especially not one that is supposed to be a presidential update, because it's going to have a very strong effect on the outcome of our referendum, therefore making the whole idea of the referendum flawed and presenting the situation in the world in a highly biased way.
Of course, he already knows that. That's the point, why else would he write it? He wants to convince more people that his opinion is the right one, instead of just taking his time to analyse all alliances and letting the citizens choose.
He proceeds to writing the following:
"Thing I’m happiest about is CUA. Many of you probably didn’t heard of it. It’s brotherhood between Colombia, Uruguay and Argentina. Since we had meetings with almost all alliances we had one with CUA representatives aswell. I was very surprised with CUA representatives on that meeting and in the same time very happy and proud."
Not perhaps so surprising. He is once again showing that he cannot be unbiased, he has no intention of being unbiased, but most of all, he has no intention of letting the citizens of Ireland choose through their own analysis.
Clearly speaking up CUA, and not even mentioning any other alliances.
Really unbiased and fair, don't you think?
In the article I've just gone through, MUFC refers to an article published by the Irish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, about alliances.
You can find the article here.
In this article, our very own foreign affairs ministry mentions three possible alternatives for us:
CoT, Asgard and CUA.
Our foreign affairs ministry has basically decided that we should not be allowed to choose whatever we want, but just give us their top three and let us decide out of them.
In December 2012, MUFC's former presidency, we were invited to join ACT.
Being a member of ACT is in essence being a trial member of TWO. Trial membership is something we'd have to go through in Asgard and CoT too, and perhaps CUA. (CUA is not an official alliance, it could be founded both with us as founder members, and without us. If the latter, we would have to start off as trial members)
What about EDEN?
Our FA Ministry apparently doesn't want to give us the option to rejoin EDEN because they feel that there's nothing in it. Do they have the right to make executive decisions alienating our rights like this?
No, they don't.
In the article the foreign ministry proceeds to post comments made by government members of CUA / Pro-CUA countries around the world, glorifying CUA and / or the pro-EDEN side of the world alliance spectrum.
It doesn't end there though, a British citizen comments on the article asking why ACT isn't included, and me agreeing. MUFC then proceeds to say that "ACT is a puppet alliance" and that "He never imagined Ireland to be a second level ally".
Just after this, he proceeds to posting a comment on the article, once more glorifying CUA.
Click here for a larger image.
So far in this article I believe I have made it extremely obvious that MUFC does not care for fairness, he does not care about our opinion or our rights, he won't think twice before spreading lies and being biased to get what he wants.
But wait, there is more!
Three days ago, Spanish member of government and the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of TWO, Mininuns, approached me asking me to inform MUFC that if Ireland decides to officially become a member of CUA, our future would not look bright.
So basically, they were willing to overlook all all the acts of hostility MUFC has shown towards TWO this month and so on. But when they heard that we might officially become enemies, they decided to warn us, saying that they can no longer overlook our hostility any more if we do.
MUFC replies to this by saying "If Spain does not release two Canadian regions by the 25:th, Ireland will invade Spain".
After this, I arranged a meeting between MUFC and Mininuns, where they discuss the matter. Any possible misunderstandings would obviously have been made clear during this meeting.
The meeting doesn't really lead anywhere.
Ireland and the UK then decides to close down their training war, which the Irish congress doesn't approve of, and MUFC posts in the congressional thread saying the following:
"Seriously vote Yes on that law.
Those who aren't are really putting our country under risk. Idi*ts."
I replied to his comment saying that if he hadn't been threatening Spain we wouldn't be in that situation in the first place, after which he gets defensive and immature, and starts insulting me.
You can see the full conversation in the congressional PM by clicking here.
I would suggest you read through the logs to get a better glimpse at how hypocritical, immature and defenceless he is against his actions.
He continuously labels me as a liar, claims I just want to provoke a war, brushes me off as irrelevant, and so on, just because he couldn't take some criticism.
On a side note, here's a few insults he spewed out to me on IRC where he acts xenophobic towards me due to my real life origin, claims I am on heavy drugs, calls me a two-faced liar for exposing the truth about him and so on.
In the heat of things, Raven Anarcho publishes an article about what he think is going on, and not before long does MUFC try to manipulate the truth on the article.
In an attempt to make people realize that he's lying I turned to debate him on the article, and he claims that "We could just ask Mininuns who's right". It doesn't take very long before Mininuns himself posts on the article claiming my side of the story is the correct one.
You can find the article by clicking here.
MUFC takes it upon himself to publish an article about the issue, he explains how the Spanish warned us, and so on.
He phrases it in an extremely disrespectful way, and at the same time shows disrespect towards the UK:
Click here for a larger image.
He signs the article off by posting a picture highly related to the Basque Conflict that Spain has gone through in real life.
Click here for a larger image.
The Basque Conflict has costed the life for thousands of people in real life Spain, and he clearly uses it entirely for the purpose of provoking Spain in the game, showing once more how mature he really is.
It doesn't end there, but he changes his avatar to that of an ETA volunteer (ETA is an armed Basque nationalist and separatist organization) and posts provoking shouts in eRepublik about it.
With this it is obvious that he only has one goal in min
After having seen the article published by our president, Padraig decides to propose a NE law against Spain.
At first MUFC posts in the congress thread telling congress to vote no, but he shortly changes that into this:
Click here for a larger image.
Once again does he prove to us that he does not care for our opinion at all, that we in his opinion should just be mindless drones following his command. MUFC claimed he wanted national unity, but he's never willing to compromise, always trying to force his opinion on others.
Now, a note to have in mind is that during all of this, me, Betafoxtrot (UK MoFA) and MUFC have had conversations on IRC, during which I've thought that MUFC has been disrespectful towards Beta.
That is obviously something I told MUFC.
At this point, the UK decides that they shall declare war upon Ireland.
If you have at all read through this article, you would not be surprised at all too see that they are doing this, after the repulsing way our government has behaved.
The UK government states that it was the NE law on Spain that was the final trigger, which made them declare war, however, MUFC quickly releases an article claiming that the blame is not his at all, and that me and Padraig are entirely to be blamed for his failures.
As discussion in congress continues, MUFC tries to justify actions he made regarding the Basque conflict, which quite obviously backfires on him.
Click here for a larger image.
As all the lies, all the repulsing actions, as all the extremely poorly thought out decisions and all the misrepresentation is backfiring on MUFC, he keeps telling us that the sole reason for the British declaration of war was the mistakes made in the Irish congress, so that he can feel comfortable blaming others for his mistakes.
I obviously once more retort to pointing out the many errors he has done during his presidency, claiming that he threatened one of the UK's closest allies, that he glorified a real life conflict for the sake of provocation in game, that he has had a disrespectful attitudes towards not only Mininuns (Two SoFA and Spanish dMoFA) but also Betafoxtrot (UK MoFA) and so on.
MUFC being unable to justify any of his actions, goes on IRC asking Betafoxtrot if he had been offended by MUFC. Betafoxtrot replies saying no, and MUFC thinks he can make a very good point against me.
Let's take a look, shall we?
Click here for a larger image.
Okay.. Should we take a look at what Betafoxtrot is actually saying in that print?
Click here for a larger image.
As we can tell by this print, Beta clearly states that MUFC's attitude has been bad, but that he hasn't been offended by it.
MUFC, in his confusion, just proved me right once more.
You can see my reply to his post here:
Click here for a larger image.
Now, one thing I decided to save until last is MUFC threatening to, once more, PTO our party due to us exposing his lies.
Click here for a larger image.
As we can see in this print, he is clearly threatening to PTO our party once more. What for?
For disagreeing with him?
For exposing his lies?
For not blindly following his policies?
It seems so.
Now, I seem to recall something about him supporting.. National unity..
Click here for larger version of the image.
That's right. The Leap of Faith Agreement! An agreement with one simple goal: trying to unify the country more by reducing the risk of PTOs in the country.
Is it surprising that MUFC, once more, shows that he only cares for unity when it benefits him?
Not at all.
You can find the agreement by clicking here.
As if the lies, the hypocrisy and the manipulation that I have proven so far wasn't enough, after I had publish the first version of this article the Supreme Commander of the Circle of Trust (CoT) Chukcha himself messaged me in game, explaining that CoT had never even been approached about information for our referendum.
This clearly proves how MUFC, even from day one, had no intention what so ever on allowing us, the people of Ireland, to have a fair, unbiased referendum.
MUFC was from the very first day he became president (most probably before that too) so strongly intent on forcing us into his preferred alliance of choice, that he didn't even contact one of the major options we as a country had.
You can see a screenshot of it here:
Click here for a larger image.
What conclusion can we draw from all of this?
1. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC doesn't care about the people of Ireland, and therefore ultimately for Ireland, but rather just for himself.
2. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC does not comprehend the very basics of diplomacy, and that he has almost single handedly dragged Ireland into a war with odds strongly against us.
3. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC cannot take the slightest bit of criticism without starting to act ridiculously immature, a trait no leader should have.
4. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC has been manipulating the outcome of what was supposed to be a democratic referendum in which we were going to decide our future together.
5. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC absolutely refuses to stand for his mistakes and instead goes on to blame others for his failures and mistakes.
6. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC has single handedly put us, as a country, in a position where our neighbouring countries whom we used to have friendly relations with, are now hostile towards us, putting us at a constant threat.
The conclusion we can make?
MUFC is nowhere near fit to lead our country and should be impeached as soon as possible so that the country can be lead by a person who shows respect for the people of Ireland, who shows that he comprehends diplomacy, who does not try to manipulate us in everything he does.
What lesson can we learn from this?
The lesson is simple:
Truth is Treason, in the Empire of Lies.
When you have your leaders doing their best trying to alienate you or others, blaming others for mistakes that they had almost nothing to do with, constantly calling you or others liars, you know something is wrong, and the leader is trying to cover something up.
Occasionally the tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants.

Dear Ireland,
Before I begin, I would like to say that this article is going to be very long, and Brian Boru has published a much shorter article about his opinion on the situation, which you can find here.
I believe I make many good points in this article that Brian might have missed, but if you don't want to read a huge wall of text, you should just skip to the "March 2013" header, since that is where I'll be discussing what is going on right now.
Today I am going to discuss the current situation we have in Ireland; the threat from Spain, the war with the UK, the current government, and how they're all very related.
To be able to give you a good insight into the situation I will first have to go back in history a little bit, and briefly explain the situation in the past.
Many months ago, when the Irish Citizen Army was at its peak, members and associates of the military unit won the presidential elections here in Ireland many times in a row, an era during which Ireland was at her strongest in the entire history of eRepublik.
Among many others, me, and our current president MUFC, were heavily involved in these governments.
While I usually took care of a broad variety of things, such as internal communication, communication with congress, governmental organization and so forth, the aspect I was by far most involved with was Foreign Affairs. I had developed many strong contacts around the world, both before and during my time in government, putting Ireland in a very strong diplomatic position.
MUFC, on the other hand, was mainly involved with organizing our armed forces. He handled recruitment of new soldiers, supplied the soldiers, built up a command structure, and so forth.
Many times did MUFC want to get more involved in foreign affairs, but we quickly learnt that we shouldn't leave him anywhere near foreign diplomats, or foreign people of note, because it often ended very badly.
It was often that he said inappropriate things, used vulgar language, insulted them and so forth.
One example of this would be during my presidency, March 2012, where the EDEN HQ decided to remove him from their communication channels on IRC due to his poor behaviour.
On top of this, it became clear to us that he could never treat Serbia with respect, even when they did so to us, due to real life issues and that he would always argue in favour of strengthening relations with Croatia, even if they had treated us poorly.
At this time we all could agree to the obvious, that MUFC should keep away from foreign affairs and allow me to take care of it instead, and that I should let him take care of the running of our armed forces, which worked to our benefit.
After a while our popularity declined, and as such our involvement in government decreased, where MUFC held the occasional role as Minister of Defence. (He might have held other positions, but not the foreign affairs position or president, which are the only two positions that are relevant to the story)
During this period of time, me, MUFC and the others were still on very good terms, we kept friendly relations, we helped each other when needed, and so on. However, we grew more and more tired of him because of his attitude that he had developed. The attitude that he was superior to everybody else, that he was always right, (even though he almost always was proven wrong) that his opinion matters more than that of others, that he has the authority to tell us what to and what not to do.
This lead to us leaving the party he and his friends were running at the time known as Saoirse, which is the modern Eire Aonair.
We created our own party, ran our own politics, and so on. In spite of this, however, we were on friendly terms.
December approached, and MUFC (Who had at this point changed name to The Psych0) decided he wanted to candidate for the office of the president, once more. While most of us in the party supported him, some didn't want to take any side, so we decided not to support any candidate (Marcus Suridius was on the ballot since you can't remove a candidate after one has been selected) and we allowed our members to vote as they pleased.
The month of December started with a victory for MUFC in the presidential elections, not perhaps so surprising seeing as there was no other major candidate opposing him.
MUFC's campaign consisted to a very large amount of analysing the alliances around the world, presenting them in an unbiased way to the public and finding a suitable alliance for Ireland to join, and on the policy of promoting national unity. (And also creating an investment bank or something and renting out our orgs, lol)
So basically exactly the same policies he campaigned on this month.
Prior to his victory he had many times been contacting me asking me to take up the position as his Minister of Foreign Affairs, with Nataliia from Galicia serving as my deputy.
His first few offers I declined, saying that I am not motivated enough to do the job, and that I don't have any interest in doing it.
After a while he started claiming that I wouldn't have to do a whole lot, Nataliia would take care of pretty much everything, I just needed to attend meetings, sign any potential pacts and / or agreements, take care of foreign diplomats and so on.
After a while, I accepted, and my job would soon begin.
Having read his campaign and having talked to him quite a bit the days before, I thought that much good could come from the government that month, and he had stated that he intended on "being president for several months to come".
It seemed reasonable, his approach to the alliance situation, where we would in an unbiased way assess the situation in the world and present it to the country, and so on.
It wasn't long however, before I realized that he was neglecting pretty much every choice we could make except for one. Asgard.
I begun telling him, just between the two of us, that I didn't like what he was doing, that we needed to be unbiased and present it in a fair way, so that the people could decide themselves. He started telling me things such as "Trust me on this bro", "Asgard is the best choice", "You will see" and so on, however, I was having none of it.
He began talking up Asgard extremely much, in articles from the government, which is supposed to be a fair, unbiased instance of power.
He could write an entire article about how good Asgard is for us (Although there was almost no substance in it) and not even write a proper paragraph about CoT, and he didn't even mention any other possibilities, despite the fact that we had been invited to join ACT, by the HQ in TWO.
I kept trying to convince him to present it in a fair way, to be unbiased, but he refused, and kept saying things such as "Trust me, Asgard is best choice" and so on, completely rejecting the right the people of Ireland have towards making their own decisions.
It's funny, because I seem to recall him making a big fuzz when Spain rejected our right to make our own decisions just three days ago.
When I realized that I wasn't going to be able to change his mind by nagging on him in private, I started changing tactics. I figured that if I do it in public then maybe he'll come to his senses and start doing what is right to save him from humiliation.
Whilst this had a strong effect, it didn't change much. Marcus Suridius was pointing out many of the errors of his ways in a congressional PM, saying how he didn't even mention other alliances in his articles and so on.
At first, MUFC replied saying "Yes, you're right, I'll change it"
The result was that MUFC edited his latest article, adding one sentence saying "We can join CoT any time we want" or something along those lines, and absolutely nothing more.
It didn't take long before it got to a point where I was so fed up with it that I decided to resign from my position of Minister of Foreign Affairs, stating that I don't agree with his methods and that I refuse to portray the situation to be something it really isn't.
As a result, we started criticizing him more and more, trying to get him to suck up the criticism and learn from it, however, instead of doing that he decided to act like a youngster by getting extremely defensive, throwing insults around him.
The last week of his presidency he publicly stated that he could not continue his job as president because of college or something along those lines, after which we heard pretty much nothing from him.
After the scandal at the end of his term, MUFC moved to eCroatia, saying that "he had lost all hope in Ireland", that he thought "Ireland was better, but that it apparently isn't" amongst other things.
It didn't take long before his friends still here in Ireland, Uljanov being one of the most prominent of them, started targeting me, Marcus and so on for exposing MUFC and what he did wrong.
We were accused of having "trolled out the best citizen in the country for no reason other than boredom", we were constantly attacked due to it, being labelled as "dishonest thieves, liars and scammers" with absolutely no proof for the accusations.
Uljanov stated many times that he "would not rest until we were punished" for example, constantly attacking us, spreading propaganda and lies about us, just because we spoke the truth.
On the fifteenth of the month, the date of the party presidential elections, a citizen called Mr. Jack X appeared in our party, running for party president.
During the day everything seemed fine within the party, Jack was losing and our party seemed safe, however, later on in the evening MUFC logs onto IRC, asks us if we're mad, and shortly after Jack gets bumped up with some 10-15 votes in a matter of minutes.
Having in mind that we monitored the elections we could see who joined the party and left during that time period, and a majority of the accounts that voted had been created within roughly a week of the election.
Shortly after this incident, a new citizen called Shield72 starts getting active. It doesn't take long before he reveals himself to be MUFC, saying that he got bored of his old account and decided to create a new one - his current one.
Note: This is his current account, he changed name to MUFC992.
February the 15:th, one month later, the same thing happens again - however, this time it is Viktor Kurgan who receives a large amount of votes from MUFC and his friends, and suspicious accounts.
Another PTO supported by MUFC and his friends.
What happened to the national unity you were preaching, MUFC?
Apparently that only applies as long as it works in your benefit.
MUFC has won the presidential seat once more.
Much like the last time he became president, he had campaigned on the policies of finding Ireland an alliance through unbiased analysis' of the factions around the world.
He claimed he would hold a referendum on our future without interfering with the outcome, and that the Irish people would be the ones making the decision.
He also said that one of the major issues his government would be working on is strengthening national unity, through finding common ground and reaching agreements between opposing factions within Ireland.
Up until this point in time mine and MUFC's personal relations had begun to improve, we were talking again on a friendly, personal level, rather often, and I for one did not hold a grudge for what had happened in the end of his last term, I was willing to look past that, and give him another chance.
I expected for him to do his job properly this time, that he had learnt from his mistakes.
In his very first presidential update, however, he goes on to take a hostile stance against Spain, which you can see in this printscreen:
Click here for a larger image.
He states that we will make sure Spain has a lot more to worry about, telling us that we will either directly or indirectly fight against them, already hinting a threat that we'll invade.
Shortly afterwards, he announces that Ireland will be holding a training war with the United Kingdom. In case you have missed it, Spain is one of the UK's closest allies in the game.
Ireland has roughly 600 citizens in this game, the UK has roughly 2500.
At the start of the TW, Ireland had some 2-3 MPPs, whilst the UK had some 10-15 MPPs.
It doesn't take a genius to realize that even if it's just a training war, it'll be extremely difficult for Ireland to win direct battles against the UK, something he has however insisted that we should be able to do, since he had laid out a plan for the training war, and published it, which you can see here.
As anyone who understands eRepublik strategy would've expected, Ireland of course lost the first assault on Northern Ireland, and the entire plan of the training war was changed to the UK winning in direct battles and Ireland continuing to RW the regions back to our control.
So once again, we have seen a mistake made by MUFC, although perhaps not a big one, it should have been obvious to him that it would happen.
Click here for a larger image.
As all of this is happening, I am starting to see the actions taken during his last presidency in December being repeated.
Siding with one side of the spectrum before the people get to vote, taking a stance against countries, and for others, even though all options are available to us, thus ultimately altering the outcome of the referendum and so forth.
After having told us, and the world, that we will be fighting for Canada against Spain (Moving us pro-EDEN and anti-CoTWO after just a few dozen hours!) he begins signing MPPs without any articles or polls consulting the public.
In an article he published regarding the training war with the UK, he writes the following:
Click here for a larger image.
In this print, two interesting things happens:
First off all, he tells us that we have to align towards CUA, his favourite choice for an alliance without giving us a single reason why.
He also states that we're signing a MPP with Russia.
Russia was at the time facing the start of an invasion by Poland.
Russia had for a long time been unsure on what stance to take in the world, however, large elements within the country was largely pro-CoT.
With the attack from Poland, a member of TWO, and the HQ of CoT not being able to choose one country over another in the issue, it is obvious that Russia is going to start moving away from being a pro-CoTWO nation, and towards being a pro-EDEN nation. So once again, he has pushed us away from one side of the spectrum, in order to push us towards his preferred choice.
Not only that, but he also forces the country to take up a hostile stance against one of TWO's largest members, Poland. Just like he did with Spain.
Much like he said in the article, he proceeds to sign a MPP with Argentina, a country much dissatisfaction was directed towards by people of Ireland for a long time last year, and moves onto signing one with Uruguay.
Does he consult the people, or even the congress?
No, instead, this is what we get:
Click here for a larger image.
In the above screenshot you can see me refusing to blindly follow the "orders" from Foreign Minister Columbia.
We are told to vote yes on it, not taking into consideration what we may think or feel about it.
A very unbiased approach to choosing an alliance, isn't it?
Angered by how disrespectful and neglecting the government has proven to be towards the rights of the people of Ireland and to this referendum, going so far that they don't even uphold their own promises, I went on the IRC in search for Columbia or MUFC, to have a talk with them.
MUFC was however not online, but Columbia was, so I decided to have a word with her about it.
I open up by telling her to give MUFC the memo to be unbiased and fair, in a rather rude way, after which she gets defensive about the whole situation and explains how she and MUFC have decided that "CUA is the best choice for Ireland", which is why it's justified for them to misrepresent all other alliances and therefore mislead the people of Ireland.

You can find the logs in a document by accessing this link.
So by now they have made it perfectly clear that they don't care for our opinion, they have their mind set to us joining CUA and they have no intention of giving us a full story, analysing all alliances for us and so on.
Is that enough? No.
In an article he published he starts a paragraph by writing...
"I’ll now write a paragraph as citizen on Ireland, not as Irish President. This is my own opinion about alliances and it’s not final decision of this Government or eIreland as country."
It is obvious by now that he is going to be biased and argue for one specific alliance, whilst alienating the other alternatives we have.
When you are the president of a country facing a decision such as this, you do not include your personal opinion. You're allowed to have it, but you do not boast about it, and you most certainly do not write it in an article, especially not one that is supposed to be a presidential update, because it's going to have a very strong effect on the outcome of our referendum, therefore making the whole idea of the referendum flawed and presenting the situation in the world in a highly biased way.
Of course, he already knows that. That's the point, why else would he write it? He wants to convince more people that his opinion is the right one, instead of just taking his time to analyse all alliances and letting the citizens choose.
He proceeds to writing the following:
"Thing I’m happiest about is CUA. Many of you probably didn’t heard of it. It’s brotherhood between Colombia, Uruguay and Argentina. Since we had meetings with almost all alliances we had one with CUA representatives aswell. I was very surprised with CUA representatives on that meeting and in the same time very happy and proud."
Not perhaps so surprising. He is once again showing that he cannot be unbiased, he has no intention of being unbiased, but most of all, he has no intention of letting the citizens of Ireland choose through their own analysis.
Clearly speaking up CUA, and not even mentioning any other alliances.
Really unbiased and fair, don't you think?
In the article I've just gone through, MUFC refers to an article published by the Irish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, about alliances.
You can find the article here.
In this article, our very own foreign affairs ministry mentions three possible alternatives for us:
CoT, Asgard and CUA.
Our foreign affairs ministry has basically decided that we should not be allowed to choose whatever we want, but just give us their top three and let us decide out of them.
In December 2012, MUFC's former presidency, we were invited to join ACT.
Being a member of ACT is in essence being a trial member of TWO. Trial membership is something we'd have to go through in Asgard and CoT too, and perhaps CUA. (CUA is not an official alliance, it could be founded both with us as founder members, and without us. If the latter, we would have to start off as trial members)
What about EDEN?
Our FA Ministry apparently doesn't want to give us the option to rejoin EDEN because they feel that there's nothing in it. Do they have the right to make executive decisions alienating our rights like this?
No, they don't.
In the article the foreign ministry proceeds to post comments made by government members of CUA / Pro-CUA countries around the world, glorifying CUA and / or the pro-EDEN side of the world alliance spectrum.
It doesn't end there though, a British citizen comments on the article asking why ACT isn't included, and me agreeing. MUFC then proceeds to say that "ACT is a puppet alliance" and that "He never imagined Ireland to be a second level ally".
Just after this, he proceeds to posting a comment on the article, once more glorifying CUA.
Click here for a larger image.
So far in this article I believe I have made it extremely obvious that MUFC does not care for fairness, he does not care about our opinion or our rights, he won't think twice before spreading lies and being biased to get what he wants.
But wait, there is more!
Three days ago, Spanish member of government and the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of TWO, Mininuns, approached me asking me to inform MUFC that if Ireland decides to officially become a member of CUA, our future would not look bright.
So basically, they were willing to overlook all all the acts of hostility MUFC has shown towards TWO this month and so on. But when they heard that we might officially become enemies, they decided to warn us, saying that they can no longer overlook our hostility any more if we do.
MUFC replies to this by saying "If Spain does not release two Canadian regions by the 25:th, Ireland will invade Spain".
After this, I arranged a meeting between MUFC and Mininuns, where they discuss the matter. Any possible misunderstandings would obviously have been made clear during this meeting.
The meeting doesn't really lead anywhere.
Ireland and the UK then decides to close down their training war, which the Irish congress doesn't approve of, and MUFC posts in the congressional thread saying the following:
"Seriously vote Yes on that law.
Those who aren't are really putting our country under risk. Idi*ts."
I replied to his comment saying that if he hadn't been threatening Spain we wouldn't be in that situation in the first place, after which he gets defensive and immature, and starts insulting me.
You can see the full conversation in the congressional PM by clicking here.
I would suggest you read through the logs to get a better glimpse at how hypocritical, immature and defenceless he is against his actions.
He continuously labels me as a liar, claims I just want to provoke a war, brushes me off as irrelevant, and so on, just because he couldn't take some criticism.
On a side note, here's a few insults he spewed out to me on IRC where he acts xenophobic towards me due to my real life origin, claims I am on heavy drugs, calls me a two-faced liar for exposing the truth about him and so on.
In the heat of things, Raven Anarcho publishes an article about what he think is going on, and not before long does MUFC try to manipulate the truth on the article.
In an attempt to make people realize that he's lying I turned to debate him on the article, and he claims that "We could just ask Mininuns who's right". It doesn't take very long before Mininuns himself posts on the article claiming my side of the story is the correct one.
You can find the article by clicking here.
MUFC takes it upon himself to publish an article about the issue, he explains how the Spanish warned us, and so on.
He phrases it in an extremely disrespectful way, and at the same time shows disrespect towards the UK:
Click here for a larger image.
He signs the article off by posting a picture highly related to the Basque Conflict that Spain has gone through in real life.
Click here for a larger image.
The Basque Conflict has costed the life for thousands of people in real life Spain, and he clearly uses it entirely for the purpose of provoking Spain in the game, showing once more how mature he really is.
It doesn't end there, but he changes his avatar to that of an ETA volunteer (ETA is an armed Basque nationalist and separatist organization) and posts provoking shouts in eRepublik about it.
With this it is obvious that he only has one goal in min
😛to provoke Spain, one of the UK's closest allies.
After having seen the article published by our president, Padraig decides to propose a NE law against Spain.
At first MUFC posts in the congress thread telling congress to vote no, but he shortly changes that into this:
Click here for a larger image.
Once again does he prove to us that he does not care for our opinion at all, that we in his opinion should just be mindless drones following his command. MUFC claimed he wanted national unity, but he's never willing to compromise, always trying to force his opinion on others.
Now, a note to have in mind is that during all of this, me, Betafoxtrot (UK MoFA) and MUFC have had conversations on IRC, during which I've thought that MUFC has been disrespectful towards Beta.
That is obviously something I told MUFC.
At this point, the UK decides that they shall declare war upon Ireland.
If you have at all read through this article, you would not be surprised at all too see that they are doing this, after the repulsing way our government has behaved.
The UK government states that it was the NE law on Spain that was the final trigger, which made them declare war, however, MUFC quickly releases an article claiming that the blame is not his at all, and that me and Padraig are entirely to be blamed for his failures.
As discussion in congress continues, MUFC tries to justify actions he made regarding the Basque conflict, which quite obviously backfires on him.
Click here for a larger image.
As all the lies, all the repulsing actions, as all the extremely poorly thought out decisions and all the misrepresentation is backfiring on MUFC, he keeps telling us that the sole reason for the British declaration of war was the mistakes made in the Irish congress, so that he can feel comfortable blaming others for his mistakes.
I obviously once more retort to pointing out the many errors he has done during his presidency, claiming that he threatened one of the UK's closest allies, that he glorified a real life conflict for the sake of provocation in game, that he has had a disrespectful attitudes towards not only Mininuns (Two SoFA and Spanish dMoFA) but also Betafoxtrot (UK MoFA) and so on.
MUFC being unable to justify any of his actions, goes on IRC asking Betafoxtrot if he had been offended by MUFC. Betafoxtrot replies saying no, and MUFC thinks he can make a very good point against me.
Let's take a look, shall we?
Click here for a larger image.
Okay.. Should we take a look at what Betafoxtrot is actually saying in that print?
Click here for a larger image.
As we can tell by this print, Beta clearly states that MUFC's attitude has been bad, but that he hasn't been offended by it.
MUFC, in his confusion, just proved me right once more.
You can see my reply to his post here:
Click here for a larger image.
Now, one thing I decided to save until last is MUFC threatening to, once more, PTO our party due to us exposing his lies.
Click here for a larger image.
As we can see in this print, he is clearly threatening to PTO our party once more. What for?
For disagreeing with him?
For exposing his lies?
For not blindly following his policies?
It seems so.
Now, I seem to recall something about him supporting.. National unity..
Click here for larger version of the image.
That's right. The Leap of Faith Agreement! An agreement with one simple goal: trying to unify the country more by reducing the risk of PTOs in the country.
Is it surprising that MUFC, once more, shows that he only cares for unity when it benefits him?
Not at all.
You can find the agreement by clicking here.
As if the lies, the hypocrisy and the manipulation that I have proven so far wasn't enough, after I had publish the first version of this article the Supreme Commander of the Circle of Trust (CoT) Chukcha himself messaged me in game, explaining that CoT had never even been approached about information for our referendum.
This clearly proves how MUFC, even from day one, had no intention what so ever on allowing us, the people of Ireland, to have a fair, unbiased referendum.
MUFC was from the very first day he became president (most probably before that too) so strongly intent on forcing us into his preferred alliance of choice, that he didn't even contact one of the major options we as a country had.
You can see a screenshot of it here:
Click here for a larger image.
What conclusion can we draw from all of this?
1. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC doesn't care about the people of Ireland, and therefore ultimately for Ireland, but rather just for himself.
2. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC does not comprehend the very basics of diplomacy, and that he has almost single handedly dragged Ireland into a war with odds strongly against us.
3. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC cannot take the slightest bit of criticism without starting to act ridiculously immature, a trait no leader should have.
4. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC has been manipulating the outcome of what was supposed to be a democratic referendum in which we were going to decide our future together.
5. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC absolutely refuses to stand for his mistakes and instead goes on to blame others for his failures and mistakes.
6. We have overwhelming evidence that MUFC has single handedly put us, as a country, in a position where our neighbouring countries whom we used to have friendly relations with, are now hostile towards us, putting us at a constant threat.
The conclusion we can make?
MUFC is nowhere near fit to lead our country and should be impeached as soon as possible so that the country can be lead by a person who shows respect for the people of Ireland, who shows that he comprehends diplomacy, who does not try to manipulate us in everything he does.
What lesson can we learn from this?
The lesson is simple:
Truth is Treason, in the Empire of Lies.
When you have your leaders doing their best trying to alienate you or others, blaming others for mistakes that they had almost nothing to do with, constantly calling you or others liars, you know something is wrong, and the leader is trying to cover something up.
Occasionally the tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants.

Hiya baby ♥

I don't regret any of that 😁
Also you should seriously consider getting urself a life brah ;__;
Good, then it's safe to hope you will never get elected into any office ever again.
And it's good to see you're still proving my points by being immature and coming with even more insults than those I pointed out in the article.
Oh also, brotip: I'm home sick due to a fever, don't have a whole lot else to do. 🙂
We'll see about that on 5th April 🙂
Okay.
lol @ getting a life.... none of you guys have a life or you would not spend this much time concentrating on a browser game... its hilarious
Of all people on this ane Id say Chewies got the modt active life, judging by the pics he has up on fb
You should seriously consider another avenue of game play, coming from someone who has considered you friend in the past.
Friend or no friend however this is something that is unacceptable no matter what reasons for it. Just let Ireland find it's way.
As far as CUA is concerned, that is not an alliance at all and it's unlikely it will become one, as Columbia is EDEN (though it had been virtually under Argentinian control unti recently) and Uruguay was used to provoke the Brazil vs Argentina conflict in the hope that it will create another BB for Argentina.
To be fair CoT failed with the Russian situation, but that will longer lasting effect in the future.
EDEN is the same self-centered mud-pit as it has been for the last almost 2 years and TWO remains an imperial alliance, here small members can only be auxiliary troops.
To be honest right now it is a bad time to choose alliances until one shows a clear stance on the major issues on the map. The time of the bipolar world is ending fast and with it EDEN will be gone, the time of the multipolar world is here and there will be more and more opportunistical game play everywhere because of it.
Still maybe it will bring some competition and make the game more interesting with it.
tl;dr
you spent like 2 years writing that?
Closer to two hours.
And good to see you don't care for the truth.
Proves how much MUFC and his friends actually care for Ireland. 🙂
shooo shooo shooo makez ze Sweden train 3:
sup ilphen? long time no see
[removed]
not much, just fun to see that Irish realize they are retarded. : D
we're retarded when croats lead us 😉
wow
About time somebody wrote an article like this to reveal the truth. srs
Tchaikovsky ♥
ROFL you using the word truth
You know what's even funnier?
You getting involved in our affairs again after your two best friends in the game almost single handedly ran this country to the ground completely, from which the effects can still be seen. 🙂
Looks like MUFC would do better as CP in a more powerful country, Ireland invading Spain hahaha
He wouldn't be a good CP in any country, lol.
I said better
I know you did, not arguing there, just saying that you can't really make a scale between "absolute complete failure" and "extreme failure". ; )
Largest article i seen ever in eRep 🙂
MUFC has made many mistakes, but he still is the best CP Ireland has ever had...
He is nowhere near the best president Ireland's had.
Just because the president Ireland's had for the last half year have a tendency not to do anything at all and MUFC actually does stuff (but it usually ends in a negative way anyway) it does not mean he's a good president, it does not mean he's a better president than most, and it most certainly does not mean he is the best president.
He is just another piss poor president that his country has to put up with.
You can't even compare MUFC's presidencies to those that IBhoy, Padraig, Sweet etc have had. They have all been good presidents, compared to them MUFC is just a stain.
u obviously dont know him too well
I thought you might be interested in knowing that the SC of CoT, Chukcha, just messaged me telling me that MUFC never even contacted CoT, because he was so keen on forcing us to join the alliance he wanted.
Here's a print: http://oi46.tinypic.com/r7k508.jpg

[removed]
Chew, I have talked many times with MUFC.. There are 2 SCs and I am the second one, y'a know? : ))
So you're saying that he actually did talk to CoT, and despite this absolutely refused to reflect upon them, write a statement from them and so on, and just handily picked out plenty of pro-EDEN/pro-CUA countries to do that with and refused to do it with CoT?
You're not exactly helping his case.
Its the exact same attitude he had in January, was shockingly biased towards Asgard and I kept bringing it on on the congress thread.
Also I know for a fact he did ask Chew and is denying it, I know because he did the same loads of times in January asking me for advise then posting it on his articles as if its his own ideas (have screenies if anyone wants them). So I know he has been asking Chew for advise on FA cause Chew is quality at it.
--
I want to put a bet on and say that in a month or a little over MUFC will be trying to convince us of another alliance. Lets not forget on day 1,823 he was posting comments saying Ireland should join CoT
http://imgbin.org/images/12274.png
Then in January it was all about Asgard and now he is choosing yet another path for the country by not doing his job (which he clearly said to the Dail).
I said this to everyone on the Dail thread in January that when these referendums are done the government has to be unbiased and MUFC's wasn't being..not by a long shot. Seanan said you cant expect the updates to be unbiased (or something to that affect) to which I stated along the lines of "then the votes will be swayed the presidents (and biased) way.
Dead right Marcus.
Great article, read it all (as I'm on massive procrastination). It's nice to see between the lines of what I have seen in articles, shout feed and law proposals over this term. Cheers Chewie

Could you explain what these kunts are to me please? Or is it just mis-spelling cunts?
They were a political party, I can't remember the full name but it had kunt in it somewhere. But basically it contained the members of the old ICA in it.
That's a very flawed statements, that's like saying companies advertise because they don't believe in their products.
No, you couldn't be more wrong. It's to broaden the viewer group so that more people can read it.
Bought votes implies that someone finds the article important so that they want it to reach a wide audience as quickly as possible.
Besides, I haven't even bought votes for this article. I don't have the money needed, and I haven't had the money needed for weeks.
It would seem someone with the slightest sense of critical thinking has realized that this article is important to Ireland and have saved me the effort.
Furthermore, I have reported your comment since it's not only insulting but also xenophobic. Your comment has absolutely no substance whatsoever, and slagging me because of my real life ethnicity has no relation to my article or to what is debated in the comments what so ever.
In case you haven't noticed already, probably a majority of active citizens in eIreland have a different real life nationality, including the president himself.
Now implying my nationality has anything to do with dishonesty is just pure ignorant and it's repulsing to see anyone make such a comment, and generalizing us as c*nts doesn't exactly help your case.
I have been in eIreland longer than you have played this game, I have been active in this community more days than you have played this game, I most certainly have a way better understanding of eIreland than you will ever have.
You're a disgrace.
People like you and people like MUFC is the reason why Ireland is in such a poor state right now.
Let me explain something to you. Having reported my post for an infraction big boy and bought votes is all I need to know about you. You are from Sweden and you belong to the faction known as the kunts. Why don't you report that too? In the meantime, you and your band of merry robbers can get lost as you'll never make us join TWO
You have clearly no idea what you are talking about.
Please give me one single example of me debating for joining TWO?
I have never stated that I want Ireland to join TWO, I have never stated that it would be in our interest to join TWO, and grouping me and the others together because we wont take the huge amount of lies, dishonestly and disrespect MUFC has shown so far only goes further to prove how little you know about what you're talking about.
I do not care for what you think of me, I'm not trying to be your friend.
I am trying to show to the people of Ireland that MUFC has acted extremely inappropriately as president so far this month, and nothing else.
I'm not trying to make an argument for any alliance in this article, or any of the many posts I've posted the past few days.
I have very good ties with CUA for example, I even voted for them in the referendum (WHS can confirm this if he can be bothered to) but that's irrelevant.
In no way, shape or form am I trying to get people to change their opinion about alliances, half of what I'm saying in the article is that people SHOULDN'T be telling others what to think when it comes to alliances.
You, Boru and the other waster Juice have al brought out the same paid for articles. All attacking Muck Face but all sympathetic to the UK. It's not just that you hate muck face, something I could understand, but because you want us to join the Brits. Not going to happen turnip head. We look after our own here, apart from a few home-grown traitors
What you're failing to see is that I didn't talk to these people before publishing this article, in fact, I hadn't spoken to Boru for weeks before he linked me his article on IRC today.
Now, Boru is not even related to me and OJ by party, MU or so, he is neutral in terms of internal Irish affairs in the sense that he is not bound to any group, such as party or MU, which is why many parties found themselves comfortable in supporting him for president in January.
Now if OJ and Boru have paid for their articles, fine, that's their issue, I don't care. Val3s states in a comment on a post that he bought votes for my article, and why he chose to do that is up to him, he apparently found it important enough to spend his money on.
As I tried explaining to you in my previous comment, as well in the comment I gave to Death and Taxes, we did not do this as a group effort, me coming out with this article after a debate with MUFC was a mere coincidence.
However, since you bring up the matter about the UK, believing I am in any way partisan to them, I might just go ahead and explain that.
I am not against a war, in fact, I have argued for having a war.
Just a few days ago before this whole thing started I told MUFC to gather up support so we could start a war.
War brings excitement into the game, it's something good for us, it creates activity within our community, especially if it's the UK.
I am in no way trying to argue for the UK on this, and I will most certainly be fighting against them, however, since we do not have any MPPs and rather little allied support at the moment, the odds are against us, and the war can therefore easily turn to our disadvantage.
I'm still curious how this justifies Padraig repeatedly shooting down any chance of stopping the war with the UK? If you don't like MUFC and think you have the votes, put your reasons to the Dail and propose an impeachment. If you lose, work to get someone else elected next election. To take your problems and dislikes of MUFC and risk getting eIreland wiped is wrong. Keep the country strong and secure and keep in country issues in country where they belong.
It does not justify any of Padraig's actions, at all, I am not trying to justify it. I have nothing to do what Padraig did, we hadn't been in contact for probably a week before he proposed that NE.
The Labour Party leadership are writing an article explaining how Padraig's actions can't be justified, and that he has already been removed from our party command and most certainly wont be on our ballot for the upcoming congress elections.
Padraig saw an opportunity to troll and he took it, he would've taken it whether or not I had been telling MUFC to stop running the country down the drain.
Not one bit of this have we done as a group. Me and MUFC got into an argument on the congressional thread by chance the other day,due to his inability to take criticism like a mature person, which has lead to me having to take more drastic action against the way he has been running the country.
I have done nothing to harm Ireland, in any way, and I will never do so.
Hello everyone. I like Chewie a lot. When Chewie is not stoned he can write articles of great truth and clarity. This is not one of those articles. So you have to ask yourself, why are we having such an assault of articles from the same coterie at this time?
