TBR promotion system is none of your businesses, stop trying to persuade people with this kind of stuff.


Poor Bob never gets the recognition he deserves. Tisk, tisk.

Maybe with Mr. Ritter's retirement, and some new blood in the ranks, TBR can get some better direction as an organization. Lord knows they need it.

Bob is very much getting the recognition he deserves. His promotion is one of the few that have ever been posted publicly on the Gameplay forum, for fuck's sake.

The Black Riders have survived as long as they have in part due to a very careful rank system. They reward effort and they don't give hand-outs. The rank of Colonel is incredibly prestigious, it is only one rank below entrance to the General Staff, which is the body that collectively makes all executive decisions in the region.

Congratulations to Bob Moran on his well-deserved promotion, I'm very proud of you and I am positive you will continue to serve honorably.

Good Lord, you are making me want to defend TBR. TBR is a well-oiled war machine, one which the likes of you lacks the knowledge to fully comprehend and appreciate. I'd insult you further, but the fact is that you wouldn't understand it.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Don't worry, I'll still be around, just not that active. And for your knowledge (which seems to lack) TBR was and is on the right direction always.

I'm well aware who Bob Moran is...I see his nations with the numbers afterwards often in the World Assembly updates. I was just agreeing that he seems to be a very active and dedicated player to your cause, and is worthy of highest consideration.

As for my comment about TBR's "direction," I was more hinting at their invasions of non-executive delegate regions. I'm not flamebaiting, I'm actually at a loss.

It is a practice that TBR is continuing and Mr. Ritter did recently make (what I consider) an admission of guilt to a raid of my non-executive delegate region. The raid occurred last week and I've attached the quote:
Feuer Ritter wrote:If you keep ranting like this it will happen again. We don't care about your elections or whatever you are doing there. Get over it and move on.


I was under the impression that TBR is not continuing this practice...but I appear to have been wrong. Seizures of non-executive WA's are considered "hits" ...Mr. Ritter and TBR have abandoned any standards they once had and now consume their time trying to annoy regions rather than trying to control them.

Anything goes for me as long as it has effect, and I see it does. And yes, No raid was authorized on your region by me or any other leaders of TBR, I have no idea what was that, didn't even care to look, that's how small you are for me. And I said "It will happen again" that doesn't mean that were TBR troops involved, it means that next time it will be, okay.

A well deserved promotion. Congratulations Bob, and I hope you don't get the affliction of going inactive upon promotion to a Higher Rank. Update has been mighty quiet. ;)

Friends, it is never too late to quit and become a proper member of society. Do not be afraid to step out of the darkness. Join The Black Riders Rehabilitation Centre today.

While our main duty is to assist former Black Riders who are looking to assimilate back into civil society, away from the dark world of raiding, anyone who is in a similar plight is most definitely welcome to join us, though precedence will be given to members from the Black Riders.

Note: We have no wish to destroy The Black Riders or any affiliated organisations. All we want is to help raiders from the aforementioned organisations who feel that it is time to step out of the darkness and seek help for themselves.

We offer:

1-to-1 Therapy & Counselling
Group Therapy Programme (5-8 Black Riders)
Intensive Emergency Programme
Feeder Regions Assimilation Programme
'Make-a-friend with a former Black Rider' Initiative
Matchmaking Services
Skills & Redevelopment Programme
Critically Acclaimed Insulting Halcones Initiative

The recent outrage to certain TBR raids has been pretty funny, to say the least.
