I doubt you asked either org for help, as right from the get-go your delegacy in Boston was deemed suspicious. Like I said before Apostate, I had to dig into stuff to get records about you to convince defenders you weren't trustworthy. As to the screenshot, why don't you ask yourself what in the world Apostate would gain by saying they were you or what would New Ex Patria gain by faking a screenshot? I trust Siege a million times more than I would ever trust you, and I never once saw any evidence of who you really were until Siege revealed that screenshot.

So...I'd like Boston to be returned to native hands and would do little to accomplish that, armchair defender that I am.
However, from the discussion in this thread I doubt OP is a native and/or has the best intentions for the region, so I'll be giving this one a pass.

Good afternoon.

I am writing as I stand on the T, orange line between Chinatown and downtown crossing. I’ve spent the day walking around the city with my little sister as she looks at the places she may soon be attending school. I sat this morning through two hours of traffic on 93 to get into city from RI, becuase I’m not quite from the city itself, though there’s pictures of me at various Sox games from before I could talk through present day. I’ve attached as proof a brand new picture of me at Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall this morning, though I can also provide pictures ranging from when the snow on the sidewalks was taller than trucks to the height of many summers along the way.

Image


With all this taken into consideration, I think I should be given the right and support of defenders to refound Boston. As an additional bonus, everyone knows exactly who I am and what to expect of me. I have a long history of safe regional stewardship.

Thank you.
