If it's not too late, I'd like to throw my two-cents in. I like to talk, which translates into my typing, so bear with me... Aaron, dude... I love you, bro. I'm laughing, but I'm serious. I've been a fan of yours since before you knew who I was, back when you were Hellian and hung with legends like ICon, the guy whose mother and father I share in real life, haha. Little known fact, but yeah, I learned alot staring at this beautiful game over the shoulder of my big bro. With that said it saddens me to see any misplaced anger my old home and my new home on the account of some instigator tooting the RW horn on our boards, followed by a similar response by a member of our staff. As far as RW goes, it will never quite be the same. While I respect Posh for keeping its legacy alive, there is no mistaking that it is only a shadow of what it once was. You may remember a decent stint I had there some time ago, we were even in the same stable for a bit. I won't lie to you, I put up some of my damn best RP in a long time in that RW 2.0 version, but the fun I used to have in the RW of old wasn't able to be sustained. Ring Wars legend Cherokee brought me back, RW legend Dozer gave me a reason to stay, but when they both eventually packed up and departed, so did my inspiration to continue. That is why I'm here in REW, because I believe if you can't have fun here, you're doing something wrong. That does not change the fact that I will always love RW and the memories it left me with, and respect all the ringers who still inhabit that sparling hotel and casino in Vegas that was once MWEW and is now RW's new home. We only ask that those from there remember us as the fellow talented RW Alumni that we are and respect this place we've chosen to have our fun. For the sake of interesting challenges, I'm always down to unretire Blake Worship in Ring Wars for a match, or have ringers from there come here and have a go at us, you guys never know you might actually like it here... Also, I'm a bit in the middle on the whole "IC while OOC" idea. JMW is right, OOC should mean just what it stands for, out-of-character. But I understand that for some people you are better suited still keeping a somewhat front to shield yourself from personal attacks while also hopefully helping others to not take your own attacks seriously, a mentality that is often important to have and is commonly adapted by veterans in a rough OOC atmosphere like RW. Still, I think there's a time and place for it, and it depends on the conversation. The "I'm Better Than You" attitude will however never grow old, and I personally give credit to Jebus, aka Mr.Betterthanyou for making that famous. Although I could be biased in my praise as that is my big bro, but alas, I digress, haha. And shout out to JMW, haha. I left RW like a day before we would have faced off for that RW World Title in that guantlet! I still remember, haha, would have been much fun, sorry I missed it. Tell FatSam--I mean, MeatBomb (I'm so not slick) if I ever pay RW a visit, I am owed a title match! Haha. In closing, ringers of RW... Aaron, John... come one, come all for a little fun in REW! It will not be a waste of your time, folks. Plus, remember HTML? We still have that here! Lol, what's not to love?!

I was wondering that myself TFT lol just joking, now when are we going to be able to wrestle people from the past. I would love to step in the ring with Aaron Holiday.
If some of the guys come over from Ring Wars then we could actually have some interesting matches. I will be a first one probably to jump out their and take on any challenge lol. I was in Ring-Wars 2.0 at one point in time and I won't knock it. I joined because I just wanted to see if it was the same like it was in the past. But in a way I was extremely disappointed to what I found out, but now I really don't care. The main reason I am still hear in REW its because I think that its pretty much the only place for me. I mean I have been in other feds while my story was still unfolding hear. I have got to say that one of the worst things I got into was G-Fed, but I met a lot of decent people in it.
Would I ask them if they wanted to come and join REW? Yes I would hell I would even do that if I happened to go anywhere else out in the E-Fed world. I loved the old Ring Wars because it got me to bring not only one of my characters out but 2 of them. I didn't really care all that much for Myth, just the story lines and action, and how much fun we had back then. Just like we are still having til this day now, but I have nothing against any of you that would like a good challenge.
You should stop by and check out our little slice of heaven lol, but please do me one big favor and that is just drop the whole BS of you are better anyone. Oh and please if you do happen to join would some please get that annoying fucker Whooper out of hear, that guy is a jobber I have ever seen one.
Alright later this message has been brought to you in-part by "The Surgeon" Freakula have a great day.

Well...........
I don't know who put a post here. And frankly since I am the only high up in Ring Wars. I will tell you what I think of you. I honestly don't. Much like I don't think about Fed X even though people I used to play with, are there also. The only reason, I came here in my other persona, is because one of you came to my boards. I would never know about the spam attack....
However, how is that different then Scotty Raven who to my knowledge never played in a Gfed having an account, and adding everyone to his mailing list that signs up for Ring Wars? And he has been doing it since day 1.
Jayson Ray, you are right. I am no Myth. And people say the game is not the same, I will be honest when it comes to Version 1. I enjoyed RW Version 1, alot more before Myth created the draft and RWTG. It was way more fun in those days. I miss the EWA, making fun of the NRA, the CWA being respectable. But that hasn't been around since 2003, I believe.
And that is not to say I didn't enjoy ringers coming through from RWTG. It just was way better when people could sign up and immediatly be in the SCIW or MWEW or CWA. Hell AceofDiamonds was created as a joke because I figured out the Cslam Aceofspades was in the CWA when it first opened. My favorite fed to play in of all time actually, it started out as me, Adam, Steve, Georgie, KillaClown, and Stuman.
And Hellian, don't fight people here. Ring Wars is stronger if you post there and you put your time there.

Oh and the reason I don't think of you, is I would rather just stay on the Ring Wars boards..........

*sigh* Why, Posh? Why is it that a conversation that has already seemed to reach a relative conclusion has to be marred by whatever superiority trip you seem to be on being the "only high up in Ring Wars"? I don't say this to cause trouble, or to spite you, but because I'd like to point out how little need there was for you to say... well, anything, really... You don't think of REW? *cricket chirp* Um, okay...? We don't think about RW... what's your point? You say what is the difference between someone spamming our boards with advertisements and Scotty Raven composing a mailing list for ringers signed up to RW? I would think that answer would be simple... Scotty is not spamming RW with advertisements. Case and point. If a commish wants to send messages to ringers asking them to check out his site, then so what? Such things are very common in today's E-fedding world, he's done nothing wrong. Not to mention to my knowledge Scotty was in at least two G-Feds for a short while, though I don't see why that is relevant in the least... Yes, the original RW was better. As we've all agreed. Yes, RWTG was a slight drag, though it was helpful in integrating people new to the e-fedding game. CWA was respectable when Gamble became it's mish, so you're mistaken on that point. Otherwise, no one is disagreeing with you. So why instigate? Don't think of us because whatever boards you would rather be on, that's fine. I'd rather be on RW boards if I ran the place myself too, that's just called being self-involved, no one cares where you would rather be. We're here, you're there. Big whoop. And for a commissioner who appears so confident his fed has so much more to offer than ours, why limit your ringers? Frankly it's none of your business where Hellian decides he wants to post, so why try and tell him no? The same way it need not concern you how Scotty reaches out to ringers from your fed, as long as he's not bothering anyone... There are alot of things that could make Ring Wars stronger than what it is, but hindering the free will of your ringers... ain't one of 'em. REW promotes a respectful environment and encourages ties between feds, as it all just leads to what...? More fun. As I said before, I respect you on many levels, the newest reason being for keeping alive the fed that I loved then and still love now, that I grew up in, that I came into my own in, and ultimately became a legend in. However I don't appreciate the belittling of REW. We have no ill-will towards RW and if anything wish RW well, not only because of what it means to so many of us but in hopes we might play together one day and have some semblance of the old days. Let your ringers post here, your fed will not suffer. If you want I'll even return the favor on your boards, but neither side need change where their loyalties lie. Or, hinder your RPers, confine them to your RW and only your RW, for the sake of your RW, so as not to diminish your level of control and to abate your fears of RW suffering due to a little fun being had on that site you don't think about... it's up to you. Just, don't act like REW is some low-talent site with nothing to offer... that would simply make you wrong, a liar, and place you clearly in denial... and a combo like that would be unbecoming of anyone, not just you...

I feel the need to intervene with my opinion. Perhaps my two cents isn't needed or wanted, but here goes.
I don't care if you're in Ring Wars, REW, Blah-blah-Blue, Bah Bah Black Sheep or Mary had a little lamb.
Everyone here needs to grow up & get over this shit. Truth be told, the reason I haven't come back to this place is cause I'm not a fan of proboards - never have been never will. And frankly, in my opinion, this childish war between RW's and REW is completely unnecessary.
Yes Scotty came to our boards declaring action against the people spamming his boards. I failed to realize when the country was no longer free. As long as guests can come in and post on your proboard then it's not RW's problem it's yours.
Maybe speak to the guy in charge of this message board not Posh. And for the love of GoD what's the point in jumping down Posh's throat when he's merely trying to stick up for RW's as Scotty is sticking up for REW.
I know it's hard to ask a bunch of people pretending their wrestlers in a virtual world to grow up, but do your best for everyone's benefit. RW's will continue to be RW's and REW will continue to be REW. Why mess with the natural balance?

Sorry Corrigan, I can't help but spread what your Mom gave me.
I came here late, because I had to figure out where this place was honestly. Google search with Scotty Raven's name was how I found it.
Real quick on the CWA, sorry I just thought it was best under the Maxx Justice days. Did you ever even peak in on how fun those boards were?
And I came here, because your commish felt the need to attack our fed.
Yes, the ringers can play in any game they want. I just don't see how Holiday who obivously is loyal to Ring Wars, will benefit the RW boards and money value by engaging in a match here.
And I am not knocking the talent. I for one have always been a huge fan of Siarlis.

Ok....when is the needless bullshit going to end? I'm getting real sick and tired over every other damn post I see when I get on or refresh my page is in these stupid threads. It's getting real damn old and it's pretty pointless to. Like TFT said, RW will be RW and REW will be REW, plain and simple.
Now here's something else I say.....Don't invade our boards, we don't invade yours *shrugs* Plain and Simple as that *shrugs and nods*

Posh a small correction if I might, the owner of our fed came to RW not the mish, which would be me. And I am of the agreement of letting it go. We have all said how we feel, and anything more would be pointless, since what we say will have no effect on how other people feel. So again I say LET IT BE!

My mistake Cloudstrife....
Not trying to be a smart ass, but what does an owner exactly do here? When I had proboards, it was free.

1. I believe it was Seth, not Scotty who went onto RW boards following this spamming of our boards... unless I'm missing something, though I don't believe so.
2. When there is a board SPECIFICALLY designed for advertisements for other feds, which REW fully supports, and someone instead decides to spam our CBox with three dozen messages about RW, then yes, it is RW's problem, not ours. Not to say Posh can control what his ringers do, but it's more on their hands then ours.
3. There is nothing wrong with a commish sticking up for his ringers. Except in this case, where this is really nothing to stick up for. Posh can either absolve himself of all responsibility, which I wouldn't disagree with because like I said he can't control what his ringers do, or he could apologize, or he could just say nothing. Defensiveness is no real option here, since other than Seth's minute retaliation, no one from REW has done any wrong, though Posh did make minor accusations of his own against Scotty, but that is history...
4. Posh, no one ever said anything about when CWA was the best, and I wouldn't claim to know since I am of a younger e-fedding generation in RW's case. The statement was about when CWA lost its respectability, which it clearly regained when Gamble took the reigns. Not calling his days the best, but acknowledging them as some pretty damn good days...
5. I mentioned before, it matters not where a ringer's loyalties lie. Deciding to show his face in another fed just for fun has nothing to do with RW's "money and value" and all that, it's about interacting with a different crowd. Your fed will not crumble at the loss of Hellian or any other ringer of yours to participate in a match, so it's a bit irrelevant to think a ringer doing a little collaboration with another fed on the side has anything to do with the best interest of their fed, no matter how loyal the ringer is...
6. Your statement in itself is knocking our talent, Posh. We have alot more talented names here than the one guy who you're a #1 fan of... why not point some of them out...?
7. Scotty's title of "Owner" is more for RP purposes than anything else, as he created this particular proboard, and is commonly used in roleplays known as The Boss. Hence the title Owner...
Does anything else need be said...? I should hope not...
Now, I away to bed. WPCC Conference Championship Game, 4:00PM Eastern Time. Gotta rest my sore-ass back...

I don’t normally get mixed up in this stuff, but there is a few things I would like to point out.
for one I didn’t go to any boards posting nothing and for one I wont be held responsible for what some one else have done. yes Seth when to RW's and yes i told him not to and to stay way from there if he's making trouble. if he choices to go there for his own fun then he's free to do so.
Now as a owner I tend to the board keep them updated, (witch I some times don’t do to often sorry guys . and I would like to think I keep things moving smoothly, and when i get the chance I do recruit new people but not by flooding boards I do try to do it as respectable as I can.
I wont hold no grudges to any one that do play in RW's or any other place, a few people here have be to RW's and I still hold them in kind regards and I still see them as friends.
so with out trying to sound disrespectful to you Posh I think Hellian should be aloud to go where he wants and when he wants with out having to worry about what you have to say about it.
Blake as a lot of good points and now to try and end this whole thing, Posh like I said I have told Seth to stay off your boards and I would appreciate it if you would let this one go thank you.
