Ok, it seems things have been sorted out which is great, and at the risk of starting up something which already appears to be solved I do have something to say.
Namely, that what you did by deleting that thread was wrong, especially after being advised by a staff member not to do so.
Regardless of what Kraken thought.
We do not delete IC actions, even if they are a mistake, you are not allowed to do so, you knew this and were told this in this very thread, and yet you just decided to ignore that small fact.
Chadd was banned for doing exactly what you just did, and although the motives were different (Chadd's were primarily malicious), they boil down to the same thing, and that was the simple fact you wanted to do what you wanted to do.
If I were you I would reflect on that.
I understand,
everyone here understands you made a mistake, we
all make mistakes, that is no excuse, and nor is laziness.
Snowkan had to live with the mistakes he made, Dolash his, Joren and his shieldless R&D's , that is the way it is.
You can't just delete things and pretend they don't exist, one has to accept the consequences of ones own actions, even if they were ill-planned, badly thought out, or just plain and simply wrong.
These consequences should have been RP'ed out, now I'm not saying that the Empire and BDE should have gone to war over it, of course not, but I think its fair to say it would have caused a major diplomatic incident!, and at least I would have expected to have seen a very angry BDE ambassador demanding an Imperial apology, (of course the Empire being as arrogant as it is might feel it has nothing to be sorry about, heh).
Lets be honest it would be seen as a massive intelligence failure, and If I were in Imperial command ,whoever was in command of that mission would have been demoted in a heart beat, heh.
My point is, in a way you've missed out on an potentialy interesting (albeit accidental) roleplay here, but thats aside from the main point and that is the simple fact you ignored what the staff had said.
I have to admit Kraken, I thought what you did after was in poor form, OOC actions do not lead to IC actions.
I don't see the logic behind what you tried to do, and from where I was standing it did look very bias to me, and most definately a conflict of interest.
I have to say , if the situation was reversed and this had been the coalition's mistake I wonder what your reaction would have been Demos.
