Phoenix Protocol Status Update; November 2012:

I’m finally back after taking an extended leave of absence and plan on getting things back into action again. It’s taken a few days, but I’ve already begun on the first steps of this.

1: Chakat Firestorm has gotten the promotion to Ambassador that she’s been requesting for a while now.

2: I’m now open to discussing topics involving FedCom and Veronica directly now, as I no longer see a conflict of interests which would have undermined accurate thought analysis before.

3: I’ve made a few investments and finally lifted the freeze on my assets that hindered spending before, this means more money flowing through Phoenix and hopefully more progress.

4: Beginning immediately, I’m calling for a full top-down review of our government and economy, to see exactly where we stand and find exactly what still needs to be established. This will also serve to get me updated with exactly what happened while I was gone.

5: On a lesser note, the website is going to be getting a few minor tweaks to the skin. It’s nothing major, just a few buttons changed and more seasonal banners added, geared towards recognizing international holidays instead of only those honored in the United States. An example of this is that I’m going to be making one for Cinco De Mayo (fifth of may) to honor the Mexican war of independence. On the note of that, any Phoenix Protocol members who wish to have holidays honored are welcome to ask. I will not discriminate, religious holidays will be welcome.

6: All political activities are going to be open to public forum, both metaphorically and literally. I’ll be posting councilor points of discussion into appropriate threads on the forum which will remain open for as long as the issues are in debate, to allow all members equal say in the proceedings.

I’ve been gone far longer than I should have and this return was hampered by a few personal issues that slowed me down initially, but I’m hoping that through your continued support we’ll all be able to move forward together. On the note of that, I’ll be talking directly with Chakat Firestorm to learn exactly how relations between the two factions stand. It’s no secret that there’s many people on the fence and many who wish for the two sides to simply get along. I can’t agree more, so I’m going to go ahead with work towards finding middle grounds and finding compromises to solve the issues.

If anyone from either side chooses to use this as grounds for claiming weakness or surrender, you’re welcome to it. Feel free to say what you will about me or my policies, as I’m going to do the right thing no matter how much flak I have to take for it, because this is bigger than the rivalry between myself and Tigerstripe. This is bigger than choosing open or closed borders, and this is bigger than who gets funds from who where and why.

This is about all of us, on both sides, in all places, and how we’re going to work together to shed the petty squabbling that makes us no better than the people we claim as our enemies. This is about rising up, striving for something more. This is about working together, as friends, as kindred spirits. This is about unison and harmony, about coexisting despite personal views, about embracing differences instead of shunning them, about hugging our enemies in love instead of to find a place to stick a knife, and about finding solutions that will help all of us instead of some of us.

As of now, I’m forgiving all past misdeeds by members of both factions towards members of both factions. I’ll hold nothing said in the past of all against the futures of any. This includes Tigerstripe hirself. Tiger, odds are you’ll see this, so this part is for you and all councilors of FedCom. I’m pressing the big reset button. You wronged me and I wronged you. We both did things out of hate, rage, spite, and anger. We both made decisions out of emotion instead of logic, but we both also have a job to do. The people of our factions cannot be allowed to continue suffering under the wake of disharmonious leadership. If this takes me taking the first step, then so be it. I’m sorry for how I’ve caused the populace to suffer, I’m sorry for how my own emotions stained my political choices, and I’m sorry for the damage caused by them. While I still stand by my views, I abhor the actions by which I displayed them in the past.

I know we’re better than this. I know there’s something that sets us apart from the masses. I know that somewhere among the dozens of us pointing fingers and holding grudges, among the people of Malatora and Phoenix, that there is that spark that brings the fires of change. Nearly two thousand years ago, the invention of bronze changed the world, then came steel, then books, then steam, electricity, computers and space travel. Each new age of man is heralded by a spark of tomorrow, of that golden strand of dawn breaking over the darkness the previous age ended with. Let’s let our next age begin with the invention, nay, revelation of true brotherhood. Let us be family again, family that loves one another, who’s there for one another, no matter how bad our mistakes become.

My name is Tanya Marie Sapien, Councilor of Phoenix Protocol, and I’m not only back, but I’m here to bring us forward into a new age of peace and understanding. :foxhyper:
