Greeting's,

This report wont be a friendly one unlike my last couple. I am very disappointed by the number of participants in the Independence games. I do realize that some of you are new so you are exempt from this rant. And those of you who participated will be awarded as promised. I just dont like the idea of only a few members carrying the weight of 60. That's right 60 members and only a handful of you even did anything. This is'nt just a rant to Oriens Obscurum so dont feel singled out if you didnt do anything. There is no excuse for this. If Arcona is gonna function as a unit dont you think we need to do something! why are we slowly becoming the worst clan in the DB? well I'll tell you. Lack of activity, leadership, and people who dont have enough backbone to follow through with what they say they are going to do. Yeah I got enough intestinal fortitude to say it. And if the Clan Summit wants to scold me for it so be it. I'm sick of us getting laughed at by the other clans. So dont you think it's time we did something about it? We have had members leave and join other clans. why? I dont know the answer but I do know that we need to fix the problem and fix it fast. There is only so much I can do as a leader, I need cooperation from you, the members. I feel that I have failed you all as a leader and I dont want to be a burden to you. Somehow deep inside I feel like I could do so much more but with the LACK of activity it makes my job that much harder. If you members join and dont get stuff done then your going to be cut from our roster and you can weigh down another clan's roster if you wish. I'm sick of it. I do have some simple questions for you. Why did you join the DB, a club based on having fun and getting to know others if you are just going to sit around and not do anything? Do you want to make this clan a bad ass force to be reckoned with, or would you rather be labelled as a loser? Is there a reason you all cant find anything to do even when I put up a list of competitions and such in my reports? or do you just not read my reports? and the last question I can answer myself. Can one person make a difference? the answer is simple. If one person does all he/she can then they will not only gain my respect but they will be helping this house more then they think.

This report will be short not only because I'm furious but because I dont want to waste my time with members that arent interested in doing anything for the "TEAM"

I've told you all time and time again that if you EVER have any questions, if your un sure of something, even if you want to leave. E-MAIL me and tell me. If you want to leave let me know and I can remove you. It will look alot better then you just sitting there doing absolutely nothing.

And once again I apologize to the ones that find time to do thing's. I have a great deal of respect for you and I really appreciate you being here. A question to the active members. Am I not fair? Have I not awarded activity? I think I have. So if you guy's are asking me why you havent gotten a promotion or a medal then the answer is clear. You havent done anything to deserve one.
