Greetings Atomini,
Thank you for allowing me to discuss with you here. First, let me state that I believe this whole incident has been blown way out of proportion. And I do mean, way out. Although I cannot say that I am speaking in an official capacity for the Creedy Defense Force, I would like to offer an apology for the poor greeting you have received on our board. Personally, I found you to be quite courageous to step forward and come meet us, and I believe that we should have treated you with courtesy even though you had different views from us. In order to avoid such incidents in the future, The Creedy Defense Force is currently now in the process of establishing a Diplomatic Immunity policy to shelter ambassadors of goodwill from such a rude onslaught of flaming and baiting of the kind you had to face.
Now, to be honest, I do suppose that I have come here to ask you to change your wiki page. If you wish to keep it as is, then so be it. As you say, the community has voted in favour of free speech and I will respect the will of the majority. Nevertheless, I would require a concession from your part. Some valid points and counterpoints have been raised during the voting process on the Iron Cross Brotherhood wiki entry, and there has been some amount of controversy. I would like you to allow me to make an addition to the Iron Cross Brotherhood to describe this controversy in an NPOV manner. If you wish, we could enter into arbitration and hand this over to a moderator who will handle this fairly for us.
I also believe that entering into such an arbitration process is more of something of a last measure, and that other alternative solutions should be attempted first, so I have come to speak to you to see if we could reach some sort of compromise on this matter. You have said yourself, that had things been different, you would gladly have modified the entry. Maybe now we have had time to evaluate things calmly, we can find some sort of mutually acceptable solution. Before you say it's too late, I will tell you that it is never too late to make things right. So let us take a few steps back, and pretend that I had managed to reach Fort Creedy and the Diplomacy threads in time to intervene and speak to you before all of this escalated. This here, you and me speaking, trying to find a solution, is what should have happened. Are you willing to give it a try?
