Talk:Knights Templar/History

Few issues...

I think a couple things I said were misquoted, or rewritten... -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 04:10, 9 April 2010 (BST)

What things would that be? I still have all of the original notes, and I'd be glad to go back and correct any mistakes.Roddy Winters 04:47, 9 April 2010 (BST)

That's what I thought.Roddy Winters 21:54, 14 September 2010 (BST)

I'm sorry, I got sidetracked in a few things. I can't remember what I thought happened to be redone. Regardless, could I ask if anyone else finds how this section starts out kind of odd? There's a posts I didn't write on the MOB's forum, supposedly from me. Reading the post, I can honestly say I didn't write it. Reading the later posts on that topic, they say they had a spy (trenchie) in the group. They claim this person was feeding them information. Could it have been Able? No,... probibly not. He only become a rotter... That's in complete contradiction to their MO... -Poodle of Doom^T*C 01:37, 27 September 2011 (BST)

Flowers of Disease War

Hmmmm. Interesting take. Enjoyed this history. Given the time that's past, perhaps my comments here are oh....a year or two late but I think if you are writing a history, it might be good to have the point of view from the other team. In reading this, I think your group never did really understand our motives. Now I think I spoke with someone a while back to fill in some holes in your group history. As you found out, I did have a character with the KT at the time the KT imploded. And not just myself but two others. In fact the three of us formed the FOD but met through the KT. We saw the good. We saw the bad. Which is why eventually we did come calling.

Have a look yonder back to the campaign archive we wrote at the time regarding the KT. Errr....it's been so long since I've posted anything in the wiki I've forgotten what to do here!.... KT Archive.

In particular, "May 06/08

   * The observance has come to an end. A once proud group must be reminded of what it used to be. "

We acknowledged in the intro the KT was once something more than what it had descended into during what you refer to as "the dark days". The FOD didn't just PK indiscriminately. In your case, we wanted to apply some pressure to the KT to see how they would respond...how they would rally. As Beno quoted, "Beno: "Our forum had a public chatroom then, and it is there where first communication with FOD took place. One day they posted a little "we're trying to get you back in shape and help you" speech on that chatroom. I remember I simply answered: "dumbass". That's when they started talking."

Your history claims we didn't post any of the KT kills of FOD members. To be honest, there just weren't that many. Yes, you got a few of us and yes, I remember Finny's resistance. But the ratio was completely one sided. Initially I thought we failed miserably as the KT at the time was just a disorganized mess unable to mount any sort of defense. However, by your own admission, you say this on your history:

"Amidst the tumultuous few weeks of the FoD war, the Knights decided to get more coordinated and formed two teams according to members respective time zones."

So Beno, I ask, were we really so wrong? You DID get into shape after we visited, didn't you? Dumbass, perhaps. :) I've been called worse. You should check the TZH archive sometime. They got really angry. :)

So perhaps we didn't fail in our goal as we thought? The KT, were, in fact, Redeemable. You can call the war a dark time in the KT history if you wish...but look what grew from it.

I've been retired from UD more or less for some time now. Just doing some travelling through Malton to visit old friends. I'm a man of peace now. Don't shoot me when I show up. Assuming you are still around...we'll see. --Hibernaculum 02:38, 9 September 2011 (BST)
