Dear X-R Members and people that care about X-R,
I have seen a lot of activity lately on the X-R forums, and then i am not talking about the positive activity. Seagull
decided to get the clan better organized by giving some members a new rank, i have read the topic and i saw a lot
of hostility about his decisions.
I always believed that X-R was a online family, in a game that takes some time to understand. But X-R is and was one
of the few clans that did not base their ranks on skills in the game but what they have done for the family itself.
Offcourse, people will always disagree with some upranks that might happen, but that are things that are normall.
But to get hostile 'cause someone got a uprank and you didn't is something i can not understand.
A unprank in X-R means you have done somethin for the family and it's appreciated and they hope you'll continue to do
(great) things for the family. A rank itself doesn't matter that much in X-R, or at least, it shouldn't. But it seems
that these days it does, way more then it should. If someone has a high rank like Innos for example, it means he has
done a lot of good things for the family, and it's greatly appreciated. Everyone that has a rank, has done something
for the family. Now, by my suprise i have seen people that actually find that some people do not deserve the rank they got
or where given by the council and/or leader of X-R. That's understandable but to "flame" them for it, is something that should
not happen. If you personally think a certain member of the family does not deserve the respect he/she is getting then come with
proof or at least, find a way to express it in a friendly way. A family can only stay a family if everyone in it is kind to each
other and is proud to be a member of that family. Offcourse, people leave the family but that's normall. I doubt that most of you
will continue to live with their parents IRL for the rest of your life. At 1 time you want to get out on your own and do your own
thing. And offcourse, comparing RL and jk3 with each other is something you shouldn't do, or at least not at this level but you could
see use the wisdom and understanding that you have IRL, on jk3.
All of this is more of a request from a non X-R, that remembers how X-R used to be, to the current X-R members to look beyond the rank
and decisions people make, and think more of why they have that rank or why did that person make that decision. Everything happens for
a reason.
I want to thank you all for reading this and i do not suspect that any of you takes this seriously, i only wish you guys and girls would
think about it and come to realise that it has some truth about it.
Yours Truelly
