The massed armies of TB stand proud and glorious, unbeatable, unstoppable with victory always within their grasp.
Surveying the scene, and noticing the enemy quaking in their boots the King of TB, backed by his elite bodyguard decided it was time to punish the Court Jester for his continual crimes against the innocent people of the land.
So the Court Jester, was hauled by his ears to stand trial in front of the massed TB ranks. Any lesser person would be quaking, but the Jester will always find a way out of his predicament, and defiantly stood before the King.
Well, the Jesters crimes were read out, and it was agreed by all he should be punished in some way. A hanging seemed to be the prefered option by many, as this would indeed make a great spectacle. But the King, decided things had got to such a point, he would condemn the Jesters soul to eternity in hell.
The amassed crowds gasped. The Castle Guards, whilst loyal to the King and TB, wanted no more to do with it. The ruffian .M.ercenaries gathered around, hardened fighters that they are - were undecided. Many thought the Jester should pay, but condemning his soul to hell seemed to be going to far. Many mercenaries gathered around the Jester to protect him.
What followed, was an orgy of violence. An upsetting spectacle for many, with blood and anger spilled all over the castle grounds. The Jester was chased all over the castle, with huge beasts of destruction snapping on his heels. Some mercenaries sought to protect him, and some bitter fighting broke out between them and the elite TB bodyguard. The mercenaries were beaten although they were split in their ranks. Some were exiled from TB. The Jester, like the shadow he is, escaped with his life. The King stood firm.
Order was eventually established. Peace was made between the loyal TB ranks. Ruffian mercenaries were forgiven.
The Jester slipped away into the night...
Rumours abound that up to four people masquerading as the King have been spotted in the lands...
Having escaped with his life, the Jester is scheming his schemes. Come the next democratic TB voting, there could be the real King standing, amongst four imposters. How will the loyal TB spot the difference when faced with such trickery ?
Could the Jester be King ...
The Jester maybe a knave, but sometimes you have to see the funny side.

Last thing I heard was the Jester is wanking off thinking about all the attention he got...... And you got the story a little wrong. It had nothing to do with anything done outside TB, and the "king" (now we wouldnt want him too get too flustered, eh) only got involved in the very end. Actually it was all Maries fault  |

Actually it was all Maries fault TBH i think its more your fault. Take for example last night at M tower where the jester was telling me how the king ordered the TB people to hack the jester and handed out his IP for all to read. There was this guy in fire clothing provoking the jester a few times. I wonder why that idiot didnt leave the jester alone and insisted on provoking him. AF |

There was this guy in fire clothing provoking the jester a few times. I wonder why that idiot didnt leave the jester alone and insisted on provoking him. AF AF, as usual it would help if you made sure you know the whole story first... Last night started with Elric chasing after and insulting a char of mine (which wasnt played by me even, but the person phoned me) and Marie. I didnt know that that tamer is Elric, Elgin Egwaw or something like that. So when I saw him, I made fun of him. Friday night started with Elric whining about OS on the TB map, which he did permanently since Marie joined. He also insulted me on the map the days before, which I was told by multiple TB people. We have ignored Elric for ages, although we would have loved to take steps against him. We only started to actively ridicule him AFTER he spammed the UOAM with insults. We will continue to do that, cause he is just a sad little no-life (Hi Elric, this is for you  ). He can continue to waste his time trying to convince people of our evilness, cause we dont care... If you dont like our actions, thats your problem. We dont like the actions of most TB, who happily profit from Elric, either  |

Any fault it was, punishment ordered by the king giving the IP adress was a way too far.
Our realm is supposed to be a game. When punishment can go out of our game, it means it went too far.

Aleister (TCG) Do you seriously believe that? Steve banned Elric from HIS UOAM server, which is his perfect right. Elric kept logging on with changed IPs multiple times. The one Steve gave out on the map (not in public) was already changed 5 secs later. No one on the TB map who heard that IP was seriously thinking about doing anything with it. And even if someone had tried, it already wasnt Elrics IP anymore, which Steve knew. |

When i would ask for the IP of a random user from an ISP or from and of the mods on this board here i wouldnt get it either. AF |

Hehe well i hope so ;D For the luck we'll see But to clarify things, this was a GUILD decision. We stated that we couldnt support an action that has ANYTHING to do with game (IP adress). And as AF said, even if this could change every half of second, its still personnal an absolutely not an ingame issue. So we decided to have a break from TB. Maybe we should come back maybe not. Once again, all what will be decided , will be done by ALL guild members. Like the decision of leaving was. We want to have fun, and what happened (once again according with OUR opinion) hasnt anything to share with fun. I am acting here as spokesman of TCG but you can always ask Red Sonja to have any confirmation on this, if you trust her more than me. Aleister (TCG) |

Aleister (TCG) I banned Elric from my UOAM which runs on my IP. Elric kept logging back in despite me warning him to stay out. Since Elric was "hammering", "attacking" and "flooding" MY IP/PC, I gave it out his IP to the people on the UOAM for everyone to attack him. This worked, he didn't log on anymore. Like Nal allready said, elric gets a dynamic IP from his DSL provider every time he logs in. His DSL provider has a B-class IP range which means the pool has (255*255) 65025 possible IP's. This is technical information I know (and so does Nal), but I realised too late that others are not aware of this and thats why it could seem so serious and offensive. You can ask any Internet expert about this and he will confirm my explanation. Now Elric knows this too, but he uses it to win over people for his "cause". If you wish to leave TB over this, then so be it, good luck to wherever you go. Regards, Steve B. Commanding Lord of the True Britannians |
