As DR pointed out, my point is that there is no new leader.
Does anyone in PA have full control over the alliance forums? have the ability to boot problem players? promote promising members? etc etc.....
If it is true that Lorre has left the game, as they have claimed. It would be better for the active members of this alliance to reform under a new banner, one they have full control of.

I'm sure the PA members find your concern touching. Perhaps we should give them the respect of letting them choose what to do.

I am not saying they should not CHOOSE themselves, merely questioning their CHOICE.
Am simply offering advice as my alliance was actually formed as a group of players left an alliance, where the leader had lost motivation and only logged on once a fortnight or so.
Lets put it this way, they are out to recruit new members, hence the existance of this thread, but if you were looking for an alliance to join, would you choose one where the leader had gone AWOL?

I suppose your point is more valid then say starting a war over PA memberships choice to continue on forcing the issue like another alliance did...(~KT~ vs. Havoc)
But, then the members of PA will also probably look for "Darkwords" in the game and find that there is no such player. Further, if one reviews the posts from "Darkwords" it will further show that there has been nothing but negativivity vs. anything regarding PA.
So, then the question is more why should any members of PA care about the opinion of this anonymous poser.

If they haven't figured out who I am by now then I feel even more sorry for them. And if you really reveiwed my posts you would know who I am.
Its true that there is little friendship between myself and PA, but I am honestly just stating the obvious at this point.
Unless they do have full control over their alliance workings, in which case they should decide on a new leader and promote him/her to that position (unless of course, the claims of Lorre leaving are false). Then their alliance will have little appeal to new members.
If they dont have full control, then it would be far better for them to found a new alliance, where they would have the control.
Anyone arguing that they should remain in an alliance that they do not have control over, is doing them a huge dis-service and they should consider what the motives behind such advice really are.

Anyone that is for members sticking with an alliance that will not have one member in control of all the leadership options is really kidding themselves. Lorre left the game, make a new alliance with a similar name and renap and confed all of those alliances again.
Rill normally gives good advice for new players or members in general. However, I think she is more into propaganda right now. For whatever reason, she seems to care more about Lorre losing members while he is afk then the actual members themselves that will depend on a member that has that leadership option. Who knows? Maybe there is a capable replacement of Lorre or maybe not...
Rill and the rest of the H? propaganda machine is just blowing white smoke up everyones ***.
I am not looking out for Lorre at all since he has left the game. I am looking for the best interest of said members in his alliance at heart here. No propaganda, just common sense.

It really seems that Lorre's claims are false. Otherwise the members would be leaving. They must know he is coming back and this whole him leaving fiasco is just an act to make players forget about him for a bit.

And I am sure you have approached some of them in game to ascertain why they remain in PA rather than come here and publicly dis on them some more...
The advice being given by the others to remain or to leave, it is in fact no advice at all. What is being offered is that those of us that are truly concerned with the membership of PA and have shown such concern with our actions in game, respect their decision to remain and grow their alliance while they sort their internal issues out.

I have nothing against people wanting to keep their in-game identity secret.
But then stop doing this kind of bragging - that you feel sorry for people who don't know your true identity or that it is worthwhile to review your posts to find out who you are.
