 Topic: The BOK war, by Metallicus, by NokigonPosted: 05 Apr 2011 at 22:57 |

Quote from The BOK war, by Metallicus, by Nokigon, posted on The Travellers' Tale - Histories:
" The brotherhood were swiftly brought to their knees and in their last hour of desparation the called upon a greater guild named the Calaquendi. These scurrilous peace lovers were faint of heart but great in numbers" Nokigon, If this is propaganda you normally reserve for your younger DB members and, by accident, you posted on the public forums, I expect you to apologize and remove this quote. If you adopt this opinion, please let me know if it is your personal opinion or the official opinion of DB. Is Metallicus aware that you posted his story? I thought he was inactive. |

I don't see what the big deal is, I'm sure your side has it's share of propaganda? I mean when I left Darkblight as Reospeedwagon and was attacked by Uuntaar, they told all their members I did something hostile first. Everyone has their own propaganda, so why are you complaining? Just sit back and enjoy the story!
Note: I'm not spouting hate for that, I'm not trying to being up the past, just making a point that every alliance has its own propaganda. Edited by Attila the Hun - 05 Apr 2011 at 23:27 |

I like to think that
some people try to represent the facts as best they know them, and even when writing material with propaganda-like goals don't stretch the truth.
In the case of material disclaimed up front as fiction, the lines are blurred--but what can you do? |

Metal is indeed inactive, and this was the tale that he created. I am merely passing on his legacy.
I would like to explain what happened:
This tale is on the external DB forums, and I copied and pasted it onto a 'Post Reply' page. I had completely forgotten about that quote; rest assured that if I had not then I would've gotten rid of it.
I apologise, and will delete the offensive post.
However, I would just like to add that this is not 'Propoganda.' No, it is merely a mistaken impression given by events. This is an assumption, however; the only person that knows the true course of events is Metal himself.

I think a quote from winnie churchill has much relevance here:
History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
