Subject: STATE OF PLSH My Fellow Citizens, The state of PLSH is wounded. I am not going to stand here and pretend this week was easy. You have heard the rumors. You deserve the truth, and you deserve it from me. What Happened On November 4, I was at work. My game was logged in, so I showed as online. I was not at the screen. DAVYM206 asked for R4. Four minutes later, he left the alliance. While he was gone, he attacked my base. When he came back, I gave him R4 in good faith. Within 15 minutes, without a word to me or the R4 team, he: • Let Ediva back in, the member I had removed that morning • Brought in ChillinVamp • Removed Chaptu, the founder of PLSH That evening he also accepted Officer Shock, the player the alliances of 395 agreed to ban on October 29. Sun ran the back end of PLSH: ranks, Canyon Clash, city paths, Glory War picks, and our relationships with your alliances. She left that afternoon. Kappasugi, Zee88, Caílynn, Frollein Anne, Le-with-1E and Blůe followed. Fighters. Longtime members. By DAVYM206's own count, PLSH lost about 1 billion power in a single day. Chaptu Chaptu built PLSH. Chaptu gave me the opportunity to serve. His seat was being held for his return, and he earned that seat. Removing him was not a roster change. It was a statement. And PLSH heard it loud and clear. Executive Order As R5 of PLSH, I hereby order the following: • DAVYM206 is removed from PLSH. • The R4 team is restored to what it was before November 4. • Chaptu is invited back. His seat is his. Whenever he returns. No player overrides an alliance's leadership. Not the strongest. Not the richest. Not anyone. Tough Love DAVYM206, you have fought for PLSH and for 395, and nobody forgets that. But strength does not give anyone the right to rebuild an alliance in an afternoon. This is not goodbye forever. The door reopens with an honest conversation with me and the R4 team, an acknowledgment of what happened, and a commitment to work through leadership, not around it. The same goes for everyone involved this week. Disagreements belong in private, with leadership. Not in alliance chat. Not behind anyone's back. And to PLSH: we drifted. We got hungry to stay on top at any cost, and we stopped acting like a team. Being the strongest means nothing if we are not coordinated. When every week is win or the end of the world, people burn out. That ends now. The Rules Going Forward Membership and rank changes go through the R5 and the R4 team. No exceptions. Problems are raised in private with leadership. Respect the people who do the work, especially when you disagree with them. Live by these and you are welcome in PLSH. That includes the people involved this week. To Every Alliance This is a PLSH decision, not a state rule. I am not asking anyone to take sides. I ask every R5 on 395 for one thing: respect each alliance's decisions about its own members, the way PLSH has always respected yours. To everyone who left PLSH this week: the door is open. Your place is still here. A loss is not a verdict. A loss is a lesson. We are still here. We are still standing. And PLSH is not finished. I was never a perfect leader, and at times I am wrong. Not this time. Thank you for your attention to this matter. -Imwrong President of the United States
