Over the past few weeks, there has been much discussion in the 10000 Islands regarding the actions of The Rejected Realms (TRR) and in particular the action of Sedge, Crazy Girl and other nations of TRR. To summarize, two current admins in TRR forum, Sedge & Crazy Girl, recently acted to secretly invade the region of The South Pacific. This was not an action to defend their region or others, but was just a flat out invasion that they perpetuated under secret identities.
Since the invasion, TRR has put out a statement to distance themselves from this hostile act. Unfortunately, this is not enough. Before I go any further, it is important to note the TRR was one of the regions that came to the aid of the 10000 Islands when we were once a small 20+ nation region that was attacked unfairly and without reason from the Empire of Power in 2003. If it was not for the help of TRR we would not be around today. So, with that being the case, TRR & Crazy Girl have had special places in 10000 Islands history. We have always been grateful for the past acts to save our once tiny region.
Sadly, the region that once helped to save us, is now harboring invaders and accepting the actions of those types of hostile nations. The Rejected Realms of 2003 is not The Rejected Realms of 2011. TRR claims to be a neutral region, but when several top officials attack a sovereign region, and no real action is taken, there is a problem. As of now, two of the nations responsible for this act, Sedge & Crazy Girl, still have admin access to the forum of TRR! Upon finding out the invading actions of those two nations, immediate forum bans/removal from any official positions should have taken place. Several weeks after this event, there is still just talk of possible sanctions.
Beyond that, TRR has also allowed several other invading nations to gain footholds in governmental positions. With the actions of TRR nations in The South Pacific & the inclusion of pro invading nations, we in the 10000 Islands no longer see TRR as a "neutral" region. Actions speak louder than words and the actions of TRR are troubling at best. This also shows a trajectory that does not bode well for the future of TRR.
With that being said, and also unanimously approved by the 10000 Islands Council of Nine, the embassy between the 10000 Islands and TRR is hereby closed. The nations of Sedge & Crazy Girl are hereby banned from the 10000 Islands forum and will be changed to "Enemy Faction" status. The nation of Biyah, formerly banned for harassing 10000 Islanders, will also be changed to "Enemy Faction" status as well.
I strongly believe that a cancer has been allowed to grow within TRR which has led to current events, but I do not believe it has to stay like this. The relations between our two regions may have been destroyed because of these events, but I do hold out some hope that in the future TRR will return to the principles that made it a great region. I also hope that this is just the low point in the relationship of our two regions. I would welcome a return of formal relations between TRR & the 10000 Islands if the region changes direction and moves toward the ideals that helped to protect little regions like us back then rather than harbor invaders and tolerate their company.
Sincerely,
