I am not resigning, do not take this as a resignation in any way, shape, or form. This is moreless in case I need to take the last resort.
I apologize for butting in; wait a minute, I don't.

The above mentions that you will not appoint a new governor, that the leaders of the other kingdoms will. If you are indeed supportive of RP means and mechanics for this game, then you are in fact commiting an act of heresy in the sense of pirates. Why should other kingdoms have influence on pirates? Have you forgotten what it means to be a pirate? I can understand for OOC matters why you would want approval for an heir, but then again, the political position of 'Governor' is in fact an elected position.

I can understand if you would not want to appoint your own successor, I commend you for this. Would it not make more sense, then, for your own members to decide who should take the reins after you decide to leave? I mean, who is impacted the most by the next leader after you decide your time is done? The actual members of the kingdom.

I feel your pain on the matters of your family and sickness with those you hold close to you. You must also understand, that these matters were not known to anyone until you responded to this post. To be honest, it is your responsibility as a leader to keep your people informed. By doing so, you will find it easier to find people you can 'trust' with the commands needed to keep the kingdom's flow even when personal matters take you away from the computer.

Good luck, pirates.

How about the pirate members selecting someone a majority would like to have as leader, then the other leaders comment on that person and if nothing comes up, he or she is chosen.

having other kingdom leaders aid in the selection of a new governor would be OOC. When that person is selected, an IC RP would be developed for that individual.

I know all the kingdom leaders wouldn't want CP to have to have a non-pirate leader, a vote would undoubtly be involved. The role of Kingdom leaders in the selection would likely just to be sure it was a fair process.

The one that was nominated for Governor when Valder left was passed by.

Sorry, Nalle. I didn't intend for some kind of argument or to be against you. I was just pointing out how things aren't very consistent. (You were helped and I wasn't.) But since you bring it up... are you proud of having over 200 members listed in your kingdom? Do you know how many people even play GK (it's probably only 200, people come and go)? Having 200 members likely means your list lacked cleaning.

Oh I have the rest of the story. I know you and Hawk went around asking the members how they felt about me and the questions weren't given in a neutal tone either. In other words you were trying to get them to go against me. When you were dissappointed at their answers you abused the bug anyways.

By the way most of the people in the kingdom didn't even know who you were, much less wanted you as king.

Yes, I did notice that. I think everyone noticed it seems odd that the person (Notice Damix and Crint_Eastawood supported Cyrin, as well as myself... no other person was voted for more than once like that) who was nominated was ignored while the person who was given Governorship was not even mentioned and was only then said to be "not lazy" upon being chosen and the thread was closed...

Yesus, Mark is one Era all the time, but not on GK x-x Revolution i tell you!!!

Really, screw my apologies. If you care more about Era then GK, sell your GK items for Era items, and hand the kingdom over to someone who is active.

I haven't heard any rumours lately, but if they're true he'd deny them, and if they're not true, there would still be people believing/spreading them o_o

These aren't really rumors... these are more like things that people are suspecting highly and keeping the lid on to try and find out the truth if possible (it's probably not possible...). You're the first to bring this out in the open like this Probably a big mistake to do so... Oh well...

I do know this- it does seem interesting that people say MarkB bought the kingdom, and then he starts trying to promote this idea of me being the one who was trying to sell CP for USD when I was Governor- it's like he's getting the idea of accusing me for something by thinking about something he himself did. I never tried to sell CP. Consider this: If I wanted to sell CP, I would have done it instead of Valder taking the kingdom for me. There was conflict in the kingdom for days (a few people didn't want to RP...so then others brought up their different arguments... and I solved problems, except for the people who wanted to join an RP group and NOT RP); that was the perfect opportunity to pack my stuff and sell the kingdom if I wanted to do that. Instead, I fixed problems. I'm sure if I just stated my intention of selling the kingdom, someone who liked pirates would have been angry at me and quickly made an offer to save the kingdom (because when a kingdom leader is involving himself in USD-trades for the kingdom, no good can come of it).
