Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Yesterday at 03:59:57 PMGuys, this is getting nasty and excessive.

Maybe we take a minute to all agree that we should treat each other with reasonable respect, for the sake of the country if nothing else? We can disagree fiercely about things, and even not be particularly fond of each other, without degrading into open discord like this.

Maybe we could do a team building thing where we all agree on how we want to help the country?

I agree. Maybe we can agree to end the sex pest name-calling you both have partaken in? Deal?

On a more serious note: I thought the Duke of Lupul had become a very bad king and the abdication was a good thing. However, he is a good man, not a registered sex pest, and not un gens qui n'endure pas la moindre critique et la qualifie de HAINE !!!, so yes, he'd be a preferable candidate than the two on offer right now.

Please, please get some rest before we find out how many languages you can yell spittle-flecked tirades in. :(

Both Florencia Senate candidates can agree on this. Miestra is truly unhinged.

Quote from: Françal I. Lux on November 03, 2025, 08:19:27 PM@Françal I. Lux , you were around at least one of the times he did this before - during the Proclamation Crisis. Do you remember how he almost got the Secretary of State - now the King - to renounce his citizenship? Do you remember how I had to take six months off Talossa because his smear campaign/moral panic had meant I had to take sleeping pills to function?

And yes, I'm sorry to say, I do have personal animosity towards the Baron. I'm not ashamed of it. Thankfully, you can work constructively with someone despite personal animosity.

What seems clear from the exchanges between Alexandreu and Miestra is that she needs a break but does not know how to take one. And that she is doing Michalgh and the URL no favors with her prominence in this campaign.

The Greens support less of this type of campaigning and more time to actually govern. Miestra, please get your well-deserved rest.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on November 03, 2025, 08:11:48 PMHere's the explanation from the Most Honourable Seneschal for why she lobbied her party to kill the bill:

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on October 22, 2025, 02:37:30 PMThe Baron put the Public Process Bill in the Hopper at the height of his dudgeon ... I made one snide comment, then more or less ignored it. I hoped he would calm down about it and it would go by the wayside; so I was disappointed that he took it to the CRL for the Sixth Clark. It was clearly too late by then to make further principled arguments against it. So, I just decided to lobby my party to vote against it.

Let me say this right now:  If I am fortunate enough to get the support to lead our amazing little country, I won't be turning away anyone's help.

• If you present a bill fixing an important issue, I'll vote for it.  Even if you're not in my party.  If I don't agree with the bill, I'll work with you to amend it.  If that's not possible, I'll try to fix it myself in my own version.  We won't ignore it or fight it, just out of partisanship.
• If you pose a terpelaziun identifying a problem, I will listen to you.  And if you're right, I'll try to fix that problem.  I won't always succeed.  Some problems are difficult and thorny.  But we'll try, and we'll commiserate together if we fail.
• If I fall short in representing Talossa, speaking intemperately, I will apologize.  And I'll try to do better.  I'm only human, but one of the best things about being human is that we can always try to improve.
• If you want to help the country with something, or you have an idea, or you have a question: we'll be there to try to help you.  We're all in this little community together, and we can all help make it a great place to be.
• If you remind me of this pledge when I have broken it, I will thank you for the reminder.  And I'll try again.

Bookmarking this...both for Miestra's admission of lobbying her party to vote against an obvious fix for the issue she is now under attack for. And also for Alexandreu's incorrect claim (based on the URL/Progressive Alliance Joint Statement) that he won't turn away anyone's help.

For the sake of transparency this will be the spot for Green legislation that has the potential to be introduced to the Hopper for the 62nd Cosa (there may have been additional discussion in the Green Party Discord)

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on November 03, 2025, 05:28:24 PMActually, what is the point of this back and forth? @Barclamïu da Miéletz I am removing your video of the Talossan National Anthem. Fora Talossa should only host material from people who are happy to associate with the channel. Please feel free to confirm its removal at your convenience.

Quick edit to note there was a second video Barclamiu which was some kind of EAS-themed video you made. That video along with the Talossan National Anthem video has been deleted as well but please let me know of others on the site and I can remove those as well.

Anything that has my face and body on it.

If you find other videos featuring your likeness, Barclamiu, please do let me know. I only found those two. As mentioned FT is complying with your request.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on October 27, 2025, 10:49:22 AM@Barclamïu da Miéletz you are welcome to help with Fora Talossa. I believe we already host a video of your piano composition of Talossa's National Anthem.

You know, I'd like for you to take the video of me down and delete the file from your device (or devices) itself.

Actually, take any video of me down and delete the files from your device (or devices).

Reconfirming this request has been completed, Barclamiu. As I mentioned the door to cooperation will remain open on my side should FT have the opportunity to host videos from you again.

After Barclamiu's notice I have removed his two videos. Now I recall another request from Alexandreu to not host his videos which I had interpreted to mean no future cooperation but it may also mean hosting of any videos.

As mentioned in my reply to Barclamiu, Fora Talossa does not intend to cause discomfort, to host videos against folk's will or for people who might not want to be associated with the channel.

Videos featuring Alexandreu (I found a total of four) have been removed from the channel.

Anyone else who does not wish to be included in the channel please do let me know.

Quote from: Barclamïu da Miéletz on November 03, 2025, 05:09:03 PMFollowing this reply under one of my posts, I request you, @Breneir Tzaracomprada, to take down any videos of me that are on Fora Talossa and delete the files from your device or possible devices.

If you will not cooperate I will not hesitate to take legal action, both in and outside of Talossa if deemed necessary.

Sorry, just to be clear, what law are you claiming I would be violating by not taking down a video you shared for publication with Fora Talossa?

Copyright most likely. As creator of the video, Barclamïu has exclusive rights over its distributions, and he just announced that he terminated your licence, if you will.

There is no licensing agreement, though. What specific law is being violated since we are dealing with a threat of litigation here.

It does? How so?

The political cartoons write themselves :D

Yeah, I guess they do? Someone calling me a resident of Predator's Alley is a joke to you...

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on November 03, 2025, 04:31:25 PMAnyway, what's this I hear about you broosking Barclamiu?

I, uh, don't think I voted for you or Alexandreu to call me a sex pest, a verpa, or being a resident of Predator's Alley. I didn't vote in support of your toxic and destructive words which have yet to be called out.

If you are suddenly against moral panics then you are welcome to denounce the one you stirred up for months.
