There's some sheep here in the thread who look a little lost from the herd.

Twitchy was clawing for pity and trying to tear apart what has already been in existence and oinking along happily for the last decade without him.  We are not the same POTW that twitchy left behind to fend for itself in AH almost a decade ago (litteraly, our current senior leadership called Skuzzy when the original POTW was abandoned by Twitchy to have the old abandoned squad deleted and the current POTW founded with the same name).  Twitchy didn't unintentionaly destroy us the first time, damned if any of us are going to let him intentionaly try in round two.  We even listened to Twitchy when he came back, unforutnately we can't say the same was returned.  We don't want to change up the POTW or do things any different than what we've been doing for the past decade without him.  It's been a pretty damn good decade if we say so ourselves, but unfortunatley our founding leader who abandoned us for almost 10 years to fend and provide for ourselves disagrees.  This is why Twitchy is no longer a participant in the POTW message board, as likely any of us with malicious intent would be.  It seems he is quickly working for the privilage here on the AH general forums as well.

He is doing everything in his power now to enlist sympathy and persuade people of the general community that are not members of the POTW to support what he wants to do to the POTW.  The POTW would like to assure those of you not in POTW that: a) while your concerns are apreciated, the matter is unfortunatley none of your buisness (the same as non-American citizens should have no buisness voting in the president of the United States).  b) we are not taking the POTW that have been the way it has been for the past decade and turning it into "Twitchy's Fascist Base Takers - OINK!".  The "do-what-ya-want-or-come-join-the-rest-of-us-in-some-fun-oink" POTW as led by Syko WILL still be the same "do-what-ya-want-or-come-join-the-rest-of-us-in-some-fun-oink" POTW as led by Syko.  c) we are glad to have Twitchy back in the AH community and we still greatly respect and admire Twichy for one day, a very long time ago, starting the POTW name.  However that in no way means we're going to bend over and do what you want before taking into account what everyone else in POTW wants and will make the squad in general happier and healthier for another decade.

So now, lets seperate the sheep from the pigs here and end this thread.

So, you're saying Twitchy was NOT the CO for almost a decade?

Also, you're saying that Skuzzy had to replace Syko as the CO of POTW because Twitchy's name was still there?  Once a CO's account goes inactive, the squad is automatically disbanded.  Syko only then needs to send squad invites and have the new squad named the same as was before.

That is how it is now.  When I started (which comparatively wasn't that long ago), I was told all the names from old players were kept in the database and couldn't be re-used.  So if you left, let your account go, and wanted to come back sometime later (what I was contemplating), you would have to call HTC HQ to get your old handle reactivated, or come up with a new one.  I imagine it used to be the same for squad names ten years ago.

(More pig issues that don't need to be aired in public)

So now, lets seperate the sheep from the pigs here and end this thread.

The solution here is simple.

Do a 'Squad Ranking' look up on the AH homepage and see who had the name before whom.

Krupnski  appears to have become the CO of POTW in Nov. 2009.

Waystin2 appears to have become the CO of POTW in March 2009.

1BDSPADE appears to have been the CO of POTW from Aug. 2008

Syko appears to have become the CO of POTW in Oct. 2007.

Twitchy appears to have been the CO of POTW in Aug. 2002.


hmmm....

Lets go a step further and use 'Individual Statistics - Squad' to see what squad Syko was in before the Pigs.

I show him having an account that started one month after Twitchy started the Pigs 2002, yet he never was in a squad for most of the years he has flown.

Do explain to me how Syko was not even IN a sqad, let alone the POTW, before 10/07 and yet he "ran" the Pigs for 10 years?

How can a player "run" the POTW when he wasn't even IN the squad?

The only POTW squad I can find before 10/07 is Twitchy's.

Somebody is tossing about a bunch o' lies and from what I can tell, it ain't Twitchy.
(unless indeed this is another MOAT in which case I have been hooked)
