I'm sorry. But there's an old saying EVERYONE here ought to know.

You don't diddly another man's wife. Plain and simple.

Twitch started the Pigs. He may not be the de facto leader, but he is ALWAYS the founder. I don't know what the situation is, but what's his is his. The POTW have been an AHII staple for years, and I hate to see them go. And to anyone calling twitch a menstruating banana; You can't blame a man fighting to defend what's his.

That is all.

twitchy. your a cry baby. plane and simple. if you start a bussiness retire and sell it. you can't come back in a year or 2 take it back and demand it to change. witch is what you were trying to do with POTW. you left Syko took over and made the squad into somethin you never could. we are furballers base takers, GVers, what ever alows us to get our $15 worth. we all do our own thing but still back each other up when needed. you couldn't accept this lil fact when you came back so we as a squad booted you. and although we MAY LET you take the name POTW we are still going to be pigs. and the OINK stay's with us. don't like it. cry about it in another post. or take it up with me in the DA. <FINGER> TWITCH TARD

Twitchy- glad you got the name back.  Even though I don't really think there's "ownership" of that name, it stank of dirty pool (or pig-pen). 

I have more respect for the "old" pigs that returned the name to you.

But, more importantly, I think the "not" in your quote should be "naught" (as it is later on in your quote).

Kurtank I suggest you drop that name as it was used a few years back.

I was going by his earlier posts, where he mentioned a "temporary" leave.  I didn't see "divorce" or "retire", but I could be mistaken.  I don't care enough to look back.

The important thing is the "not/naught" aspect of his posts.

The wife thing- if she remarries me, I'd say we're back to "equals" right?  Or does she now control me?  If it was going to be that way, I wouldn't re-marry her.  How would that effect my name?

IMO, if he really did come up with the name originally, it's the nice thing to do (giving it back).  I wouldn't say he "owns" the name, but I wouldn't say the rest of you do either.  Don't attach more weight to my opinion than it deserves though; if you don't like it, just ignore it.

Stop with the metaphors... its not a wife or a job its a squad. It has evolved and is no longer in his control now be done with it. He chose to give up all rights and command when he decided to leave us, no matter what the reason. We keep the squad and the name, you keep the "change" Mr.Obama... er herm I meant twitchy..

I read his posts, and saw his little campaign ads for 'President Syko', and the simple truth of the matter is that Syko had somewhat dishonest delusions of granduer and rather than actually leading the squad, he formed his own elite score wing and let waystin lead the rest of you guys... Syko was my best friend for nine years, until the day I read his posts on the forum and what he had been saying while I was gone, it was pretty devastating stuff to be honest with you. I'm sitting here drinking coffee from a Squad CO coffee mug he sent me right now and it's not a pleasant thing to go through, but he knows what the score is.
 
For nine years squat, the cohesion of the squad was our only requirement, and that was what made the POTW. Yeah he turned it in to something, but it wasn't Pigs on the Wing, it was Syko's Autonomous Collective. The only changes I wanted to make was to get rid of one smart alek, and bring the squad back into cohesion where it belonged. Doing your own thing is fine, hey I spend 15 bucks just like you do, but doing your own thing isn't what POTW was about, and Syko knew that when he 'took over'.

Syko could have simply started his own squad, any player can. Rather than starting his own, he chose to use and claim credit for the squad's 10 year legacy, sorry but that one thing is completely unacceptable to me.
Like I said before, any player, upon joining the game can choose to start their own squad, but not surprisingly most choose to join an established squad, and when you figure out why that is you can begin to understand the signifigance of your role as a CO and a squad leader. I didn't lead POTW for nine years by being a draconian dictator, but the squad didn't last as long as it did by letting the members fly around and do whatever they wanted. When the Pigs fly, they do so in a herd, or they have no right calling themselves Pigs on the Wing in the first place, Syko included. He used to boot people himself for that very reason FYI.

I'm sorry you don't know me better, I'm actually a pretty decent guy, and I am, or well, used to be a hell of a good squad leader. I will be rebuilding the Pigs on the Wing, and all old the Pigs are welcome, no questions asked. I don't care if you oink or not, I know who oinked the first oink, and it wasn't Syko or myself, but I started the squad and named it, and built it around one simple concept, cohesion. Play for score, just pick a name that doesn't have a ten year history on this game already. Pigs travel in a herd, I'm sorry if that was too much for you guys to handle but it takes a little commitment above and beyond the ordinary, but that's the one single thing that made us POTW.
