Ah what do we have here, carleon decided to join the clan, and try to start something up all at the same time, how awesome. Well, here we go.
First off, I'm surprised you say you got an email from me as I thought every single email I ever sent you, trying to get you more involved, bounced back to me due to the account being bogus. I'm not sure when you got that particular email from me, but I'm sure it's true as I have on 2 or 3 occasions tried to contact you about your lack of participation. I am also surprised to hear you've had such problems getting on the forums. Yet when you lose your admin and get booted from the clan, well now it would seem you figured it all out, so I suppose that was some pretty fortunate timing, good for you.
Now moving on, trying to take what you've brought up in order... Is Josh a clan leader? Is he really the one who you should be going to with ideas on how you can contribute? I mean if you had come to me I'd of told you we didn't need another HL2DM server. We have 3 and only 2 of them are popular. If we had 3 popular HL2DM servers then yeah, maybe we'd want a 4th, but since this game is older and the fan base continues to shrink, I think your money could of been better spent elsewhere. As has been posted, to be an official TKC server, all access information has to be turned over to the clan leaders so we can set it up as close to the other servers as possible including mod's and such. But hey, the thought was there apparently so that is good.
Next point. Because you haven't been active with the clan outside of showing up on flem or squids server to play, you weren't aware of all the requirements that have been handed down over time to our server admins. We've had a couple of server admin meetings to discuss these changes but you never managed to make those so I guess you were unaware. You have apparently also missed the requirements of all members of the clan that they have to remain active BEYOND playing on the servers. A real effort has to be made to come to the events we plan though a lot of people have other things to do at those times and that is understandable. I guess my problem with your membership is, you never have shown up to ANYTHING that I can remember. In all these months, closing in on a year soon, you haven't joined your clan mates for a single dang thing. You hadn't even registered for the forums until recently, and if you had trouble you could of come to me just like everyone else does if they can't figure something out or are having some difficulty.
On to Kingloser's wife.. nothing has 'changed', I don't need to change my tactics and take a different path to justify anything I'm doing, so no, the deal with Kingloser's wife is something that happened many months ago, and at that time I choose not to do anything about it but I never forgot. I have no doubt that you don't remember cussing at her as it was so long ago and from the things I've heard, you cussing at someone might not be so uncommon, but I haven't necessarily seen that firsthand so I don't know. Rest assured however, you cussing at King's wife DID happen. Apparently you don't have a memory that extends back much beyond 3 months if you think you've never seen me on the server, but whatever, I hear vitamin C is good for that.
I find it very interesting that "many" have said that I've "threatened them"? I'm not sure what you're talking about, but if someone isn't living up to the standards set forth for the membership of TKC then yeah, I'm in a position to let them know that if they can't do what's expected of them, we'll have to let them go. In the future, if there is one, if you want to be notified of what's going on, try using a valid email and posting on the forums you don't have time for. TKC isn't about playing on flem's or squid's, wearing a tag, and that being it. No one is asking anyone to post 20 times a day, but if you checked the boards once or twice a week, and posted here and there, well then, at least we'd know you were somewhat interested in us and we'd be able to better communicate.
I'm sorry you feel as though I'm being abusive by following the rules that have been set down for the clan. Being a day 1 TKC doesn't mean you don't have to live by the same requirements as everyone else. I think if you were more aware of what was going on you'd of known you could come to me with your problems or concerns and I'd of done my best to deal with them and help. Of course, only if I wasn't busy abusing the members and the good name of TKC.
