Citizens working in the current administration, fired?

Day 531, 10:45 • Published in USA USA

• by William Shafer

Over the last few days, I have been talking a lot in the eUSA forums. Most of it was an apology to the eUSA for accidentally alerting people of a secret military operation. This seems to be dying down now, but I noticed a few things.

In the IRC channel, I was talking to a few people in the Scrabman administration, and one of them in particular, Bill Brasky, mentioned he was fired from his position as the Director of Education (Not sure if I got this job title right, apologies if I didn't). When I asked why, he responded "For talking to you, Lol." I first heard Mr. Brasky was fired in the forum discussion, but still I don't know all of the details, so I'm not going to really get too deep into it, but I did get permission from Mr. Brasky to write this article and alert people. Now, I must pose two questions.

1) To Scrabman and his administration: I understand that you don't like me, personally, but are you really going to sink so low as to fire people simply because they talk to me?

2) To the eAmerican people: Do you accept this? People being fired from their position in the government just because they had a conversation with somebody else? Does this seem acceptable? It doesn't to me. eAmerica deserves a president who is honest and doesn't get his panties in a knot when two people talk about something completely unrelated to him.

Now, maybe this isn't a big deal. Maybe it is. Who knows. It was just on my mind, and I figured I'd write about it.

He was not fired because he talked to you.

William Shafer Day 531, 11:01

I heard otherwise.

inb4scrabman ignores this

Oliver Wendell Holmes Day 531, 11:09

So you're the person responsible for cancelling "the something big"? You ran your mouth and alerted our enemies? Is that right? And now we should believe YOU about anything?

Alot of people should be VERY pissed off at you. I'm surprised you would even show your face around here.

Emerick Day 531, 11:16

Oliver, I talked to the person who wrote up the plans that Shafer released. He told me that those weren't the "something big..."

William Shafer Day 531, 11:44

Not even close.

I didn't exactly reveal them. People already knew about it. Everybody was already talking about it when I "revealed" them.

Gosford Day 531, 12:59

Oliver: He shouldn't show his face in his own blog?

Nice job. Thanks for playing.

From what people we saying in a public room on IRC, he (along with navy) copied supposedly secure documents (the person who made the documents did not realize that they still could be copied...) and handed them out.

I agree with Gosford, he should have some shame, and just keep quiet.

Harrison, can you tell me why I was fired then? Quit talking out your ass about a situation you know nothing about. I was fired because Gaius Julius, Shafer, and I were talking on IRC about how Scrabman was being too secretive and wasn't telling anyone anything. Scrabman values loyalty over rational thought, and everyone needs to realize that.

It's hilarious when people say they agree with you, but clearly didn't understand what you were saying, right Gosford?

fingerguns Day 531, 15:27

If BillBrasky was fired for a different reason, I'd love to hear it.

William Shafer Day 531, 15:29

I thought after you stole the eSingapore military org that you were going to Russia? I like how you admitted that you went to eSingapore with the purpose to steal the treasury.

And didn't you try to TO eChile at one time. You also have screwed over eRussia if I recall as well. And now you claim to have "accidentally" revealed some classified military documents?

You're a bad joke, William Shafer, and no one is laughing.

--After I stole the Singapore military org, I returned it. That was my intention all along. Initially, we had planned on stealing the Singapore treasury, but we changed our minds.

--Chile? I never tried to TO it. I just moved there and tried to get involved with the government, mostly as an outreach from the US Government

--I never screwed over Russia. I helped build them a military back in December, but they didn't use it. I also helped the FRP gain control from the CPSU. FRP, being real-life russians. CPSU, being American teenagers.

Oh, hey, let's make personal attacks about Shafer so we can ignore the issue that our president is setting up some de facto eAlien and eSedition Acts. Or, you know, we could do something about Big Brother.

Gosford Day 531, 16:11

Tarik: uhh...actually you don't agree with me.

But thanks for playing.
