DUST Search - PFC Council

Dear members of the council,

The first round of the maintenance fee is due on Monday by 23:59 UTC. The ISK will need to be sent to Spero Escrow Services. After some discussion with several members of the council, the weekly amount has been set at 8.75 million ISK, which amounts to less than one day of clone generation. If/when PC mechanics are changed in the future the contract with PFC will be readdressed.

This rate paired with the rule under consideration that attacks are only to be launched on full districts should allow PFC districts to remain active while also maintaining financial viability for the district owner to help fund any expenses associate with training operations.

This will also allow Negative-Feedback to ensure the highest quality of service in regards to removing PFC district owners that are locking their districts and place members that will provide a more active and higher quality experience for all of PFC. The weekly maintenance fee also covers any cost associated with providing ringers in the case of an attempt to illegally flip a district either by a PFC member or an external organization. Please notify me at least 24 hours in advance in-game at "Kane Spero" by forwarding your defense notification for any suspected illegal attempts to flip a district. Lastly, if the council votes to remove a member from PFC due to a rules violation or failure to comply with a punitive action ordered by the council, Negative-Feedback will enforce the decision through removal of that corporation from PFC. Negative-Feedback has an experienced team in dealing with locked districts and district locking will not prevent NF from enforcing any needed actions. Also, as a reminder, any PFC member that has not contributed to the weekly maintenance fee will be found in breach of contract and will be scheduled to have another corporation that has a current request in for a PFC district take their place.

Negative-Feedback would like to thank council's cooperation in this matter. We look forward to working with the council and ensuring that PFC reach its full potential.

Sincerely,

Kane Spero

Sincerely, Kane Spero Kane, You have posted this decision without consulting the counsel that has been announced. The "vote" held included 5 people only, and you are now demanding payment from all. A true governing body, as the one you purport to be, should be giving notices to all members of this counsel and all members should be given an opportunity not only to vote, but to offer debate as well. The result is that the corporation you own has been "awarded" over 200 million ISK per month for "management" of PFC. On the surface, one might argue that this is an extortion racket: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extortion_racket The only way this should be agreed upon is if the majority of all district owners agree to this, and there is transparency as to the purpose of this money. Specifically, the following needs to be made public knowledge: 1. What will this ISK be used for? 2. How does this benefit the community as a whole? 3. How does this benefit the corps/alliances in PFC? I'm sure others have additional questions, and that I will think of more myself. If you are prepared to open this decision to all PFC district owners for a full vote (which is the ideal), or at minimum to the members of the counsel, as well as to promise complete transparency for this by allowing the CEO's of each corporation to add an alt to your escow corporation with full Director rights to monitor the use of these funds, then I would be more accepting of this proposal. Given that all would be able to monitor transactions, you would in effect have a self policing force. I look forward to your reply, and hope you are as open as you have claimed to be. Sincerely, Forlorn Destrier Executor Legacy Rising Alliance What will be your legacy? Will you rise, or will you fall?

I'm sure that Men In Black Ops felt that they could hide behind a 1900 timer and a locked district, but they are being proven wrong. I'm happy that DR Feldersnatch is able to ferry this information to you while leaving out LRA's current exploitation of PFC district 2 since December 22nd of LAST YEAR. http://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/Oddelulf/III-District-2 Men in Black Ops is new to alliance - I am not accountable for anything that happened prior. That said, I fail to see how anyone should be bound by rules created by a man who breaks his own rules. In the future, I recommend you hold to your claim of allowing everyone to vote on issues as you said they would have before you try to enforce other rules you have arbitrarily decided on. I am curious though - who made you the leader of PFC? I mean, I know CCP named you to the CPM at a time when the community dispised you, but CCP wasn't involved in your most recent power grab. EDIT: Also good job avoiding the questions posed to you. What will be your legacy? Will you rise, or will you fall?
