Due to recent events, Neo Federation will be returning partially for the rest of this reset and fully with the beginning of the next reset. For those that like to complain about a wall of text, that's all you need to read. Some musings will follow this statement.
Most Neo members were still playing in RD recently, and we were all shocked and confused when we saw that we were deleted for "rules violations". We checked Alliance Talk with everyone else, and read an admin account of how Boxcar had been breached, and personal data was potentially hacked. Some of us were bewildered, since we'd played with these guys for a while, and didn't expect anything like this. Regardless of their past, the majority of RD seemed relatively clean. After being deleted, a lot of us were confused- we didn't know if we wanted to play in whatever remained in RD, move to a different alliance, or stop playing altogether.
Out of this situation came a core of old NeoFed members who expressed the desire to stick together, no matter what. We've decided to reform the Neo Federation. Neo has always been a group of people who play the game cleanly and with honor, even if this game may punish people with those values. We are slowly coming back together under the xNeoFedx tag, and plan on being back into the swing of things next set.
Full leadership contacts will be posted soon, but I will be the primary FA contact for Neo. If you'd like to discuss anything from the current situation, to our plans moving forward, to how badly the Tennessee Titans are going to maul the Rams this weekend, I can be messaged through here, found on the EE IRC server at #earthempires and #neofederation, and messaged on ICQ at 198686984 (if I can remember the password).
As always, thanks for your time and we hope everyone has an interesting and fun rest of reset.
