So, I decided it is time for us to move on from the drama. You guys are missing out on all the fun we are having over on the 360 side because of a few insignificant former members who enjoy getting attention over the internet instead of having fun playing the game.
We have a lot of big plans for the future and you guys are not going to miss out on anything.
plastictonkatoy has shown interest in being the leader for the PS3 division and you guys need one to get things organized. I am keeping his post below mine here so that you can see why he will make a good leader and an even better friend to play this game with. Make sure you add him to your friends list. I think he will be the guy to get you guys on the right track and have drama free fun in this game. Now that we have moved on... the real fun can begin. I hope to see you all here at the meet and greet on sunday. Thank you for making this board a better place. You all are awesome and only will be stronger now that the weeds have been plucked.

I guess I will throw my name on the ballot, I got nothing to lose.  I'm learning the in's and out's of Red Dead Redemption and am loving every minute of it. I'm hoping that once a few days have past, the multiplayer servers will pick up and MP will start to become more alive on the Playstation. So..you wanna know my vision of us and what would make me a good leader? Alright.. My vision for this posse is simple. I wanna see it have success. I want to see it grow to be a haven for those who are of the mature crowd and want a place to escape from the masses of no-micers and children who scream profanity when they are killed. I want it to be the group that people respect and talk about occasionally and speak good words of us. I want to see any new members be able to come in, have someone help them learn the ropes, and be able to stick with us and have FUN. I want to see us grow to be somewhat of a family. I want to see us be the symbol of FUN and TEAMWORK, but most of all..FUN. I am a EMT and Firefighter in real life as a volunteer and I also work on a paid ambulance service. My time with them as taught me leadership skills in the real world and how to act under stressful conditions. I have also been in leadership positions in other clans. Back in the days of PS2, I was a leader for the space division for Starwars Battlefront 2 with my clan and was also Asst. Leader for the main clan. We were pretty dang big too. I did take a break from the whole clan leadership thing with other games, such as Battlefield 2 Mod: Project Reality, opting for a simple grunt role with the occasional squad leading or map commanding. I would also occasionally take Wing Lead in sorties on Falcon 4.0: Allied Force on the Multiplayer servers. I have good administrative skills and I know I'm gonna be stuck with RDR for a good while as it has me hooked so I'm going to be fairly active. However, I will not make me seem like I'm not without flaws, as all humans are. I am not too acquainted with the leadership here on this forum or with a bunch of the members here. I have a few added, but everytime I've tried to get them to play with me..they didn't. But we got a long time to get acquainted and I will be more than happy to meet every single one of you all and make sure we have a blast. So..Vote for PlasticTonkaToy..Leader of the Gray Ghosts PS3 posse. |

So I have to confess something. Last night, I went on the Wanted posse's board and sent Nuahs a message stating that I'd like to follow him. But when I woke up this morning, I realized I had made a mistake, and that I really don't want to follow him. I don't like his style, his form, or his 50-ideas-each-hour methods. In truth, I really just wanted to reconnect with the members who abandoned the Gray Ghosts and eventually deleted me from their PSN list. I apologize that I'm bringing up this whole fiasco again, but I wanted to come clean. (plus, I'm apparently the #1 guy on their hit list, haha) (by the way, he hasn't replied back to me yet either...) I see a lot of potential in the Gray Ghosts. Our enthusiasm is getting better every day. Plus, what I enjoy the most about this group is that it's easily connected to the other posses on this website. Nuahs has completely isolated himself from other posses, and I really can't enjoy that if I were to join them. I've been with the Ghosts from the start. I would love to lead the Gray Ghosts. This community is about having fun and not dealing with all the drama that has plagued this place over the past week. I am in agreement with PlasticTonkaToy about all the aspirations. I know that he has been selected as the leader, and I'm completely cool with that. If anything, I am putting my name in to be considered as an assistant leader. My reason is this: I really want this group to prosper and not be shadowed by the past. Plus, just like PlasticTonkaToy, I too have a job, and I'm also a full-time student. It's sometimes difficult to find time to log on everyday and check on how things are going. That's why I think this posse would benefit if there was a second person the posse's members could go to if the leader is unavailable. I'm not trying to steal PlasticTonkaToy's position or throw a coup here, I just really want this posse to prosper, and I'm willing to do anything I can to see that it does. Like I said earlier, I admire that TheMarshal has created this forum so that we may interact with other posses here, and I greatly appreciate this feature and all the work you've done in this community, Marshal. So PlasticTonkaToy, if you'll accept, I'd be glad to assist you with anything you need. You have my full support. I look forward to your leadership  -Mike (MiguelOSU2008) |

I dont care if you guys play with them... Nuahs thinks that he is "wanted" by me when the reality is that he is irrellivant to me. I could really care less what they are doing on their board or in their posse. We have moved on from that. This is about OUR community.

I could really care less what they are doing on their board or in their posse. We have moved on from that. This is about OUR community. I agree. But I don't want to play with Nuahs. To me, a lot of what is over there isn't all too well-organized. Plus, the main thing is that he has isolated everybody over there from the rest of the RDR community. That is why I want to stay. I really like how everything is set up here and I don't want to see anything fall apart. Anyways, all of that drama is irrelevant to this posse now. I'm looking to move forward and progress this group. |

Oh wow, I actually got the position? Awesome. I thank you Marshall for allowing me to have the position and I promise I will try to do my best for the good of the Gray Ghosts. Mike, I will gladly accept your help as I would be stupid to not to. I do hope we can all attend the Meet and Greet tomorrow at 3pm. I'll be hosting a free roam and be sending out invites to all the members online at the time. We can sit, raid gang hideouts, do challenges, etc. We can even go into gang matches and do our best to fight the yankee's and make the south rise again! |

Congratulations plastictonkatoy, and thank you for volunteering for this. From the way you describe yourself it sounds like you will be a good leader, and that is what we need.
I gotta add I am actually quite relieved Nuahs has gone, he seemed very immature and the comments he made when he found out there was a woman in his posse were annoying to say it mildly. I was thinking: geez am I gonna hear these kind of comments when we're online all the time? I joined a mature posse to avoid such comments.
Still waiting for the game so see you sometime next week.

Yeah I noticed the comments too... you wanna know the really strange thing... Faithless followed him over to his new posse. To each their own I guess. But yes, you are right Nuahs turned into the kind of player we are here to avoid so it all worked out for the best and we can all move on now.

With all due respect to all (and I am not trying to trample on the right to an opinion), I think we are giving this stuff far more energy/attention than it deserves (in essence fueling thru continued discussion what we should be smuttering thru silence). The longer it smolders, the longer it will continue to affect this community. If we are truly the big boys (MORE MATURE of the two factions) we say we are, let's show it. Just my 3 cents.
PLASTICTONKATOY, congratz on the promotion, my friend! Let's Ride O' Die, Pa'tna!

agreed... there really is no reason to talk about people who are no longer on this board... focus on what the Gray Ghosts are doing from now on. That is all that matters.
