OK .. take 1 part of people not knowing the whole story, 2 parts of Ketch being to annoyed to articulate himself properly and 3 parts of COAD forum *****s doing their magic and VOILA! .. you get mass threads of pure nonsense springing up all over the place.

Based on the sensitivity of this issue and the fact that discussions are still ongoing with CCP I will not, nor do I feel a need to explain every detail.

What I will say is the following:

1) DAISHO has never condoned or participated in ISK selling. I have never advocated such behavior in my alliance

2) Ketch did not spend any money on ISK nor was there any account sharing/ hijacking in taking place. We simply had a spy in a large entity that was skimming money from a wallet. That is all I will say on the matter.

3) Ketch was a personal friend and we have flown together for years. He has been nothing but a stellar leader in my team and a good friend. He is the one who kept things together through some of our most challenging times and has FC'd fleets around the universe. Most alliances know him and I don't want his contributions trashed by a COAD thread. That man would give the shirt off his back to help his colleagues and he will be dearly missed.

4) This whole endevor has taken quite a toll on a couple of us as we have kept it under wraps for several weeks. There are is a lot of speculation and rumor flying around on the state of Daisho and I am happy to say that we are alive and strong. Our killboards are healthy and our people motivated. In addition we have 2 strong allies at our backs in Geminate consisting of KIA and Goon so no worries there so sorry.. don't expect a BWF firesale any time soon.

5) With Dai on a high and our sov 4 area secured, I would like to announce a change of management. People have known me as Nacona or Darth Sith and I have lived in Fade ,Dek , Period Basis, Fountain and other places but reality is that I have created 2 alliances (Sparta and Daisho) and run them for over 3 years so I am announcing that I am officially standing down and seeing about reintroducing myself to that girl roaming around the house while I play Eve (aka my wife) and my beutiful daughter. I would just like to thank all of the people i have worked with in Eve, you have been my extended family on TS till all hours of the night and I feel privaledged to have been given the opportunity to lead such a great group of guys. I have officially transitioned Daisho to Isaac Orion, a long time friend and one of the pillars of Daisho.
