This is not the old XWF. It is not the XWF that Jon Brown ran, that I ran, that Fuzz ran, that Shank ran, that ran... it's a new federation that has evolved from one that we've all loved and all hated at various times, and one that's really only a couple of months into it's run since the change in management. There have been a lot of things we identified as problems that were fixed. There are several things we're in the process of fixing and experimenting with. There are likely problems we haven't even recognized or looked at yet. All of it can be addressed and discussed civilly, but anonymous flaming doesn't help especially when it's not as anonymous as you think it is. There's really only two or three people I think you can be, I'm pretty sure I know, and if I'm right it kind of breaks my heart.

I'm sorry that excoboard shut down nearly 10 years ago and our old forums were lost. I'm sorry you think two or three RP's in two weeks is holding down people that have a life. I'm sorry that you want to criticise a roster that we are actively trying to improve, bulk up, and include people like you in just because it doesn't measure up to an imaginary standard that you're holding of the past. We had years where our roster was stacked, absolutely. We had times where Robert Main would have been a top 10 guy fighting for a top spot with the rest of us. We also had times where Barney Green and Chasm were fighting for a World title, or the entire roster was patchwork people coming in for two or three weeks at a time and no established main eventers. I'm sorry you disagree with the outcome of Page/Main. If it helps, not every member of the staff or every member of the roster agrees with the outcome either... but that's the game. Some matches are close, and the fact that this was "Main's first real challenge" is a sign that things are heading in the right direction and the roster is getting healthier. The fact that Lux is lined up in the wings is excellent. The fact that guys like Santos and Centurion and Fuzz and Tommy Wish are all putting up some of the best work they have in months and reaching that level again is great. Ned and Big D and Lacklan are fantastic "rookies" that all continue to develop and climb the ladder.

The biggest difference in CCP/Main and a high level Uni match of the past is that nobody was immature enough to rage quit, or decide to start a flame war... except you. We spoke about things behind the scenes, privately and in groups, and reached understanding if not agreement and have continued to develop the angle into one of the best the XWF has seen recently as we intended to, like mature adults.

This staff is trying.

They did not have to acknowledge our past, or embrace some of the incoming talents like they have. They did not have to invite me back, or give me back the angelfire webshell of our old shows, or open the doors.

If you can't acknowledge any of that and speak to us about further concerns like the mature adult we know you consider yourself, I really don't know what to say.
