As you all know, our leader, and good friend on mine, EBGNess, was forced to leave the club due to personal reasons. I, Bear, have stepped in to make sure that the club stays up to its usual standards of high-quality family entertainment. I've been the president of the number one rated clubs, the "DESERT MONKEYS" and "EarthBound World", and an officer in countless others. I'm not going to make this a long, dragged out speech, so I'd just like to say hello to all of our new members, and thanks to all of our loyal longtime members who have stayed true during these trying times. Thank you all very, very much.
~ Bear
_.-=-· Ranks ·-=-._
Due to the fact that SPAMMERS have been using our ranks to create SPAM lists, the ranks (with the exception of Leaders, Apple Kids, and AoEs) will no longer be published in the newsletter. Does this mean no ranks? NO WAY! We will still have ranks, and they will function the same way as they always have, but they will soon be on a password protected website (which all members will have access to). And if you don't have access to the web, just E-mail me and I will E-mail you with your rank standings.
_.-=-· Jobs ·-=-._
Due to the recent turmoil within the club, jobs have been reset. I am very sorry about this. But if you would like a job, please read the description, and then click on APPLY next to the job you want, and I will send you an application. Thank you very much.

Below is a special article from EBGNess, former leader of the EarthBound Gang. Please read.
Dear Members:
This is my final article.. And I will just post with what I said on the message board with this final little message added. "DO NOT TAKE ME SERIOUSLY ANY LONGER. I AM SCHIZOPHRENIC.. I CAN'T THINK RATIONALLY ALL THE TIME ANYMORE.. WHAT I SAY OR DO AT SOME POINTS NOW IS BEYOND MY CONTROL." Breaks my heart to say that.. Oh well.
Here is the post:
Well guys, this is my final post.. I guess I will give you the good word and the bad stuff that is going on.
My mother is doing great in critical condition in the hospital.. By all the lies told in the last week.. with all the honor I have left.. This is indeed true. My mother is on the support machine.. I guess we are going heart transplant.
As for the toll of lies that were told.. well, I'll confess... Some of the things I did say were twisted around. And Bearbear should admit to that too.. My lie was this: I did indeed give the OK for Bearbear to lead the club in my absence, and I did indeed say that I would call AOL and give him leadership powers. My only backing was this.. I wasn't going to call AOL until he had good ground leadership.. But that is that.
I guess I will be leaving the EarthBound Community permanently. I really have no reason to stay here and watch the ages of empire fall apart. The meeting Wednesday was a great leaderless meeting, and it doesn't look as if a newsletter will be coming out tonight. But what is to say? I have no leadership influence here anymore.. Amazing on how the world turns on you though.. Mother is near dead.. Leaving this community, and I have been labeld as
having the rare disorder called Schizophrenia. (Neat spelling word.) Yes, I have been in a bitchy mood because all hell is dropping on me.
Well, enough about complaining about myself.. I just want to say goodbye as this will be my final post to the club as we know it. If you know any better and at all would like to help this club to succeed.. Just help the damn leader.. Whoever it will be tomarrow, and in a week and so forth... and if he sucks.. oust him.
The club has givin me 2.4 great years. Through the fun of Matingly22, and Onettness, With the leadership of SectorX19 and Nikolai64. The Jenova Project, The EBUN, The leading of this club, the greatness of the sharks, the Fall of the sharks, the Greatness of the EBGang.. The fall of the EBGang. This place has been like a bible in the making. The Sharks being the Old Testiment, and the EarthBound Gang being the new testiment. With the fun of the
all night meetings, the late night meetings, the wrestling shows, the attempt to rid of and finally making friends with the RPE clan.. the fight with ANT, the whole Big Show BrianDX clan.... ::Thinks:: The AON.. (Which I just barely caught a glimps of). All 52 different clubs, the little EB Journal, the merge with Earthbound.net. The stories of SectorX19, The stories of Ebounding and Moondoggey. The fun with YO YO YO Cheesy.
If I am about to be tainted with this darn little argument and let all that I have listed above go to waste... well. I have to be crazy then. I leave here only with the good memories and the good fun. Of course, I have finally been stabbed in the back, as I had so much done when I first came here.
The EarthBound Community is such a complicated system in which everyone things they have a graple on it.. and they don't. Its amazing... You're the top of the chain and you get killed. The EBC is like the wilderness.. With all the Greed, The Good times, The Mafia Clans, and everything. The Covert Operations we had and the little sneak attacks that would be great. I loved planning for something big all the time that we would never end up doing.
Even though the last week that I have gone through has sucked.. I thank god for every fucking second I had with you guys. Even as I speak now.. I got 3 people asking me to come back and one telling me how much I suck.
I would make a favorite list of who I all like and who I all hate.. but I know for sure I would leave people out of both the list that would cause some arguments and so forth. So, I just say thanks for the great time everyone.
Finally.. Now that I am out.. I see it. Get rid of the damn politics. Enjoy life as it is, and look outside and see the sun once in a while. Have your mom turn you toward the sun and water you so you grow if you are on a lot. Get out and get a life and get away from that damn radiation emitting machine you have now. Because I once was a preppy rich boy with everything and now I am losing it all, including my mind... But do not feel sorry for
me, Feel sorry for yourself.. and fix the problem.
I end now with a final mystery phrase that NO ONE will probably ever decode.. even though it sums everything up I just said.

Thanks for Reading, Criticize it at will.
