As someone watching from the side lines, I can see this from both sides but I see IRG is more right then Ven, Nyx or even you Kalh. If Erzie did leave without telling his faction, thats his own fault and on his head alone, so they are well within their rights to vote if he told them absolutely nothing. The problem is, it appears he only told Aux members, rather then IRG, so this is not only in his hands, as Nyx and Vendetta said in earlier posts, Erzie told them he was leaving for whatever amount of time. However on the flip side, his faction, was told nothing and left in the dark.
Needless to say, viewing this from a 3rd party. Neither IRG's members, nor Nyx, Ven or Kalh are right in their places. Yes its a dick move to vote him out, however at the same time, IRG was told nothing about the subject. All in all, I can understand the admins giving it a month to see how things go before they do anything about it.
Facing two facts here, its not right to force IRG's members to do anything if your not in the faction. As IRG made clear, their moving his char from the faction, not stopping his RP, I double checked to make sure and understand what he meant, and that would not ruin anyone's RP with Erzie. Yet I will back lash IRG at least, to remain neutral as I can. To IRG, you should of asked around before pulling the 'voting' out, thats my personal opinion. Its clear Ven, Nyx (and maybe Kalh?) knew about Erzie leaving for a break, so rather then doing the voting, perhaps you could of asked around first off? To the others. Yes, they were wrong, however you don't need to go biting the head off before anything happens. Nyx was kind enough to give a second life, and they didn't even stop or ruin his RP at that.
From both sides, and I will say this, were wrong in what they did. One being IRG, you should of held off the voting and asked around, and other side, you should of held off the hate and bitterness TILL you told them in a more calm matter what the situation is.
Knowing Erzies position and why he most likely left, I say its respectful to give a month (idk how long he'll be away personally) to see where things go. However I personally, as the 3rd party person at least, like to ask @Vendetta or @"Auzari" to provide some details here so we can at least know fully what happened to Erzie (I can make a shot in the dark guess, but its only a guess..) so at least all parties know please.
I'm not blaming anyone wrong, but the matter this situation was handled in could of been a lot better from both sides...thats just my point of view anyways
