(Please be reminded that NCG only releases statements via NCG wall or our blog.)
This is the final and official statement of NCG.
We, the Nosebleed Cosplayers’ Guild, would like to express our sincerest apology to the public, especially to the Cosplay Community if we unintentionally tainted it’s image. This statement would like to discuss certain issues involving our guild and our former members.
For people who don’t know yet, we voluntarily fired all of our members, hopefully for them not to be involved by the issue. We are sad to say that our guild got so big and we admit that there was a lack of “filtering” that we made in the past that came to a point that we can no longer control them.
First we would like to discuss the issue involving US (collectively) to the “Rally” that happened last May 08, 2010 (MOA). False accusations arrived saying that the Administration of NCG planned the said rally. And to clear things out, NO OFFICERS OF NCG commanded our former members to join/organize the rally which we think is very scandalous. Without our command, they joined the said rally and began to march along MOA. Maybe because of the frustration due to long hours of travel and effort, the burst of emotions came out and failed to see the objective. And with these acts of our former members, we are giving our apology to all, especially to our Cosplay Community seniors and co-cosplayers. We take it as our bad, we were not able to handle our responsibility that well.
Another issue that we would like to discuss is the POSER ACCOUNTS ROAMING IN BLOGS. NCG OFFICERS did not post any comments to the hate blogs referring to us. We are trying to seek peace and order by posting our statement thru the NCG wall, note and NCG blog only, not creating hate blogs or reciprocating the negative issues about us. As ONE we hope that bloggers (no one in specific) as online writers learn to be credible with their posts. Credibility is one thing that a writer must possess. We saw several fake accounts saying that they are NCG officers, most of them intended to comment to pull our image down. If we have offended anybody in any form, intentionally or not, we are sorry.
To the bloggers, please do not take this personally,
False posts and libelous contents contribute more damage to local cosplay. It contributes more than a new guild of amateurs who just want to enjoy.
Please give us peace. It is really hard to defend ourselves if we’ve been stereotyped as something bad.
For the issue of us planning to destroy future conventions (TOYCON to be specific), it is absurd.
If you’ll try to investigate more, you’ll see that the image is purely edited (see the tagged people’s spacing area).
Most of us are just beginners, we don’t have any power to do that nor mass members to command. Not to offend, but please guys.. be more analytical. We won’t hammer our own coffins. We enjoyed attending Conventions and we are not crazy to plan something against CONS. And to post name to that kind of fake statement is like hammering nails to own coffin.
To the staff of TOYCON, we are sorry if you got alarmed by the issue, but Black Propagandas are simultaneously appearing against us. With dignity we will say, we did not and will not plan anything against your EVENT. If given a chance, we would like to talk to the staff of the event personally to clarify ourselves if needed.
NOSEBLEED COSPLAYERS’ GUILD MADE SEVERAL MISTAKES IN THE PAST. And we are proud to say that we’ve learn from these mistakes which made us grow. To the people who have been hurt by any of us, again, we are sorry. To the people who pre-judged us, we thank you.
To the people who still believe in us, we would like to thank whole-heartedly. After this post, please stop trash talking in blogs, notes or other people.
Since we already delivered our side, we would like to ask peace from everyone. Our respect and support to the Cosplay scene will still be there. Thank you for letting us join this community in a short time, we really had fun. This is not just about the seniority, but a mutual respect to the people who share the mutual interests with us. Thank you for hearing our side for the very last time. This is our last statement we suppose..
NCG is now on an indefinite leave. We think that filtering the guild will take long, so we raise the white flag before anybody gets involved again.
We wish peace to everyone and may the Good LORD bless and keep us all.
-NCG OFFICERS
Signing off for an indefinite leave. Thank you.
