Tibus Heth is remembered by some as a hero, but those that served with him tell a different story. Members of the State military responded negatively to a poll conducted by HHC, with one saying that:
"Heth was the worst leader the State has ever had. The idea of an executor might be a good one, but Heth was not the right person for the job. I would not have followed Heth to the dessert buffet."
Now that Heth is dead and time has elapsed, members of the State can take a more nuanced look at his disastrous rule. It is widely agreed that the best thing Heth did in his time as executor was die.

Yeah, this thread is definitely going to go places, and none of them good.

If I weren't going to sleep, I'd probably go make some popcorn.

Heth was a criminal and a disgrace to the Caldari name. The only reason I stayed on under him and did not join up with Mordu's Legion at the time was my devotion to my fellow soldiers.

Some call me insane. If the universe is sane, then I embrace that label.

The better alternative, rather than leaving the State in need for the greener pastures of Mordu's Legion, would have been to rise with your brothers and sisters against him. Plenty of people all over the State were already doing so, myself included. My devotion is to all the people of the State, not only those who are soldiers. So maybe that's why I chose to stick it through rather than resist the urge to abandon them for soldiers of another faction. To each their own, I suppose.

You'll find a lengthy discussion here.

As I said before: Heth's early rise was heroic, laudable, and brought glory to the State. His fall was tragic, and wholly his own doing.

Must we speak ill of the dead?

Heth-haan did some amazing acts, and I believe he should be called a hero for them, even raised as an example for future generations.

Executor Heth also tore the state apart and did his all to embroiled us in a meaningless war against the Gallente when he could have been trying to rebuild the ties of centuries. He raised a culture of hate and mistrust and abused the Caldari spirit. For this, he was and is found condemned. There is no more to be said.

Is there any honor in throwing mud at graves?

Trying to force change upon the State that went against the vision our ancestors had is something that may be forgivable. However, Heth forfeited all right to be labeled as a hero and a Caldari when soldiers acting under his command terrorized and killed countless State citizens who spoke out against him and his regime. He is no hero. He is no Caldari. Stop saying so. Let his memory rot with the rest of his putrid legacy.

I would like to take this moment to note that Parious Mehoff is a known cheat and liar.

The over/under for this sort of thread is six hours--with myself taking the over--on the issue of the crazy Provist posting her vitriolic response.

Of course, I will retract my statement when and if I am paid.

Hey now, hey now. At least let him have six hours after the six hours. We're still early in his shift cycle for the day, and I have him reviewing a pile of documents.

You, madam ARC director, are a sadist.

The problem isn't that my employer gave me paperwork to file, it is that in this age of high tech holographic displays, Ms. Priano gave me paperwork on... well... paper.

Alizabeth, I have transferred 10 isk to your account as per our arrangement, but I do feel we need to talk about the specifics of future bets at some point.

You're just jealous that I am getting so rich off this!
Also, Parious is not a cheat and a liar.

I am greatly disappointed, that my brilliant treatise on whether Tibus Heth was a great Caldari hero, or the greatest Caldari hero, is described so prosaically as "lengthy".

On the merits of paper, which are manifold;

In the first case, there is nothing so chilling to someone seeking to engage in unwanted administerrata as "in triplicate." Arbitrary paperwork can test the dedication of those who are emotional but unmotivated.

In the second case, paper present on a desk is not so easily ignored as an evemail forgotten or a file in the wrong directory.

In the third case, it's not like I handed you a stack of paper. Actually, they're paper-like sheets of computing medium, which digitize and translate written or typed text into proper documents on the fly. This is why you sometimes look back at a sheet and find new notes you hadn't seen before. Apologies, I made them via my terminal.

That, and we can't have interns without filing, can we?

The often lauded as heroic acts at the armour forge never cease to amaze me.
Not for the fact that they worked, but for how staged the whole affair appeared.

Had the home guard been competent on that day, given that there were snipers and heavy ordnance on site, they may have temporarily made a martyr out of him, though once his dragonaur allegiance became public knowledge, his support would likely have waned.
They would have saved the Caldari people a lot of grief in the process however.

I remain certain that without Heth's rise and aggression, Caldari Prime would still have, sooner or later, been transferred back to at least it's current partial Caldari control, without the need for a titan sized crater in the surface.

It is also worth noting, that Malkalen would likely not have happened without Heth's rise to power, as there would not have had to be such a hastily arranged and visible process had it not been in response to the public call to arms made by heth at the time.

Interns! That's what I am missing in my life: Ni-Kunni interns.
I'll need several. Maybe even a couple of dozen. I'm Lady Newelle's Director of Security and Director of Propaganda. So, I'll need four each there. I'll need another four to assist with my ARC related duties. My reports won't proof read themselves. I'll need another four to assist me as the Evocatus of SFRIM. That's sixteen. I'll add another eight just to handle my ship related paperwork. Someone has to make sure they are properly cleaned. Every. Single. Day. (Unlike Minmatar ships, it's very easy to tell when Amarrian gold is dirty.) So, two dozen. I'll start putting help wanted ads up on Mishi.
