Once PI was settled as an official club, Archaic wrote up the Pact of Pallet, which was a treaty between the two clubs saying that no member of either club would flame a member of the other club over Shipping, and that members of neither club would post in topics that were designated as being for the other club. Archaic said that both clubs should hold a vote as to whether to accept the pact.
The PalletShippers were hesitant about signing the Pact, and Archaic had suddenly decided that the whole Pact thing wasn't such a good idea after all- he wouldn't reveal his reasons at the time, but later it turned out that he figured that if the clubs weren't fighting with each other, things would get boring and the clubs would die off since they wouldn't have any rival to be striving against. But, when the voting was held on UPN, the majority of both OPS and PI members voted to pass the Pact, so Archaic and Chaos signed it. Tea signed it too for some reason, even though he wasn't supposed to. United EgoShippers was invited to be a part of the Pact, but Loren declined.
It was pretty soon after that that Tea resigned from his position as one of the leaders of MLC- it had to do with a few things, one of them being that he wasn't much into the Pokémon anime anymore, and another being the rivalry between the MLC and ::TR::, which was a Team Rocket club. Soon after Tea resigned, another one of the MLC leaders, ajnrules, resigned too, saying that Misty had become a ditz in the Orange league and he didn't like her anymore. That left only one leader for MLC, h-jack, and he wasn't too much into the Pokémon anime anymore either, so the club quickly died off. Sometime during all this, the president of OPS, Ben, resigned and said he had to leave the boards because his real life was getting busy and he didn't have the time anymore. Archaic was basically forced into the presidency, and Para (Parastoise) became vice president
