First off, Scarab has one of the highest RP requirements. I'd say it's standards are even higher than Sylvan's (which are very high).
Secondly, have you taken the time to think about what you're writing? Sylvans hate Scarab mainly because they think of evil as a corruption of sorts, and probably also because a lich guards our temple, Empire happens to be "profane" because it's beliefs conflict with Scarabaeus', and cultists, being religious fanatics are stubborn, overzealous people for the most part. Just because they are anti-empire doesn't mean that they are an automatic failure. Regarding "the Voice is never around", Draktha will be back soon, her player just had some difficulties finding a computer, so I hear.
About Scarabaeus doing "jack shit", that is one of the most ignorant statements I've heard all night. The fact that he doesn't speak to the Cultists all the time casually makes all of his appearances more impressive and important. He's also working on finishing the cult's powers probably. Lay off posting stuff about how you think that the cabal's a stupid idea until you find stuff out about it In Character.
(Wasn't planning on responding to this at all at first, but it turned into a rant... *shrug*)
