Narrative:
We departed dfw and retracted the gear and heard a loud bang in the nose gear area and lost system #1 hydraulic pressure and fluid. We declared an emergency and ran the appropriate checklists. We did not land overweight. We stopped on the runway and waited for maintenance to arrive. While on the maintenance frequency, I told a female our problems and a male got on frequency and told us to taxi off the runway. He insisted that we could even though we could not. I then got the captain on frequency to tell the man we could not taxi. He then realized that we were an F100. The bottom line was the 2 people in maintenance did not communicate and then would not accept my request.
