*The sound of drums emerge from the fog surrounding the Peoples Square of Planet Bob*



* The band plays on….as the PA system comes alive.*

We are all gathered here to discuss those who have suffered unlike any one of our armed forces on Planet Bob.



Those whom – like it or not, have shown they are indeed, the original true soldiers of CN.



And here we stand today, the time has finally come, the years of struggle need to end.
It’s time to set down the shackles. Pacifica and friends needs to take the victory and move on.



*The crowd erupts into a collective chorus singing*

“Bring the Boys Back Home”

[Earogema]

Godspeed boys.

Godspeed.

[Methrage]

It would be nice if Pacifica and allies gave FAN peace for real and let them have another shot at functioning like a normal alliance, I think after holding together for this long they deserve that. If you guys let go of your grudge for FAN maybe they'll do the same for you, sometimes it works both ways like that, you don't need to be eternal enemies.

[Zizka]

At this point keeping them in eternal war is rather pathetic. Time to accept your victory and let them go with an honorable white peace.

[Nintenderek]

Let's give FAN peace.

[Mogar]

FAN has certainly proved your war against them is impossible to win, and impossible for them to lose, as long as they exist they're "winning".

this is true, because it's not like NPO is going to give a crap about public opinion anyway.

I'm under no allusions of anything otherwise, just a free member of the forums speaking ones mind and all.

Not gonna happen, and I doubt FAN wants pity anyway.

[tobiash]

To start with keeping FAN down (or out of the game) showed people what would happen if they whent up against NPO. Now it just shows how sad it is when people cant let go of their grudge.

Giving FAN a honorable white peace, and FAN accepting it as a gesture of goodwill, would show planet bob that honour and not just strength is still a part of the game!

I would love to see this happened.

The lack of activity from FAN members has made them forgotten, at least by me.

But, would love to see them back.

I do not think I will ever keep people forever down just because I can.

This is a game, and I do not think I am that afraid to have FAN grow to be a future challenge.

[jerdge]

Nice OP. Fine, entertaining, "actual"... Thanks.

[ic] I must also add that FAN, to end "the years of struggle", has to seek for peace with the MHA also (stopping acts of war may be a good start). [/ic]

What is this honor you speak of? Remember, there is always two sides to the coin in regards to public image..

[GOONS]

Finish this war and let the past behind and lets start a new.

[HM4A1]

For FAN to be finally given white peace would be a show of unexpected and respectable compassion by NPO. However, it is highly unlikely to happen... Good luck to both.

hey guys I'll start holding my breath right now!

[JayOvfEnnay]

Given that this is, NPO, we're talking of... I don't expect a move that requires respect for the opinion of the public. Nor do I expect any change in this "stomp the bugs" attitude. Being someone who was around during the time that FAN had power, even on their opposite side (if I recall our first big public interafction with anyone was calling FAN a group of hillbillies and getting moved off of yellow) I would pick to have FAN in NPO's place ANY DAY. Atleast with NPO on top we get someone with only size, not skill.

But nevertheless, I'm getting to a rant and I'd rather avoid that for now. FAN were put into this position dishonorably, and NPO won't give them a "no strings attached" peace. It's not in their character (or lack there of) to do so. I just CAN'T see it happening. I don't know, if NPO did do that I'd probably stop attacking, but as it stands I doubt it. Some of FAN likes it better this way, to tell you the truth I don't blame them, being able to say and do anything you like without being under the threat of EZI is great. NPO is afraid of a FAN that isn't peacemode, NPO is afraid what will happen if they let free anyone currently disbanded that would, if remade, grow like wildfire. It all boils down to NPO being frightened of those better than them, and of losing their top spot. What they don't understand is that releasing FAN would get them a large PR boost, and make them... maybe... kind of... not the worst alliance ever to set foot in this game.

So to quote Aros here,

Godspeed boys.

Let FAN go, look at GOONS and Fark.

[atrophis]

Thanks for the support. Be it eternal war or peace at some point. FAN WILL live on.
