bagpuss Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Back when we were squishing little rubber duckies with our big manboots of justice, those NEXUS pimps at the 57th Overlanders ignored good manners and showed up to the party with a +1, The Federation. All in all, good times were had. Battles were fought, blood was spilled, nations glow'd, and one massive bar tab rung up. NB Bagpuss is NOT paying this bill alone So with the merger of OTF and LEN to form Silence we all realised that Nexus works well with 4 allies. Thus it is with great pleasure that I am proud to welcome The Federation into the Nexus lovefest, erm sorry Nexus Gang. PreambleThe signitories of this document come together in order to recognise a common friendship and commitment to one another. In signing this agreement, signatories affirm unquestionable support for fellow members and endeavour to sustain this united front and act with the ambition of achieving common security and prosperity. Sovereignty The undersigned respect the leadership and sovereign rights of their fellow signatories and shall make no attempt to subvert or undermine the leadership of any other member. Each alliance has the right to freely make their own decisions in regards to allies and treaties, providing no prospective treaty partner has been cited as an enemy of a fellow signatory. Non-Aggression Members states of the undersigned will abstain from engaging in any aggressive actions against each other, where such actions may include declarations of war, military operations, acts of espionage, or any other infliction of harm by proxy. Signatories will treat each other with respect at all times, in public and private channels, and will refrain from publicly disrespecting or criticising one another. The said parties are encouraged to resolve any outstanding issues with one another through appropriate private channels. Assistance The undersigned alliances agree to provide financial assistance, within their best capacity, to one another if any formal request or desire is expressed by another signatory. Member alliances are entitled to provide military and financial aid during times of war and each signatory affirms their diplomatic support to one another if requested. Intelligence All signatory alliances shall demonstrate a willful and coordinated effort in gathering intelligence about the greater political climate, along with any information relating directly to the undersigned. Signatories are required to relay any information relevant to the security of fellow members through the appropriate channels, as soon as practically possible, without further endangering the concerned parties. Mutual Defence Any aggressive attack or declaration of war on a member or members will be considered, in essence, as an act of war against all signatories of this agreement. In such a scenario, signatories agree to respond with full military capabilities in order to effectively defend the attacked party, without hesitation. Any request for lesser assistance, be it of military, economic or diplomatic qualification, will also be considered obligatory and responded to with aptness. Mutual Aggression The undersigned have the right to provide assistance and support for fellow signatories when undertaking aggressive actions. Any intent to initiate aggressive actions against an outside party must be presented to fellow signatories seventy-two (72) hours before any action is taken, in which time signatories will discuss the appropriate supportive actions. Should a request for military assistance be refused under these circumstances, it will not affect the ongoing relationship between signatory parties. Terms of War The undersigned alliances consent to a strictly 'no nuclear first strike' policy in both offensive and defensive wars. Signatories also recognise that the conditions of an aggressive war apply specifically to states containing a minimum of ten (10) nations or holding a defensive pact with another external alliance, and does not apply to raiding or nations designated Zero Infrastructure targets by any signatory of this agreement. Furthermore, terms of peace and surrender issued during defensive and aggressive wars would require unanimous (100%) approval by current signatories. Membership In signing this treaty, members recognise that any breach of this agreement may be considered plausible grounds for the removal of a signatory. Member states also acknowledge that this agreement will overrule all previous treaties held between signatories and by default will not interact with the external treaties held by signatories, unless otherwise Agreed upon. New alliances may also be invited to sign this covenant following collective approval (100%) by the current members. Amendments Amendments of this document may be proposed at any time, by any signatory alliance. In order for a proposition to be considered successful it will require a unanimous vote (100%) by all signatories. Cancellation A signatory may resign their status by providing notification to the other members of this agreement, after which they will be bound by the terms of this pact for a further ninety-six (96) hours. The undersigned alliances have the right to propose the removal of another signatory at any time, after which they will have a seventy-two (72) hour time frame to discuss and vote on the cancellation of the concerned membership. It will require a unanimous vote of the undisputed signatories (100% - 1) in order to successfully remove a fellow signatory. Signed This agreement has been ratified by the following alliances on the 18th day of July, 2009.

The FSM Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I was going to insert a witty and humorous insult about my good buddies in NEXUS but I cant seem to come up with one at the moment. I'll just congratulate you instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfg4ng Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) I'm just commenting on the OP, Nexus brought it up.

Could've just said you fought together in the karma war didn't have to flaunt the fact that it was 5 alliances "squishing" RDD on an already overwhelmed front, just saying Exactly JJ. Although I must say that the White Peace offered to RDD was generous. I was unaware, however, that said generosity would extend to making comments about my alliance months after the fact.

Poyplemonkeys Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Yeah, 'squishing rubber duckies with our big manboots of justice' just strikes you as being so damn serious. It's just an introduction and explanation about how the relationship between Nexus signatories and The Federation came about. Should probably either get thicker skins or read less of the forums. Feel free to point out NSO's huge military trimuphs though JJ, given how you seem to be enjoying mocking others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As JJ stated saying you fought alongside one another in Karma would have been sufficient.

Solidus117 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I remember when a certain individual poured his heart and soul into creating Nexus, only for it to turn on him. I remember collecting information from a Nexus signatory which lead credence to it supporting a political coup of a (former? so long ago..) signatory. I guess what I'm saying is the Nexus is a two-bit bloc of microalliances which couldn't fight it's way out of a paper bag, and has less stature than a Mexican wrestling midget. Oh yeah. Hail.

Veneke Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Amazing Solidus, you've managed to make a completely irrelevant reference to the NEXUS of quite a spell back. Congratulations. Tell me, did you have nothing better to do today than to dig up some old history that, you admit yourself, could well have no relevance at all to the NEXUS of today? Also, The Independent State of Militaria is a microalliance. None of NEXUS's alliances are. And, I'll have you know that paper bags float swiftly away from us, paper handles between their bag. JJ... brilliant political move there mate. That was a genius piece of work. Please, carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
