Yep we made a mistake, and NPO was able to capitalize from it. Good for you guys. To answer your question directly, it wasn't something we were concerned about, jbone has been around for ages. I get on here daily for the most part, I figured if anything happend I could just recreate the AA. Actually the day we lost the AA I saw someone mention it on our forums so I got on CN and tried to recreate the alliance but received an error message.
Also what's the deal with me being banned from your forums? I think I've been reasonably nice with you guys, just look at the last post I made...
