Well, some people. Might as well post the third draft for a war that never happened:

I'm an alcoholic and drunk right now. Where do I sign?

Hey Gurus. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with. I actually tried to go to your forum and post that, but I can't remember my password...so you have my empathy. That said, I hope that whoever set up the AA again lists an AA heir. Finally, I hope you punch anybody in the nose who tries to take advantage of you. Or let me know if you need me to do it, as a favor to people who were steadfast and loyal allies back in my NPL days.

Josh, Nation Strength does not a leader make.

Another round of Rum!!!!

I like this very much.

This didn't take the first time. So get to it. Sharkbait Eddie Chumbucket

If somebody had a pirate contest, we would definitely win.

I'm drinking right now. I don't drink rum until I'm on duty. Edit: Plus the citrus helps keep the scurvy at bay.

Visit us. Check us out. Have a conversation. We like to hang out on IRC in #ppo. Pop in. Say, "hello."

ARRG! Maties, we be having fun and drinking rum. Apply on our forums.

I can tell you from experience how hard this decision must have been. While I didn't know your AA well, you all have my empathy. Good luck.

The Jolly Roger is in the Christmas Spirit. Come on over to PPO, where the rum flows freely. The Pirate's Cove

Our milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. Damn right. It's better than yours. I could teach but I'd have to charge. Damn right, you're a pirate or not. ppo.spickle.com

I found your bridge. Kindly crawl back under it.

I hope the rest of Oculus isn't this obtuse. You see, most of the people who you claim are defending MI6, don't really like MI6. I'm not sad they got rolled. I do find the attitude of Oculus about the rolling to be both sad and pathetic. I'm a political nobody. I have no accomplishments in this world. All I do is piss people off. That said, even a naive nobody like me isn't foolish enough to believe you all can't see the animosity your arrogance has created. I find that, while without the longevity of the MI6 shens that got MI6 rolled, the arrogance of Oculus is so much more ridiculous. edit: made reference to game/changed to world.

Even though they were pre-empted, they still had a choice. They could have thrown in the towel at any point. They took it on the chin, got up, and hit back. Don't take that away from anybody. I'm not actually replying to this quote but to Natan's general attitude in this entire thread. You see, I am one who has often vocalized my distaste for MI6. Hell, while I like most of the members, I tend to despise the AA. They are arrogant; often asinine; and though often humorous, they can be the most base trolls around. At one point, I was a bit tipsy (I know - hard to believe, right?) and made a call out thread about what I felt was classless recruiting. I will also go ahead and take away your counter arguments and acknowledge my faults: apathy (I really don't care about anything you care about), arrogance (I am better than everybody else, no matter what they may think or do), irritable (I'm grumpy), reactionary (I don't tend to start bullshit, but I sure like to call it when I see it). In principle, I was all for an MI6 rolling (I have friends there who I would rather weren't there, but they have made their proverbial beds and need to lie in them). This wasn't a rolling. This was territorial pissings. MI6 is politically isolated and Oculus wanted to show some muscle flexing without any risk. I'm even ok with that. However, Mr. Natan's attitude in this thread has made me sympathize with MI6. Yes. Me. You have made me fucking sympathize with MI6. The world has gone wrong and I can place the blame at the feet of one very loud and rather poor victor, who has become a spokesman for the whole bloc. In this thread alone, he (by association) has proven that Oculus is more than hypocritical. He has done everything the powers within his bloc decided to roll MI6 for doing. The difference is, he has done it all in this thread. I can only assume, he does this in every thread. So, not only has Oculus not really accomplished anything by this war, they have, because of the vocal idiocy of this member (who, while not the whole of Oculus, has taken on the voice of it...even if those in Oculus try the "he is just one member" argument), taken on the exact traits they thought were so despicable in MI6. I have no horse in this race. I don't particularly care for, not really like, any of the AAs involved (though I will say I have always respected STA for the class acts they are). I already told you I am apathetic, so I won't be participating in any action that gets the loudmouthed hypocrites in Oculus rolled. I will however watch from the sideline watching turnabout happen. You all have made MI6 the classy AA in this conflict. It's an accomplishment I thought impossible. Time to cue sarcastic clapping. Congratulations Oculus? You've become the problem for which you pretended to be the solution.

Though I have been vocal in the my opposition to the way MI6 has done business, I'm glad this !@#$show is over. Kudos for Kill, Gibs, and the rest of MI6 for sticking it to them for so long. More kudos to TPF and STA for going into a battle for your friends. Having fought STA several years ago, I am unsurprised their fighters garnered the respect of the opposition.

PPO - we nuke raiders. ppo.spickle.com

It should be noted that as a general principle policy PPO will nuke raiders and order the raider's defensive slots filled, regardless of how a raider, or the raiding alliance, may feel. Edit: you can see the editing of my words above.

Hey, it's not my fault your burliness gets it done for me.

Then clown car couldn't continue their practice of revising history....over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over....
