Congrats to both of you Edit: dumb typo

[quote name='wickedj' timestamp='1300842913' post='2673453'] Under this AA..but lets be real. this is GGA under a new name [/quote] [quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1300843925' post='2673469'] There can't be a GGA under a new name. There is no alliance capable of living up to that legacy. [/quote] Haters are going to hate. Some of the Phoenix Rising members are former GGA members, but former GGA members can be found in alliances all over planet bob. E.g. in VE, Polar, MK and probably a dozen others. Phoenix Rising is not the GGA in 2.0 3.0 or whatever version. A fool is someone who holds onto an unfounded opinion, but for those who wish to depart from the dark ages of ignorance i invite all of you to get to know us. Worst thing that can happen is that you find out you were wrong and emerge a bigger man/woman (in character, not size).

[quote name='Epiphanus' timestamp='1300831187' post='2673330'] Enjoyed making you the biggest loser, Andre Although you put the wrong flag :| [/quote] Give some credit to your teammates it wasn't a one-man effort Anyway, it was a good fight.

[quote name='alyster' timestamp='1300831708' post='2673340'] Happy rebuilding PhR Edit: Why the old MK flag? Did the new one burn in the nuclear firestorm? [/quote] The link i got was not in a valid extension for the CN boards. Minor difference in size now. If someone from MK has the flag in a usable extension i'll edit it in.

[quote name='mrwuss' timestamp='1300280581' post='2666434'] I will be demanding reps from those jerks in doomhouse for my bad collections once this war ends next year. [/quote] Asking for reps from MK and Umbrella? Looking at the GOONS aid screen i get the impression you folks are already living on MK/Umbrella welfare

[quote name='Londo Mollari' timestamp='1300029954' post='2662950'] Were the actions perpetrated by NPO to have taken place in a more physical realm, NPO would most assuredly have been guilty of war crimes and subject to trial and execution of its leadership, and forced change of regime for its people. The old symbols would be outlawed and their display would be counted a hate crime. Those of us who peer through the dimensional portals may know something of this. And yet, here an alliance may reinvent themselves and walk a new path. If we deny this, we condemn ourselves to repeat the history of this place over and over, and we prescribe that we actors shall eternally perform the same play over and over and over again until the actors have grown weary of their lines and the audience has fled the theater of boredom. Whose "crime" is worse? Let go. [/quote] Congratulations on pulling a "Godwin" on the subject. End of topic.

[quote name='Sardonic' timestamp='1299991491' post='2662396'] And therein lies the problem, they should have done it [i]after[/i] the war. Anyone can apologize with a gun at their head. [/quote] And an apology at gunpoint, possibly as a part of a peace agreement would have been more sincere? I am a firm believer in second chances and those start with acknowledging wrongs committed in the past. It doesn't matter if you believe that this is a mere PR stunt or a sincere apology, what matters is that this apology is public. Your reaction shows insincerity because you believe that this could possibly remove one of the alliances which keep GOONS alive through their military support and aid chains. As for me, i am going to watch this development closely to see how it develops.

Congrats on the peace.

I guess this leaves CSN [s]braindead[/s] brainless. Good luck to both.

[quote name='Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz' timestamp='1299361874' post='2653774'] Ex-GGA? [/quote] Only the uninformed still voice this misconception.

[quote name='neneko' timestamp='1299332510' post='2653463'] First of all turn on your sarcasm detector. Second, you're probably in the wrong alliance to make peacemode jokes. I had two targets in my range not in peacemode and from the looks of the battle so far and the fact that they're in defcon 5 I'd say that's due to inactivity. [/quote] So you got lucky. Let's see if that luck continues. As for comment, i make mine towards a person and not an alliance. The comment in question was aimed at someone talking tough while in PM

[quote name='GeoLauzier' timestamp='1299328292' post='2653440'] OMG LOOKS LIEK NSO NEED HALP!!! [/quote] Funny to hear such comments from someone in peace mode

First time against MK in combat. Let's make it a good one.

[quote name='SpacingOutMan' timestamp='1298217166' post='2639492'] Penkala doesn't represent CSN in any fashion, so he can make accusations all he wants up to high heaven and it wouldn't reflect our current standing on the matter. [/quote] That's probably the only positive thing i have seen/heard about CSN in the last few months..

[quote name='rodrod' timestamp='1298036932' post='2637544'] How many Superfriends does it take to screw in a lightbulb? [/quote] More than currently available?

Congratulations GPA. No matter how i personally view neutrality, 5 years is an impressive run.

[quote name='Rafael Nadal' timestamp='1296998057' post='2622029'] Yes, I can. Anything else? [/quote] Yes, i suggest you read the 2nd line of the quote

[quote name='rsoxbronco1' timestamp='1296969804' post='2621395'] Athens and C&G support Doomhouse/FAN aggression... [/quote] And can you still keep a straight face when you say you're better than the old hegemony? Must take a lot of practice to fool yourselves to such an extend. I wonder how long it will take for that attitude to bite you in the rear.

[quote name='Rebounder' timestamp='1296872506' post='2619741'] Also, our primary target at this time is the Coward Coalition 2.0. Enjoy, Duckroll. [/quote] Good luck in reviving the Vox Populi ideas. Duckroll does not deserve this attack on their character though. While i do not think their decision to stay out of the conflict is the correct one in the long run, i can understand that they have had negative experiences with both Orders and those attacking the Orders and their position that they cannot support either. If you can achieve a multi-polar world on planet bob i would welcome that, but the call against DR is ridiculous.

[quote name='NewPoseidon' timestamp='1296111549' post='2605031'] Very disappointing. Many people in the PhR learned long ago that siding with the orders was a mistake. Oh well. Good luck and make sure you don't get dragged into anything with your eyes closed. I'm sure you have the best intentions. [/quote] Phoenix Rising is an alliance which believes in second chances. We judge people and alliances by their actions. This friendship has taken a long time to mature and i for one am proud to call NSO friends and allies. If anything this treaty was delayed far too long because of shadows from the past. In this post karma era it is not the former hegemony which represents the ugly acts of the past. You should ask yourself if you can identify with the actions from your alliance and your side of the web. My conscience is clear, can you make the same claim?

[quote name='Sulmar' timestamp='1296092901' post='2603857'] But this was the thread I was looking for... [/quote] <insert deep voice> no it is not... <end deep voice> I need more practice on that mind control trick.

[center][img]http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x446/NSOPI/banners/TheFireySith.png[/img][/center] Once upon a time as the Sith roamed a newly scorched planet they suddenly saw movement. Pulling out their light sabers and alerting the drones; they walked closer as suddenly a fiery bird emerged from the ashes. Puzzled by the sudden appearance of this mythical creature, the Sith stood still and watched in awe. Although infused by the might of the Dark Side, they could not draw their eyes from this magical sight. Upon seeing the Sith the phoenix took to the skies and continued to watch the Sith. And so time passed. The Phoenix looked at the Sith and saw their desire to plunge the world in darkness and flames. The Sith looked at the Phoenix in amazement that this fiery bird was born from the ashes. As both looked, they drew closer and finally became friends in mutual respect. Today we announce the result of this friendship and respect: [quote][font="Franklin Gothic Medium"][color="#006400"]The Fiery[/color] [color="#8b0000"]Sith[/color] [color="#006400"]Accords[/color]: [i]Mutual Defense Pact[/i][/font] [b]Preamble:[/b] The alliances of the New Sith Order and Phoenix Rising do hereby enter into a union to provide for the mutual defense of one another.

[b]Article 3: Cancellation and Amendments[/b] Should either signatory wish to cancel this Pact, they must provide the other with 72 hour notice, during which the treaty will still be in full effect. Should an amendment or addition be put forward for The Fiery Sith Accords, ratification of the amendment must be approved by both signatories' respective governing bodies.
