More stats to fall to Legion again.

[quote name='Baldr' timestamp='1350843134' post='3043715'] I'm sure if GOONS agrees to pay reps, Doornail will be glad to let them go. After all, GOONS are the ones that attacked another alliance and started all of this. [/quote] This would help if they were a recognized alliance, but anyone can slap an AA on their nation and have a couple of their friends join then call it an alliance. It just isn't so. Even some of the last neutrals got protection before getting strong enough to defend themselves. They just aren't a real alliance.

I like how everyone is getting up in arms over this. Lets face the fact, GOONS raid a lot of people. Some of them get put onto EoG's lists when they attack back as per standard GOONS protocol. Many of them just do the mercy boards and get off fairly quickly and easily. No one hears about these stories. One retard on the OWF starts whining about it and everyone gets up in arms over it. Hell Sardonic was even willing to talk to this person on IRC to resolve it so he didn't have to go to the mercy board. GOONS are not unreasonable. This is being made into a bigger deal than it really is. If someone attacked any alliance, any real alliance wouldn't let that person go until they paid some kind of reps. GOONS offers a way so people don't have to pay reps. The Mercy Boards are only as terrible as you make them. You can have lots of fun doing Mercy Board terms. This seems to be more an attack on Tech Raiding and you are targeting GOONS when many alliances allow Tech Raiding. It's fun for smaller nations, and eats up the boredom of initial nation building so they can take part of the greater political element that many of us take part in. So quit your crying and get over it.

Why are any of you even trying to bother arguing with these people? It's obviously not going anywhere.

[quote name='Sardonic' timestamp='1350524364' post='3042326'] How about no? People don't outlast GOONS. Except Ruk, I suppose. If you wish his freedom, you're going to have to pony up 2400 tech for it. [/quote] RUKUNU is eternal. When GOONS are long gone, RUKUNU will still be here, for he is the one true EoG.

[quote name='mattski133' timestamp='1350336539' post='3041682'] Maybe it "should", maybe but it certainly "doesn't". Any raiding alliance in the world would have raided these guys, and probably DoorNail too if they knew what his WC was like. Some people think it's sad when a lion takes down a gazelle calf, or when a bulldozer clears room for a shopping mall, but in reality it's a small percentage of pacifists chained to a tree or occasionally militant protestors that show up to cry about it, and hardly the rest of the world. [/quote] Predatory animals tend to kill the weak, the sick, and the old. It allows for the herd/species to become stronger and weans out the weaknesses.

This alliance is about as cool as these people. ModEdit: RL pic removed.

[quote name='Nintenderek' timestamp='1350201326' post='3041271'] No no, I think they have this one right Fox. We should take a lesson out of their book and from now on,anything said by a member of GOONS can not be taken seriously. It's the exact same logic, so clearly it's good logic. [/quote] If by saying that you cannot take GOONS seriously, how can you possible see it as good logic?

[quote name='hapapants' timestamp='1350172840' post='3041194'] I invite you to make a coherent argument about why players have an implied right to the protection of their pixels. [/quote] I invite you to make a coherent argument about why players have an implied right to destroy others pixels. See what I did there?

You will be missed Tetris. The game is losing a cool alliance with your passing. I will always hold the fond memories of the fun we had together.

[quote name='Emperor Marx' timestamp='1350018543' post='3040419'] That isn't what SirWilliam said at all and you know it. This shouldn't even be an issue. We choose not to recognize an alliance under a certain membercount and if they lack formal protection or ties to another alliance. We have never stated or pretended that our guidelines are universal. The theme is however universally held in other raiding alliances who also define an alliance by a certain membercount and/or political connections. [/quote] The Combine has a similar Raiding Policy in place.

[quote name='DoorNail' timestamp='1350016812' post='3040397'] your reading comprehension needs some work, obviously they cannot go to peace mode after being attacked..why would an order of peace mode go out for the entire alliance to go into peace mode? you can't explain your way out of this, you've botched any kind of honorable moves since the beginning. when are you going to let us loose from war? [/quote] Go to the GOONS forum and ask for peace and they will give you terms, it really isn't that hard.

[quote name='SirWilliam' timestamp='1350015579' post='3040387'] BloodFury, I think he thinks you're a Goon... [/quote] We are all GOONS, just trying to make our way along the cold dark long forgotten road that was once The Unjust Path.

[quote name='DoorNail' timestamp='1350015424' post='3040384'] no our guys were ordered to not retaliate in a mass PM, we always give diplomacy a chance first. do you need proof of that PM message? [/quote] Then why are you fighting if everyone was supposed to go to peace mode? It isn't that difficult to achieve peace with GOONS, the longer you fight, the worse it is for you.

[quote name='DoorNail' timestamp='1350014028' post='3040358'] could have fooled me, some might say, he was helping to dig your grave. what do you have against us for holding us at war for nearly 3 weeks again? If you mentioned it, I may have forgotten. [/quote] Dig my own grave? Only I can dig my own grave. What does GOONS have against you? Did you fight back during the tech raid? If so then they are just doing standard procedure that most tech raiding alliances do at this point, which is to keep attacking you.

[quote name='DoorNail' timestamp='1350012652' post='3040343'] that's a more polite way around it, we can't be going around hurting peoples feelings now, right? [/quote] I don't think you are intellectually capable of hurting someones feelings. Don't ever underestimate SirWilliam's intelligence.

[quote name='DoorNail' timestamp='1350003924' post='3040281'] Can we get some smarter GOONS out here to try and pretend that you all didn't drop the ball in your your attempts to destroy all new alliances? Thanks [/quote] Did you seriously just call SirWilliam stupid?

Better than Deinos.

Best of luck with this move NSO.

[quote name='Rotavele' timestamp='1349766898' post='3038963'] Death to Starfox. [/quote] This is something I can get behind.

[quote name='Rayvon' timestamp='1349750252' post='3038860'] Good luck, Combine. [/quote] And it was as if it was all just dust in the wind.

What a terrible alliance, just disband already.

What an ugly flag.

[quote name='Ronjoy Sholokhov' timestamp='1349405112' post='3037495'] I think you still do not know what GPF has in store comrade! [/quote] Yes we do. It's something any intelligent person wouldn't join.

[quote name='Ardus' timestamp='1349140239' post='3036426'] embassy here I come! [/quote] Lets just skip the formalities and I can just mask you as a government member so you can get straight to the string pulling and turn us into a proper puppet. [quote name='Merrie Melodies' timestamp='1349140422' post='3036427'] Maybe I better join tC so SF101 wouldn't feel lonely in his dislikes. [/quote] This would be acceptable and encouraged.
