We are a part of the block that attacked TPF. You may not like us for that. Go right ahead. But as it also must be clear by now, TPF and us didn't see eye to eye politically for a while now. TPF not liking our treaties, and then eventually we not liking one of their treaty. We both put a lot of effort into keeping our treaty despite this differences. And managed for quite some time. But obviously, in the end it broke down. We just do not jive anymore. How they want to navigate the political specter and how we want to are different things at this point. Prior to cancellation of our treaty there were lengthy talks. Efforts were made but they failed. And we both made our moves according to our political visions with pending results.

Ok. It is not couple of months since July of 2009 when 'karma' ended, and the first thing NPO did after is to drop the treaty with TPF and be in a block that attacked it. It is not even couple of months since May 2011 when Doomhouse finished rolling, and the first thing NPO did after is to drop the treaty with TPF and be in a block that attacked it. It is October of 2015. So yeah, many things happened in between. NPO-TPF relations strained due to different political visions. A lot of effort was put into salvaging that thing but eventually it broke. Both sides gave even too much effort into keeping it. No one side can be blamed for not trying. But realities can not be changed. We started to differ. Over the years it became more and more clearer. NPO can not be in a small sandbox with some few we dont have some historical grievance going around ridding some imaginary moral high ground. That is not us. TPF is free to feel and do whatever they want. But lets not lose all perspective here. Like we didn't have our problems over the years. Gave our best to fix it for as long as we held a treaty, which was fair amount of time, but eventually it all added up to too much. Final moves prior to this event both sides did knowingly of consequences. TPF had to know what allying MI6 entailed, NPO had to know what becoming member of Oculus entailed.

Thank you Ogaden. It's not a proper war without your stats
-
Second that. RI5 kicks ass, as does Ogaden for powering it the last wars
-
Well, that is good then. Because obviously you are just going to get pats on the back and phony smiles if help is what you'll need.
-
Well, people could always help out Monster Inc instead of making smart ass comments.
-
Jesse End is just shy in praise. :P
-
Well, thank you. We try. Results vary, but usually we manage good.
-
Have fun. Also thanks for considering us the head of Oculus, lol, that is some high praise there. I appreciate the sentiment.

I know you are upset, you need to vent, put words together, etc. But guy, did you really just thought of scaring me with such threats? You do know I, and NPO, have been there done that? Have the t-shirt. We will do it all over again if it comes to this. Such words do not move me. Don't worry about it.
-
You seem upset about it. So it worked on you.
-
Hey man, as said, you are free to spin that however it best suits your agenda. It's not like I can stop you. I know how it is to get rolled all too well. You gotta do what you gotta do. I am just glad something is happening and shaking. It is key to keep people invested.

Late to the party. First to say, THANK Admin finally some drama, controversy, emotions, events, actions, life on the OWF. This place looked completely dead and it wasn't good. Now in regards to the events themselves. Obviously most of us OWF active are grizzled veterans, know the song and dance. People will be forcing their agendas, posting likewise. And guess what-- me too :D But for some genuinely confused about the NPO-TPF relationship and what happened. Well, in effect and I believe TPF members would agree-- we politically diverged in vision, path and style to the point we became incompatible. Even from this thread we can glean that it was something going on for years. Since the NG treaty. The path NPO went on, TPF didn't fallowed, or vice versa the path TPF set for it self NPO didn't shared. I respect all the effort that people put on both sides to make that treaty last as long as it did, but actually both sides were best served if it was canceled long before it was. Now, NPO is a part of the block that hit TPF as a part of a war on MI6. TPF understandably upset, many within NPO also sad at that turn of events. Everybody is free to form their opinion on the matter. I wont argue whatever position you have taken. Personally I am sad at the turn of events, but NPO has its obligations now and as said we and TPF do not jive anymore politically. It is what it is you take what you want from it. Certainly NPO is a sitting duck for propaganda attacks now from various sources. And on that matter, shout out to the sole TOP poster up in here, glad there is some life in TOP left. :D See, this is what we need more, controversy. Brings life back even from lifeless wastelands.

I accept your capitulation then. Anyone else?
-
Wow. Really poor attempts at zingers on the expense of this block. Shame really. Didn't even manage to chuckle. Also only six pages. I think its time to roll everybody and then turn the lights off.
-
Didn't think that NPO would become a part of a block again, let alone a block of this magnitude. I think its GG time

The tide has turned- creation of the World Unity Treaty

What the actual fuck? -
GOONS achieves total victory
Branimir replied to ComradeMilton's topic in Alliance Announcements (IC)
Congrats on your victory. Also goodbye. -
You don't get to dictate NeCoHo's Black Crusade. SANITY IS FOR THE WEAK

That is of course, blatantly not correct. Founding members of NPO's branch into Bob were: Karpathos · RedCommunist · Ivan Moldavi · Koona · TrotskysRevenge · Vladimir · Iosef · LordValentine · Dilber They held a poll for the first Emperor- Ivan Moldavi won. Though, he wasn't a single founder. NpO was created by NPO-- its Imperial staff. Again, there was no single person founder. At the time Ivan Moldavi was the emperor of NPO, though that again doesn't make him a single creator. The only alliance that Ivan actually created was NSO. Anything other on that matter, is false history.

Funny you would say that. There is always a storm brewing over the horizon. If you believe you got a glimpse of it, great. Its just that when you came here to share something, it really just kinda ended up being ramblings. You wanted to say something but then didn't really, because you supposedly wanted to honor some confidence but then didn't entirely. It just ended up being about NPO this and that. Currently, we have all important and major political players entangled into a wide web. They all allied each other directly or by some proxy trying to give themselves most favorable positions. With the last global war being so decisive (TOP imploding, some on the losing side jumping ship, the rest just existing with only MI6 trying to make something out of their alliance) some dynamics is gone currently and we are in a lull. Great time for speculations to pass the time. Imagined or real intrigue. This web of players is huge, varied actors and obviously we all expect and hope something eventually pops up and things get real interesting again. It will, it has to, we aren't going to hold hands and sing fucking kumbaya until Bob ends. But it is truly not possible to really predict where things might land. So many factors in play. I see you wanted to add some flavor here, but you didn't really add much. Except NPO this, NPO that, MI6/NpO getting rolled. I like when we are put in front and center. And yeah, we fucking rock for putting ourselves in a strong position again (what about that Letum's 'emperorship', pretty good ey). But we learned some lessons, believing in hype is bad for example. We aren't all that in the web, nobody truly is.
-
Perish the thought! Anyway, the title wasn't misleading I'll give you that. Truly as you said, some ramblings out of frustration and I'll add- impotence. NPO's position a bit exaggerated (as Letum already stated), NpO's position a bit exaggerated as well ('King Maker'? Thats a bold statement). But I am glad you are thinking of us.
-
Wait, what happened to all the pleasing? We got all pleased up in this thread, I was just to get us a room.
-
Please, do not give us so much credit. It is indeed you with no help from others, that are cutting your way. Certainly, you are going places.
-
Well, in that case I have made an effort to take a second glance at posts made and can tell you-- they please me. I hope you continue on your path and I am sure you got the attention you wanted-- which pleases me. Let no one say, you are not a group without a keen and wise sense.
