Seriously, what is the point in making people think your more retarded than you already are. Its like bob suicide [/quote] *Echelon, *You're, *It's, *suicide[b].[/b] [quote name='daggarz' date='10 March 2010 - 01:36 AM' timestamp='1268214136' post='2220801'] And NOIR, man we huge and we baaaaadass.

[quote name='AirMe' date='09 March 2010 - 05:27 PM' timestamp='1268184747' post='2220152'] Ignorance has never been a valid excuse on this planet and never will. [/quote] I sincerely hope that is the case. [quote name='Earogema']They do make excuses if even the person who was part the treaty was confused as to the existence of said treaty. [/quote] When your policy is "we won't beat people up for no reason if they have a scary big brother," then excusing yourself because you [i]didn't know[/i] they had a scary big brother isn't commendable.

[quote name='Earogema' date='09 March 2010 - 05:05 PM' timestamp='1268183421' post='2220094'] I'm saying that if even he was confused, then a foreign entity like PC would obviously be confused. [/quote] Sure, that's fair, even understandable. At the end of the day though, most people would say that even if you're confused, you're still liable for the mistakes you made. Ignorance and confusion do not make excuses. But then again, if people can get away with bullying, then they'll do it: it's a shame.

[quote name='Earogema' date='09 March 2010 - 04:57 PM' timestamp='1268182995' post='2220069'] That's not the point. Peregrine was the ONLY signatory to this treaty for SBA. SBA is also a very small alliance, and has always been. He would know if they treaty was intact. In fact, if I asked a former TSO member if they had a treaty with IRON, they would know to say "No, they don't." [/quote] So you're saying that because a former member lied/was wrong, then all bets are off and SBA is left out to dry? I'll keep that in mind if I ever want to sink a former alliance of mine.

It's both disconcerting and painful to watch people get off on blaming the victim for being their own aggression. I'm going to agree with Hizzy on this one. [quote name='x Tela x' date='09 March 2010 - 04:19 PM' timestamp='1268180692' post='2219958'] That's like saying for us to contact Hal if we need to talk to \m/ government. [/quote] Let's take this one more step towards hilarious and say you should contact me;)

[quote name='Elyat' date='09 March 2010 - 03:21 PM' timestamp='1268177230' post='2219810'] Oh dear, that means I'm 4, too. D: [/quote] That was my reaction, too:P Bros, it's been a slice. I still remember the awesome times chilling with you in the league/CoaLUEtion/Aegis etc chats.

Unfortunatly, the results to the poll seem to not be very surprising. I voted "no" to having any grudges, and part (most) of that is due to the fact that I just came back from a year long break. Having said that, I've had them in the past (very strongly), and I'd like to think I'm more "forgiving and forgetting" than most.

You sound like a really quality guy, the community will be worse without you.

The amount of work you put into this is insane, Gopher. Looking at the differences between updates at the start of this thread, and updates at the end of this thread is... An interesting experience:P They're barely recognizable.

Congratulations, guys. One question though, what are the "External Ministries?" I can't think of any outside Foreign Affairs.

Congratulations, SkyGreenChick, I'm sure you'll do an excellent job. Bob Sanders: Your belief that Planet Bob is made up entirely by static characters is as hilarious as it is disconcerting.

Really well done on these, Sir Paul.

Congratulations, GATO. You deserve this so much, don't tame the parties for anyone.

[quote name='Aimee Mann' date='05 March 2010 - 05:54 AM' timestamp='1267797555' post='2214826'] It's not cowardice, they are doing what they can to help their war effort. It's pretty sad that you seem to want to go down the road of punishing the (heavily outnumbered) opponent simply for doing what it can to war effectively. What next, sanctions for using peace mode? Sanctions for using nukes? [/quote] PZI for using peace mode. Oh wait...

[quote name='LucasSnow' date='04 March 2010 - 10:04 AM' timestamp='1267726071' post='2213802'] Where I come from, changing your AA, in the off chance of getting the chance the hit peace, is considered cowardice. I personally have to much pride and respect in my own AA, and honor in myself, to consider such an action. Ever. I'd hoped the nations I was warring against had the same amount of pride, respect, and honor. I have no doubt most do, but it seems there are some "bad eggs". If I were you guys I'd frown upon such tactics. [/quote] Refusing to fight because you are scared of getting hurt is cowardice. Intentionally making it easier to get hit is stupidity. You do your AA no "Respect" by getting your face kicked due to overweening pride.
