Who said we were planning on a short war? We won't grow and you won't get tech for the next 6 months or maybe even a year. Lets see who has the stronger resolve shall we?

What stops them from importing tech?

Threads like this won't change anything. DH must show NPO and world at large that this kind of peace mode strategy
isn't going to end well. People has to know it's not going to work and that hiding in peace mode costs you
more than fighting.
It's clear that Pacifica thinks they can keep their nations in peace mode and wait for you to give them peace. And
why is that? It worked for them last time, in Karma.
So don't give them peace and make them actually pay more for it, don't back out from your demands! -
It's too early to say, history and therefore winners will decide.

We both know that TOP interest to back us in bi-polar has nothing to do with you supporting our ideals, but with the fact that you wanted to destroy CnG. So do both of us a favor and cut the crap.
[/quote]
This confirms that you really don't know what you're talking about, but makes clear why you think the way you do. -
Good luck, you will need it!
Also have fun! -
To me it's more interesting to think how much actual money you'll destroy when nuking
people like Alexandros or Hime Temis, considering how much they've probably spent on their
nations. -
War fatigue is a terrible disease and should be treated with mercy killing.

Before anyone gets any cute ideas, I want to make it known that while I have absolutely no opinion on the actual content of the issue, if anyone touches the neutrals on Green without cause there is a very good chance I'll !@#$ing break your head.
Aqua neutrals, blue neutrals, couldn't care less, have yourselves a field day. Green neutrals...broken head.
Just sayin.

Neutral alliances are perfrect targets to relieve boredom. Compared to unaligneds rolling neutral alliances, [b]and their possible defenders[/b], provide more challenge and require
better organizing. Also it's easier to squeeze huge reps from such collective.
Gangbanging them, one by one every now and then, would keep them from bloating as well.
It's a win-win situation!

Thanks, I think I got it right this time. -

On the topic of reps though, [b]the way I see it is that our side got tonked, we paid reps[/b], your side got tonked, you paid reps. We're back to square one and it's up to the next winning side to decide whether reps are as evil/unfair/harsh/whatever as everyone on the losing side is claiming (although they were OK when they were receiving them).
[/quote]
Erm, care to elaborate when we "tonked" your side and made you pay reps to us?
I think, and I believe most agree with me, that the whole Planet Bob went "back to square one" after Karma war, when Pacifica was defeated and punished. That was it and the table was clear.
Now you decided to continue the path of harsh reps by forcing us, the ones who haven't taken reps from you, to pay huge reps. You could have put an end to "evil reps" but chose not to. -

So, basically, you're just as bad as us, you just don't have the chance to act on it right now? Gotcha.

No, we just treat others like they've treated us.

Rebuilding, fun stuff.
[quote name='potato' date='27 April 2010 - 01:20 PM' timestamp='1272363601' post='2277215']
Wait... I thought what we did was evil and despicable. And still, should the other side be on the winning side next time, they'll do exactly the same as we did? What about taking the moral high ground and putting a stop to this "evil reps" thing like many of those self proclaimed saviours have claimed?
[/quote]
You had the chance to end the cycle of "evil reps". Now, because you decided to ignore that chance, they will do exactly the same as you did, plus interest. But you already knew that. -

UE, is it possible to do [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=299&view=findpost&p=2159877"]this[/url] again? I know it takes up a lot of actions and stuff so perhaps we can persuade CnG to let you slip into peace mode just for the sake of stats..

Maybe he could do it now and [b]you[/b] would be starring it!
2 days of war and you've lost already [b]16k[/b] land. War against TOP is horror. -

I pointed out that it's entirely possibly for a [b]situation to arise where you can form a crushing coalition, seeing as how close you were to it just a few weeks ago.[/b] If we let you, an opponent that hates us and declared an aggressive war without justification, just walk away from the war as soon as it starts to turn in our favor then we're just asking for you to rebuild and strike as soon as we look weak again.
[/quote]
Crushing coalition and just few weeks ago? Are you sure you're not just trying to $%&@ with me?! Yea whatever, but based on dealings with you guys, public and private, it's obvious that we are not the party who has been antagonizing and baiting for a long time now. Your fellows have admitted to us they've deliberately doing it for ages. Although I'm sure it's not a secret to anyone. Therefore it's obvious we're not the ones carrying hate here.
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 02:23 PM' timestamp='1266582191' post='2191901']
You guys prefer white peace as soon as things go against you. You didn't prefer white peace during GPA, noCB, and you sure as hell didn't enter the war with the intent of ever offering us white peace. Your entire history has been on the side of those that demand crushing reps, those that promote the total destruction of alliances. The only exception being when you tried to play both sides during Karma. As for this war, you entered with the intent to destroy us, then as soon as it became evident that wouldn't happen, you switched to damage control mode of trying (unsuccessfully) to make yourselves look benevolent and pretending to be victims. Aside from syz, I don't think anyone has genuinely bought into your bs.
[/quote]
AFAIK white peace was the objective from the beginning. We entered the war to support NpO, who had white peace on table already, so how could we demand anything more from you guys? Amazing.
We do have a history of taking reps, but that's history. We have changed, we haven't taken reps for 1½ years and that's what counts. In Karma war we were pursuing for quick and clean victory, and we achieved it. Decisive victory, white peace, shaking hands and everyone can walk away. We weren't there trying to destroy alliances or for old grudges.
If we wanted we could have extorted reps like you guys, but I guess we're above it.
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 02:23 PM' timestamp='1266582191' post='2191901']
Things happen pretty slowly around these parts, [b]2 years ago and a year and a half ago are pretty recent in my mind.[/b] Basically you're trying to say that because you didn't demand crushing reps in the last war (in which you tried to play both sides), that everything before that should be forgotten. Sorry, but history doesn't work like that.
[/quote]
Then you must remember how you fought GPA within our ranks.
At least to me, and I hope to many others, it's more important what people have done recently, like within a year at max, than in the past.
If you want to make any comparisons, your alliance has taken more reps and more recently than my alliance. And now you're looking more. -
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 01:14 PM' timestamp='1266578079' post='2191860']
Had your alliance been smart enough to enter the previous war on a defensive treaty instead of starting a new side war, the sides that would have developed would have had a good chance of being in your favor. By declaring an offensive war, you caused about 40 mil in NS to switch sides, creating an 80 mil difference between the sides.
[/quote]
This answers to what? I asked about the mystical strong coalition that would take you down, by your account it would happen in a month or so after taking a white peace with us.
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 01:14 PM' timestamp='1266578079' post='2191860']
[b]Well I guess that's where we differ.[/b] I think reps that reduce your ability to wage war will be perhaps our best bet to protect ourselves from a recurrence of a CB-less aggressive war.
[/quote]
Yes, that's how we differ. We prefer white peace and you prefer harsh reps. You want to continue the old hegemonic ways while we're evolving.
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 01:14 PM' timestamp='1266578079' post='2191860']
Yea, like the white peace that Polar and GPA got, right?
[/quote]
Polar war happened 1½ years ago, GPA war 2 years ago, it's been a pretty long time and lots of things happened
since. That's why I said [b]recently[/b]. What have you done recently? Oh yea demanded the biggest reps ever, and now most likely trying to TOP that.
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 01:14 PM' timestamp='1266578079' post='2191860']
It's no secret that when you hate your enemy (which is beyond obvious the case here), that you guys seek to crush them and impose destructive reps.
[/quote]
You do realize that's ironic beyond belief?!
That's so sigged! -
[quote name='renegade4box' date='19 February 2010 - 12:29 PM' timestamp='1266575364' post='2191836']
What a great idea, then you guys can attack next month when you have a stronger coalition and sometime tells me there wouldn't be a white peace offer that time.
[/quote]
First, what is this mystical stronger coalition that would take down the over 200 million nation strength strong of yours?
Second, if it's some kind of "super coalition" you're afraid of, I don't think forcing huge reps on alliances is the best way to avoid it.
Third, we have a quite recently handled out white peace like candy, why would we change that?
And people say TOP is/was paranoid. *sigh* -

I'd like my 3k tech back that I traded back and forth with my opponents, and then just vaporized with CMs and nukes.

Maybe you guys should have thought that before outright rejecting our white peace offer? Instead you're now expecting us to pay for the damages caused by your desire to prolong this war. -
Good luck and enjoy the fireworks!

And so Paradoxian war machine marches on!

This is probably going to be the only time I address this issue, and it's only because I respect you, and I think I can actually say this to you without it being taken as mindless rhetoric or petty bickering.
Onto the point itself; you've really lost the right claim that you're not part of \m/ coalition, even if in your heart you hate \m/. I know you guys joined "to help PC, not \m/", but the truth of the matter is by joining the war in an aggressive manner you've helped \m/ FAR more than you have helped PC, and you've helped PC less than you would have if you had stayed out of it. In your DoW, you stated "we will not let our friends get massacred." Ok, fair enough. I can't really argue that, nobody can. But that line becomes nothing but rhetoric when you consider that 1) most of PC was in peace mode, and most of those fighting weren't even real PC members, and 2) NpO's terms to PC were to "walk away". Thats actually easier than white peace... they don't even have to sign a document, they just walk away.
So, what has FOK achieved for PC by declaring war on NpO? Well, it certainly hasn't ended the war and saved their nations... and it certainly won't help you help them when the war does finally end (you'll have to do your own rebuilding)... and you've lost a huge diplomatic edge to help PC through negotiations; you can't use the threat of war as a bargaining chip when you're already at war, and if you end up losing, then NpO can easily, and justifiably say "well, you turned into a !@#$ storm, so we'll need some reps". PC is no better off now than it was before you declared war. In fact, it is worse off.
On the other hand, let's look at \m/'s situation: they're chumps. They punched their last ticket. They knew it, you knew it, everybody knew it. They have no fighting capability. But your entrance into the war gave them the possibility of one symbolic win... even if the are completely and utterly destroyed, ZI'd across the board, if your side wins, they will sign the peace treaty on the winning side. You've given them their only light in a dark cave; the possibility of being on the winning side.
So, in saying that, it is not by any exaggeration to claim that you are part of \m/'s coalition. You will go down in history as either 1) having died for \m/, or 2) having saved \m/.
This has to be one of the best posts regarding this whole war. I cannot but completely agree with it. Well done. *thumbs up*

Great and entertaining read once again.
The other thing I want to clear up is that my previous hint was not directed at any particular alliance. If I want to call out an alliance by name, I will. Don't read into things. You aren't that clever. I will say it did seem a bit biased towards one side. I'll clear that up shortly.
I think everyone should read this part again before making any "witty" comments.
