[quote name='Mixoux' date='08 April 2010 - 07:17 PM' timestamp='1270768619' post='2253518'] So you're simply assuming that Xiph's relationship with FARK is dependent on the gap in strength between us? [/quote] Not at all, You have misinterpreted, Simply stating that Xiphosis should known better than to piss off his stronger allies. And since he didn't I assume he does. Alot of people were suprised that he didn't flip the bird to FARK. Whether GOD is an alliance that sucks up to it's more powerful allies or not remains to be seen. At least in my eyes.

[quote name='Londo Mollari' date='04 April 2010 - 01:03 AM' timestamp='1270357397' post='2247267'] Defending small nations from unaligned raiders may actually be a pretty good service to the community. A lot of new players may quit if the first thing that happens to them is if they get raided by some newbie unaligned while they are small. I'm considerably less enthused about the practice of refusing to engage in financial aid transactions with any raider, but that, too, is your choice as sovereign alliances. As long as this anti-raiding activity is restricted to very small nations who are unaligned, I think this may actually have a good effect on the community. Good on you guys for trying something new. Do it right, and be smart about it. [/quote] ....I don't presume to know what type of character you are but considering past events I find that suprising coming from you Londo. Times are changing

[quote name='flak attack' date='08 April 2010 - 04:03 PM' timestamp='1270757012' post='2253315'] Your ally's power should have nothing to do with how you treat them. [/quote] You're right and in a perfect world that would be the case, but you and I both know that the Honor over infra days are long gone, look at planet bobs current state. Manipulation, abandoning allies, political manuvering behind your allies backs. The honorable alliances seem to be in the minority these days.

[quote name='Delta1212' date='08 April 2010 - 01:16 PM' timestamp='1270746961' post='2253177'] Are you claiming that he went off on an angry tirade against Fark trying to pressure them into peace with NSO so that NpO would stop attackng him? Because that was the expected reaction, so the only way to disagree with me saying that is wrong would be to claim that that is what happened. [/quote] I did not claim anything. You misterunderstood. I meant that someone of his character seems prone to such outbursts like that, from my past experiences with him. Maybe that isn't his true character but that is the exact reaction that is expected of him. It's interesting though, I would expect Xiphosis to know better than to throw a temper tantrum with his more powerful allies. Edit: No wonder you responded that way, I meant to quote the guy before you, My mistake

[quote name='Caliph' date='07 April 2010 - 11:53 PM' timestamp='1270698766' post='2252689'] So suddenly Grämlins turns into the agressor of a war after they enterred a war but have not reached a peace agreement with the enemy before everyone else on that side did? If Grämlins were the agressor, why wait until not to do this? You are essentially going rogue on Grämlins because nobody cares enough for Grämlins to stop you. Heck, even unaligned tech raid victims now have a Doctrine to be protected, should the signatory alliances feel like it that day. But nobody will stand up for the Grämlins? Its been a wierd past few years to reach this point, when either a rogue or a blatant bandwagoner jumps in to fight Grämlins. [/quote] I wouldn't call it a bandwagon, everyone jumping on the chance to attack NPO in the Karma war, Yes bandwagon Everyone jumping on TPF for whatever ludicrous reason ( I didn't bother to read the DoW), yes Bandwagon What happened to LSF a few years back, yes Bandwagon An under manned alliance coming to stick up for a noble cause of getting white peace for their friends against impossible odds? NOT A BANDWAGON

[quote name='Delta1212' date='07 April 2010 - 04:07 PM' timestamp='1270670806' post='2251977'] If that was actually the plan, it was based on an amusingly flawed conception of Xiphosis's personality and how he is likely to react in that situation. [/quote] Oh I beg to differ

[quote name='LJ Scott' date='07 April 2010 - 08:32 AM' timestamp='1270643524' post='2251553'] It's sad that you decided to dredge up the Citadel brand from the grave, and then to take it on a ride through the mud. [/quote] Resurrecting an alliance and crusading for the cause of white peace for your friends is taking a ride through the mud? My has CN changed since the good old days

[quote name='Eric Cantona' date='07 April 2010 - 12:31 PM' timestamp='1270657853' post='2251728'] Did any of you notice the topic recently? [/quote] * Respectfully refers forum mod to page 39*

[quote name='Kzoppistan' date='07 April 2010 - 12:06 PM' timestamp='1270656391' post='2251711'] Score one for Polaris. For posterity's sake: The effect and counter-effect is quite interesting to see when you step back from it. For the most part, aside from the usual outpouring of propaganda from all sides that angles for some public advantage, almost everyone has accepted responsibility for their actions. What I want to know is: Did everybody get what they wanted? 1. NpO & \m/ = Done 2. TOP/IRON/DAWN & CnG = Done 3. GRE = ??? 4. Profit [/quote] Of course but since the Gramlins are in a war against someone who the majority of public opinion is against, they're going to milk this war for everything they can get. Yeah it pretty messed up but hey, Thats CN

[quote name='R3nowned' date='06 April 2010 - 03:40 AM' timestamp='1270539629' post='2250182'] Congrats on your return. You better not be lying to us D: [/quote] Yeah what he said!!! Congrats on youur RE DOE

[quote name='Mixoux' date='07 April 2010 - 11:18 AM' timestamp='1270653492' post='2251669'] And therein lies the problem. It's not that people are just trying to take petty potshots at your nation, it's that you, out of nowhere, made a pretty bold statement that TOP 'stomped MK' even with the help of several other alliances and that they should be ashamed. It's no doubt that TOP held their own well, I don't think anyone is denying that. And in a war where almost everyone is nuking every day for weeks on end, you're gonna lose a LOT of infra and tech. Losing a couple hundred thousand infra from a war doesn't mean you did horribly; it means you used nukes. [/quote] I see your point but it wasn't an out of nowhere comment, an MK member was beating on his chest about rolling TOP, I pointed out that TOP was able to bring them down by a ridculous amount of NS even though they were being Lit up by a bunch of other alliances. Yes it was a pretty bold statement, but it was in response to a very bold comment. But a few kids must've popped a blood vessel after seeing my post and decided to dig up "dirt" on my nation instead of arguing back with facts statistics and points of view. The mark of not so intelligent people.

[quote name='ChairmanHal' date='07 April 2010 - 11:14 AM' timestamp='1270653228' post='2251667'] I just think it's cute how you list the number of nations you've ZIed (3) in your nation bio. Frightening total you have. Not that I've fought in every single major engagement on Planet Bob (Casualty Rank: Ranked #351, btw), but there gets to be a point when you've fought enough conventional wars that you sort of lose count of ZIed nations. Or simply wrecked beyond repair without massive outside aid. Or caused to delete. Or simply ruined their game for a very long time. At least you don't list the number of nations you've anarchied...that's the mark of an absolute tool. [/quote] Well I like to keep track of my accomplishments , My bio hasn't changed for almost two years. I like how my nation has become the center of attention. I'm flattered

[quote name='Methrage' date='07 April 2010 - 05:35 AM' timestamp='1270632932' post='2251487'] Is there a point to anything? I managed to knock one of them into anarchy conventionally on my own at least. I invite others who want to see an to this war Gremlins has against IRON to take up the Citadel AA and help make them realize the sooner this war ends for them the better. [/quote] Ohhh so thats what you were taling about in the other thread, I wish you luck but this is going to be a rough ride

[quote name='flak attack' date='07 April 2010 - 10:53 AM' timestamp='1270652011' post='2251644'] 5 days worth of nukes at the beginning of the TOP war earned me more casualties than you've ever had. That doesn't count the actual battle casualties. Have you ever actually fought a nuclear war? [/quote] Nope, Back then when I did most of my fighting most people hadnt developed the manhattan project and I for damn sure wasnt in the top 5%. I am proud to say I have been nuked twice. I'm glad people take to time out of their lives to view my nation I guess people also missed the My-Alliance-Not-Being-Involved-In-Every-Major-War-Part

[quote name='Cataduanes' date='07 April 2010 - 10:42 AM' timestamp='1270651335' post='2251632'] Seems i struck a nerve [/quote] lol, well I do try

[quote name='Cataduanes' date='07 April 2010 - 10:26 AM' timestamp='1270650348' post='2251615'] So speaks a battle hardened warrior, we must all bow to your obvious illustrious history on the field of battle Considering your nation dates back to 2006, you should really have seen more action before lambasting others for lacklustre performance in war. A Gangstaz Nation should be ashamed, Just saying [/quote] Oh yes!!, You are absolutley right, Sure just because my nation doesn't have a high casualty rate means I must be a horrible fighter. Sure we aren't going to take in account that my alliance hasn't stupidly got itself involved in every major war in CN, Or that every war I've been in Ive won, Or that I know how to wage war effectively so I don't take as many casualties as some people do. Sure none of those factors account for my low casualty rate. Hey everyone, By Imperial Decree of Cataduanes your nation must live in shame if your casualty rate isn't ridiculously high. You do not have a voice on CN as of now. It is a sin to have an old nation with a low casualty rate! It is also now permitted to take a thread off topic by making things personal now also! Protect your nation links people!

[quote name='Venizelos' date='07 April 2010 - 10:29 AM' timestamp='1270650559' post='2251621'] you dont even make any sense brah. i heard having dedicated allies who help you when some lunatic randomly attacks you is a good thing. [/quote] LMAO, Can't say that I dont partially agree but it goes deeper than that

[quote name='Lusitan' date='07 April 2010 - 09:56 AM' timestamp='1270648553' post='2251591'] Grub gave a whole new meaning to the word traitor. I don't think on Planet Bob anyone had made it in series like he did or at least even close to the way he did it. Scum is what Grub is. Or the greatest incompetent I have ever seen, I am yet to decide. [/quote] It definitley goes down as one of the biggest WTF moments on CN. I wouldn't say incompetent though, he managed to orchestrate one of the most destructive wars in CN, and cover his alliances $@! as they wormed their way off of the losing side to the winners circle. If anything I'd say that Grub is not incompetent but very crafty. He won't make many friends with his policies but he's more worried about his alliance than his allies.
