[quote name='Farnsworth' date='06 June 2010 - 12:54 AM' timestamp='1275803680' post='2325944'] I have respect for Old Guard, though I know little of you. I am not sure what compels me to post, but congrats nonetheless on these developments. The flag delivers. [/quote] Farnsworth

[quote name='The Iggy' date='05 June 2010 - 06:13 PM' timestamp='1275779568' post='2325245'] Also, get Pete to drop around more [/quote] Like he listens to me, but I can try

Through out our existence on Planet Bob not much has changed within the halls of Old Guard. Members have come go and some to come again. We've laughed, loved and cried with allies past and present. The Old Guard Directive has had very very few changes to it. We changed color teams once. All in all Old Guard enjoys its time hanging out with friends, being generally quiet in public all the while moving slower than the speed of snails on most things. Today Old Guard comes before you to say we've been inspired to redecorate our home. A very smart person came along and said 'I'm got bored so I decided to redecorate” Old Guard with it's typical thoroughness and speed debated the merits of a new flag and decided it was a good idea. We then opened up the pool to different ideas and considered each and every offering and finally agreed on a new flag to decorate our halls. Our flag has hung proudly in our home for over 3 years. It's served proudly and honorably. However the time has come for it to retire. It's our honor to share with Planet Bob the new flag of Old Guard [center][IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y172/tatiana1kryanna/Cyber%20Nations/newflag.jpg[/IMG][/center] As stated above, we have a long and honored history with our allies of all stripes, past and present. While it saddened us to learn of the decision of one of our closest friends and allies to close their doors and migrate to a new home. We did not wear mourning black for long but immediately embarked upon a journey to meet and make new friends. Today we stand by our new friends and hope that this is the beginning of a long and enduring friendship.

Through the upsetting occurrence of the Zenith disbandment, TFD and OG have been given the opportunity to get to know each other better. This Optional Defense and Optional Aggression Pact is signed in the spirit of the bridge Zenith was between OG and TFD. [b]Article II: Peace & Respect[/b] The first and last thing to be safeguarded by both alliances and their members is the Respect for opinions, thoughts and ideas - both in public and in private. The second is Peace. Neither alliance will initiate hostile or potentially aggressive actions against each other. In the event minor issues arise, because both Alliances are examples of respectful people, they will be solved rationally and with the purpose of preserving the best relationship possible. [b]Article III: Intelligence[/b] Should either signatory come across vital information regarding the other alliance's security, said signatory is required to share it with diligence. [b]Article IV: Aid, Defense, & Aggression[/b] Should one alliance be in dire need of monetary support and the other alliance capable of providing such assistance, both in money and aid slots, it shall happen. This clause is not valid during conflicts when either alliance is participating and the other isn't. In the event either alliance comes under attack by a third party, the other alliance is greatly encouraged to come to its defense. This same attitude shall also be adopted in the case of either signatory requesting assistance in an offensive action; however, the signatory being asked for assistance offensively must be given at least 48 hours notice. [b]Article V: Review & Cancellation[/b] This treaty shall be reviewed by both signatories 30 days after the time of initial signing. Should either signatory desire to cancel this treaty, the said signatory is required to present a notification of at least 48 hours, after which the treaty will be considered null and void.

Congrats Peron and best of luck. IRON chose wisely with you

Sounds yummy. I'll have to pick some up for my upcoming rib/beer fest

It's been fun getting to know some of you on IRC.. Happy Birthday TSO !!

Congrats and welcome

Congrats to Old Guard on 3 years in this crazy game. My nation was founded a week before OG was formed I could of saved myself many a headache if I'd joined them from the beginning as it truly is a wonderful place full of great peoples.. Here's to the future and many more fun times with friends [IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y172/tatiana1kryanna/Beer_1008.jpg[/IMG] [quote name='neneko' date='21 February 2010 - 02:43 PM' timestamp='1266784985' post='2195415'] If you're referring to Empress Theodora then she's still a tri over there I think. They just don't let her out to owf alot anymore. Since I was in umb back during karma I remember her brilliant diplomacy fondly. [/quote] I was not gov during Karma that was Reyne. As for Citadel and the differences between OG and UMB lets leave that where it is belongs in the past. Good job at trying to nettle us though

I confirm OG's agreement to this cease fire

no not whining.. just having fun debating a certain viewpoint. Feel free to disagree or not. Also what part of the part where I told FH to bring it we welcomed the fight was whining?? Oh well this is why I ignore these boards full of a bunch of trolls. I've better things to do like blow things up have fun with your debates and intrigues

Gramlins has NO treaties at all besides MHA. These guys are also not one of the 'dumped' treaties from when Gramlins went paperless they have never had any connection with Gramlins at all outside of an inner color team aqua trade/senator thing. Also I find it amusing that if you go to the Gramlins boards and do a search for some of the FH names they made their very 1st posts about 2 weeks ago jan 24-27 applying for diplomatic masks. So in that short time they are so close of friends that they are sister alliances or is this a classic example of Gramlins new paperless treaty system being not so much a our friends are our friends paper or not as it is more a hey we are paperless so we can bribe whatever sell-swords are currently on the market to be meat-shields for us? That being said I welcome them to battle they may have come in on the skirts of Gramlins but they are delusional if they think they can skate out on them.

Good to see this o/ TPF o/ NEW o/ FEAR o/ UCN

I love how treaties don't chain but as soon as their is a major war alliances come flocking in with all these treaties that magically chain..

while this was expected its still sad to see all that work fall apart.. o/ TOP

[OOC]real life and family first.. Hope all goes well{ooc] I've personally contacted chill about this. WE hope an amiable solution for extricating this nation from the front lines can be achieved promptly.
