I just can't watch Pawn Stars. Besides the fact that it is dumb as mess. Say it with a Southern accent and you'll see why.

Impressive. o/ bourbon.

Hey Gopher, might want to check Pacifica's flag there...

[quote name='Matthew PK' date='29 May 2010 - 02:31 PM' timestamp='1275157872' post='2315732'] You're not breaking anything. By surrendering you have [b]not agreed to any subsequent terms[/b] This concept is really not that difficult to comprehend. [/quote] I am [b]not[/b] rehashing this debate over surrender again. Stop butchering my language and use words that mean what you think they mean.

[quote name='TypoNinja' date='28 May 2010 - 10:27 PM' timestamp='1275100005' post='2315189'] I gotta admit, I didn't spot the Typo either. [/quote] I actually laughed out loud. Oh the irony! Thank you, Nebula-X. It's been a pleasure working with you, and I as well as the rest of IRON appreciate the gesture (and the monies!).

[quote name='Matthew PK' date='28 May 2010 - 09:48 PM' timestamp='1275097663' post='2315156'] What's more hilarious is that you actually seem to believe that IRON [b]cannot[/b] go back to fighting if they refuse our terms. What other possible course of action could there be? [/quote] You missed the other party. Those who believe that IRON has honor and will do what it says we will do. If we surrender, we surrender. Just because we [b]can[/b] break surrender terms does not mean we [b]should[/b].

Congratulations, man. How many years in bill lock are you?

[quote name='Matthew PK' date='27 May 2010 - 03:58 PM' timestamp='1274990275' post='2313768'] Here's the problem: People have assumed the following progression: GRE members are leaving => GRE's actions are tyrannical I contend that a more logical progression is: GRE members are leaving => some GRE members feel this action GRE is taking is wrong, like the rest of the world[/quote] Fixed that for you. [quote name='Matthew PK' date='27 May 2010 - 03:58 PM' timestamp='1274990275' post='2313768'] Even if GRE shrinks to 1 nation, it will not change the [b]fact[/b] that GRE is not making any tyrannical demands. [/quote] It won't change the fact because there has never been a fact to change.

I thank you sincerely for your help. Any help is appreciated.

I actually laughed out loud when I read your post. You wasted my time, but in a good way.

That is an awesome alliance name. Congrats on the treaty.

[quote]1. Peace mode! You can use it! It's a click away! Don't get angry when somebody comes along and sacks a nation[/quote] You hear that, CnG? We were perfectly justified in our attack! Joking aside, have fun destroying the nation. I enjoyed the messages.

And if you turn to your left, you'll see anouther person take advantage of his free speech rights provided by [font="Comic Sans MS"]Karma[/font] to slander other sovereign alliances...he's a clever one at that. Now we observers are left to wonder...who is next? Nice article, though. I actually enjoyed it. Go for Sir Paul levels next.

[quote name='Penkala' date='24 May 2010 - 10:59 AM' timestamp='1274713145' post='2310229'] I have a life so unfortunately I can't sit here debating you 24/7. When I feel ready to take on the monumentally time wasting task of proving a widely accepted fact that you are whining, I will do so. And then my word will be enough for you, because you are clearly wrong on this subject (lying through your teeth, even.) I KNEW IT MAN. That Penkala is so full of !@#$. WE'VE NEVER WHINED! EVER! In 300 pages of posts that loser won't even be able to find a single tear from us! [/quote] Wow, Penkala. I called you out on this the first time and you did the [b]exact same thing[/b]. [u]Again.[/u] Except this time you added in an ad hominem, congratulations! I'll just repeat myself here: [quote name='Gamemaster1' date='22 May 2010 - 04:53 PM' timestamp='1274561603' post='2308358'] Wow, that was an impressive way to dodge my request. You really proved yourself right by doing that. I'll request it again: Show me where I've whined. He who asserts, must prove. [/quote] EDIT: Ah, you responded as I was typing this post. 1. That isn't whining 2. Perhaps there is one (or a few) instances of IRON members whining. But you are painting our entire alliance as whining, which simply isn't the case.

So I'm still waiting for Penkala to show me IRON whining like he said he would. If it is really so easy of a point to prove.

[quote name='Penkala' date='22 May 2010 - 04:45 PM' timestamp='1274561121' post='2308349'] IRON hasn't whined about this war. Rightttttttttt. Why do I even bother? You can't accept simple facts. [/quote] Wow, that was an impressive way to dodge my request. You really proved yourself right by doing that. I'll request it again: Show me where I've whined. He who asserts, must prove.

[quote name='Penkala' date='22 May 2010 - 04:26 PM' timestamp='1274559956' post='2308326'] My problem is with the whining over a half dozen threads and over 200 pages of posts. It's ridiculous. If you're going to take a 'wait them out' approach, quit complaining about how long it's taking. If it's taking too long, then gather some outsiders and attack them. If neither of these are acceptable, surrender. It's really that simple. But whining when YOU took the strategy of continuing the war for months is annoying. And yes, you are whining. And you are complaining. [/quote] This thread has been about us arguing with Matthew_PK and Ertyy over why they are wrong. Not whining or complaining. As to your final point, I'll bite. Show me where I've whined.

[quote name='Penkala' date='22 May 2010 - 02:12 PM' timestamp='1274551910' post='2308191'] You do realize that this is a [i]war[/i] and that wars do hurt, right? Because IRON seems to forget that. I'm sure you wish war could consist of a DoW and then surrender terms with no real fighting, but that's not the way it works. My point stands: If you want to end this, you can fight.[/quote] ..or, we can be realistic and realize that fighting isn't always the best option. [quote name='Penkala' date='22 May 2010 - 02:12 PM' timestamp='1274551910' post='2308191'] ...whining...unwilling to buckle down...whine...work up the courage...whining......not comprehend...whining...doing nothing...man up...Sitting here like babies and crying...Quit crying...whining...crying...complaining... [/quote] The ghist of your entire post. Now that we've drawn out your clear bias against IRON, let's get a few things straight. We aren't whining. We aren't complaining. If anything, we are frustrated over how stupid this entire affair is. Don't take our posts on the forums to mean whining or crying, because they aren't. Oh, and boo hoo, whine whine whine, cry. [quote name='Matthew PK' date='22 May 2010 - 02:23 PM' timestamp='1274552578' post='2308199'] So instead, IRON will pretend that GRE's NS drop has something to do with their amazing strategic prowess. [/quote] It doesn't, and we don't. The reason Gremlins is losing strength is because most of your members find this situation unacceptable and are leaving. Our 'tactics', fighting or not fighting, really won't have anywhere near as much impact as your own policies.

[quote name='Penkala' date='21 May 2010 - 10:34 PM' timestamp='1274495640' post='2307560'] Really. Competent opponent. Which you really aren't. He's right. This could have -- and should have -- been over weeks ago. But instead you continue to whine here rather than doing something to end it. [/quote] Oh really. Enlighten us with your competence.

[quote name='Davian Thule' date='20 May 2010 - 11:39 PM' timestamp='1274413174' post='2306419'] [b]Only Loser[/b] [color="#ff8c00"][b]The Order Of The Paradox[/b][/color] [color="red"](-0.17)[/color] [/quote] I see what you did there... Also, wrong.

Wow, expected/10 here.

Congratulations, and good luck.

The Matthew_PK levels in this announcement are dangerously high.
