My future has clearly been damaged by my involvement with TBB. Congrats to EM, good luck to SF with his impending tour of duty, and o7 \m/!

[quote name='Malkavias' date='15 May 2010 - 02:53 PM' timestamp='1273949595' post='2298945'] Heh. Have fun GOONS. Where is \m/? [/quote] Only one of them's in my range, and he's all filled up. GOONS

Best of luck to you, Bob needs more people to shake their fists at.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='13 May 2010 - 06:08 PM' timestamp='1273788467' post='2297247'] Yes I am sure people are happy to hear that if they were to attack \m/ for no other reason then they do not like you, that this time you will not complain about it like last time. I do not need attention. I could post a poem and sketch of Archon and Moo in a field of flowers and get attention. \m/ is far from the only alliance that skitters about in my shadow hanging on my every word. The attention in this case was needed for dear our buddies at Grams. By making me the center of you world you seemed to have missed that part. Again. Gramlins continue their war still demanding unconditional surrender. A war they will lose no doubt. However it needs to end soon so Planet Bob can move on to its next adventure. And lets be honest here, anyone who really thought I wanted attention for myself would have to be complete idiot to come here and give it to me. [/quote] You act as if no one has ever attacked us because they didn't like us. The result was the same then as it will be now: we will stand and fight.

[quote name='QuotingTheCrow' date='12 May 2010 - 10:17 PM' timestamp='1273717046' post='2296545'] I'm totally tech raiding you. [/quote] Did something about it.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='13 May 2010 - 12:21 PM' timestamp='1273767700' post='2297000'] \m/ has cleared up that they are cool with being attacked for things they did before they disbanded and came back or even if people just do not like them.[/quote] We've cleared up that if we don't like you and you're dumb enough to not only put yourself into a vulnerable position, but blatantly bring attention to it, then we will mop you up. [quote name='The Big Bad' date='13 May 2010 - 12:21 PM' timestamp='1273767700' post='2297000']The only thing that could have gone wrong would have been if nobody had payed attention. After all we all know what that is what this is about.[/quote] Indeed we do. It would have been very tragic had people ignored your desperate and rather pathetic cries for attention. [quote name='The Big Bad' date='13 May 2010 - 12:21 PM' timestamp='1273767700' post='2297000']Me joining IRON would have brought them nothing in NS and nobody would have mentioned it.[/quote] Thank you for finally admitting this is all just a ploy to fulfill your need to have attention paid to you and nothing else.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='11 May 2010 - 09:37 PM' timestamp='1273628261' post='2295497'] Gramlins will fail. Period. If they choose to claim they failed because they wanted to, they are free to take all the credit. And as for wasting my time and "resources" I have been retired so its not like I am busy. And I am having fun. Makes me want to come back active full time. Oh and sorry your nation got wrecked for mass tech raiding that alliance. If you were not doing crazy stuff like that and this life would be way to dull on Bob. Makes me wonder what to do after Gramlins cave. [/quote] For your information, I was not involved in that mass tech raid. Regardless, when Polar came marching in on their crusade, I was there on the frontlines, along with those who did and the others who did not. \m/ stands united against each and every threat we encounter. Regardless, I believe even if we had not been involved in the raid, Grub would have found an excuse to attack us, but that's besides the point.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='11 May 2010 - 09:21 PM' timestamp='1273627291' post='2295470'] How is it you have a nation puny enough to hit mine anyway? Are you as bad at nation building as I am? And as for wallowing? Indeed I am in the knowledge that despite my not being around for so very long that people still want to make a name for themselves by attacking me and then bragging about it. I am more than pleased that Gramlins has been exposed to even more people who might have forgotten the threat their actions present to all Planet Bob. If your not claiming it as a victory I sure as hell am. [/quote] My nation is the size it is because I have stood by my alliance and my allies on the glorious fields of war. When one fights in a war, you will take damage and your nation will subsequently get smaller. Since \m/ reformed, I have served in three seperate wars, and the size of my nation reflects the prowess of the combatants I faced. Surely this is not too difficult of a concept for even you to grasp. I do not care if you want to call it a victory or not. Your actions will quickly be forgotten, and Gramlins will do as they please regardless of what actions you take. That actually sounds more like a defeat, or even better, a complete and total waste of your time and resources.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='11 May 2010 - 09:09 PM' timestamp='1273626577' post='2295444'] Oh no, not my nation. However will I regain all that lost infrastucture. It will take me an entire month, granted someone who knows how to build a nation could do it in a week. The mighty \m/ using nukes on all what? 6K NS I had. That is so impressive. I just do not know how I will ever recover from that. I also guess you missed the part where I declared war on Gramlins. Someone was going to attack me either raiders or MHA/FARK ect. I never expected to get away with my rocking 50 tech intact. I am not sure what is sadder that you fail to grasp that my little nation is irrelvent or that this is what you consider a great victory for \m/. [/quote] I have never claimed it to be a victory, although I am indeed pleased to have liberated some technology and cash from you while you wallow in your own self-despair.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='11 May 2010 - 12:05 PM' timestamp='1273593940' post='2294770'] Now that is just silly. You are telling me you changed your alliance policy, attacked my alliance, continue to divert attention from Gramlins crime of demanding uncontional surrender, used nukes, threatened other alliances for trying to aid me all to just attack a tiny nation, that sat publicly without an AA at pretty much the same size for weeks, and all for making you tear up a couple years ago? Do you expect anyone to believe that your alliance is that pathetic? Do you expect anyone believe that you are foolish enough to publicly act and support attacking an alliance because people don't like you? I mean that would mean have handed out an CB for your entire alliance that you publicly support with your words and your actions. Now I ask you are the people of Planet Bob supposed to believe that \m/ is that stupid? Or does it make more sense that you are supporting Gramlins? So again maybe you should go back, sit down and come up with a better reason then what you have provided. Because otherwise you just placed a huge target on your entire alliance. Not so simple really is it? [/quote] Your friends are cowards; they will support you with words, not with actions. If you did not wish to be attacked, you would not have done something so foolish as to go rogue. Now your citizens and infrastructure shall burn for your oversight and arrogance.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='09 May 2010 - 10:23 PM' timestamp='1273458200' post='2293063'] Silly boy you have already admitted this was a war and not a raid. The words and actions of your own alliance has made that clear. Now you fight for Gramlins. Now you fight for Uncondional Surrender. Now you fight for your future terms. I wish you luck in your war in support of harsh terms. I am sure this will bear fruit for you down the road. Oh yeah and have fun destroying my little nation along with your future. I say its a fair exchange. [/quote] I missed the memo that allowed you to dictate what I fight for. In case you've missed it (and I'm sure you missed it through all your attempts to grab all the attention you can), I'm fighting to put a stop to your crusade. A rogue is a rogue. Regardless of whether or not you are going rogue against a popular or unpopular cause, you are still a rogue. Don't worry about my future, it's in good hands.

[quote name='The Big Bad' date='09 May 2010 - 09:38 PM' timestamp='1273455472' post='2293010'] My actions are those of my alliance. A rogue does not have an IRC channel, a DoE and a DoW. And a one man alliance is hardly a new thing on Planet Bob. I went to war with Gramlins and you have gone to war with my alliance to defend them. You have made it clear it is not a raid have you not? Indeed you all have. You have gone to war in support of the policy of Unconditional Surrender. You have gone to war in support of Gramlins. This was your choice. I did not make you do it. I will however offer you a chance to fix it just as I offered Gramlins a chance, you can take the opportunity to come see me and find out how. And no it does not involve stopping attacking my nation, I really do not care about that. [/quote] Wait. Let me get this straight. Having an IRC channel, a DoE and a DoW automatically clears you of any rogue actions and makes you a sovereign alliance? You may view yourself as an alliance, but the charter I abide by does not. I do not follow your rules. Prepare to be destroyed.

[quote name='D34th' date='09 May 2010 - 08:55 AM' timestamp='1273409716' post='2292409'] I'm not surprised. [/quote] Aren't you that guy who wanted us to raid \b\ a week or so back? Why the glum face all of a sudden?

[quote name='Razgriz90' date='09 May 2010 - 05:21 PM' timestamp='1273440059' post='2292791'] I think we all know it's quite obvious your raiding him for that reason. Just saying. Go get them, TBB. [/quote] The only way Gramlins was a part of this was through getting attacked by TBB, and telling us that we would be free to pursue him if we chose to. When a longtime enemy exposes himself in such a way that The Big Bad did, you don't let it pass by. I don't support what the Gramlins did, for I felt it was tyrannical as much as some moralists would. We attacked The Big Bad for being what he is: an enemy to \m/ who made the foolish mistake of putting himself in such a vulnerable position.

[quote name='Davian Thule' date='09 May 2010 - 05:26 AM' timestamp='1273397159' post='2292346'] Err, have fun? [/quote] We already are, good man.

[quote name='PrinceArutha' date='09 May 2010 - 04:00 AM' timestamp='1273392009' post='2292309'] what's with all the posturing and threats? you're a trium.... cant you ya know, change the rules at whim and such? I mean if you hate the guy that much and all, or maybe you just like the gramlins that much? I dunno. either way it seems like you could make an exception and what not. [/quote] I only need the orders for weapons-free before this crusade for "justice" will be nothing more than a miserable little pile of rubble.

Curious to discover who this "we" you speak of is, I decided to take a look at your esteemed roster of friends. This is what I discovered: [img]http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh279/RealDavester/tbbafmp-1.jpg[/img]

[quote name='chefjoe' date='28 April 2010 - 07:37 PM' timestamp='1272497849' post='2279016'] Yes Ironchef, everyone knows that the 'official' position of the Gremlins and their leadership is written down for all to see just like their Codex they love so much. I will give you a copy though.... Here, I hope you enjoy it [img]http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w146/chefjoesb/biggerbooks_bastards-1.jpg[/img] [/quote] Where may I purchase a copy of this glorious text?

I'll mindlessly hail this. Congrats on your diplomacy skills!

[quote name='D34th' date='27 April 2010 - 01:43 AM' timestamp='1272346980' post='2277042'] Where is \m/ to raid alliances when we need them? GOONS? PC? Do me a favor please. [/quote] We pass a mandate banning tech raiding, and now you want us to raid again? Could you make up your minds please?

I for one welcome your return. Best of luck to you, and never allow yourselves to suffer for what your predecessors have done.

Hurrah for Pink Unity!

Why did I read this?

[quote name='Bob Janova' date='25 April 2010 - 07:01 AM' timestamp='1272193297' post='2274206'] That'll be why you signed two MDPs on the same day as your reformation then ... oh wait [/quote] Considering what people say about you, that's an incredibly dense and ignorant statement. It's not as if our reformation was a surprise to RoK and PC, they knew it was coming. When RAD became Bel Air, the relationships didn't suddenly vanish. It wasn't like we were hopping into bed with brand new people, they were the same ones we'd come to know and love. So when Bel Air became \m/, the relationship continued. [quote name='Bob Janova' date='25 April 2010 - 07:01 AM' timestamp='1272193297' post='2274206'] Congratulations on this I guess ... don't really know much about Asgaard, hopefully they can be a restraining hand on \m/'s silliness. [/quote] Here's a protip for you: If you don't like \m/ or our silliness, then I suggest you avoid threads with "\m/" in the title.

Being under the radar is great for when you want to rebuild. It also puts far less pressure on you when you make decisions since no one is looking over it with a magnifying glass looking to make a mountain over an ant hill. Unless you have a fun group of people in your alliance, it will get boring eventually.
