    I urge you to read what follows before outrage sets in. It is always good to read ahead a little bit before commenting on something that is a few hours old.

    The age of a post doesn't make it any less stupid than it was when it was originally posted.

    Londo commenting on PC's honor is as funny as Hitler saying Ghengis Khan was a stand up and respectable guy.

    Really? [i]Really?[/i] That's a pretty pathetic route to take when trying to put someone down.

    I won't claim that we didn't make any mistakes - but some of the trash being peddled as truth is pretty ridiculous. I'll just say that the whole mess was a HUGE misunderstanding..Possibly an epic understatement, but it covers the situation well.

    In the end, it looks like the proper actions are being taken for SBA - and that's what matters here. There are egos in Echelon and egos in PC that don't matter. SBA getting restitution is what matters.

    Mistakes will happen, and hopefully both sides will learn from them. But you are correct, SBA being taken care of here is what matters, and in the end it is being done right.

    Thank you, PC. SBA didn't deserve the unwarranted aggression, and they didn't deserve the indifferent response to your mistakes. I'm glad that you're doing the right thing, even if it did take 40 pages to sink in.

    They also did not deserve the mistakes made by Echelon as well. Regardless, they should be a lot better off now considering all that has happened.

    Well, the important thing here is that SBA is getting what they deserve. Because of that we can overlook the fact that you're still trying to accuse us of editing the wiki secretly.

    Glad to see PC won't have to worry about you backing down from a threat again.

    Hey, want to actually show a little class and do the right thing this time? No, I thought not.

    Your alliance is scum, and you know it and seem to be proud of it. Good for you, you know where I am if you want me.

    I like how you want us to show class, then go and call us scum. Two wrongs don't make a right, nor does it set a good example.

    How frequently ought an alliance re-announce their protectorate agreements? Monthly, weekly, daily?

    Because Echelon was once a protector and is currently a protector, and there is no change in status of SBA, there is nothing to announce. The SBA of today is still the SBA before the discussed merger. Albeit a little lighter of members. But still a sovereign alliance nonetheless. Echelon and/or SBA would have made an OWF post announcing a disbandment and/or merger, but since neither occurred, no announcement of any kind was warranted.

    FYI, United Domainers is a protectorate of Echelon. They always have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

    Would you like me to re-post this declaration tomorrow?

    Edit: spelling

    If the mere existence of an alliance comes into doubt, it's probably a good idea to reiterate that you are still protecting them. [i]Probably.[/i] I'm not going to tell you how to run your alliance.

    why is PC be obligated to pay reps for attacking an alliance? the way i see it is if PC doesnt wanna pay reps(and they definitely shouldnt have to in this case) echelon has an obligation to PROTECT their PROTECTorate and attack PC.
    [/quote]
    Echelon already gave PC an ultimatum of war or reps. PC responded by telling them to bugger off, and this thread is Echelon's response. They might as well of just said, "We do not have the backbone to attack PC on our own, but we will if the OWF can rally some support for us."

    If their don't re-raid policy means don't re-raid within a month, then it should say that. In the absense of a time limiting declaration, it reads as an indefinite "do not re-raid." Until such time that the scope of this statement is narrowed, we must take it for face value.[/quote]

    That's the beauty of vagueness. You can interpret it one way and be right, but they can interpret it another way and be right as well. So who's more right according to their charter?

    I'm digging the quote in his profile. :wub:

    That option is referring to Sparta's tendency to seek out and buddy up to the side in power. If there is enough lead time for them to realize a beat down is coming their way, they'll switch sides so fast your head will spin.

    If that's the case, then it's up to CN as a whole to dictate when Sparta gets theirs, and based on the past, someone will allow them to do it again.
