[i][b][size="3"]Its hard to go wrong with an alliance that shares the same friends. We are pleased to announce the newest member of the RagnabloK... State of Unified Nations ...[/size][/b][/i] [center][img]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20071214115307/cybernations/images/0/0c/ROKINIT2.PNG[/img][img]http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss219/kalhunland23/MNDCflagcopy-1.jpg[/img][/center] Preamble: In the interest of friendship, protection, and guidance the undersigned alliances agree to the following Protectorate-ODAP agreement. May our friendship continue to flourish, and our growth be mutual. Article I: Sovereignty It must be understood that all alliances remain sovereign and independent alliances. This Pact shall not infringe on the sovereignty of the signatories and shall serve to only embody the friendship and trust amongst the signatory alliances. Article II: Peace, Respect, and Friendship Members of the signatory alliances agree to coexist in a state of peace. Alliance will under no circumstances engage in military actions against each other. Also, no signatory alliance shall engage in acts of espionage against the other alliances, nor shall they knowingly and willfully render aid and/or intelligence to known enemies of the other. All alliances will remain respectful towards each other at all times and any differences will be handled via private discussion. The membership of each signatory alliance commit to remaining civil towards each other at all times, particularly in public channels, but also in private. III. Protection and Defense: In the event that any signatory alliance is attacked, all signatory members are encouraged though not required to provide aid via military and financial means except for Ragnarok who assumes responsibility for the well-being of all of the undersigned members. An attack on any of the undersigned protectorates will be considered an attack on Ragnarok. Ragnarok will attempt to resolve such an issue on the behalf of the protectorates through diplomatic means before force is ever used. IV. Optional Aggression All signatories will have the option if they so desire to assist any other signatory with an offensive military action in any manner they see fit. No signatory will be required to assist any other signatory with an offensive military action, though it is encouraged to help in any way possible. V. Aid and Progress: Ragnarok will aid their protectorates when able to help them grow as alliances. Ragnarok also assumes the responsibility for the success and growth of their protectorates and will offer all the assistance and guidance that it can provide. VI. War and Treaty Signing: The undersigned protectorate agrees to alert Ragnarok if they have decided to go on the offensive towards another alliance within 48 hours of doing so. The undersigned protectorates will never declare war on another alliance without first discussing it with Ragnarok leadership. The undersigned protectorate will also contact Ragnarok before signing any treaties with other alliances and will discuss such decisions with them. VII. Merging and Disbandment: In the sad event that any of the protectorates decides they can no longer function as an alliance, the undersigned agree to contact Ragnarok leadership. If possible disbandment is an option, the undersigned agree to contact Ragnarok within 24 hours to discuss other options. Ragnarok agrees to do everything they can to help their protectorates avoid such a fate. IX. Termination of Membership: The undersigned alliances may leave at any time, but in doing so it is understood that it will also void all terms and obligations of this pact. Such a cancellation requires a 48 hour cancellation period after notification before the articles contained within are void. All signatories agree to strict non-aggression during this cancellation period. Ragnarok may expel a member for violation of both the spirit and letter of this pact. Should any protectorate feel they have outgrown the need for protection and assistance from Ragnarok, the parties will discuss a possible upgrade.

[quote name='pezstar' timestamp='1282630178' post='2429044'] No one is debating that NSO surrendered. I'm flat out accusing RoK of lying. You're avoiding the accusation, most likely because there really isn't any way to dodge it when the proof is right there. [/quote] I read your post and since I wasnt clear enough for you the first time listen up. Spin away princess but there was no lying. Whine and cry all you like your boy has given an opportunity to surrender which he chose and the war ended in the time frame Hoo had suggested. And clinging to a beer review (or posting their surrender) as a term is really just too sad for words Pez.

[quote name='pezstar' timestamp='1282628980' post='2428992'] Where I come from, "There would be no terms, we'd just walk away." does not mean "You will copy and paste these exact words that I have written for you and agree to write a beer review, or we will continue to attack you." [/quote] See and where I come from its called surrendering.

[quote name='Wad of Lint' timestamp='1282628774' post='2428983'] Nice try, but the specific wording was NOTHING would be expected of NSO. I don't know about you, but sitting in that room I sure felt as though something was expected of me. Might have been placing my signature on those terms or face a very very long war. [/quote] Perhaps the next time someone warns your alliance that they are committing an act of war you might take a moment and actually decide if its worth doing? If you commit an act of war as you acknowledged doing you cant exactly be shocked when you find yourself in one.

[quote name='pezstar' timestamp='1282626409' post='2428836'] Well, it's a shame to see that RoK is not an alliance who keeps their word. That's sad. Everything he used to say was something you could be sure of. It's a shame to find out that Hoo's word is meaningless. He used to be one of those leaders who meant what he said, and you could take it to the bank. Apparently, he's either not really in charge of RoK or he's a liar. [/quote] Sad to see STA doing NSO's !@#$%* work but I am happy to play along... Ragnarok and her allies did walk away from this war as stated. I dont see ANY mention of reparations or demands unless of course you count the alliance crushing requirement of a beer review? /end sarcasm The war was not dragged on and NSO was given the opportunity to have peace prior to update tonight thus avoiding another round, as those partial querys that you were not actually a part of stated. But hey thanks for the positive PR STA!

[quote name='NoFish' timestamp='1281412055' post='2409000'] Not gonna lie, I lol'd You know what the weirdest part about those charts is? There's a nice smooth parabolic decline in NSO's NS... starting on 8/[b]5[/b]/2010, three days before Rok declared. ...maybe it [i]is[/i] a conspiracy. [/quote] Maybe it was the Force?

[quote name='deSouza' timestamp='1281318245' post='2405843'] I'd have more respect for RoK if they just straighforward declared war because they wanted to war NSO. More cojones. They can do as they please, and I can still say my opinion about it. [/quote] I would say being straightforward is what put NSO on a target list? I mean how many times do you see an alliance clearly spell out, "if you you do this, we will consider it an act of war?" Really, was their much doubt how this was going to end once NSO sent that aid?

A moment of silence for one of RoK's favorite memes... thus ends the Joe is BS he is not RC. Congrats to all our new government members!

This was MY favorite part... [quote]<Kevanovia> How would you feel about a merge of GO with UPN? And I know this is coming out of no where. However UPN could use some more active quality members and I figured that GO could use some more say in the world and become more of a dominant force.[/quote] Especially considering UPN could not have less say in the world and can not be described as a dominate force even with the assistance of a fantastic alliance such as GO. GO thank you for sharing this with the rest of us!

Twisted, dont be stranger and I expect you to bring me back something nice from RL. Congrats Derwood, thats a very sexy title you have there!

You picked a fine new home!

[quote name='Derantol' date='24 June 2010 - 12:44 AM' timestamp='1277365464' post='2348590'] You did a good job, especially since you worked off the messed up copy that I left. Two things (intended as constructive comments): The other comment is the colors. At one point a ways back, aqua and yellow were changed on the basis that they are difficult to read. Yellow is substituted by gold, and aqua is substituted by color code "#48D1CC". Those changes make it easier on the eyes. [/quote] I changed the codes of Aqua and Yellow to the correct ones so whoever calls it tonight wont have to fix them. Thanks for the tips.
