Well that's a shame.

DONT YOU UNDERSTAND?! THERE IS NO APPLYING. DUE TO THE EXPECTED RAPID INFLUX OF NEW MEMBERS, WE SIMPLY DONT HAVE THE TIME TO ORGANIZE AN APPLICATION. RATHER, I ASK THAT YOU SWITCH YOUR ALLIANCE TO THE DARK LORDS. JUST GO TO EDIT MY NATION AND HIT SPECIFY OTHER IN THE ALLIANCE AFFILIATION. I THINK YOU CAN HANDLE IT FROM THERE.

Brilliant in its simplicity. -

have you actually talked to Ram yet? he is active, a decent orator, and far from charismatic. he is mostly abrasive, abusive, and snide. his ego is far to huge for him to contain, especially whenever he opens his mouth. he was abrasive, abusive, and snide all throughout my time in Gremlins to anyone he spoke with. never once could i ever describe Ram as being in any way charismatic.
[/quote]
Ram is intelligent, that is really the only reason he was kept around. You are absolutely accurate in everything else you stated.
[quote]
I agree.
We have all endorsed this policy by supporting and electing our leaders.
All of those "blaming" this policy on Ram's ego are looking for a convenient way out. Kindly stop wasting your time; it should be obvious by now that we endorse the policy.[/quote]
I hope your endorsing this policy is worth all the members that have left. -
Ok, I am sure you believe this stuff, MatthewPK. You might even be right, though I doubt that.
But when does the line come where is ceases to be worth it? -

Ramirus believes he is above everybody so won't actually listen or care to acknowledge anybodies complaints. Im trying in our embassy and its like arguing with a brick wall.
Personally the accords are dead, Ramirus has crapped all over them with this behaviour.
[/quote]
The thing about Ramirus is, he doesn't actually [i]like [/i]Gramlins. Actually, he hates them quite a bit. He just hates all other alliances [i]more[/i].
And if you think I am joking, that is near to a quote from him as I can remember. -
Interesting that you were apparently still doing tech deals with them while they are at war.
Back in my day, that was verboten. -

GRE's attack on IRON was made clearly in defence of MK
When the sides were uncertain and victory less so, hardly defines BW
DAWN hit us after OG and Zenith countered Gre, at a point where Gre's position looked so precarious that IRON/OG/Zenith were offering terms and didn't even have the courtesy to inform us as to why
the first time I saw a DAWN representative was the initial peace talk meeting
Anyway in case you have been living under a rock I resigned from Gre Gov a few days ago and am leaving the alliance
[/quote]
Fortunate, since with statements like "DAWN deserve nothing but the contempt and pain due to failed bandwaggoners", you don't belong in Gramlins. Well, not real Gramlins, this new alliance is clearly very different. -
That's a good Heptagon, grats.

The real pity here is that it's distracting from what a detestable bunch DAWN are,
IRON are beaten and well beaten at that,
DAWN deserve nothing but the contempt and pain due to failed bandwaggoners
[/quote]
Some might point out the irony of this statement, considering your treaties.
I know, I know your policy, but that sort of precludes you from judging other in terms of bandwaggoning. -

Haha, this is fun! Good luck! I'm not that happy about you using the Citadel name for a personal crusade either, though (even if we did make you King) – I'd like to think that the name and the flag will be remembered for what we all did, and even hope for a resurrection.
[/quote]
This. Good luck!
And good luck to you too, GINOs. -

well not to mention coups don't work. just ask TOP and Grämlins how much different they felt when ES was couped? the precedent as set forth by Grämlins is that coups mean nothing. a new leader means nothing. thus, it won't matter whether Grämlins coups Ram or not. they already set a precedent for that matter.
[/quote]
I don't know about TOP, but ES's overthrow meant quite a bit to Grämlins. Their entire policy towards them changed, at least internally. -

What image are you trying to post? It could be a filetype that won't work or the wrong link..
[/quote]
A .jpg and a .png from my Photobucket.
Hmmm, seems I can post it here. Maybe just that forum?
EDIT: Well, works now. Sorry to bother you, unless you did something to fix it. Then thanks! -
I get this when trying to post an image in the Boiler room. I do not, however, have any warnings or image related offenses. Any insight?

The FCC has a SISTER Treaty with LOSS that dates from 11 November 2006.
I was just wondering if there are any older treaties, that are still active, out there in CN.
[/quote]
I don't know about treaties, but the Gramlin-MHA relationship is longer. -

Yeah, I was definitely talking about your contribution.
[/quote]
You sound concerned.
Also, if going to war with Fark means I have to drink a new type of beer and review it, then I will declare right now. -
Did I just travel back in time?
-
It can be arguably both. White peace with a superior enemy who chooses to not impose terms would definitely count as condition-less surrender. It is practically, however, a no-loser scenario.
-
Welp, that is kind of a dick move on GODs part.
-
This is a necessary thread.

Once. Got bored and left. Only rerolled 6 months later, so I don't really think it counts as a re-roll in the normal sense.

This DoW makes me dizzy.

The whole time we were in citadel with grälims it did not come up, or [b]if it did it came up in an offhanded flippant way that didn't register with anyone[/b]. I appreciate some folks were aware their relationship but you knowing does not mean most or many folks knew.
[/quote]
You mean, like how [i]all [/i]Citadel business was handled by Old Guard? -
Outraged TOP is outraged. So what else is new?

Ah, and what ally would that be? FH doesn't look like MHA.
That of course is the benefit of secret treaties: the ability to pull treaty ties and allies out of your butt whenever you want.
Good hunting, OG!

The point, Duncan King missed it.
MHA Announcement
in Alliance Announcements (IC)
Posted
Just noticed this. A few points:
1) Sad day, though it has been inevitable for a long time.
2) Harmlins was not a vow of commitment. Harmlins was a statement of commitment between two friends. One of those friends has since changed so drastically, there is literally nothing remaining of the connection. Not only was MHA correct in canceling, they should have done so as soon as it was evident that there was no coming back for the gRamlins.
3) So Ram didn't want his signature on the white peace? Tough luck, he lost the vote.
4) Best wishes to MHA
5) Gramlins, please pull the plug. Sooner the better, let Gramlins die with some semblance of dignity remaining.
