Lord Tri

Mhawk, I have spoken to you, only a few times, perhaps not even that. You agreed to protect the Irish Protection Confederation, and great protector's The Phoenix Federation has been. You will not be forgotten my friend, and ally, and may you enjoy a happy retirement. TCK, I congratulate you on your new position, and I truly look forward to working with you from here on out. o/ mhawk! o/ TCK! o/ TPF!

Bring it on up!

Good luck to the old gov members, and congrats to the new ones! o/ Pacifica!

Join Today!

I am Lord Tri, Chief Bartender of the Irish Protection Confederation. We are an Irish-themed alliance based around the style and atmosphere of a Bar, Pub, or Tavern. The Irish Protection Confederation has only recently declared its existence, and remains a very small alliance. However, we don't believe an alliance's greatness lies in its strength in numbers, but in the quality of it's members. The Irish Protection Confederation is looking for members who will contribute to the benefit of our most holy of Bars. The fact that we are small also gives many nations the opportunity to test your mettle as a leader, and become a major factor as we grow in CN. [b][u]Why You Should Join:[/u][/b] [list] [*]We are a small, tight knit group of nations where you are more than just a number [*]We enjoy a laid back community, allowing for us to develop strong bonds of friendship [*]We have the best beer in CN [*]We focus less on recruiting, and more on building up our younger nations [*]Each and every member contributes to the good of the Bar [*]We provide aid, nation growth guides and programs, security, and a good time [*]We provide the opportunity for you to learn and become a strong leader [/list] [b][u]How to Join:[/u][/b] [list] [*]Change your Alliance Affiliation to "IPC Applicant" [*]Register on the Forums [*]Follow the Instructions and post your application [*]Be patient while we mask you (rarely takes longer than a few hours at most) [*]And you're in![/list] So we hope to see you at the Bar, drinking with us, and having a good time.

Lil Wayne has infiltrated CN...

The Irish Protection Confederation and St. Patty's Brigade if you're an Irish Catholic. If not, the CCC is a Christian alliance.

Congratulations and good luck to the NEW gov members

Congratulations IRON! So far, those I have spoken with in IRON have been great people. Here's to four more years. o/ IRON!

You want it, you got it. EDIT: Screen shots and whatnot sent via PM.

[quote name='mco119' date='20 April 2010 - 04:56 AM' timestamp='1271735799' post='2267385'] First, allow me to be a bit wary of ADI. They have earned the skepticism of Planet Bob, and you have been a major factor in the process. Second, I said quite plainly that I believe everybody deserves a 2nd chance. What that should have told you is that, my concerns aside, I'm open to giving them another shot at righting their wrongs. So, yes, I would say you are partially misreading what I wrote. If ADI disbanded a couple weeks after our attack, it is because they hope to shift the focus away from the reputation [i]they [/i]earned. If they shunned Warbuck, they did it because they understood (allegedly) that he was a maniac, one that brought war to their doorstep via his actions. Further, I didn't cause you personally to abandon your allaince, when 9 of yours nations were still at war, without even being sure they were discussing potential peace terms. Your lack of integrity caused that, something your former government members likely agree about. You decided to leave ADI, and that is 100% your choice. Incredibly bad form..a fact that I have been respectful enough to you not to point out over on the thread announcing your leadership of a new alliance (as worrisome as that is). Also, if we "drove" ADI to apologizing to TDO, as you implied above, then I guess you have helped clarify whether or not their apology was sincere..if it was forced, I'd imagine it wasn't. That should be something the CN world notes. Finally, I most certainly didn't call them "cowards and scum." I simply implied I am hesitant to accept the "new" face of ADI...hesitant, but not unwilling. Again, I'm perfectly able to believe people can change, it's just that most of the time they don't. You're reading into things a bit. I'd advise you to stay clear of this..you're the leader of a new alliance now, and, frankly, the last thing you want to do is draw attention to your conduct as ADI's leader. Despite what you may think, your past DOES have great bearing on how you will lead your currect alliance..personally, I think anybody that joins you should know about it. [/quote] [b]"First, allow me to be a bit wary of ADI. They have earned the skepticism of Planet Bob, and you have been a major factor in the process."[/b] By all means, be wary, but you don't need to announce your disdain at every occasion. Explain how I have been a factor? I was in ADI for a grand total of three months, was in TDO at the time of that whole incident, and wasn't even gov during the whole RoK fiasco. [b]"Second, I said quite plainly that I believe everybody deserves a 2nd chance."[/b] The whole adding that bit in parentheses thing was rather snide, if I do say so meself. [b]"Further, I didn't cause you personally to abandon your allaince, when 9 of yours nations were still at war, without even being sure they were discussing potential peace terms. Your lack of integrity caused that, something your former government members likely agree about. You decided to leave ADI, and that is 100% your choice. Incredibly bad form"[/b] I never said you did cause me to leave ADI, that was my personal choice. I was merely stating that I was one of the many who did leave. My lack of integrity as you claim had little or nothing to do with it. If you had actually comprehended what I have posted numerous times, I was planning on leaving ADI well before Semper Tyrannis attacked us, in fact, well before I even became Lord High Sentinel. After Warbuck's [ooc]real life[/ooc] issues began to take hold of him, he appointed me as Lord High Sentinel until he had more time freed up. Warbuck eventually told me that he was not coming back, so I figured it was nearing my time to appoint a successor. Then you guys came along, and my resignation got pushed back, yet again. I chose to stick it out until I managed to get a cease-fire. In case you forgot, I came to you. I could have done what all of our allies were telling us to do (keep fighting), but that's not me. I have shown repeatedly over my days on Planet Bob that I always choose diplomacy over conflict. Eventually we agreed to a cease-fire. I informed Nathan Grant of the cease-fire, and the terms being discussed. I also gave Shades all of our logs via private message (if you would like screenshots, I'm sure I can pull them up for ya). I then informed Nathan Grant of my intention to resign approximately three days prior to my resignation. I also informed the man you call your leader, Philip110 of my intention to resign. He seemed to have little problem with it, and wished me good luck. Seeing as I still speak to most of my former gov members from ADI on a regular basis, I don't think that they believe me as evil as you claim they do. [b]"a fact that I have been respectful enough to you not to point out over on the thread announcing your leadership of a new alliance (as worrisome as that is).[/b]" Very worrisome, those Irish micro-alliances are the most troublesome. [b]"Also, if we "drove" ADI to apologizing to TDO, as you implied above, then I guess you have helped clarify whether or not their apology was sincere..if it was forced, I'd imagine it wasn't."[/b] At the time that announcement was made, I was no longer in ADI, so that question is for you to answer. [b]"I'd advise you to stay clear of this..you're the leader of a new alliance now, and, frankly, the last thing you want to do is draw attention to your conduct as ADI's leader. Despite what you may think, your past DOES have great bearing on how you will lead your currect alliance..personally, I think anybody that joins you should know about it."[/b] I'm not going to repeat what I already stated above. And you are wrong, my past does not have an effect on how I lead my current alliance. My past has an effect on what people think of me, not on how I lead. My principles of leadership are simple: honor your treaties, love your membership, respect your enemies, love your friends, and don't come on the OWF drunk and DoW a bunch of people. As for my members knowing about it, I'm very open, and I have no problem telling them what I achieved at ADI, and what I failed to do. So, all in all, lovely chat.

[quote name='Batallion' date='20 April 2010 - 04:30 AM' timestamp='1271734196' post='2267336'] This is coming from someone who has recently associated them self with the likes of The Phoenix Federation? Oh please. [/quote] What does that have anything to do with what I said?

[quote name='mco119' date='20 April 2010 - 03:39 AM' timestamp='1271731142' post='2267269'] It appears that ADI has now changed the name of their alliance to "The Shadow Proclamation." I would guess they are sick of the bad press they have been getting, and now they are hoping to start fresh...you know what they say, a rose by any other name.... Still, I guess everybody deserves a 2nd (or in this case more like a 3rd) chance. [/quote] You drove an alliance to disbandment and you are still not satisfied? You drive an alliance to the point where it loses crucial members (including myself), rejects its founder, publicly apologizes to TDO, and eventually gives up the name and flag to which many of them so staunchly defended, and you are still making them out to be cowards and scum? Give me a break man. I mean, good Lord, would you like them to start spoon feeding you as well? I really did like speaking with you on our previous occasions mco, but this is just getting ridiculous. Leave them be, and let them forge a new path in the world. It's also a possibility I misread what you meant by your post, but to me it looks as if you are being quite snide.

Another great read, as always. Good stuff, NPO. o/ PNN! o/ NPO!

Wow, the hackings just keep coming. Really, good luck with getting it all sorted. Once your boards are back up, we'll bring beer

[quote name='Hitsugaya' date='17 April 2010 - 09:42 PM' timestamp='1271536908' post='2264154'] Reminds me of Saint Patrick's Brigade. [/quote] Aside from the Irish theme, the IPC and SPB are two very different alliances by structure. [quote name='Baltus' date='17 April 2010 - 09:51 PM' timestamp='1271537497' post='2264168'] So your flag color, theme color, etc. is green..but you're on white? Well, not the best choice, maybe. Anyways, good luck. [/quote] Well our background is white Personally, I was big fan of purple, but we figured that was wayyy too far-fetched.

It's always good to see stuff like this. o/ TOOL

Robster, you are a great leader and a great person. This was a good call, and it's good to see LSN becoming it's own alliance. Good luck

[quote name='thowron' date='14 April 2010 - 09:09 PM' timestamp='1271275777' post='2260383'] No1 can replace SPB but good luck. [/quote] Never had any intention of replacing SPB, really good people over there

[quote name='Hadrian' date='14 April 2010 - 07:09 PM' timestamp='1271268538' post='2260291'] Of course, my apologies, my intention was not to focus on your past alone, rather, to try and understand why you were starting a new alliance so soon after resigning from a leader's position. G'lck though with this. [/quote] Just didn't feel right ya know? But thank you

[quote name='Hadrian' date='14 April 2010 - 06:58 PM' timestamp='1271267921' post='2260285'] I'm sorry, but, how can you expect your new alliance to go anywhere when you couldn't be bothered to turn the last one around? Edit: Freakin' typo. [/quote] Just starting fresh. Either way, this topic is not about my past, this about the creation of the IPC. You can find me on IRC if you have any further questions about me.

[quote name='Hadrian' date='14 April 2010 - 12:50 PM' timestamp='1271245803' post='2259992'] So, you were tired and no longer comfortable with leading ADI, however, you're hyper and [b]quite at home[/b] leading IPC? Good luck with that. [/quote] That's the key phrase there. I do feel much more comfortable and at home here.

[quote name='Joe Stupid' date='14 April 2010 - 04:30 AM' timestamp='1271215784' post='2259643'] Wait weren't you just in charge of ADI? [/quote] I was, but after my resignation not so much. As for the others, Kingly resigned from ADI well before I did, and Lord Rav never had anything to do with ADI. Thanks everyone for the kind words!
