Your information is bad. I know for a fact we fought more than four alliances that war. M*A*S*H in particular disbanded shortly after we were through with them. I guess you weren't really paying attention though. True, most alliances we declared on that war were only hit by small amounts of nations (10 or so) since most of our guys were out of range, but we were also heavily restricted since the primary combatants were two of our traditionally-closest allies. The hit on TSO was particularly controversial since we were hitting one of TOP's direct treaty partners. MK was (rightly IMO) mad at us for not doing some of the heavier lifting on TOP considering the nature of how that war broke out and Umbrella's relative strength in the top tiers, but the leadership at the time (Roq) and most of the alliance deferred to the length and closeness of our relationship with TOP to the chagrin of those who would have rather canceled the treaty months earlier after the whole situation that winter and left ourselves open to help MK in bipolar. I'm sure all of this is a little too complex for you of all people to understand, so, in short: you're wrong here and you're probably wrong most of the time when Umbrella is concerned.

Needs more !@#$%*ing, only 7 pages of half-assed FUD so far

Great to see us treatied! You guys definitely got a lot of accolades from everyone who had run into you before.

Like I remember you praising the Spartan intervention in the AGW thing. Might make sense for NATO to have like guidelines. Like raiding in Umbrella has really strict guidelines. No raiding alliances above 12 members and no raiding without gov approval. [/quote] While it doesn't affect your point, Umbrella has recently amended our charter so that raids are fully at the discretion of the President and Field Marshal alone with no added stipulations, effectively removing any hard cap as long as the President or Field Marshal approve the raid. [quote name='Revised Umbrella Charter'] 1. A valid raid target shall be determined at the discretion of the Field Marshal/President. The Field Marshal and President are encouraged to base their choice on internal guidelines, but the decision is ultimately up to them. 2. Raids will be authorized by the Field Marshal/President on a case by case basis only; raids will consist of ground attacks only, and peace must be offered following every set of attacks. 3. Retaliation to counterattacks by the raid target shall be made solely at the the authorization of the field marshal or designate.[/quote]

[quote name='Roquentin' timestamp='1332530303' post='2942257'] How about you take your own advice, mrcalkin? [/quote] Can do, later my old friend <3

[quote name='Roquentin' timestamp='1332529362' post='2942248'] Nope. Not what Natan said and Raken had been planning to put it forth before that. I'm glad I kept up the charades, as well. The fact that an inconsequential twitter message was what pushed Umbrella to cancel a treaty is hilarious and just makes you look dumb if you're putting it forth as the true story. It also shows Natan was really responsible unlike what the logs depict. So either he was lying, or you are. Which is it? Yet, nothing happened, which triggered the twitter thing to begin with just goes to show he has no control over the alliance he supposedly leads. I'm glad I kept it up as well, because you were never going to ditch DH anyway, so it was inevitable and I should have just assented to the downgrade plan when everyone was else was calling for it. The idea you have in your head that Umbrella can get away with everything consequence free, but take every thing done against them as some sort of crime against humanity is ultimately what shows Umbrella is dumb. [/quote] I was the only one who called for the cancelation and got no seconds. That is a fact. No Raken, no anybody. Natan himself ripped me to shreds for bringing it up. But thats a little easier for me to figure out [i]since I'm in the damn alliance after all[/i]. While Raken might have supported the idea given your antics, he wasn't willing to push it forward til after your repeated threats and abuse of privileges finally pushed the alliance opinion over the top. I find it hilarious that you think this somehow makes domisi a weak leader, considering how petrified you were of the membership going against your own wishes in your lengthy span as leader. Get away with consequence-free? What am I trying to get away with? You're the one who was begging us to ignore what you did with the twitter. Once you get upset, you can't control yourself. It's why you blackmailed us in the first place, its why you took advantage of the fact that you could still post on our twitter, its why you've tried to poach our members off facebook and our app aa, its why you can't help but respond to every criticism of your behavior, real or imagined. You have been this way forever, and I should know, we only talked daily for years. If you would just pull your head out of your ass and stop being such a dick and recognize that we're really not trying to get away with anything, you might lower your blood pressure a bit, but that's probably a bit too much to ask from someone like yourself.

The richest part to all this is that I was really the only vocal one who wanted the Sparta treaty canceled before Roqgate (I got laughed out of one of our threads for even putting forth the idea and that was even AFTER you had already tried to blackmail us, lol. Glad you kept up the charades after that though, made things a lot easier). I mean hell, Domisi was still completely gung-ho about aiding the !@#$ out of Sparta for weeks after your initial threats until the twitter thing became the straw that broke the camel's back. They should be really glad someone with your levelheadedness and self-control is looking out for their interests Roquentin.

I wouldn't call my feelings "dislike", its more akin to "pity". I'm more upset that you decided to throw a long friendship away because of politics. edit: apologies for sending this off-topic, congrats again to ODN gov.
