  1. We are not a brown-team alliance nor do we plan to become an adverse force to any alliances there. The New Sith Order is about offering an alternative to treaty-building and poltical rebellion, not about causing trouble.
  2. These posts meet my daily dietary requirement of irrelevance.
  3. May the Sith survive and propser long beyond this mark and into the future.
  4. Your post reeks of irony, and it's not because you're in IRON, either. OOC: Hail terrible puns.
  5. Now now Slayer, don't let us hurt your feelings too badly. No 'mindless drivel' here, just an alternative. Please continue to troll though, if you need to vent on us.
  6. Josh is a knowledgeable and effective military planner and organiser. He is highly qualified for this position. I am glad to be working with him.
  7. Yes, I got a mention! Thanks Sal Paradise. I knew you were watching over me.
  8. I can only predict success from hard work and resolve to improve ourselves. Also, hello - I'm the new guy.
  9. Must I explain to you how each of these alliances is part of a massive tree of alliances which branches off unto every segment of the cyberverse and dominates the majority of its strength and resources? I hardly consider such an outcome as few and honourable.
  10. Show me where one example currently exists. It is not srong so much as simply 'not' altogether.
  11. I don't wish to disappoint the legions of fans awaiting walls of text but, unfortunately, I am no philosopher nor do I plan to write like one. In response to the new options proposed to my original three: I do not know blackstone nor do I care, and the age of honouring a few treaties and remaining free is over.
  12. It is impossible to introduce into the cyberverse a greater change and greater evil than this: the conversion of law into the instrument of plunder. What are the consequences of such perversion? In the first place, it erases from our consciences the distinction between justice and injustice between alliances. No alliance can exist unless the laws of the life, liberty, and property are respected to a certain degree - if not complete, then at least partial. The safest way to make laws respected is simply to make them respectable - New Sith Order is the means. The nature of law is to maintain justice. This is so much the case that, in the minds of people, law and justice are one and the same thing and law is determined by the highest power. There is in all of us a strong disposition to believe that anything lawful is also legitimate. This belief is so widespread that many persons have erroneously held that things are 'just' simply because law makes them so. Thus, plunder may become sacred simply through law. But here we are presented a third option to the choking treaty-web and to the stagnant rebellion of Vox Populi. I believe in a new way, one where the strength of an alliance will not be by its treaties and partners, but by the internal strength of each member individually. Ivan is the means. This is why I have chosen New Sith Order.
