  1. ok so I recently left SLAP (due to its disbandment) to join The UCR and got this message.... [quote]To: Andover From: Ultra Saber Date: 4/28/2011 12:20:09 PM Subject: ATTENTION ALL ORIGINAL USF MEMBERS!!!!! Message: USF DID NOT MERGE! Return to USF. Anbu lied. USF is still standing and all USF members will need to return to USF Alliance affiliation and pick people to run the alliance. [/quote] Last I checked the UCR forum there wasnt any word of any merger into us and nothing is on the alliance announcements about this... figured someone here might know whats goin on with this. -Andover Cybernations Resident Furry
  2. [quote name='Burnsey' timestamp='1294595509' post='2569820'] I don't know any of you but SLAP contains Andover so I can't say anything nice. Your ass looks big in those jeans. [/quote] Please, if you wore jeans everything would look fat and also o/ UCR o/ SLAP Glad to see my allies from my ERA days treatied with my new friends at SLAP.
  3. [quote name='Moe Szyslak' timestamp='1294282843' post='2565212'] Good luck to everybody in their new homes and with their new ventures. I wish everybody the best of luck on their journey. Agree or disagree with the way things have happened, I think everybody has said their piece. Hadrian, I'd love to sit and debate with you, but given that Potface and I have come to an understanding of each others positions and have agreed to respectably disagree but to do so with understanding of each others positions, and given the request of others to let this die, if you'd like to discuss this issue further and get a response to your rambling, you'll have to find me in more private channels. I can be found on (ooc) IRC as Banned[SLAP] or Banned[SLAP|MoFA] (/ooc) [/quote] Aye I can be found in the same private channels (OOC) im Andover[SLAP|MOE] and hang out in #CN-SLAP , #SLAP and #Furs (OOC) if anyone wishes to say anything further to me about BCOM.
  4. [quote name='Hadrian' timestamp='1294250708' post='2564494'] I don't see anything wrong with "inviting the entire raiding world to come and get their shots in". Sure, I'm an avid hater of raiders, but it's widely accepted that if you're not in an alliance, it's your own fault if you get raided. By all means Moe, [b]you[/b] can guide nations along, protecting them and holding their hand like babies, but please, don't think the rest of us have to do it. Think very, very carefully about your response. If there is one, that is. [/quote] So when Potface disbanded the alliance without any warning the members are at fault for becoming raid targets? That is such a f-ed up train of thought, its not their fault for being raid targets when there leader suddenly disbands an alliance and especially isnt their fault when said leader invites the whole raiding community by saying "Before we disband im canceling all treaties so no one can call protection and so raiders get free targets", Honestly. If you where one of those nations in the alliance and suddenly your leader disbands and (lets try and imagine this) your hit with 3 raids and lose alot of Infra and tech as a result. Dont tell me you wouldnt be pissed at your ex-leader for that? Do you think said member would believe its their own fault for being raided and not the leader who was a jackass and disbanded the alliance and declined having protection from allies? HELL NO.
  5. [quote name='PotFace' timestamp='1294199204' post='2563899'] I've taken the liberty of unlocking the BCOM board and posting a public disclosure of December's admin log (with IPs removed, of course). Maybe that will paint a better picture for some of you.... http://blackstonecommission.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=1025 [/quote] whoopty fricken do, so the only one doing admin stuff was you, this doesnt really prove much considering you and probably 1 other person where probably the only ones with Admin access. Besides, you already stated you set up the forum and everything and this connfirms that, good for you, want a cookie? I dont have a problem with how you ran your alliance, but the way you disbanded was very distasteful and not done very well.
  6. First off its expected if its just you forming an alliance that no one is gonna have a clue how to run government positions besides you (assuming you have experience in each ministry and doing those tasks), Ok? so train them, whats so hard about that? I did it in ERA and most alliances will try and train gov-worthy people so they can run a ministry. The guy who joined SLAP is active and is on our forums often and does stuff, now you claim you where the only active one in the alliance so either A) you pushed way to hard on your members and they ignored you or B) you where an ass to your members and they didnt like you; didnt wanna do anything for the alliance. If you had shown an ounce of respect to your alliance when you disbanded do you think people would have trolled this thread and bashed you for how you disbanded them? no. Also quit whining about how this should RIP, if you cant take criticism then GTFO the OWF. SLAP protected the AA because we wanted to, it wasnt the concern of anyone but those alliances who wanted to protect the AA. If anyone is making a fool of themselves its you Potface.
  7. Does this Bring it alliance have a IRC channel in which we may [s]talk to[/s] mock them
  8. [quote name='PotFace' timestamp='1294061463' post='2561885'] I'm going to make this exceptionally clear for you, so that you won't be confused about it anymore. I paid for the BCOM domain and server. I customized its forums. I did its artwork. I wrote its charter, developed its policies and procedures, wrote its guide, implemented its programs, managed its embassies at home, sent out the alliance PMs, encouraged activity, made its monthly newsletters and posted them here, altered its government structure, listened to input and made proper adjustments, managed the IRC channels, reached out to allies - securing its protection, all the while, making graphics for other alliances as well. Do you know why I did all of those things? Because nobody else would, or could. But that's not all!! I developed BCOM's Wiki page to no avail. I directed training exercises, to no avail. I begged and pleaded with BCOM's membership to make us grow by recruiting, to no avail. I required monthly sign-ins, to no avail. I required proper training, to no avail. I organized required military unit affiliation, to no avail. I encouraged IRC activity, to no avail. I went through a host of changes to show that BCOM would adapt and overcome to its state of affairs, to no avail. If there were any interested and experienced hands to place BCOM into, I would have done so. There were none. And so, what's the only other logical step from that point? Prompt disbandment. All the while, I had taken exceptional care of the BCOMrades - busting my butt in the kitchen while everyone sat at the dinner table banging their forks and knives on the table, demanding what would be expected of any leader. I complained about it only to my 2nd in command. Does that give me the right to disband BCOM at will? You bet your ass it does, despite what the charter says. It was my call to make, not yours. And while you weren't there, and you obviously have little to no understanding behind BCOM's disbandment, because of all of that time you didn't spend getting to know BCOM, or seeing the same depressing reports coming from it's monthly newsletters, time and time again, you're going to come here and offer mal-informed accusations as to what you think an alliance's disbandment should include and exclude? Yeah, sign me up for [b][i]that[/i][/b]. Now. If you're still confused, then it's only because you want to be. [/quote] So bascially you can be a selfish little brat because you created the alliance, the forum, etc. Look ive been there, I did all that stuff when I founded Equal Rights Alliance (ERA) but I agree with Moe, theres a responsibility you have as the leader of the alliance to ensure that when you disband you forewarn the membership and ensure they can smoothly find new homes. What you did was an act of selfishness and you could have very well harmed the lives of all your members if not for the brave alliances that decided to come and protect your AA. If thats the way you treat your membership then you dont deserve to call yourself an alliance leader now or ever
  9. well I predicting UoU would die after Shadeslayers got promoted I so called it.
  10. After some discussion with members and government of the recently disbanded Blackstone Commission, we have come to learn that BCOM members were left to hang out to dry by their alliance leader. For the sake of justice and all that is right, Sovereign League of Armed Powers is throwing our hat into the fray of alliances that have beat us to the punch on offering some form of protection to Blackstone Commission's former members. All nations on the Blackstone Commission AA are hereby under the (defensive only) protection of the Sovereign League of Armed Powers. Any aggressive actions taken by members of BCOM will be considered individual and rogue action if made unprovoked, and any wars declared by BCOM members will be considered an act of individual action, however any unprovoked action against a member of the Blackstone Commission will be considered an act of war against the Sovereign League of Armed Powers. -Ruling Government of SLAP King - Pmacdaddy King - Spoonman Prime Minister - Azace Minister of Internal Affiars - MC LET ME BE Minister of Economics - Andover
