We are about 2 more NPO policy announcements away from Shamed having been right when he told me I would one day regret ever championing NPO to my allies.

lol Echelon was a decent bunch of guys? They were grade-a idiots. Good riddance.

Things that I find amusing in this thread :
1) GOONS being bullied...lol wow.
2) Political amateurs that still engage in hyperbole as if there are hearts and minds of undecideds to be won.
3) How ironic it is to watch NPO decay into everything that the friends I had in NPO tried so hard to steer away from. Not that there is anything wrong with it, it is just ironic.
4) 2 War threads involving highly connected alliances can barely clear 20 pages in 4-5 days. Boy this planet is... something....
5) How thick the veil of hypocrisy in CN continues to grow.
Carry on kiddos.

How long do you think it will be that Meth and Co understand they have started something they can not end :P
About as long as it takes you all to realize you engage in all this bluster in defense of Junka. Say that to yourself REALLY slowly.

Dirty. I feel dirty.

sigh.. so many people i like have fallen so far.

Hoo serves, because I will it.
Shuru serves because I will it.
Gibs serves because I will it.
Let not their tiny words cloud where the true bear claw resides.

I blame everyone in the DK sphere for empowering this idiot.

and so the question is answered....

Those graphics are pretty awesome. 10/10 would reminisce again.

wow, i am seriously starting to see what many others outside of MI6 see/saw... No wonder they wanted to roll the !@#$ outta us. We really do have a massive victim complex and refuse to acknowledge any role MI6 (particularly our gov) had in anything... Sargun did what he did because our two new Ms and Gopher went on a !@#$posting spree massively dumping on Shuru and Gibs. Sargun deleted our boards because after 2 !@#$@#$ years of spending his own damn money to host those boards, trying to get people to stop !@#$posting and be respectful of one another, he got pushed over the edge by those 3 people. Shuru's resignation thread was the straw that broke the camel's back. So in fact, all of MI6 is to blame both present and past. But gov (both past and present) are heavily to blame for their actions (or rather lack thereof). Why should sargun be forced to spend RL money for !@#$ he no longer believed in? Mind you I have not talked to him just noticed what he posted and asked for when we had the old boards.
So, how about we stop blaming sargun for anything if we aren't willing to accept our parts in what happened. Gov needs to get their act together finally and the rest of us need to just stop !@#$ting all over each other and former members.
Seriously Doch, you and I rarely agree on anything. But I genuinely like you. Kudos to you for saying what needed said. Maybe there is hope for Mi6. I doubt it, but maybe.

This is far better than the dumpster fire you were in before.

Let me begin by saying, anyone in the world with a pulse knows that I have ZERO love lost for Mi6. I would not piss on them if they were on fire.
That being said, there are some real idiots in Oculus. Not for fighting this war, not for blowing Mi6 to smithereens, but for the sheer unbridled arrogance that so many people who never accomplished anything on Planet Bob, have displayed with their words throughout this fouled up abortion of a military action. So so many of you are bending and contorting what is left of your twitching bodies in an effort to either pat one another on the back for a job well done, or to engage in a circle jerk to celebrate your "victory." I know not which it is. Nor do I care.
Let us be clear on one thing. It is EASY to win a game of chess when nobody is in the other chair. That so many nobodies throughout the annals of Planet Bob History now sit at the big kids table is not , in any way, shape or form, an accomplishment on even the most small level. Long ago the T-Rexes wiped out the Raptors. The falling corpse of the many Brontosaurus smashed the last of the Dilos. What 90% of you clowns in Oculus fail to realize as you all rush to one another to congratulate yourselves, is that you amount to nothing more than the last of the Dodo's walking along a decaying beach pecking at the last of the trilobites. You are nothing. You have accomplished nothing, you are capable of achieving no more than nothing. Your lone accomplishment is that you managed to care, longer than anyone else. Enjoy your... reign. King of all Dodos.

I am guessing humility is not your strong suit. This whole OP reads "I went here, and I was awesome, I just liked to fight, and they did not understand me." You are not a bad sort of person, but you were always in dire need of attention, and even negative attention was enough to sate your need.
At the end of the day, though, it is always sad when someone active leaves. However, I remain doubtful you will actually leave.

ODN are great allies, just ask anyone allied to them :D
The only 2 AA's i've ever been in have been allied to ODN so I have some experience in this matter.
Also STA are top notch, they look out for all their allies to the best of their abilities and always have.ODN were great allies till I joined. Now they are crotchety old allies who have to find their teeth every morning.
-
*checks CN wiki*
*checks ODN's forums*
So.. everyone is acting like TPF is allied to ODN, but I can't find a treaty.No. ODN is allied to STA, who is allied to TPF, who was pre-empted in what might be the dumbest pre-empt in CN history, since it served no real purpose other than eliminate the wait of a few days.

No war is designed to be "competitive." You go to outright obliterate your opponent. I don't think any member of MI6 is annoyed we have this much firepower on us, in fact quite the opposite. It is certainly amusing and/or despicable for some reasons, but the actual war itself is what it is.
Edit: Also, I don't think Kayser was around that war. Could be mistaken, but yeah.
If you were not annoyed, there would be no "You guys are pathetic for needing XXXXX NS to kill little old us" comments. Because, you and I, my friend, we have both been around the black. You know, and I know, that they do not NEED the numbers they are using, they are simply using them. The fact that your members so snidely refer to them "needing" the numbers in that ratio, is clearly indicative of some annoyance.

About the level of class I expected from you.
I love you Crabs... but that tag you wear, probably precludes you from calling out class.
-
You know what Rush, good point. However, the connotation of the two wars are not the same. In that way is the difference, if its perceived a war is somewhat competitive people feel "better" about it. This isn't the case and we're acting accordingly. I mean this is a whole new category of stomp. Going into the realms of depravity. I'm sure those with an actual grudge could handle us with the ns between them instead of forcing the rest of the bloc to help wipe.
If that previous war I mentioned felt competetive to you.... I have to question your recognition of facts.
Is this DoW bordering on depravity? Yes. Does your alliance deserve every ounce of that depravity? Yes.

Hey bro!!! how ya been? Loving the avatar gotta say!
Actually most of us are finding it amusing that despite having XXXX million NS on their side, it still took Oculus a long !@#$@#$ time to arrange this war against MI6. Now, your little rant makes some points but you defeat yourself entirely by clarifying that those going in against NSO/NG/NPO had to worry about their friends whereas MI6 has "no" (technically we have 2 friends) friends to lighten the load. So, your rant while I am sure you thought it was all pretty, does absolutely nothing to prove your point since the numbers are kind of (well really way the $%&@ off- I mean so ridiculously off that it is amusing you actually think you are making any sort of argument) off.
For example, you state that we helped set up 2 Sanctioned alliances against NSO and one that was close to sanction against NSO. Well lets see how that lines up with this war- 4 sanctioned alliances and 2 close to sanction. So that is double the amount against NSO and MI6 is almost double the size NSO was. And let us not forget the 3 other alliances that are there with 2 of them on the first page and the last us just outside the top 50.
So your point is entirely lost since you made the claim that MI6 was bad for setting up 3 alliances against NSO but forget that there are 9 alliances against MI6. See, coalition warfare is different since the sides usually contain more than 3 alliances on 1 side and 9+ however many allies Oculus calls in on the other.
Now, before you attempt to say so, I don't give a !@#$. I am actually quite happy that Oculus finally had their balls drop so that they would hit us. Took them long enough. I am hoping to get pretty high in the casualty ranking after this war.
This whole long ass reply, and not one mention of the philosophy of Ron White. There is a lesson to be learned in the Ron White quote. That you choose to ignore it, really says all that needs said about Mi6 membership.
-
This is likely the move that will be the beginning of the end for Oculus. Seriously, whoever the Einsteins were that though this up, are complete amateurs who have suddenly found themselves in a position of relevance. Cannot believe NPO gov actually allowed this. It is probably a really good thing I am not in gov. My advice to the rest of ODN, if I run for office, it would be in your best interest not to vote for me.
-
So you're ok with an ODN ally getting wrecked for this war, and don't care that Oculus is putting ODN in that situation to begin with? Gotcha.
You are correct, I do not care. I did not care when Sparta got wrecked having allies on both sides, did not care when TIO had it happen, did not care when it happend to ANYONE. Because you have only yourself to blame for a fragmented FA. The "sides" of a war are clear for months in advance. ODN, I have very little doubt, made it VERY clear where they stood when the war began. If everyone decides to stand pat, knowing the conflicts, guess what... I DO NOT CARE.

So bloody much hilarity in this thread.
Stop with the "It takes XXXXX ns to fight our YYY NS, how pathetic" nonsense.
You(Mi6) once helped set, and cheered on a war that began with Fark, TOP and NpO DoWing on NSO. If memory serves me correct, 2 of those 3 were sanctioned alliances, 1 was just off sanction, and NSO was 25-30ish. It was PROBABLY in the neighborhood of 30 million on 4 million, or maybe more, or hell, maybe less, but the point is, it was many many many times more than what was needed.
The only difference is , NSO had friends to whittle down that ratio, even if just a little bit. Mi6, well, you have no friends.
You then joined in, and DoW'ed alongside NpO, Sparta, Legion, Valhalla, GOONS, then later CCC for shits and giggle on NPO. You didnt say "wow, we have about 5 or 6 x their NS, we should be embarrassed it takes so much." Fortunately, NPO had friends to help reduce that ratio a little. Mi6, oh yeah, you have no friends.
You then plodded merrily along as the coalition, that you were an integral part of arranged such even matchups as Umbrella, VE, LOSS, Mortal Wombat, DoD, UPN, MHA on NG. Fortunately, NG had some friends to decrease that ratio just a bit. In case you missed it, Mi6 has no friends.
As time went on, you then cheered and lol'd your way along as the coalition that was going to springboard Mi6 from kingmakers to kings (LMAO), arranged many more even square offs such as TOP, GO, Umbrella, NpO, Sparta, Fark, MHA on NATO. Fortunately though, NATO had a few friends to at least lighten some of that load. Mi6, as you may have figured out by now, has no friends.
The butt hurt over the NS is not about a sense of right, wrong, or overkill, it is a frustration post, from a group who has nobody to lighten their load. Rather than focus on why that is, they choose to play the victim card. Life on Planet Bob is hard, when you have no friends. I read a book once, about a place called the United States of America, on a planet called Earth, in a galaxy far, far, away. In this book, there was a great philosopher named Ron White. You see, Ron was once getting drunk in an establishment that serves alcoholic beverages, and got into a spot of trouble with a group of 11 or 12 other guys. It was this encounter that produced an amazing quote of wisdom. You see, he didnt complain, he acknowledged his mistake. "I didn't know how many of them it would take to kick my ass, but I knew how many they were going to use."

Retired Dajobo is someone I would enjoy a great deal having a personal conversation about the backroom politicking that went on in our era.

I can live with the fallout of my choices, since it is over 4 years later. I do take offense at history letting Shamed, of all people, be right. My ego is a fragile thing.
