    We are again talking about that SECOND SS.

    Too bad that the CB is not about the second SS, but about the first - the one with the shopped IP number, as people from the Lodge (and whatnot) already have stated - ad nauseam - in several posts.

    And those "friends stabbed in the back", as some have depicted the 57th, are the same friends who have been helped just one month ago in the Browncoat fiasco, and the same friends to whom the Lodge members - myself included - have donated more tha 100 millions bucks to help them after their war. And those are facts, not alleged or real photoshop jobs.

    But those are - obviously - ancillary speculations which do not count against the One True Truth osf Some: that the Lodge is a gang of bullies out there to backstab their closest friends.

    And I quote uisge: hope that this mess gets sorted soon, although I am not sure that the trolls who feast here will allow that.

    Obscurus is correct, The 57th and GLoF were friends and allies. The Lodge did aid The 57th after the BC war and it was much appreciated. In fact I will even state that one of GLoF's other allies (NV) help negotiate that peace, which is also appreciated. We have been friends and allies for longer than I have taken any interest in the external dealings of the alliance. It is for this very reason that I was absolutely shell shocked when I logged into my nation the other night to see I had been attacked by our own friends. It is for this reason that I was completely taken aback that no one had made any serious effort to contact a member of government and come to a resolution other than the one that GLoF decided to pursue.

    Lastly I will say that of course all parties wish for this to come to peaceful end soon, however The 57th did not send forged documents to GLoF and will not admit to such in order to bring about that peace.

    Either way there is questionable content with this whole issue. [/quote]

    Everyone's point entirely, and our former ally attacked us over very questionable content.

    EDIT TO CLARIFY EARLIER STATEMENT: The screen shots even your leadership has doubts about are those that are supposed to be of a topic on our forums.

    Ok I will play this game with you.

    which one in particular?

    The IP screenshot initially submitted by Veneke. Which we originally took at face value?

    Or the internal command board? In order to fake something like that there would be a lot of pix-elation distortion. You would lose quality from the original screenshot and there is no graphic editor out there that can overcome these issues [u][b]totally[/b][/u]. I see no [u][b]discernible distortion[/b][/u] in the image. If someone created and manipulated an image than well I take my hat off to them. If that is the case someone still needs access to a base image to manipulate ( sorry can't do that from scratch ). The question still begs to differ who from the 57th took that screenshot? Still though I see no way how the command board image could have been faked. I can definitely see how the IP images could be misinterpreted.

    One observation on the IP screenshots - the distortion shown in the IP screenshots is [u][b]inconsistent[/b][/u] with JPEG compression. You should have uniform distortion throughout the image and not just around the text. It looks like someone did a bad job matching the color around the text. *shrugs*

    The command board screenshot seems to be imo the only valid thing in this whole mess. I imagine that would make just about any leader in this game angry. What happens afterwards... that I guess is the real debate here?

    I think you need to get in contact with your own leadership as even they have all but conceded that the supposed screen shot from our forums is a poor fake. A quick browse through the logs from day one of the talks will show you that as well. I will thank you though for helping point out that the other screen shot is fake as well, you might want to bring that concern up to your leaders while you are talking to them.

  6. The treaty would have been considered broken by 57th after they were caught spying on GLOF. Last time I checked, the NSO had a very similar response to spies to GLOF's current one.

    You're so far off base the pitcher had time to tag you out himself and run home to kiss your mother. The 57th has not been accused of sping anywhere in the DoW

    I should let you know that "Death Before Dishonour" is currently the name of an active alliance.

    Spelled differently and really a moot point. Although I think I'd like to meet them, love the name and what it stands for.
