  1. [quote name='Heft' date='20 April 2010 - 08:40 PM' timestamp='1271813991' post='2268535'] Yay team. [quote]Cynic, on 20 April 2010 - 07:36 PM, said: I remember you and it's good to see that you worked your way up the ranks. I came back and kept my head down just so that I can enjoy just being a regular member, I never forgot you guys its just that there's no way I would have been able to do that if I rejoined when I restarted...[/quote] Huh. Alright then. [/quote] Yeah my thoughts exactly Heft.... Furytear... The guy who invented "are you a neurosurgeon? No but I did stay at a holiday in express in Francograd, Pacifica." The guy who played the "My girl friend got run over by a car in Francograd" card. The guy who show'd everyone in IRON pictures of himself that were clearly of a Francograd underwear model... That Furytear IC FtW...
  2. Change is hard but is also exciting. We are lucky to have the out going council members staying on as valued members. IRON is blessed with a deep bench. Along those lines I'd like to say hi to some long missed members. Golan 1st , ak47don , iAmthey and heft.
  3. I like to formally welcome our new neutral overlords... Oh wait, never mind.
  4. Good to see that Omni is still around and kicking! Good luck on your 27th congress!
  5. Makes sense. The best one can do in these confusion times when treaties lines criss cross and make you want to jump..... (off the OWF...)
  6. Obligatory: Hail to the Sith, baby! I would like to formally welcome our new sith overlords. We had alot of fun with NSO in our Q&A a while back. I'm glad to see there might be some more fun to be had in the future.
  7. A high level RoK government advicer using a multi to spy on IRON and NATO while trying to stir up trouble between NSO and TOP.... well that doesn't sound anything like something RoK would support. I've read post after post from RoK, Athens, and GoD about how spying is bad....
  8. Doitzel! This is epic! I once was lost but now I am found. After 1000+ days in the darkness I can now see the light. All Hail Doitzel the Bringer of Light
  9. WoW I thought the days of static IP adress were over. Heck my cable provider even uses dynamic IP assignments... I couldn't imagin a Uni netowork with 100,000+ computers all having static adresses.
  10. This explains it. Ever wonder why the area's that have the most problems are the areas that recieve the most aid, highest NGO involvement, ect? People starve because of systemic problems in the country they live in. These countries are often "run" in such a terrible way that famine, war, and displacement are inevitable. While donating to UNICEF and other NGO seems like a good idea and might make you feel better it does nothing to fix the systemic problem that is causing the famine/war/displacement in the first place. In fact it actual can prolong suffering because of decreasing the anger the people otherwise would direct at the corupt "government". If one desires an analogy one can be drawn, I'llbeit a poor one to a homeless person. Sure giving him/her a couple bucks for some food is nice, it won't help him in the long run. Giving them free room and board at a shelter will keep her from freezing to death and keep the city looking nicer, but will do nothing for the actual homeless person. One has to adress the REASON why the person homeless to actual impact what really maters. (typically its a mental health issue or a dependency issue) Anywho. Feel free to do what you will with your money, but as always realize that projecting your own morality on some one else microeconomic decisions is problematic at best, foolhardy at the worse.
