[quote name='Chalaskan' date='16 March 2010 - 09:54 AM' timestamp='1268730007' post='2227171'] I like you more and more..cause great minds think alike. I would be much larger then most nations my age if I had taken an easy route. Instead I am a third most of their sizes due to my honor. Something that is lacking in this game regardless of the preminitions given during Kharma. [/quote] TOP picking honour over their nations? Are you kidding me? I bet that at least 90% of the nations that have belonged to CN-alliances at some point have suffered more in NS than TOP-nations prior to this conflict. There are countless examples out there of alliances, also the ones you are now putting in the "dishonorable" corner because they are on the winning side of a beat down TOP instigated itself, that have fought against insane odds and kept fighting. TOP losing a bit of NS doesn't make you the heroes of CN in fighting Evil. More have done so in the past, often against TOP. And they had to pay reps as well. Often big reps. Made possible, in part, by TOP. It's not that great minds think alike, it's more a case of delusional minds thinking alike...

[quote name='Vladimir Stukov II' date='13 March 2010 - 03:47 PM' timestamp='1268491942' post='2224297'] We should extort these scum for all they've got before forcing them to leave the game. They had the audacity to attack CnG, the last bastion of light in CN. A very peaceful bloc of alliances that have always minded their own business and are not even involved in CN politics. A group of alliances that always does the right thing and has never caused any trouble. And what do they get for playing the game so honorably? They get viciously attacked by the evil imperialist baby killers over in TOP/IRON and co. This war is nothing more than a terrorist attack on innocent civilians. I say we have no mercy on these terrorists, they are downright evil to the core and exist only to cause pain to others. [/quote] Yawn. Hyperbole creation fail. Again.

o/ the Great Khans of Orange Welcome

10/10 for EUIII alone.

[quote name='Drostan' date='03 March 2010 - 07:52 AM' timestamp='1267599385' post='2212407'] I hope you will keep fighting because I quite agree that the world is better off if TOP spends a great deal more of its war chests. The last thing I want to see is TOP in a position to wage war again any time soon, as I honestly believe they've admitted no faults and learned nothing. It sucks for CnG, but it will make the world a much better place if the big alliances keep hurting one another. o/ destruction of massive war chests and tech advantages from the Hegemony period. [/quote] Pretty much this. To let TOP off the hook in a position for them to dominate the game within weeks again would be foolish. Their WCs have to be depleted for them to become a "regular" allaince again. Still a quality over quantity alliance and still an alliance that will do better than most overall, but not an alliance that can wage war with virtual impunity on the higher tier nations of any bloc they wish to "elimante as a threat" for saying silly stuff on OWF.

o/ Peace! Congrats to all. A nice little war.

Best. Blog. Entry. Ever. It really is. What hypocrites. I will declare war on them this instant!

[quote name='jstep' date='23 February 2010 - 09:18 PM' timestamp='1266956302' post='2199442'] We also gave you the knife, does that justify you using it [/quote] ...and the reason we are now forced to use it. The victim complex doesn't suit you.

[quote name='jstep' date='23 February 2010 - 09:14 PM' timestamp='1266956082' post='2199431'] It should at least get a remain free from being shivved from behind while handcuffed and leg shackled to an electric chair [/quote] You shackled yourselves to that chair, so no need to play the victim here. It's a bad situation for all involved, no need to make it any worse.

[quote name='sha the merciless' date='23 February 2010 - 09:05 PM' timestamp='1266955506' post='2199405'] Oh hey TOP! Thanks for all your help. Yeah, i've been meaning to call, but we've been too busy $#@*% ! on you every chance we get. So like we was saying, thanks for all the help over the past couple years, we'd like to repay it with a DoW. It's the least we can do. Your friends at FOK. [/quote] Friends don't attack treaty partners or aid an alliance (Invicta) we are at war with. A lot of FOK-ers feel very bad over this and the decision truly was a difficult one, but there was little else that could be done...

Good luck in your feature endeavours, Menotah.

Congrats on peace! o/ iFOK!

Respect.

[quote name='Kortal' date='20 February 2010 - 04:35 PM' timestamp='1266680148' post='2193629'] Shouldn't he be complimented for not excusing the foolishness of those on the winning side and being fair in his arguments :x Far less classy is filling a thread with posts questioning the decisions of, if not outright condemning people on "your" side if we're going to get into that. You should be congratulating them on a victory, not whining because someone in another alliance has to pay a small amount of money (a term they agreed to and have not complained about at all might I add). [/quote] "Diaper rash"? "Whining"? How is that any better than respectfully stating one's disapproval, as my friends in FOK! have done? Would it be so difficult to respectfully disagree with us? You state that questioning a decision of an ally in public is bad form. You are probably right. But it certainly isn't worse than some of the language used against those that have voiced their dismay with that decision. I would say quite the opposite. We both disagree with actions from people from "our" side, but some do it with respect and for others that respect is thrown out the window. Having said that, this thread is not the time or place to have this discussion, so I will leave it at that.

[quote name='Lamuella' date='20 February 2010 - 04:10 PM' timestamp='1266678618' post='2193608'] Claiming the consensus based on the people with enough diaper rash to cry in this thread is a bit like polling the people in your church and determining that atheists don't exist. [/quote] Nice way of insulting a lot of people on "your" side of the conflict as well. Classy...

[quote name='erikz' date='20 February 2010 - 11:30 AM' timestamp='1266661849' post='2193480'] Congrats on peace. Those reps suck btw. Especially seeing them going to GOONS who was attacking NATO. Makes me sick. [/quote] What my esteemed alliance buddy said. o/ Peace, though.

Cease fire? Classy? Yeah, probably. Silly? Yeah, probably...

[quote name='goldielax25' date='19 February 2010 - 11:21 PM' timestamp='1266618088' post='2192497'] I yawned at how few slots SNAFU had left open [/quote] May I suggest USN?

Very nice. Go get them, guys!

Kind of disappointed how the staggering didn't work. Taking TOP down a notch (and a very small one at that, since it's only been 2 rounds of wars for many, if that) will accomplish nothing; they have the reserves to overcome that. No reason to be too thrilled about any "mission accomplished", because really, nothing has yet been "accomplished" and TOP's biggest banks are in peace mode, hardly touched by war.

[quote name='Saber' date='18 February 2010 - 10:04 PM' timestamp='1266527053' post='2190178'] As I said, ball is in your court.[/quote] I have a feeling they still want to kick it around a bit. And rightly so.

Hell yeah!
