[quote name='Buds The Man' timestamp='1293564555' post='2556377'] Oh how i love a person who is absolutely right on the money Apparently Pot Face wasnt getting any help in running the alliance and there for disbanded it due to inactivity of the members. Why CB and OO feel the need to protect inactive players when the leader himself chose not to find protection for them I dont understand. But i guess when your tied to the big boys you can throw their weight around too. My only question is how long till the protectors here have a long talk with their allies and find that their allies arent real happy with it. You cant continue to have your children piss in everyones wheaties and expect things to stay cool forever. [/quote] I understand the No Deposit, No Return argument, but there's another side to this entire story too. The membership of BCOM put their faith in their government to provide for the common defense (and no doubt, something to this tune was in the recruiting messages that sent them there in the first place.) What gives PotFace any right to, with no notice, cancel all treaties and disband BCOM? Some clause in a charter apparently, but it still doesn't make the action right. He could just have easily left and trusted the alliance to new hands as well. Their leader, instead of doing what was his duty, to serve in the interest of his alliance members, packed his bags, came to a public forum and said "All protection agreements for these people are canceled. Let the world begin raiding." At that point, it should be no surprise that there were people that felt the need to say "Hey wait." and give some of these people a fighting chance to find their way. Forgive me Bud for picking your post to quote alone, when so many of them could have been responded to with this same message. I just needed one to pinpoint what I was responding to exactly. All this said, our government in SLAP only intended our protection of BCOM members to be temporary, to aid in buying BCOM members some time to find new homes. We feel at this point in time, that enough time has elapsed for anybody that cared enough to try to find one. Protection of the disbanded Blackstone Commission by Sovereign League of Armed Powers is hereby canceled effective immediately, under executive proclamation of the kings of SLAP. Happy New Year to everybody.

seemed like additional unnecessary words. You can of course wear pants as a hat if you wish, they just must belong to somebody else.

At this time, we'd like to welcome everybody to our new IRC channel, #cn-slap on the coldfront IRC network, and to visit our forums at http://cn-slap.com to get to know us. We will be hosting a pants party on January 30th. This means no pants allowed. -Moe Szyslak SLAP Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Respectable reps for an honorable group. Best of luck rebuilding to all parties involved.

the plot thickens.

Sovereign League of Armed Powers on the orange sphere has changed IRC channels from #slap to #cn-slap

Haz ODN LOST their minds here? Gratz to both parties on breaking out the hammer and chisel and getting this thing carved out in stone.

I have to say, I didn't expect to see a well thought out OP from GOONS, and for once, I'm surprised by a GOONS post. Well written.

Well let's see... there was LoSS (that was a huge waste) then there was ODN (which I will give complete credit to Ironman's regime for crushing what was a great bond), then there was the radical era with IRON (which never should have happened, but back to Ironman on that one), then that was canceled cause it never should have been started and our new/old regime wanted to be back on the right side of things anyway. The beautiful part of that though? Bumpy roads are expected with what was then a new alliance. If Ironman thought he wasn't going to get couped for his cancellation of the ODN protectorate, he had another thing coming. Long story short? Things got stupid, so yeah, we had to drop a cancellation to get things back to where they should have been all along. I'll give credit where credit is due though, ODN were great allies. I hope one day we can be treatied to them again. And tbh, from the little bit that I saw, IRON weren't a half-bad group either. tl;dr 3. And the one with LoSS was the only one that sucked.

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1285627424' post='2466351'] It is my pleasure to announce this. LoSS is one of my favorite alliances, and has been for a long time. This makes me a very happy camper.[/quote] [quote name='Co God Ben' timestamp='1286310053' post='2476198'] It's HST-themed. Good try. D+ for turning in the assignment sheet and using two-syllable words. [/quote] Seems I wasn't the first one to say something about camping, it was in the OP, but thanks for playing. Granted, it's a stretch, but keying in that worked well enough to make my point I think. I mean, come on, I read "camper" and then "treaty, FIRE, LoSS". No need to analyze anything here any further, it all looks like the standard garbage tossed in the typical meaningless treaty, but with instantly less awesome because it has the word LoSS in it. Also see: topic title.

Camping theme. I like this one. The two times a LoSS treaty could be worth something, when you forgot to pack toilet paper or need something to get the FIRE started.

This message is approved by at least one king. Gratz SLAP and thanks to everybody who made this possible.

[quote name='Co God Ben' timestamp='1283630519' post='2441648'] Nice to see you, Banned. How's your protectorate with ODN? Also, agreed. [/quote] We're not protected. The theory is good, but needs more celebrity stalker.

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1283547678' post='2440701'] Only good Gov. member up there is Chels. Everyone else is useless.[/quote] What we have here is somebody that gave me something to agree with.

Thanks for the mention Ben. Glad to see that LoSS has realized my importance in their alliance announcements. This is sad to see, chels used to be cool.

Gratz to both new and returning government in elections and re-appointments. o/ ODN

bump much?

That's funny, I thought IAA only had balls if NpO was backing them up too. Alright, so what did Polaris do to piss off Timeline this week? Nevermind. You must have realized from the taste that the milk in your cheerios really was milk this morning. That's gotta be it.

so much promise before the dots in the name of the treaty. FK used to be cool.

When NSO disbands, the war will end. I'm for this.
