Congratulations on the 100K.

Sorry, I ONLY work for propaganda purposes. Seriously. Anything else is NOT a just cause. /sarcasm btw.

Depends on which battle, who you are talking to, and why the individual fights, regardless of what the CB states.

Depends on whether the majority of the people in the world are voting for JB getting peace his way, or GOP's way.

NAAC, either EN, Double A, See, or NAAC as in I have a "Knack" for something.

When the use of Perma ZI is OK for "General Asshattery" then I say that the person giving the Perma ZIs should be ZId under his own rules. He did nothing to deserve Perma-ZI. You are just mad because he hurt your feelings in public. PERMA ZI IS EVIL!

The Vipers. NPO and cronies just has a negative connotation to it. Sorry NPO, you killed our friendship.

There, fixed the link. This is a flag I whipped up in about 5 seconds. It's like NAAC's flag, but it shows relation of my nation to the NAAC. Anyway, tell me what you think.

Glad to see Mpol is back with his quality posts again.

Only wish I had spoken out so that I might be heard more often, sadly, at that point, I was helping cause the split to HPS more than I was stopping it. Also, there is something wrong with your title here mate, it says "Ex-Browncoats." This is incorrect. You cannot be an ex-Browncoat. You either are a Browncoat, and always were, or aren't a Browncoat, and never were. Let me know when this wrong has been righted.

Hit the nail on the head you did my friend. Basically agreeing with Penchuck here, but you have also hit it right on the head. Especially the "better names" part. I agree with everything here. Hopefully there will be more even wars that aren't easy to see the winners.

When you are talking about politics that do not involve any country that actually exists for hours on end with people you don't even know.

Once again a quality addition to your internet Rock Opera. Really enjoyed as always. -Asriel Belacqua

Awww. thanks. Good read, and excellent interview. Really enjoyed myself.

We started it. Of course it's cool.

Ah, that makes more sense. Yes, I do agree that many people might leave alliances and be unprotected and possibly leave alliances weakened.

Something stands out here to me: This peace that has come over Bob, may have allowed us to "Grow in relative safety from rogues, raiders, and the savage, tribal unaligned," but it has also created many of those rogues, and raiders. The unaligned have never been a true threat for alliances (with exception to Walford's NONE which was more like an alliance anyway and was never really fully successful). The control of the game, however "peace-bringing" it may be, has encouraged us to raid unaligned's, not really letting them live in the way we look toward alliances for. They are not the ones endangering the aligned, the aligned are the ones endangering the unaligned. I'm not saying that is wrong, I am simply saying that the unaligned have never really been a problem for aligned nations, before this hegemony, during this hegemony, and after this hegemony. Very well written post, and I am not going to state my opinion on any other part of it, but that just stood out to me.

As a very intelligent and great man once said, "If you've ever angered someone, that means you've stood up for something in your life." Even if standing up for something wasn't the exact reason we pissed people off, it's the fact that we allowed everyone to speak their minds openly to anyone that pissed people off. Browncoats was too revolutionary for it's time it seems to me. Good times while it lasted though.

When you can't run, walk. When you can no longer walk, crawl. When you cannot crawl, you find someone to carry you, but you must always move forward. Someone put us down, but our spirit lives on. To all Browncoats out there, here's an anthem:

There is no leaving from Browncoats with disgrace, unless you left without the browncoat spirit in your heart.

Not to mention over 1.2 Million NS. The fastest growth rate of any alliance (and fastest decline rate of any alliance... >.>).

Yeah... no. I prefer to remember the good times before you came into the picture and before I left. No offense, but schatt's the reason I left. >.>

Mogar got banned. You won't be seeing him for a little while... Hate to break it to ya guys. Sorry. WELCOME BACK SHECT! /shameless recruitment message here

Last reunion was bigger.
