[quote name='Hellbilly' timestamp='1298639807' post='2644699'] Thom is my friend and my ally. I will defend him no matter what he says. I look at those posts and can see the point he was trying to make. I can take (as I am sure Thom can) our enemies bashing our words and throwing insults (like the idiot comment above) at us. Its only expected. I guess I am a little "old school" and didnt expect to be bashed by my own side. But everyone has an opinion and I can respect that, I guess. [/quote] RV is a miserable cretin, at best it likes to read it's own words at worst it's looking to ingratiate itself with GOONS. Ignore it, not worth getting excited about.

[quote name='nippy' timestamp='1298384269' post='2641653'] You seem to be unaware of the reputation your alliance has for being completely inept. I'm sorry you had to find out this way....yeah, you should probably not speak of anyone else's capabilities. Work on your own alliance before judging anyone else's. [/quote] I'm well aware of the reputation of my alliance, it's built on events that pre-date my nation. My experience has been positive, I'd say we're doing just fine.

[quote name='nippy' timestamp='1298383800' post='2641648'] You act like you're not flying the Legion AA. [/quote] Does flying an AA mean that I can't speak as I find, that I have to pretend that things are other than they actually are? I'm in PM, the majority of my alliance is in PM. We're not there because the odds are overwhelmingly in our favour and we're in a position to sweep all before us. We are there though because the enemy we engaged and it's allies were to inept to prevent us from leaving war and choosing our own moment to re-enter.

[quote name='hizzy' timestamp='1298368354' post='2641585'] Give me a break, the only mistake that all the people attacking GOONS made is not realizing that you could literally pick apart the entire alliance with 100 decently outfitted nations. !@#$%* wonders, no warchests, and dismal coordination. They can't even defend themselves from 1 good rogue, never mind an actual war. [/quote] The lack of coordination from Goons or direction from their allies has meant they've missed a golden opportunity to dictate the pace and direction of the war. I'm sure they know this, or at least their more capable allies will know it.

[quote name='Banksy' timestamp='1298373682' post='2641611'] it saves money as they don't lose 1m per ga. [/quote] You have a point there my own experience supports.

I laughed, sitting here in peace mode drinking my [s]banana daquiri[/s] pint of mild.

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297585667' post='2631054'] And you have the temerity to disregard my post as drivel [/quote] Ah, bless

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297358487' post='2628055'] Collectively speaking you have already judge us as a bunch of ''liberals'', yet you have totally refrained from actually pointing out how you came to this conclusion, I am sincerely interested in your viewpoint yet he we are with you effectively refusing to give a straight answer. But by all means continue trying to play the troll. [/quote] I thought my last post, the one you replied to with this drivel was explicit. Try again, I know it's alien to you but you can do it. Read what you wrote [i]"do you actually have some indepth knowledge of the inner workings of our alliance and the [b]entirety of its members[/b]?".[/i] I know this slips out naturally for you but do try and actually think about why the bold part is a product of liberal thought. The kind of thing a liberal would say about the liberals he hangs out with. If this alone doesn't make it clear why I consider there to be nothing at all communist about the International try reading the post by Craig I quoted on this thread. Apart from liberal hand wringing of one sort or another being the only output I've seen from the International there's no opposing evidence or argument. All you've got is a name, rhetoric so out of context as to be meaningless and some pictures.

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297356531' post='2628038'] heh, I thought the question was quite straightforward actually. Care to actually answer it? [/quote] The answer is in your own question. Read it back to yourself and ask yourself why I should need to know anything about the "entirety of it's members". Stop thinking and speaking like a liberal and put a collectivist head on for a moment, anyone can, it won't hurt.

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297354083' post='2628007'] Do you state this on the basis of the posts of INT members in this thread? or do you actually have some indepth knowledge of the inner workings of our alliance and the entirety of its members? [/quote] Is that a rhetorical question designed to say feel like you're whole alliance is being tarred with the same brush in a horribly unfair way? Bless.

[quote name='The Trail' timestamp='1297299094' post='2627453'] I never really got an answer from our International diplomat on how INT uses communism in its alliance, When I looked over the nation lists of INT it was quite obvious they did not have a one class system and that the upper class exploit the lower class [/quote] They're not communists, they're a bunch of hand wringing liberals. A real communist would neck shot the lot of em.

[quote name='Comrade Craig' timestamp='1297186339' post='2625825'] You have a black and red avatar. You're far more hardcore than I am. Might I inquire about how such an anachronism should occur that a dedicated anarchist like yourself should find himself serving in a Roman legion? [ooc]Having trouble telling real life from a game? That's a bona fide mental disorder, and they have medications for it. Call your shrink. And take a look at my avatar. It's a fellow named Pierre Joseph Proudhon, father of modern anarchism and petite bourgeois to the core.[/ooc] -Craig [/quote] I'm not an anarchist, I'm a Legionnaire, I'd have thought me being in The Legion would have made that obvious. This doesn't prevent me from being able to see a communist that isn't a communist post like a liberal because they're a liberal. [ooc] precisely because I can seperate r/l from a game I'm not in a political alliance. It makes zero sense in this context with the possible exception of the LSF as there's at least some consistency in their approach of having no government.[/ooc]

[quote name='Comrade Craig' timestamp='1297143872' post='2625332'] I don't understand why you don't understand. You're fighting in defense of someone who is bad because they didn't wait to be attacked by someone who used to be bad but now are good because they got attacked first this time. This makes you evil. So next time around, someone will attack you first, and then you'll be good again. It's quite simple. -Craig [/quote] I love liberals, especially liberals who think they're commies. International liberals

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297096482' post='2624089'] !@#$ man you want me to do the work for you?!?! lazy Sabcat is lazy [/quote] Damn right, lying by the fire that is my nation

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297094385' post='2624045'] Probably (not all of us are Trots you know), and tbh you could always get off your rear end and declare on them [/quote] Link me to a trot and I'll do just that.

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1297088086' post='2623978'] Commitment to CnG is everything Golan, it overrides the personal misgivings some of us clearly have. If we commies where not serious about our commitment to the bloc we are members of we would not have joined in the first place. There is no alternative when a ally goes to war, you are duly obliged to follow them no matter what otherwise one should not be signing up to such treaties. And while I do have serious misgivings about the war on Pacifica lets not try pass it off as the worst kind of thing this world has ever seen, because I have suffered far worse in the past (on more than one occasion). Not that two wrongs make a right, but again commitment to allies and the duty to them must be a [b]necessity [/b]not an [b]optional course of action[/b]. If I was scared of having to do something unpalatable then I would have joined GPA a long time ago. [/quote] All very nice. Have you got any trot nations around 10k NS? I've got a couple of free slots if you'd be so kind to send them my way.

[quote name='HellAngel' timestamp='1297077418' post='2623901'] Says the alliance repeatedly making grammar mistakes in their attempt to make "real german" announcements. [/quote] NoR make grammatical errors!? TGE must be the best German, not German, German alliance there is then.

[quote name='Trikoupis' timestamp='1297074137' post='2623881'] If I know Craig a bit, he is 100% percent honest when he says this. Both international law and morals would risk to lose their relevance, if we were to stop bending them both and bringing them together. What would fire power be good for if it had no ideals to back and what would ideals matter without fire power to back them? You can't do politics if you root only for morals or only for calculating reason. You have to root for both. You have to be an armed prophet, for all unarmed prophets are bound to doom. [/quote] There is no morality, there is only war. And war is [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E8m-ADUAhg"]good[/url]

[quote name='Bob Ilyani' timestamp='1296886204' post='2620086'] Shoulda declared on NoR for fun. Plus it would be fun to see you destroyed. [/quote] If they declared on NoR they'd win. Not the war but some respect. This is pathetic.

[quote name='memoryproblems' timestamp='1296712519' post='2617275'] A white peace is peace without terms, in this particular situation, NoR has exited agreeing not to enter again, which in itself is a term, therefore the peace is not white in nature. While provided it is by no means what one would normally consider a surrender, technically, you've agreed to a term, and that constitutes surrender. There have been some recent examples of white peace in its purest form, which this technically is not. [/quote] Just maybe NoR decided that they don't care about re-entering and even less about what anyone thinks. They could just have based their decisions on their own priorities. I'm just guessing.

[quote name='magicninja' timestamp='1296536917' post='2614031'] Stop accepting the NPO-Doomhouse !@#$%^&* folks. If you are on the Polar-VE front one has absolutely nothing to do with the other. [/quote] What does it matter? If alliances pursuing peace had any intention of entering on the NPO - Doomhouse front then they wouldn't agree to those terms. They've fought for allies, don't give them grief for something that doesn't matter.

[quote name='Moridin' timestamp='1296422989' post='2611496'] Why does anybody think these sort of idiotic callout threads will actually bring about some meaningful change from the other side? Or, if you don't think they will, why make them? [/quote] For our amusement? Because they're frustrated that no one will dance to their tune? Because there's nothing else they can do? They're comedy gold. FAN are the funniest though.

[quote name='Franz Ferdinand' timestamp='1296256798' post='2608070'][url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZOd_gFld9c"]theme[/url]. All shall be in awe of our gloriously homed music, beamed directly from glorious Lavender Town's Tower! [/quote] What in the name of Admin is that? You deserve to die for it. Do the decent thing and destroy your own infra and dance to that noise while you do it. DIE

FAN are funny.

[quote name='Rugby' timestamp='1296301737' post='2609399'] No, I already made that point for you. See, we can help each other through this. You are right, I mispoke. I can admit when I have made a fault. I was talking about the alliances we declared upon. It does not change the fact that you are clearly on the opposing side and the future of success for that side looks grim. My point being - why spend all this time being angry and spiteful when you could have fun and gain respect for yourselves? It's hard to refute an ad hominem attack, simply saying "your alliance sucks" is not fact, and yes you can attempt to "prove" it with isolated and specifically picked details but you cannot prove it absolutely. Nor will I be able to refute it entirely because you have a bias against what I am saying. See, I wouldn't put the smug smiley on if I were you, it's entirely premature. We attacked because Sparta required our help, they did not initially require our help and thus did not ask for it. They did not ask for it three days ago, thus there was nothing to prepare for. They asked for it today, so we prepared and declared today. And lastly, you appear to have a habit of trying to tell people they suck. I don't know if this is ever going to work out for you, do you have another hobby you could try? [OOC] Small matter of point, it's Summer here. So you're wrong. Again. [OOC] [/quote] I'm on the other side of this enormous screaming mess of a war but I like that post. Completely wasted though. "No you" is more appropriate round here. Good luck in the war. I'm sure you won't mind that I hope you lose.
