[quote name='zzzptm' timestamp='1328072849' post='2912290'] Ah, the smug, dismissive retort! Just the perfect thing to complete the repertoire of the spunky bully! Note the condescending tone that does nothing to acknowledge the speaker's own failings (the aforementioned sophomoric homophobia), forcing judgement onto the one that called him on the carpet for said failings, viz. the person to whom the present interlocutor refers to by means of the perpendicular pronoun. Now, good sir, one has to ask if you plan to "grow a pair" and to "do something about it." I see your nation has all of 21K NS, so it seems as though your lads in uniform will need to add a significant amount of NS to your nation to "do something about it" with mine, or you'll have to call in someone to do your work for you, since you seem to be writing checks you can't cash. Xiphosis could lend you some tips in that regard, talk with him about how he keeps on keepin' on. Of course, should you and anyone in your alliance or set of allies seek to engage in GODlike behavior, well... perhaps one shouldn't go down that road... But I have no issue with you personally or anyone in the Kingdom of the Mush Rooms, beyond that of MK entering into an ambiguous situation, hoping to resolve that ambiguity for its own advantage. Pardon me as I wag my finger, but do naught more on the matter. Good day, sir. [/quote] First of all, sit down and shut up. The amount of hot air you're spewing is hurting the ozone. Secondly, you can call me the basest, say I'm forcing judgment and whatever, but it's a circular argument. You're doing the exact same thing here. Next, let's discuss my "shut up and bring it" remarks. If I was morally outraged at something, I would do something about it, but you're not worth the time, and I genuinely like Schattenmann and wouldn't attack anyone in his alliance. Finally... are you saying I'm scared of homosexuals? I'm not really sure how that came up even.

[quote name='Vanilla Napalm' timestamp='1328072335' post='2912279'] Hide yo' nations and bring out yo' keyboards, the communal clackity clack will save our world. Did anyone else imagine Bill Donohue with a monocle? [/quote] To be honest, he lost me at "basest."

[quote name='Guzalot' timestamp='1328072214' post='2912272'] Let it be known that all posts by myself are my own views and do not necessarily (and probably don't) reflect the views of NPL. Having said that, I am done in this thread. [/quote] Finally a teaspoon of sense.

[quote name='zzzptm' timestamp='1328071978' post='2912264'] Lashing out in violence against an enemy is the basest and least effective means of resolving a dispute. The dispute is resolved only so long as one's might prevails. The dignity of the non-violent resolution is that it preserves one's enemy for a future in which he has a chance to mend his ways. But go on with your sophomoric homophobic line of reasoning... everyone loves a bully with spunk! [/quote] Leave the fancy words to my buddy Schatt. He does it with much more style.

[quote name='Guzalot' timestamp='1328071789' post='2912255'] Yeah, I (single nation nation) will declare war on an entire alliance. THAT will prove the rightness of my cause! Ummm... yeah... [/quote] Several individual nations have done this very thing in the past. You are simply a coward who talks big but has no way to back up his words.

[quote name='Guzalot' timestamp='1328071514' post='2912245'] I am. [/quote] With meaningless words and reposting the same thing over and over? Grow a pair and fight for your beliefs. If you can't back up what you say, you're little more than a child squabbling over what the big kids are doing.

[quote name='Guzalot' timestamp='1328071140' post='2912232'] yeah so... MK is attacking mothers in crisis that are going through RL issues for OOC reasons. Because they're warriors... or something [/quote] If it offends you, do something about it.

Good luck, Combine. Godspeed.

[quote name='blueski' timestamp='1326693481' post='2900728'] Most of the active original members left to join a war that was personally important to them and that the alliance wasn't participating in, Sagha, rrl92, and 1wolf included. I don't see anyone on the list of reformers who were chronically inactive aside from Blackbeard. [/quote] Most of them left because they didn't want to be a puppet of a certain alliance. The rest refused to become active when an attempt was made to restructure and rebuild the alliance. I promise you, I'm not making this up.

[quote name='Blacky' timestamp='1326687049' post='2900659'] So what happens if the other ex FoB members decide they want to reform as well? Do they... reform on the same AA? [/quote] Don't think I haven't considered it.

I just find it funny a bunch of people who either left in the middle of a war or who wouldn't answer alliance-wide calls to become active and help the alliance survive the first time would reform the alliance they didn't seem to care about the first go 'round.

Welcome back.

[quote name='Crushtania' timestamp='1324095046' post='2880273'] Glad to know Archon is still suffering from his chronic relevance deprivation. o/ MHAil, until victory! [/quote] It's always funny to see one of these posts because it makes the irrelevant party relevant.

[quote name='Lusitan' timestamp='1324011746' post='2879584'] I honestly can't believe people keep using this line as if it made any sense. [/quote] It makes perfect sense to those who need to sleep at night.

[quote name='ROMMELHSQ' timestamp='1324011282' post='2879560'] MHA must have offered MK a lot of tech to take the ghost-busting contract. I'm sure MK will do a fine job. [/quote] Don't worry. Shrooms are still getting it.

This has been a good day.

[quote name='Anysound' timestamp='1323715917' post='2875376'] I, Anysound of Azkaban, do not approve of this. [/quote] The REAL victim here.

And so the tides of battle turn...

[quote name='rsoxbronco1' timestamp='1323564418' post='2873019'] I think it's probably a good thing that alliances don't act every time they've been wronged. [/quote] You're right. I mean, I feel wronged every time (insert almost anyone on OWF ((yes, including me))) posts.

[quote name='Gibsonator21' timestamp='1323323790' post='2868660'] There's two other Maroon alliances out there, ya know. [/quote] We're more than aware.

[quote name='NoFish' timestamp='1323323215' post='2868621'] You're not particularly happy with it, so you're going to embroil two alliances in the conflict who had no reason to be involved. They gave no indication of their neutrality - aside from, of course, the fact that they hadn't entered the war - until after people were made aware that you going to attack them? So, once again. Is it the responsibility of an alliance to report their neutrality to the Doomhouse Hegemony or risk being rolled? [/quote] It was pretty common practice years ago to say if you were neutral in a major conflict, man. It's all over the archives.

[quote name='EViL0nE' timestamp='1323322709' post='2868570'] "This is how you conquer maroon" -Leet Guy con·quer/ˈkäNGkər/Verb: Overcome and take control of (a place or people) by use of military force. [/quote] You know, you're right. Color politics are alliances working together within a sphere, presumably to make it better. And I feel that's what we're doing here.

[quote name='Jonathan Webb II' timestamp='1323322489' post='2868544'] how does it feel to once again attack alliances for no reason at all?? thank you for destroying this game. . .we were all getting bored with it anyway [/quote] Yes, the very fabric of Planet Bob has been torn asunder. There is no longer a g-... Wait. Yes there is.

[quote name='EViL0nE' timestamp='1323322389' post='2868535'] Tell that to the MK posters talking about how to properly clear off Maroon in this very thread. [/quote] There is a difference between working within a sphere to make it better and declaring on a bunch of alliances on that sphere in an effort to "clear off" the color.

[quote name='Azaghul' timestamp='1323322125' post='2868514'] I know it makes good propaganda but does anyone really believe that these alliances weren't in the wings for the polar side here. [/quote] Get Comms to make the propaganda. Let's get ahead of this one.
