and yes you too you sexy sheep man

I recall a bit of that time .. yes after DH we started things anew ... as a matter of fact even before Brehon we realized that we needed to make changes in our FA policies. i can remember that when we signed with both NG and TLR that we knew that our allies would be skeptical and yes you all where asked to "give it a try". We had to do this cause we were accused of being the sleeping giant and if we remained doing what we where doing we would be accused of being up to something evil. During them changes at no time was there a though we would ditch TPF. The sentiment was to keep ya at our sides and due to what our past was. Even during DH when we were given the 3 week term and all we tried to get you exempt but you stood by our sides. Beleive me we wanted you. BUT as you mentioned when from that start of the NG and TLR signings things started to go downhill. IT was not a matter of us wanting to to shove you aside it was a thing were we decided to go one way you the other and that happens all the time It is just a natural progression of time. Judge i respect and will always have that heart spot for TPF for being with us for so long and by our side. But there comes a time when one has to sit and take responsibility for ones own desicions and realise wait maybe we helped in creating the discord and then accept the actions of them decisions then just move on. If there is one AA that knows that it is NPO ... Karma, DH and the last Order war. WE know we went through and we have moved on and continue to adapt and keep going. Oh and just to add to that ... When IRON/Top attacked Polar ... after we had signed with NG And TLR and NPO was PREMPTED by FArk/FAN .. what two alliances we the first to come to our aid ? and without asking.

By your own admission the falling out began by your choice. And even with that it continued with the next person in charge and so forth. With that in mind there were attempts to try and solve our issues . Which over time for whatever reasons just came to the point where it was felt that our relationship just was not were it was in the past. People move on simple. And yes maybe with different discussions as we mentioned before maybe things could of been better. But the fact is once you signed with MI6 it was determined we were heading in different directions and goals making it of no sense to continue forward at that point. You choose your path by your own admission and here we are today.

o/ Love the Red

Just for clarification ..was that ally of STA a ally of yours ?

!0 years is a long time to last .. congrats to ya all o/

Congrats to both of you

and you taught me everything i know

lol .. I know lol .. but it seems that the OP's here seem to be like a dating site... every one looks at the pictures instead of reading the profiles lol .. sorry Thrash .. set ya up for that one ... good luck on purple and i hope it works well for ya all

maybe you should explain or else it will go on and on lol

Statistics are one thing ... the human element are another. Honestly regardless whom the opposition is if the numbers were less it would be disappointing. If you knew NPOès culture at all we are ALL considered comrades. WE all are required to fight regardless of our postion within our culture. Our targets are not assigned as per a i like him or hate him basis. I would not be surprised as well if you look at the MI6 stats if we did not have the most wars as well and if not at least the top 2. Even myself i am sure i had 1 or 2 targets from TPF but that does not mean I had hate or resentment .. just means for that round they were the targets given. Heck if you talk to mirkusmc one of my last wars in that conflict he can tell you we had a conversation were i said to him i did not like having to war you guys but at the same time he and i went at it as we would of been expected to do respectfully. He was one of it not the best wars i had fought and had fun with him. At the end we wished each other well, It was not even a matter of who won or lost but we had respect for each other when it was over. You can keep going on and on and twist anything to perception. It is done everyday in this realm and will never stop. Statistics can always be analyzed and manipulated to ones own perception but no one can question the human element to something.

double post* oops

On the bolded ... yes we pre-empted and to be honest i would say that having the relationship we had that wold be us knowing that you are a very loyal bunch and regardless of any one wish you would have entered. In a way that is saying we had the respect for you and would think that we would get the jump on you. Pre-emps are a part of war.. IT has happened to us and others as well. As for the wording i totally agree .. it was not written with our past taken into consideration ( i may get in !@#$ for that stating ) and that is in a personal statement. I am would say there are others whom prob feel the same way and i would hope that maybe some of our Gov may have said something to you.THe rest memory i respect your thoughts and understand. I dont think it is just you or TPF that suffer from the inactivity. We aall wish that we could return back to even 5 years ago when the game still had some life. Maybe it is up to ourselves ... maybe by in some way contacting old players maybe to come and mentor or something .. who knows .. regardless i would rather be having these converstations than what was happening for most of this thread.

There ya go .. maybe someone will get it and move forward ..

I here ya there ... but as well what i said does not have to be you .. i agree some old timers have done their time and it is up to the newer generation step up. With that in mind mentoring them youngins works i would think .. ooc... good luck to the swim thing i hope your youngin does well.

Finally a post of sense. This is the old TPF that we had that good relationship with and thanks for saying yes to being partly to blame. The amount of blame even i can admit is particial to perception. We all get that. And believe me in saying TPF did mean a lot to us. Not as a meat shield as perceived but as a good ally that was loyal and stood by thick and thin. Personally when we cancelled on you I was one of the many from the older nations that did not like it one bit. Losing a good ally such s yourself is and was hard to take. I wish to this day we could work things out and become what we were. That will happen if it is meant to be but if it does not TPF will always be remembered personally as them whom one could depend on Even now seeing what TPF is doing is hard to take cause regardless of the future I had hope that you guys would take the energy you got now to be great agian. ( i Know dumb ass take off Trump) but that is the truth. It is unfortunate that you have taken this past as I know if done another way you could of maybe been that leader of the other side to rally a force against the current situation. We all choose a path ... NPO choose theirs and you choose yours. It is what it is and hopefully at some point we can all move on from it.

Seriously Thrash no one has won anything yet ... there is a theory for every problem there is a solution .... it is finding the way to the answer that makes the changes .. to put it oddly ... golf is a game to get the ball in the hole ... to find the hole you need to search for the best path to get to the hole in as few strokes as possible ... right now people are slicing the ball and giving up .. but with a change in your swing you can make the straight shot.

i second this

game always changes in some way .

Sure we have some that are inexperienced ... does not matter the age it is the effort at times depending on their role in NPO they have selected and chosen their growth rate. With that in mind I would like to think then you are our best friend in helping and mentoring these nations to become stronger and more defined in their skills so I salute you for that ..

Good luck ALonso and yes you have a fine protector in your stable o/

see them bold letters there ... WE ARE NOT ALLIES SON >>> WE BROKE UP OVER A YEAR AGO >>>> sorry to have to tell you ....
