  1. My nation is going to be gone in a few hours and it looks like i'm a few days late to the party.

    Never the less, regardless of where I went, I was and always will be Polar at heart. You guys have an extremely strong community, the strongest i've been apart of. Its kept me playing this game LOOOONG past my expiration date, and for that I thank you.

    I hope you don't mind, but I'll be spending my nation's final hours flying your AA

    on final time: O/ Polaris

    also, it is all Random's fault

    So your protection isn't defined except for where it is (ie ends when everyone moves)

    I know it seems like I'm being pedantic, but in treaties this is definitely the one place where you are supposed to be. I'm fairly sick of running around asking alliances with "indefinite protections" if those are still in effect.

    You could always, ya know, stop tech raiding.


    Congrats to TIO for bringing friends closer and increasing their stats in one move!

    It's clear this guy isn't incredibly active on the OWF. He's here trying to offer advice... and it's good advice, too. Does everyone seriously have to be such dicks? A simple "Yeah. Ishabad sucks." would have sufficed.

    Thank you, Chaos. Ishabad does, indeed, suck, and I hope someone who doesn't know that will see your post and find out for themselves.

    I agree with this terrible, terrible person :smug:

    Let's not forget NPO. NPO made several requests for government terms, some of which we granted. One of these was the demand that Grub be replaced by Griswalds, a term that Grub rejected and that the coalition did not push, but one which members of Polar nevertheless found very reprehensible. When your terms were up, you signed with NPO immediately.

    As for FARK, they made very clear that they would defend any ODP partner from any attacks they found unjustified. They certainly noted that the ODP upgrade was intended to protect Polar from TOP, IRON etc. You claim that you never became especially close with them is not true.

    Too, whatever the case of the alliances whom you chose to hold a grudge against, you inexplicably condensed them down to TOP alone. Perhaps this was an at self-delusion, such that you wouldn't need to admit that you'd so pissed off the word that alliances from just about every other sphere in CN attacked you. Whatever.

    Double standards ftl. Like I said, we seem constant warping of the truth by members of Polar (amongst others) for the purposes of their arguments. Given how transparent and obvious it is, I don't know why they bother.

    Pacifica is a terrible example here. Neither alliance wants anything to do with the other. That treaty was signed more bc of history than anything else. If that's your go to example of polar being friendly with someone, maybe you're trying just a bit too hard.

    Also he never claimed that the "never became especially close" with dark. He stated that the treaty has never gone higher than and odp and that took a lot of diplomatic work to get it there.

    Face it polar never truly put its best foot forward to repairing things with TOP but you guys didn't exactly extend any olive branches either. Had the 2nd patriotic war not happened perhaps things would have stayed on a positive curb for both alliances, the past is the past.

    Guys give Roq a break. He'll be here when he's here.

    Problem is when you say "I'm going to drop a game changer of a log dump" and you're actually someone who may actually have that information, like say the former leader of a premier alliance that was involved in cn,mpeople tend to set their calendars.

    Promptness is a virtue sorely lacking in this world :(

    Again, seven alliances and NPO (who made several of the government change requests that were granted by the victors and laid out as terms) are suddenly condensed down into TOP for the convenience of a flawed argument. Yes, the same NPO with whom Polar signed a treaty immediately after completing their WotC surrender terms. And also FARK, who took reparations from Polar and were completely OK with the government-related terms. You and yours can try all you want to make it seem as if TOP was the responsible party for everything that happened to Polar during the WotC, but really it's just a convenient and very flawed argument by which you can attempt to justify your alliance's betrayal of ours (and of IRON, TORN, etc.) in the Bipolar War. Give it up already. Nobody is stupid enough to buy this. Or maybe you've just truly deluded yourself into thinking that it's the truth. This would not surprise me, as self-delusion is a hallmark of your alliance.

    Also, the allegation that the coalition was attempting to destroy Polar's community is absurd and has no basis whatsoever.



    The idea that IRON was only in this war to support TOP is completely wrong. They entered this war for the same reason we did. You forget that your alliance screwed over IRON in Bipolar almost as much as you did TOP (with the declaration of war on TOP being the added cherry that IRON didn't need to deal with). Telling yourself that only TOP was after revenge and IRON was not is just another example of the constant self-delusion that is apparently such a vital part of your alliance's character.

    I had actually forgot that pacifica was integral in those, thanks ;) top and co (is that better buddy?) tried to destroy a community you can not deny this and you can't pretend like you didn't smile handing out those terms. All the other Major players from that war have since paid their price. TOP has avoided the hammer by masterfully jumping from ruling power to ruling power. One day the rule powers will tell you to take a flying leap, and I can only hope I'm still around to dance on your corpse when that happens

    Xoxox

    You know, banning people from government offices isn't exactly the same as "destroying a community", unless it's a very small alliance and they absolutely rely on three or four figureheads. We also have addressed that so many times in the past it feels like beating a dead horse at this point.

    Oh I'm not concerned with the legitamacyn or lack thereof of said claims, but that was most certainly enraged us the most. It was more than just bannin people from gov too, but you are right about one thing, dead horses and such.



    Id like to imagine tha polar and top can at least coexist now, but I just don't see it...

    The wotc or aka war of the coalition, electron sponge kept poking at TOP and friends for months, "Saying he was going to dance on TOP's grave" So TOP gathered a coalition and declared on Polaris, their MOD had 11 million on him to start the war :lol1: , and afterwards Polar cried about TOP having bigger nations, more tech and bigger war chest.

    Actually I think they were more enraged with the secret terms top had levied against them in an attempt to destroy the community and drive away some of our more beloved members.

    Londo speaks the truth?

    I remember the... vast networks NPO ran.

    Of course, you will never be able to get anyone to admit to the spy networks they ran, with spies in every alliance worth its salt at the time.

    What do those operations have to do with you betraying alliances trust? Oh right nothing but hey it's a distraction right?
