Vladimir Stukov II

No matter how you try to spin it I've been saying the same thing from the start. I see you are so opposed to me because you hate TOP for some reason. I, however, don't know enough about PC or RAD to have much of an opinion about them. So my reason for posting here is because of my disagreement with this policy.

My argument has always been that it's wrong to tell others HOW to raid when you yourself raid. Also, I doubt if anyone in TOP cares what your opinion of us is.

If all of the alliances on pink stopped raiding and then banded together to prevent others from raiding pink, I would support them. This, however, is nothing close to that. And yes, believe it or not, NPO does have a lot more power to implement a no raiding policy than PC and RAD have.

The difference is that NPO is actually trying to protect unaligned red nations. This policy doesn't protect unaligned nations, it's just a way for tech raiding alliances to feel good about themselves.

Yes, it has all to do with the chest thumping. I'm not even going to reply to your posts anymore since at this point you aren't even arguing the policy.

I just don't think it's a good idea to tell other alliances how they should tech raid. Good luck with this policy.

Last time I checked NPO doesn't tech raid and they protect red nations from ALL tech raids.

I also don't see anyone that's in opposition of this going around and interfering with other alliances tech raids. Yea, I just said I will.

If someone in my range goes unaligned in pink and I get approval from TOP, I will attack and nuke them.

I don't tech raid. If I did tech raid, I would nuke my targets if I felt like it. I wouldn't try to make myself feel good by saying my form of tech raiding is honorable. There is no type of tech raiding that can be considered honorable. Any way you look at it you are robbing some weak nation that can't fight back. I'm sure your victim is so grateful that you raided him with only ground attacks. This policy is idiotic because it attempts to say that tech raiding is ok with only ground attacks, but anything more makes it bad. Here is an idea for you guys. If you are so opposed to causing harm to the nation you are attacking, how about you STOP RAIDING THEM. If you continue to raid, nobody will take any anti-raiding policy you make seriously.

So you are going to attack large alliances if they decide nuking unaligned nations is fine? Who are you to police the world and decide what's ok and what's not? Also, when someone doesn't agree with your idiotic policy it doesn't make them a troll.

So basically you will be handling it diplomatically if the aggressor is in a large alliance or in an alliance allied to someone large. However, If they are in a small alliance with no political connections you will attack the aggressor. At least with Yellow #5 all aggressors were attacked regardless of their alliance. This just looks like a way for you guys to pick on smaller alliances.

If you think my post was trolling then take it up with the mods. And yes I am bored, but I'm not looking to feel important. I just thought this was an amusing announcement.

So if I were to cruelly raid a pink nation you guys would attack me? :lol: I will keep that in mind...

If my nation is still intact next year then you can count me in.

I'm sorry these joke threads are taking up your very important time that could be spent reading serious internet threads.

It's not a merge, it's a splinter group...

Hey I said it was for 12k+ infra nations. I don't expect everyone to save up that much money lol. That would just be stupid.

Well... I'm almost there so I need something to motivate me to save for that long . Maybe we can make a medal for people that buy infra every day or an activity award for those whose nation is never more than 2 days inactive.

These medals are nice, but we need something for the larger (12k+ infra) nations. How about an FSS badge or a 10 days of bills warchest ribbon?

Sweet, level 9 aircraft ribbon! I wear mine with great pride.

Well you are entitled to your opinion LB. I just don't think TOG should take anything we say right now to heart.

I think we all need to calm down a bit. I was enraged earlier when I first found out about this. I've had some time to reflect on it though and I think we all knew this was inevitable. So I would like to wish TOG the best of luck. The coming weeks and months will be very interesting for all alliances involved.

It's a completely new alliance. A merger has been in talks for months but there has been a lot of opposition especially from TOP. So those that wanted the merger decided to just go ahead and make a new alliance.

Nice flag you guys got.
