DK-ODN MDoAP Preamble Recognizing our strong friendship, our common dedication to success, and to ensure the safety of both alliances from external attacks, the Orange Defense Network and Doom Kingdom agree to these terms of mutual defense. Article I Both signatories recognize that this pact is not a merger of the two alliances, and that both alliances will retain their full and complete sovereignty. Neither signatory shall take any action that could potentially infringe on the sovereignty of the other. Article II Both signatories recognize the importance of strong and constant communication both during war and peace and will remain in contact through IRC, forums, and/or other means of communication. If either signatory receives information detailing a threat towards the other (direct aggression, threat of war, espionage, etc.), they are obliged to inform them immediately. Article III Any direct attack on either signatory should be seen as an attack on both, and thus initiating the mobilization of both signatories' armed forces (this includes espionage and rogue attacks). Both signatories are obliged to provide military and financial aid to the other if requested. The signatories are not obliged to offer assistance should either signatory become involved in a conflict via treaties with other alliances or blocs. Either signatory may offer assistance in such an event but any assistance would be voluntary. Article IV If one signatory finds itself as an instigator in a conflict, the other party may join in if they feel the cause is valid, and the conduct just. Otherwise they may refuse services. Article V Neither signatory will take actions that could potentially damage the other. Neither will provide aid or sanctuary to an enemy of the other signatory regardless of their relationship with that enemy. Neither will engage in attacks, either through military or espionage, against the other and will work to resolve any disputes that may from time to time emerge between their respective members. Article VI If either signatory wishes to terminate these accords, they must provide the other with at least 72 hours notice, at which time both signatories will enter into discussions to determine if reasons for the termination can be resolved. If they cannot, the termination of the accords will proceed 72 hours from the date of announcement. Any violation of these accords is grounds for immediate termination, but discussion to resolve the problem is strongly encouraged.

And is your choice to also ignore all other comments a rhetorical device also? I defer to you on all matters henceforth, clearly.

I've tried to avoid this for a while (speaking here), but I guess my help is needed: 1. I think you mean quoted out of context, not misquoted. Misquoted pertains to an inaccurate representation of the represented utterance. Quoting out of context relates to portraying an unintended meaning through manipulation of the surrounding environment. You seem to be suggesting the latter given that the section later quoted by you is identical to the original. 2. The context of the post was clearly a response to the OP and not an attempt to suggest anything about WTF's general position. This was achieved by quoting a section clearly relating to ODN members' ability to interact diplomatically in response to an OP regarding that very issue. I shall in future do my best to remember my crayon.
