AbysmalPea

Oppressing the NPO is still oppression, which is what a lot of people here fail to fully comprehend.

I remember... I remember everything.

I agree. It has a certain ring to it. Let's hope that no bad blood arises between both Vox's.

This is the best kind of bad guy.

I take back everything I said about giving NPO reasonable terms. Burn them to the ground. )):

The point of my statement was that karma does not only apply to the NPO and friends. Your source only confirms my assertion of karma being an impartial entity. Allow me to quote the article: "Every volitional action of individuals, save those of Buddhas and Arahants, is called Karma." Beyond this, you merely restated the position I was criticizing and insulted my intelligence, so I am unable to add more to this fine discussion as of this post.

This thread is a shining example of how to be hilarious.

The nearest thing in the English language that describes what you want is probably "vengeance." Oftentimes, justice and vengeance are mutually exclusive. I am quite aware of the history of the word "karma," and I know that karma is a natural process, an impartial concept; claiming to be a vanguard for this process is pretentious at best. What you and others fail to realize is that you are acting just like the monsters you so viciously condemn. What you and others fail to realize is that, while the leaders of NPO and friends may be reaping what they have sown, the seeds you will sow if you travel this path are not much different from theirs. But do not let me hinder your desires for revenge, Shylock.

I rescind my statement about Moldavi being a part of Karma. However, the rest of my statement still stands.

Quite right. Here's the corrected reps: - 466.7 tech to IS - 766.7 tech to TFO - 3.75 mil to IS - 11.25 mil to TFO

I did some math. If the notion of tech deals was discarded, these would be the equivalent reps: - 14 million to IS - 23 million to TFO - 125 tech to IS - 375 tech to TFO Make of it what you will.

Well don't I feel forgotten.

Funny. He seemed to be fighting alongside Karma alliances.

One cannot force the NPO to pay reparations for all damage done in the past without holding other alliances accountable. Will these prosecutors also bring Ivan Moldavi to trial? He certainly did not join Karma because he felt sorrow for his past deeds. Will they call for the blood of those who enabled the NPO's deeds? Those who call for such punishment are no better than those they are punishing, for no innocent party exists in this conflict. I am glad that the current leadership in Karma has more moral fibre than those who demand their pound of flesh, but I fear the day that these hypocrites gain power. Nay, strike that last statement. I look forward to when these hypocrites gain power. It will be just like the good old days.

Best surrender terms of the war, if only because of the discussion they're causing.

Well I, for one, am sincerely disappointed that one small alliance declared on us rather than a different small alliance. It makes such a huge difference.

Here's to shooting the moon.

I don't think your definition fits most people's versions of bandwagoning. Protip: Most people believe there needs to be a bandwagon for bandwagoning to occur.

Because what's happening here correlates directly to the connotation that accompanies the word "bandwagoning."

It's not like any other alliances formed under similar circumstances. Like being vastly outnumbered and leaving alliances to fight for personal honor.

Good luck out there. o/
