The Trail

Good move.

Reform that flag

I approve of this message

4 years? NG doesnt even exist that long lol

When can I expect the TGE drama to come back again? well aside from the small drama above

I don't know where you are pulling that out of (ass perhaps?). I was just regular member for a month and now got into gov and I can't say that much goes behind closed doors the GA has any need or interest to know. Of course there are certain matters that must be handled in private as anyone with half a brain understands though.A regular member that was a leader in INT a while ago. Thats the difference between someone who joined CN a month ago compared to you who has been in CN for uh well I assume years?I hardly see what that has to do with the openness of ODN governance though. I didn't have any special access to the gov sections in ODN boards before getting elected even if I am an ancient member of CN community.True enough that I might have easier time grasping matters than a new player but that doesn't mean the new player doesn't have the equal chance to put things together in his head as I did. It doesnt but where you have credentials new players have none. Since you have proven yourself to be a better canidate then someone who just recently joined you have more chance. As would anyone else who posts here. Hell if schattenman joined ODN he would have more chance. Its about experience and recognition versus none and a nobody

[quote name='NOMNOMNOM' timestamp='1304297481' post='2703555'] He sent a mass ingame pm saying that he would declare war on them if they did not stop tech dealing. NOMNOMNOM reporting in for $#@!poster of the ODN [/quote] He didn't, he warned the leader of TFE that tech dealing is a valid CB. There is a difference. Also you should seriously stop posting. Your alliances reputation, credibility and whatnot would improve if you did. [quote name='ChairmanHal' timestamp='1304300183' post='2703596'] The ODN you feel sorry for doesn't exist anymore. "No more mister nice guy." The funny part is that they think that they are something better. In some ways they correct...in others quite the opposite. [/quote] Indeed There was a time I liked ODN. That love stopped a few months after the maccers incident and when they backstabbed IRON in one war. (or left to dry I should stay) [quote name='Louis Balfour' timestamp='1304302356' post='2703640'] When you tell our protectorate 'We consider tech dealing with the ODN and act of war', the implicit [i]threat[/i] is that 'if you don't stop tech dealing with the ODN, we will attack you'. When you threaten our protectorate, explicitly or implicitly, there are consequences. End of story. [/quote] The way I see it he only warned them. He barely threatened them For educational purposes: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/warning http://www.thefreedictionary.com/threat In the end I guess its up to interpertation of the individual but schatt was pretty simplistic when he mentioned it. Its not like it was a gunpoint warning

[quote]we are loyal friends with a good community who are not interested in torturing our enemies or anything other than honorable wars.[/quote] the first one made me laugh. Im pretty sure there are a few alliances who disagree. the second point also made me laugh. (it relates to the first point) [quote name='OsRavan' timestamp='1304285618' post='2703381'] And RV (or whoever), can you imagine the storm Schatt would have kicked up if anyone in DH had dared to act as he has done? Can you imagine if say, MK had mass messaged applicant AAs to get them to switch sides, infiltrated spies, threatened protectorates (yes he did do that), attempted to influence elections, pass themselves off as gov of another alliance? I honestly think we would have seen him rending his clothes and pulling clumps of his hair from scalp as he crawled across the OWF ranting about a New Hegemony. [/quote] havent seen any of the sort you describe in the post above other then saying to the TFE that tech trading during war can be seen as an agressive act (and it certainly is a valid CB) [quote name='Sardonic' timestamp='1304286050' post='2703385'] This is boring, do this week in GOONS already. [/quote] Agreed [quote name='supercoolyellow' timestamp='1304286301' post='2703388'] Now [i]that [/i]I would pay to see. 50 tech to whoever can make a legit IRON-ODN defense treaty happen. [/quote] As an Ex IRON member I doubt this wil ever happen.

[quote name='Mathias' timestamp='1304081227' post='2701895'] Why do people keep making alliances with xR1? He has a terrible track record. What's worse is that people keep protecting them. [/quote] Perhaps you should look at the alliance that is protecting him. They dont have a great track record either

[quote]we do have a good relationship with IRON and they've expressed their support in helping us rebuild.[/quote] I dont remember any hinting towards that when I was in IRON (and in the diplo corps no less) just this fact alone makes me thing the OP reaks of lies (and not being upper gov or a member who knows whats going on)

[quote name='Cataduanes' timestamp='1303759832' post='2699358'] Good to finally be alongside you UCR Nah man, Communsit better reflects our lazy approach to CN and life in general. [/quote] But republicans are evil!

Switzerland is actually majority German (that figure is only going up)

[quote]Communsit Republicans[/quote] you might want to edit the title

[quote name='deathman1212' timestamp='1303500128' post='2696877'] Yep. I was rather disappointed in this swift change of tune. [/quote] There is no-one stopping you from still getting at the people in thriller (past and current)
