  1. As somebody who actually knows what happened this is really bad. NG/NSO were trying to remove Polar SPECIFICALLY because NPO wouldn't go after MK. Therefore to lessen MKs chance of building with xx they decided to attack them. Sadly it was the worst formed coalition I've actually ever seen, by quite some margin.

    The NpO/TOP treaty likely never happens if NG/NSO don't target Polar for no reason other than it's an easy win. Everything after that is simply pieces falling into place. NPOs only blame was being too passive in the recent months and I'd fully expect that to change now.

  2. Disliking MK and disputing their accomplishments are two different things entirely. I'm not going to dispute the MK has been widely successful in the last several years. That's a given, and any look at the 3-4 wars prior to Eq will prove that.

    On the other hand: while on their road to success, many of their members, particularly the public voices, were some of the more distasteful individuals to play this game ranging from OOC attacks to being general !@#$%bags. I assume you never really got an opportunity to gain that kind of understanding, considering it was your alliance enabling such actions, but that's aside the point.

    Like I said, I won't take away from MK's accomplishments, but any objective look at the way they carried themselves screams "We're scummy people!"

    Yeah, Crymson wouldn't know anything about MK screwing him over.

    Nobody gives a $%&@ about TDO, people just want to get in their free shots against MK.

    QFT... apart from the free bit :)
  3. As a former TOP ally they were the only ally MK had that actively came to them with things outside of NG. And TOPs things were actually usefull and interesting.

    It partly a case of a dying game that people are bored with. You can be leader of an alliance being on 4 days a week for 3hours a time. A few years ago you could barely be a deputy in FA with that kind of activity. Another major factor is the opsec culture, brought about partly because people are actually good at leaking intel now & partly due to everybody knowing everybody. It's a shame though because it's a part of what kept the game interesting.

  4. I find it ironic that you're using reps YOU YOURSELVES imposed as propaganda. The fact you extorted FEAR for defending us, and you're using that to somehow boost your case is hilarious.

    Secondly, do not concern yourself with our relations with TOP. There is a small of handful of alliances still bleeding beside us as we fight for survival, and they're one of them.

    Finally, mhawk beat me to it, but it seems the majority of commenters here don't know the history of the "NUTS" comment.

    First of all. FEAR didn't "defend" TORN, they attacked CnG on a OPTIONAL agression pact.

    Secondly, the image sunstar used was to show how ludicrous your offer was, and his post in general was showing quite clearly that TOP aren't willing to step up and take the mess that THEY created on their shoulders. Instead they're forcing allies to pay far more proportionally than themselves.

    Finally, i thought the NUTS thing was stupid for obvious reasons, but after reading the past few pages i've been proven wrong. Godamn you guys dont know when to leave stuff alone.

  5. I'm not sure why people keep using the 'NPO did worse' line. In terms of reparations the NPO never went anywhere near that astronomical figures we see today. The last major war before Karma, where MK unloaded its entire nuclear arsenal against the NPO before receiving peace, saw terms worth a total of 82k tech (of which 58k went to the NPO) -- less than a quarter of what is being demanded of TOP here.

    Ignoring the massive inflation and size differences as per usual...

    Oh and Ejay, Feanor posted before the amsg went out :)
