TrotskysRevenge Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 [quote name='Kalasin' timestamp='1303617444' post='2698209'] No, actually, I'm one of the founders of Red Dawn who decided to give NPO another chance and came to really like you and your alliance. When I joined NPO, I found out that you had simply used me, like you're using Schattenmann, and had no respect or liking for me. Thus why the 'you're just closed-minded!' retort doesn't really work here, and why I'm cynical when you claim to respect Schatt. You'll never trust someone who associated so closely with Electron Sponge. [/quote] Right. Whatever you say. I think the operative word here is "associated," past tense, as in over two years ago.

Sorry for being harsh, but you need to grow a pair and stop taking being kicked out as if it's psychological torture. All these elaborate schemes of people being "used" and "manipulated" and "thrown away" are !@#$%^&*. We have better things to do with our time than playing silly mind games with random people, and the Order has repeatedly proven perfectly capable of welcoming former enemies into its ranks.

Wonnilon Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Oh my god! The ODN is like that? Really? Seriously? I almost came in my shorts but when I didn't see my name up there, I was disapoint. Shatt, Yawoo or whovever from CoJ, just come out of peace mode and we'll have some fun!

SADeki Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 [quote name='Choson' timestamp='1303613843' post='2698164'] I know talking about "being in peace mode" is passé, but when an alliance of eighteen has only two members not in peace mode, they can hardly be doing an "alarming" rate of damage. Especially since they started out as an alliance of thirty-two. [/quote] Wait, they were at 32 at the start of the war?

Even so, I don't doubt that Schatt's small-but-well-learned-in-the-art-of-war group is doing sustained damage to any ODN nations that get thrown into the meat grinder. Perhaps not "alarming" damage, but enough to keep ODN on their feet. Edited April 24, 2011 by Hadrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Janova Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 It wasn't really worth blowing your spies' cover for this. (OOC: Also, your Photobucket account is out of bandwidth.) Selling tech to an alliance at war is assisting its war effort, though, for sure. Aren't ODN whining about people buying tech from Methrage over in another thread?
