foxfire99 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I think I see what's happening here. NG is trying to set a record for most wars declared in a year. Good luck guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EViL0nE Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 [quote name='Yevgeni Luchenkov' timestamp='1320769879' post='2841681'] Digging a bit deep, brother. [/quote] The last global war is a bit deep? Really? I'm not (personally) criticizing this announcement or the way PC or iFOK's gov handled the NEW-Fark shenanigans. I have no evidence that either did anything outside of what they have publicly stated, so I'll take them at their word. What I was pointing out was merely that kriekfreak said this announcement would only be hypocritical if they had found fault in others making such declarations when in fact one of their triumvir had mocked another alliance for making such declaration in the last big war. Personally, I think that this protocol should become the standard for all wars. If you ghost (or "join at a time of convenience just long enough to enjoy the current war") an alliance during active war and your alliance ends up losing, the alliance who wins should have the right to handle those people however they deem worthy.

Ogaden Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 [quote name='King Xander the Only' timestamp='1320769769' post='2841678'] Those that left PC to fight ceased to be members and had to deal with the repercussions of their actions. Though many did end up joining PC again later on, they had to go through the regular admissions process. [/quote] Ah yes making him triumvir over NG is an appropriate punishment I suppose.

Failure to put individual terms on zoom lays with the offended alliance not with the home alliance. How does that make zoom less appropriate to be one of NG's leaders? Does that make him less qualified in running an alliance? I personally would say no, on both accounts. It does not make him less appropriate or qualified.

[/quote] Really, this is something that the other side should deal with. That said, having made it a clear written precedent here, NG have absolutely no ground to stand on to complain if they have members ghost other alliances and the alliance they're fighting against treats them as rogues (i.e. doesn't include them in the normal peace process). I hope alliances which may be considered 'on the other side' from NG are bookmarking this thread. However, the policy itself is reasonable, and I hope more alliances adopt it. Ghosting to join a war is quite low. Also, I hope it doesn't apply to people who legitimately apply to and are accepted into the alliance, which is a different thing.

[/quote] That's the trick. How do you differentiate? Do they have to remain members for at least x days after the conflict to be considered really a member? Otherwise, this policy is pointless as you only need to "join" the alliance (according to what are you joined? According to your stated affiliation in this forum? The privileges granted by the host alliance in their private forums?) until the peace treaty is signed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
