[/quote] I wouldn't be too hard on the guy; I mean, why would anyone think that it was ok for this half of the world to attack GOD, but not anyone else? Who would be sitting around a war room watching GOD get wrecked and think "Woah, woah, better not attack GOD with any more alliances." No one, that's stupid, it makes no sense. So, cut the guy that made the bum call some slack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Stuart Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 [quote name='TRON IX' timestamp='1323922613' post='2878395'] Wires were crossed. Evidently the memo did not circulate throughout the ranks. Our Mil leader went on Vacation and a mistake was made by the person who stepped in (by sending Neb-X in on GOD instead of another target). VE had made their stance clear to us. This was indeed an error. As soon as the DoW was posted, NEB-X was immediately asked to back off and not to further declare or attack. I hope VE can accept this as an error and will allow NeB-X to peace out as they are innocent in this mistake. [/quote] Are you serious?

Don't get me wrong, I'm pleased to have been invited to this exclusive party. (We promised to bring our world famous sandwiches No doubt that made the difference). For instance, I heard things from people who heard things but I only got my best confirmation of what happened from chatting with a member of GOD - after the war started. So, if the powers that be decide to deal, might want to directly inform the rest of us. Yeah, I know someone might then decide to test it - but that's life on our planet. At least then no one can claim they were not told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phaedron Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 [quote name='Delta1212' timestamp='1323922955' post='2878407'] I'm... actually not sure that anything VE has done warrants the reaction they're getting. I can think of a number of alliances who probably do warrant this type of reaction for the way they behave, but they seem to be among the most critical of VE right now. [/quote] Ahhhh RIA... the voice of reason on Bob. Did you happen to see their DoW on my alliance through two Ghost DoWs? And to think, I used to consider statistics boring. Let's go to the boards: VE: 237 Total Nations App: 71 Total Nations VE: 7,926,341 Total NS App: 2,809,269 Total NS So I mean, if VE's double-jumping a set of treaties through ghost wars to attack an alliance about 1/3 their size and power when we are already engaged with GATO isn't blatant opportunism, then I really dunno what is. I have no ill will towards GATO for asking for help -- we've been a pain in their butt. However, something tells me VE was all too eager to enter into a war they think they can easily win, both in the case of my alliance, and with the DoW here. It shows a pattern of not wanting to engage at the higher levels. Don't worry though VE, The Apparatus will not be backing down any time soon... what we lack in nukes (compared to you guys), we make up for in steam-powered Gatling guns Best of luck to Nebula-X on their front.
