Monster Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 [quote name='Schattenmann' timestamp='1326898206' post='2902125'] I, too, often fall victim to this mistake And despite your elaborate overreaction to my wuthering spite, there they are: tied to NPO. People do what they want to do. They are now tied to NPO, if the don't want it, they'll cut the ties, but it's been several months, and they have not. But the idea that the detractors in this thread (me and Doitzel) are trying to "set NPO up for Karma 4.0" is--nothing personal, Seerow--retarded. Cult of Justitia has spent more time allied and cooperating with NPO post-Karma than any alliance except Invicta. The hyperbole from Charles and Seerow was dumb. Your disregard for the many, many attempts by alliances both in DH and PB to lure NPO into war during Cortath's administration when you say that "It was never PB/DH keeping NPO down at all," is also dumb. The very fact that the only serious replies in this thread are by Doitzel and I demonstrate the very opposite of your argument; there's nothing that says "welcome to our web" like a lock-step o/ army. [/quote] Oh, if that's your issue, that's fine. The red issue was mostly that NPO was trying to enforce an archaic institution and people like to raid. So when GOONS were told to stop, what did you think would happen? Keep in mind opposition to Polaris came from the same source. I assume the reason NPO is acceptable now to them is because they have dropped all pretenses of criticizing behavior they might have in the past and have adopted a hardline anti-Polaris stance, and Polaris is the NPO of 2010/2011.

King Chill I Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) [quote name='Brehon' timestamp='1326829587' post='2901601'] story [/quote] Had you insisted on the original terms (minus silly apologies) no one would have faulted you and, Fan and Fark would have come out looking dickish. Once lighter terms were offered it its ridiculous to retract them and then come here and !@#$%* about FAN/FARK not accepting. Mary should have gotten a clue, seen the light of what you had done, and gone with it instead of taking a dump on it. Given how it worked out i see this more as your and Mary's (more hers) $%&@ up rather than the silly intransigence on the part of FAN/FARK that you try to paint. P.S. trying to give split peace to FAN (out of what you claim guilty) was also silly. P.S.S. overall though i completely empathize with your mentality on the idea of a new leaf and will consider NPO changed once someone like you is in charge.

Princess Doomee Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 [quote name='Beefspari' timestamp='1326897278' post='2902121'] Thank you for confirming that we're a different GOONs than those of past. Someone should do a direct side-by-side on terms for Fark then and now. [img]http://meru.xfury.net/images/aeris/aeriswutL1.jpg[/img] [/quote] No no no!

Daimos Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 FARK, look at the big picture. NPO is not your enemy. NPO does not want you destroyed. You are in this position on your own doing. Our real enemy is laughing at us. Accept the term as it stand (which is only asking you to admit what is already obvious to everyone) so we can all go on our business of rebuilding and preparing for the next war which hopefully would pit us with our true adversary. Decline the term and you will turn NPO to a true enemy for dragging this war further than it needs to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I bet you [i]think[/i] you know But really. Just know that this war particularly FARK and NPO are wasting their time and pixels on each other but if FARK decides to stop playing and this is how they want to go down (a meaningless war with an alliance that got no beef with them) then so be it.

Monster Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Actually, I was surprised IAA didn't cancel Polar over Legion. They should have and we could have avoided a lot of headaches. RoK too. Van Hoo told me he would have done it if he had been in charge. I guess Taut was just really bad.

Johnny Apocalypse Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Excellent work Brehon, with this log dump you've essentially made it so that Fark can now refuse to admit defeat and keep you locked in a war for as long as they want, should you decide to drop the admission of defeat it'll look weak-willed on your part and it'll be apparent that you were struggling to keep them at war. Congratulations on your Pyrrhic victory. Honestly if you wanted to levy reps on them you should've just done it instead of dumping logs to try and gather enough public support to get away with it and avoid a public backlash.
