Monster Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) I don't really understand why the people who are offering congrats don't notice the others doing the same like GOONS and MK lol also yes. Saniiro, I'm sure do nothing Tonberry "mental and social handicaps" King Archon would sign it at a drop of a hat. In addition: Let's look at it objectively: what do NPO and TLR actually share in common? It appears to be another "idle talk" treaty.

bakamitai Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 I'm glad to see this finally posted, because it gives me a chance to publicly thank TLR gov for being such great people these past several months. Here's to a bright future together! o/ TLR o/ NPO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Um, Prodigal Moon hit the mark closest. TLR has plenty of enemies, so why not I guess? As for NPO's sphere, I doubt everyone's happy about this, especially the alliance TLR deemed incompetent, NATO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) The fact that TLR and NPO are nothing alike, really. Oh, for the other claim, MK has offered NPO a treaty in the past.

Mandellav Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 TLR is not Athens. Even the Athenians can't stand how unlike Athens TLR has turned out to be. And now AirMe and I are 2/3 of the Triumvirate that gives TLR its direction. I don't remember ever being in Athens and come on, AirMe is a moralist TLR is its own enigma. Deal with it. And I am so happy that this upgrade could finally be announced. This friendship is not idle at all. NPO and TLR share the common believe that defending our allies is the paramount foreign affairs objective. The cultures work well together, the beliefs coincide, and leadership of both alliances are not afraid to talk bluntly and honestly. TLR gov is not afraid to talk directly to the Body Republic and Brehon is in constant contact with the TLR membership. This is a deep bond built on true friendship. As for you distaste for this treaty my ODN friend, trust me when I say that I know NPO is not out to betray us or join CnG or try to reinstate the awful hegemonic crimes it committed all those years ago. The world would not let them for one and the drive to do so died out long ago within NPO for another. Thank you to all of our allies for giving us this opportunity and trusting us on this one. We will not let you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) I don't really care about it being about me. I cited someone else posting a similar sentiment. I love the traditional deflection of the DH milieu coming out in full force. Learn how to argue. You can pretend this is Scottie Pippen posting or something. The fact that it was going to be an MK/NG/GOONS/C&G, ETC. circlejerk if I didn't post is something else. Edited March 4, 2012 by Roquentin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm formerly from Athens and I have joked with Cortath (when he was NPO emperor) in the NPO embassy on the Athens forums about Athens and NPO signing an MADP treaty.

Brehon can be quoted on air as saying he liked what FARK did because it gave NPO a war they'd been wanting. The attack was FARK's prerogative. They paid for it. But I never whined about their tactical decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) Yes, that's why an apology was demanded for a while. Everyone made a big deal of it being a preemptive attack because it'd get more people on the front, essentially. Otherwise, it's just an ODP partner being hit.
