Spaarlaamp Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) [quote name='Ernesto Che Guevara' timestamp='1333009161' post='2944912'] Correction: You attacked several of their nations. When we were at war. They attacked back. That's how wars work, darling. [/quote] The two main words to remember are: [i]after peace[/i] [quote] Our diplomatic relations with NEW are fine. Thank you for the unwarranted attention. I assure you we can handle this "Alliance" thing fine without your help. You're more than welcome to try leading one yourself, but we all saw what happened with FEAR when you did that. [/quote] You mean when FEAR won a war and had 30 more members? Yeah that was awful. But this is all terribly off topic. [quote] To get back on topic here, why does it matter if Umbrella declares, anyway? It's not like they can bring a whole bunch of nations to bear on Kaskus/Mongols, they're just covering what GOONS can't. Kudos to Kaskus and Mongols for sticking it out this long, though. You guys certainly have some guts, although I doubt anybody didn't know that already. [/quote] Agreed. Edit: I'm sorry NoName for misunderstanding you.

berbers Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I think we can all agree that GOONS bit off more than they could chew and then ran to big bad Umb/MK to bail them out. You can qualify that statement with "but NS ranges, etc, etc." but the fact is GOONS wasn't able to follow through on it's own raid/reps policies without backup. So they aren't really GOONS policies, but DH policies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yup, this man is right, we did not have them crushed within weeks and they did not gain huge amounts of NS in the form of 40k+ nations, nope didn't happen, conspiracy to make it look like goons are fine and not being defeated by the mongol/kaskus menace.

We made you eat your "we will never pay reps" words. As to all the "you needed help" idiots, the vast majority of the war is being fought by GOONS nations. We would fight to enforce our policies regardless of how much support we received. Moreover, it's patently obvious that professional alliances figured out ages ago that calling in assistance where needed is nothing to be ashamed of. It's no wonder why so few of the people making these asinine remarks do so from a position of experience.

MutedFaith Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) If 'calling in assistance when needed' is nothing to be ashamed of, why is an alliance like Kaskus being punished for 'assisting when needed'? And what's with all the butthurt comments about ex-NEW nations joining Kaskus? [quote name='denkimon' timestamp='1333020293' post='2944956'] Oh, there it is.

Pingu Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 [quote name='Iherudia' timestamp='1332904828' post='2944018'] I prefer an agreement which is at least marginally agreeable to both sides. Forgive me if that's too idealistic for you. [/quote] Hippy. I fear I dozed off somewhere during this conversation - getting old does that - but when I came round again it seemed the argument hadn't advanced much. I believe the summary is something like: - all parties to the war are bringing in small amounts of assistance as needed, by various mechanisms, declared and undeclared, and they're all pretty much cool with that; - negotiations are happening intermittently and will probably wind this up quite soon; - rabble rabble rabble Did I miss anything of substance?

Steve Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Seems a bit unnecessary when GOONS has 25 nations bigger than the NEW ghosting Kaskus.

More practically it means 'you knew what was going to happen when you attacked us'. But as we agree on the probability of them ever actually paying, this is all academic, no? As an aside, I see now you meant reps as the punishment, where in my previous post I thought you meant the Umbrella helping out as the punishment (given that that is what this thread is about).
