Leerjet Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 [quote name='Skippy' timestamp='1334292564' post='2951875'] Fair enough, however was it necessary to bring in the whole bloc, rather than just bring in one more alliance that can handle the middle tier? Such as having either MK join in like I said, due to their middle tier, or have FOK actually commit more than two wars? Bringing the whole bloc for the two micros looks kinda embarrassing to me. I'd be keeping away from the diplomatic department if I were you Leerjet, you're not the best at answering questions without seeming like an ass. I asked a question because I wanted an answer, as I did not know the answer, hence the question. Sardonic seems capable of answering without being an ass, you should take note. [/quote] Was I trying to be a diplomat? No, I prefer being an ass. Considering you should know the answer to such a redundant question.

foxfire99 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 [quote name='Phineas' timestamp='1334292437' post='2951871'] Is there a more recent decree that addresses VE policy on tech raiding? On their forums I read now that tech raiding is still forbidden, except for military training. [/quote] We don't do it. However, how our allies entered into an alliance war is ultimatly irrelevant.

Phineas Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 [quote name='Roquentin' timestamp='1334292609' post='2951876'] That happens all the time, though. Do you think a lot of the NS that got on the Grub train to C&G station really cared about the FoA thing? I mean, plenty of anti-tech raiding alliances have gone to bat for tech raiders. Vice versa as well, BAPS in NpO-\m/ [/quote] It's still hypocrisy and a violation of their own charter writ quite large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True unity. [/quote] It's possible they dont follow the GOD playbook of letting everyone else wage meaningful wars while they fight UPN. I should note here that I think you post poorly.

Yevgeni Luchenkov Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 So, Umbrella and GOONS couldn't cover which tier, exactly? If it is the lower middle tier, as suspected, Mongols and Kaskus got a total of 10 nations that could qualify. I'm not against overwhelming firepower to prove a point. Let's just call a spade a spade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Enforcing others policy seems to be their raison d'État of late. The funny thing about multiple bloc memberships, is that no matter how "prominent" one is in their own bloc, they'll still be under obligation (or worse, subservient) via their blocmates to any of the adjoining blocs who possess greater global influence, and thus just an extension of the parent's reach and driven forward by their goals.

Kaskus/Mongols decided that they did not want to see the war reach a conclusion, and now it has become all of our business to conclude it. [/quote] I'm just a bit surprised that all of their nations have not yet been reduced to rubble, given the combined firepower of Umbrella and GOONS. The only [i]weak[/i] tier they possess is the middle tier; where they outnumber Kaskus-Mongols by a margin of nearly four to one. If they do not wish to surrender as it is - assuming all enemy nations are already being shelled (OOC: fully covered) - I fail to see what pressure PB will accomplish. They are already diplomatically isolated; they have nothing else to lose than what is already on the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Looks like Xiph's comments were aimed toward GOONS. Which is kind of similar to how Non Grata calls for his destruction. Overall though, VE has a habit of screwing over it's own allies and coalition partners. So it's just not out of their character to see such things. Are you going to answer my FOK question? Or are you going to ignore it, because you know the numbers don't support the bull !@#$ you're saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
