[/quote] That's at least twice now you've taken actual pride in comments on this subject that were obviously made in jest. I didn't read the first 9 pages so there might be more occurrences of this. Looking forward to hearing the follow-up on this thread about how MK has no mind of their own and we're all drones. Maybe MK are indeed the toadies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That when you all at MK see a thread with a poll, MK's members don't actually think for themselves, and instead just vote for MK like mindless drones. Don't like me pointing it out?

Alterego Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 [quote name='Krack' timestamp='1341877631' post='3007524'] You're not wrong. The lead spot on the coattails belongs to TOP. They had it all and now they can't do anything without MK; and it's pretty much entirely their own fault. Of all the named alliances, they'd have the most to lose if MK disappeared tomorrow. [/quote] I remember that fork in the road. Being part of the hegemony again was so tempting. I imagine when MK get theirs TOP will be looking to the next hegemony for company.

Though the WRSCC** has tried to "lol u r so irrelevant" your postings and use the "OMG mad much bro" type of memes, the fact of the matter is that these type of polls and threads do spark conversations in those "szrs bz channels". Keep it up and don't let the kids table bother you too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Kremlin Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) Someone makes a poll trying to score some cheap PR points against MK, and MK+co respond by strategically voting in a way that makes the results of the poll irrelevant. I don't see what the problem is, although I do like how people can say that MK tries to limit serious debate and that they're children that should be ignored in the same post.

[/quote] Cheap PR points against MK? Honestly, I think you missed the point of a lot of the discussion. I am not going to attest towards the OP's target of discussion, but people such as myself looked at this thread as an example of a collection of alliances being unambitious and not living up to their potential. Being completely content with following along with the MK marching orders and acting like they are serious role-players to the political canvas is pretty sad for some of the histories connected to those alliances. Though some it has become expected, others just really leave a lot of room for disappointment. MK should get props for managing to contain all the potential in their hand and convincing those alliances that it is better to sit at the table then to be the head of it.
