WorldConqueror Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 [quote name='Thalayk' timestamp='1349282165' post='3037029'] FAN used to be a powerful and respected alliance.

The only time they have been used as a pinata since then is when they launched an aggressive war. They have had plenty of time to recover from VietFAN, yet have failed to do so. It's about time that people stopped seeing them as the alliance that wrecked Legion along with TOP in 2007, or the alliance that was ground to dust in 2007-9, but as they are here and now in 2012, a failing alliance that has to scream that NPO is going to attack them to garner any kind of attention.

[/quote] Hiding in peace mode and staging largely psychological guerrilla strikes with reroll nations for three years before coming out with a decimated (actually, quite beyond, if you take the original meaning of the term) membership level in reaction to a massive group of alliances achieving what FAN never could. I've always admired the FAN of old. I really wish they had won against NPO, and I fully believe NPO has effectively paid pennies on the dollar for what they've orchestrated during the years, but let's call a spade a spade.

[/quote] A massive group of alliances can't be compared to one alliance. Of course they will be more effective. Would you hide in peace, reroll constantly, and fight for three years if attacked? No. When MK attacked TOP, you guys surrendered then allied them. You literally cannot ever bash FAN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
