berbers Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 You're incredibly fickle and sensitive if that's the case. It was a tongue in cheek comment meant to highlight how his post was exactly what I was talking about :P It certainly doesn't make me want to be a greater advocate however.

Commander shepard Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) You know, in any scenario involving a global war, there is generally much debate. The prime movers of such an event are generally a handful of AA's that build a case to entice others who aren't committed or who don't care into joining the cause. Knowing this, it would be reasonable to assume that there are some people gunning for NpO/XX and they are feeling others out to the idea, but as the war hasn't happened yet and doesn't appear imminent, those discussions are most likely not concluded. So why post am I posting this? Its because you are writing your own demise. By shouting on the OWF about how unjust the upcoming beat down is, you just cement that beat down as a reality and your opponents just need to line up the dominoes. Change the story and maybe change the outcome? When you don't know what sticking to the story will do, changing the story and ignoring butthurt people doesn't make much difference in the eyes of your enemies as their butthurt will remain strong and still put pressure on their allies to join them. What you're saying is similar to a rule that I decided I will stick by even if it does not happen. When someone has captured you and perhaps tortured you, do not talk as they will most likely kill you anyway. However it is the opposite in this situation, do not stop talking as you will get attacked anyway.

Lurunin Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Ladies and Gentlemen...I feel there is a need for this to be it's own thread but it will do nicely here enough... Front Page News! The NpO has posted in a thread more than twice, and not only that but it's a thread concerning them, and there hasn't been a Polar v. Paradox war of words!

AlmightyGrub Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 So Polaris is in a bloc? Wow, nice grouping of the world's most despised alliances, this will make it easier than ever to target them. I am unable to justify that comment in any way because those alliances have always been despised and have always been loosely grouped together, so really nothing much has changed at all I guess but I hate all these alliance with a passion and I wish we had the courage and commitment to end them all, despite our best attempts these bastards just keep rebuilding and defying our best attempts to keep them down. I can hardly wait for someone else to get a party together so I can ride in on the back of the crowd to get me some damages. I am unable of course to do anything by myself at this time as I have a few good excuses saved up and to why I won't be leading the charge. I can not wait to get my shot at these guys though so I will bang on loudly to the cheers of my comrades of convenience and we can all celebrate our own greatness and establish the clever nature of our anti-social position whilst remaining the coolest kids on Bob. So congratulations XX/Polaris/some other random alliance, your goose is cooked, your gerbel is #$%^ and this time will be the last time that we will fight like this. Death or Glory or something other than either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamthey Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) I never really expected polar to ever sign up with a bloc of any composition ever again, but hey it has been awhile. Good luck to everyone.

Panic King Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) It is only a matter of time before NpO helps XX discover XXXX during XXX. Someone earlier mentioned that Polaris will be bringing a different outlook to the bloc; something Deuce Ecks will most likely benefit from as a whole, despite the obvious baggage it brings along. Now it's time to see if the reality meets the speculation. I suppose we shall be watching this space over the next six months. It's not amazing that there is so much anger thrown our way. The "Baggage" you are referring to was suppose to be ancient history if the rhetoric that your side propagated during the Grudge War was to be believed. "All debts paid" and "a clean slate".... sure....... There are always those that are going to hate and this thread shows the innate stupidity and lack of original thought that has stagnated CN politics for 6+years. At least Polar tends to shake it up a bit and in their day so did NPO. NG, VE and NSO need to grow up. Shed their diapers and start wearing Big Boy pants. It seems these 3 AA's are stuck in a rut politically. Good luck with that. edit.. not a math major Edited July 16, 2013 by Panic King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't actually think that is our latest crime in the perception NSO et al. Apparently we ruined their plans for world domination at the feet of Pacifica, sweet peaceful non-ambitious Pacifica, oh how I long for the days of Pax Pacifica. History would suggest NSO/NG are carefully pruning the reality tree so it grows some nice ''truth'' flowers, discarding all the flowers that just won't tell the same story. It is looking pretty bonzai about now, be lucky if it doesn't die of its own accord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dajobo Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 This discussion is comedy gold in places and even I laughed at grouping VE with NG and NSO! I recommend NSO use nappy cream and a premium brand of soft toilet paper to sooth that butthurt.There was a serious point made though about Polaris joining XX possibly altering the outlook of the bloc. I think that's a given. Any bloc is changed when a member changes and I know XX plans going forward are going to lead to some interesting times on Bob.

Honestly, Ray, I wasn't involved, but that was so long ago it's probably time to bury the hatchet. A grudge held that long is just unhealthy. The best way to absolve a grudge is fight it out and shake hands afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
