Bob Ilyani Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Wow Kaskus. I mean, I don't know what I was expecting, but you've again astonished me with your folly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolph Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Your stupidity is both astounding with how massive it is, especially considering that simply ONE of our allies is involved in this conflict. I will enjoy watching your alliance burn into flames once more, and I'll make sure that the flames burn harder than it was last time.

Cairna Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Just so long as RIA keeps you at war longer than this bigger war lasts, I'm happy. I should be in range by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walshington Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Yay a new front :P  I disagree.  This seems like a conflict completely unrelated to the global war currently blooming.    Not all their allies are occupied.  And they should not occupy themselves with this.  Shangri-La piled on last time, with a bit of "do something about it swagger".   Looks like Kaskus did, only they are not at 12k NS this time. Two evenly matched foes both asked for this, in their own way, and we should let them have what they asked for.  Two micros in the octagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The less people reinforcing stupid ideals the better.  I mean seriously, this is just really pushing the limits of what does and does not make sense.

mmansfield68 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013  Declaration of War  During our last war, we felt as though we were unjustly treated by quite a few parties, many aid bombed NSO but chided our allies once they did the same. They tried to reinforce the age old adage, might makes right. Well no it does not. It is not right to attack a protectorate of an alliance that is at war. It is not right to aid bomb those at war and then taunt the unaided party with statements such as "Do something about it."  Well we couldn't at the time because we were at war with NSO and NPO. But now we can, and now we will. I am sorry your allies are occupied and can't show us why you do not need a WRC. Now you may understand how our protectorate felt.  Therefore, without further ado, Kaskus declares war upon ShangriLa for aiding NSO during our last conflict.  /s/ Black Orchid, President CollegeKid13, Vice President Unknown Smurf, Minister of Foreign Affairs Lord Bitburg HMFICOS Head Mother Fucker In Charge of Shit Baby Fark McGeezAx, Savior of Collegekid KenoCore, Señor Hardcore GantanX, Casualty King Drizz - Lord of Bunny Reproduction Oh crap, This DoW is for honorable reasons. Quick, get the spin-o-meter going, quick!

Walshington Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Oh crap, This DoW is for honorable reasons. Quick, get the spin-o-meter going, quick!  Speaking of the spin-o-meter, you've given us an excellent example of the STRAW MAN argument here (or "The Aunt Sally", as they say in those countries where they speak of "honour").  Simply put, you ascribe an argument to me that I didn't make, usually one that is indefensible, and argue against that, as if it were my point.  That DoW is not about honor.  It is completely about revenge, and seems to be a pretty valid CB: a while back, after Kaskus had been at war for a month or so, Shangri-La piled on top of them.  ("Piled-on" is a loaded term, but after all, Kaskus had some 12M in NS arrayed against them in NSO and NPO, and by the admission of NSO, NPO and Shangri-La, they weren't needed.  When you jump in on someone hopelessly outnumbered and you aren't needed, I think "piling on" is a fair assessment.  Notwithstanding that Kaskus brought the NSO NS upon themselves.)  Kaskus returns the favor now in a fair fight -- both alliances are similar size, with similar NS (which will be made more similar when Shangri-La fully militarizes).  It's easy to be tough when you're piling on -- but have you the stomach for a fair fight? Can you be as tough against an enemy that can fight back as you are against one that is outnumbered?  Who backs down from a fair fight when they think they are in the right and the only thing you're risking is infra? THAT is wear the honor comes in -- honor in the sense of pride, not an honorable reason for fighting (a rarity on Bob, particularly in grudge matches.)
