Tehmina Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Are you alluding to this sitation when a few nations from your communist/socialist/anarchist etc. bloc were sanctioned and one attacked? That was simply a battle for a senate control. The measures applied in that confrontation were extremely lenient. Well, according to me they weren't... I have always believed that Senate race should be democratically held and those measures defeated the spirit of democracy in the Pink team IMO... Obviously the PECS interprets senate races differently and argues that use of sanctions and military action is justified. Its imperialistic in nature and hence we donot agree with it. as it is said, there is always two stories behind an event! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is where conflicting ideas come Smurf... we believe in some ideology about teams, Bones believe in something else.... so the exchange between us becomes unpleasant :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its imperialistic in nature and hence we donot agree with it. as it is said, there is always two stories behind an event! Your whole bloc could have been attacked. Instead, the scope of intervention was very limited. That is why I said it was extremely lenient. Anyway, I'm quite happy to be on the pink team. Just a simple example: proposal giving +1 aid slot in exchange for -4$ income is obviously very good for both tech buyers and tech sellers. It passed on pink, black and maroon teams. In the meantime, blue, yellow, white, brown and purple teams voted it down. My guess is that senators on those teams cater to the wishes of the less active nations rulers, who don't utilize their aid slots in full. Such are "merits" of democracy...

murtibing Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 our whole bloc could have been attacked? as if we did something wrong? One don't have to do something wrong to get attacked. Attacking your whole bloc was one of the possible methods of achiving the goal of senate control. As it turned out, a few sanctions and one actual war was enough. For the record, I don't know whether your bloc would have been attacked if applied measures were not enough. My point was simply that what was done was very lenient compared to (for example) full scale war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murtibing Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 but it's not as lenient as other methods, like giving us tech and money, or simply talking it over True, but the objective was to be efficient, not lenient. Comparative leniency was a by-product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
