Paradigm Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Serious congrats Mary. As to the less important content - After reading that I now favor harsher surrender terms for NPO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Paul Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Remember the tabloid article you wrote where you compared the Alliance Defense Network to Nazi Germany and Pope Hope to Adolf Hitler? Good times, that was...... [ooc]I do remember that and it was good times. To be fair, the question was: Who is a bigger nazi, the ADN, Hitler, or the NPO. At the time, the level of Godwin at !@#$%* was crazy so I decided to settle the issue once and for all. The NPO did get 3 of out 14 on the Nazi scale, and it did come with the following disclaimer: DISCLAIMER: The NPO and authors do not actually believe the ADN, Pope Hope, Unlimited, the NPO, or Hitler were actually Nazis. Wait, he was, but no one else is. We did this because it seemed funny at the time, since everyone says everyone else are Nazis, but now, after reading it, it's just offensive. But I'm not going to throw away my evening writing this horse **** and not publish it, so you'll just have to bear down, read this highly offensive piece of trash, reflect, and think that you've learned something. So yeah, it was actually an article designed to show everyone how stupid the "you're a nazi" talk was stupid.[/ooc] I'm sorry, what is the Alliance Defense Network?

Master-Debater Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Good to see that even when getting whooped propaganda still is funny. VOX is better at it though. Maybe you should ask the spys in NPO that work for VOX for some advise. Atleast then it might be a bit more interesting of a read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradigm Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 honestly, i hold out for the best of pacifica after these times. The NPO needs to realize that their place within Bob is that of a protector not an enforcer. the NPO's fall from grace comes at a point where their society promtotes domination over protection and i hope that this war brings them back to their roots. Well said...I could actually see Mary pulling it off in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Schrodinger Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Honestly, I don't think NPO is trying to compete with Vox at all. They just came in, said what they had to say, and left. Vox tries to make things lulzy and point out flaws if everything. NPO tries to make itself look good, fails epicly, but doesn't use direct humor, making their style boring and generally unpleasant to read, except in the lulz that can be acquired when they claim to be a peaceful alliance. Congrats to Mary. You get to inherit a devastated alliance that will (hopefully) never rise to its former "glory" again. Have fun with that.

Doitzel Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Why did Bakunin and Zhadum "retire" in the middle of a war? Who's taking over the proverbial and literal smoking ruin that used to be the media department? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Frontier Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) Why did Bakunin and Zhadum "retire" in the middle of a war? Who's taking over the proverbial and literal smoking ruin that used to be the media department? Remember that quotation about a million monkeys on a million type writers eventually writing Shakespeare? Pacifica has decided to see if it's true.

I really find it distasteful and plain buligerant for you to even bring up hitler or nazzi's in an ic forum. Even if it is coming from an alliance structured as NPO is with its history.

Soccerbum Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 I'm sorry, what is the Alliance Defense Network? This is a strange topic to bring up. Regardless, I read it, wasn't very impressed, but I'm not going to bash it either. Yay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeinousOne Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Well Sir Paul, I am not one of those who cannot give credit to those on the opposing side. I am not going to bother comparing it to TWiP nor am I going to try and harshly judge this in an attempt to make you and it look bad. I do wish all these critics would try their best to put out some decent propaganda pieces. I care not which side puts it out, I enjoyed reading your attempt to portray how things are. At this point I would say propaganda isnt going to have much affect at swaying folks from one side to the other but it certainly is fun to read. Please continue Sir Paul and do not mind those who show themselves as no better then those they would pull down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingSuck Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Please continue Sir Paul and do not mind those who show themselves as no better then those they would pull down. This.

State where we have sentenced those in peace mode in the NPO to extended warfare and harsh terms. State where we have forced an alliance to give us half the tech in their total alliance. Provide sources for such behavior, and then I will agree with you that Karma is no better than the Hegemony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fant0m Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 However, pundits noted that Mary's gender had little to do with her appointment, as her vast qualifications, which include being head of the Green Protection Agency and besting Admin at Scrabble, make her a natural choice to lead an alliance dedicated to Peace, Strength and Prosperity.

Kzoppistan Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) Clever piece! Well writ. It's funny how people are so quick to denounce others work as propaganda and yet fully buy into their own.

brass Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 4 out of 5 members prefer TWiP! I enjoyed the style and effort, but VoX just does it better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crushtania Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Hmm. This edition seemed a bit petulant to me. Although I do like the attention to RP they have. Although telling Karma they're copying Pacifica will definitely upset Karma. Oh, I'm so conflicted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorConcept Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 So has SSSW18 been issued a KARMA Viceroy or their forums been taken over as NPO did to GATO?Also wheres the SSSW18 nations that were in peace mode kept at war? Basically this. Good attempt at propaganda though, kudos for trying. Congrats to mary as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
