Venom4Viper Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Well, by definition the only thing that can be a qualifier for how good an alliance is, is the unity within it +1 to that! tottaly agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vhalen Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Look, if you don't get along, you aren't an alliance. You're a lie. So, yeah, comraderie is important. Heck, it and unity are more or less the same. I mean, unity requires communication, but comraderie IS communication, so... I forget what I was saying. Why isn't beer a choice? Forums are good. I don't actually go on our forums, but I think people like them in general (not ours, forums as a concept). IRC too, though I do wander in there from time to time, mostly to mock someone. Lastly, I forgot the other options, but I guess activity and my glorious presence are both good. Heck, both are probably great. Also, I'd prefer an alliance have snacks. I don't think that was an option, but I'm done looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enderland Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Having Forums IRC activity Comraderie High Activity Friendly Gov Those are the choices from above I picked. But basically it can be summed up in friendships and community. If you have ooc or even ic friendships and community within your alliance it will be successful.

Hegemon Rob Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I voted for girls because it is always nice to have a spread in opinion, and viewpoints, which Girls can offer. I didn't vote for high NS because, there are plenty of close knit alliance communities that don't number over 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarikmo Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Friendly government - The friendlier the government the longer I feel compelled to stay. Activity - I don't mean like, As soon as you post a topic you get 10 replies, I just mean, at least 15% or more of the alliance is active. Bacon - Obligatory bacon hail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haven for Peace Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 When the friendship among members comes before all the politicking, it is the best thing ever. There are no internal bickering, and people can talk to each other easily. It's why I'm in TYR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebet Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I'm personally surprised that people don't find bacon more important in today's allainces but seriously i think you can feel at home in any alliance with friendly members and government, an active irc, and that is looking out for your well being aka aid opportunities, and the fact that I'm in it can't hurt.

Lord Rune Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Community. Even despite all the bickering and arguing that goes on, you know that the other members will fight for you if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynic2 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 From the list that you gave I selected the following: Having forums, Unity, Friendly Government, Being full of war hawks, camaraderie, high activity and the girls... As for specifically what I consider a good alliance : high activity, tight knit community but welcoming to new members, and just overall a place where I can have fun. I'd walk away from an otherwise good alliance if it just wasn't any fun for me to be there, and I'd gladly see my nation burn for an alliance that is a fun place to be.

Hassman Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 High activity and unity both together would be a great alliance. However a few you have missed out discipline and organization. WAPA is full of unity because alot of the members live close to each other and know each other. Even me who lives 100 miles away are great friends with these people but i have never met them. However i am going to meet them in august. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zigbigadorlou Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 This, combined with what I also mentioned above, makes for a really badass alliance. These are the alliances that last, and make their mark on CN history. Mogar made a mark on CN, but that doesn't mean we liked him. IO's too etc. Getting an audience =/= having a good alliance I forget what I was saying. Why isn't beer a choice? Also, I'd prefer an alliance have snacks. I don't think that was an option, but I'm done looking. 'Cause I'm a minor. GB2 being drunk. Also, bacon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anenu Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 good friendly intelligent gov active membership on forums and IRC also forum are in my opinion forums are needed for an alliance to be an alliance so they don't really count as part of a good alliance.

Gunslinger Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) An active(IRC & forums) fun community that gets along with each other is part of it.

I wouldn't say maturity necessarily, sure there needs to be some members who are mature, but isn't it more fun to have members of all different ages?

Prime minister Johns Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) Bacon, definitely bacon Here is my list of what I look for 1: Has a forum & a IRC channel 2: Is well organised 3: Helps all its members and not just the inner circle of the alliance. 4: Is active, it has more than 20% of the members as regulars on the forums Edited June 23, 2009 by Prime minister Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
