Penkala Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Vox, and those in alliances other than those who helped Vox, truly helped turn the tide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loannes Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'd been a Vox Populi sympathizer since a few days after I stepped foot on Planet Bob. I never joined, but their ideals struck a bell with me. o/ Vox Populi o/ The Revolution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1a Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 As are we. Having an ally that was willing to show their shared beliefs and commitment to our defiance in public was a shining light for FAN during some of the darkest days of the war.FAN will remember our brothers of the Pocahontas Accords, even if we never got that last October rum mixer recipe from you. The Pocahontas Accords could very well have been the greatest bloc of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintenderek Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 The Pocahontas Accords could very well have been the greatest bloc of all time. I would say it still is, considering two of the alliances that were in it are still around, and the treaty itself was never canceled.

Heyman Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hope this quote applies: "At the risk of sounding ridiculous, Let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love." - Che Guevara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Great times, fearful times. My membership in Vox was probably the period I was most active on the CN forums. Arguing in every Vox thread (remember how many there where?) for the revolution and against the system that had seized hold of Planet Bob. The excitement of breaking the New Pacific Order's grip on the Red Senate. Watching the dismissive attitudes directed toward us transform into desperate opposition. I hope this world never needs another revolution, that Vox's lesson has been taken to heart, but should the need arise. I stand ready.

Heyman Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I like how no one would say half these things a year ago. That's how the world spins. Of course I wouldn't have said these things half a year ago. Vox was an enemy. Now they are not. Political environments change. Perspectives change. People change. And that's exactly what we want and need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Apocalypse Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 nadabethyname? lolwut, when did that happen? Even one of our members had something to do with Vox, that pretty much goes to show how far reaching and powerful this movement was. Well played ladies and gentlemen. Well played.

OmahaHusker Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'm OmahaHusker, formerly DocHolliday. It was worst and best time in CN. Leaking passwords to Atrophis was probably the best part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dochartaigh Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I like how no one would say half these things a year ago. I would not say that exactly. Several people spoke out against many things. I for example spoke out heavily against the TPF-NoV war while still in Polaris and even after Random posted Polaris's support of TPF. I may have even spoken out in that thread. I do believe others have spoken out in that time. IAA for example, spoke out and fought for GATO during the 1V-GATO war. and i am sure there are still more examples if i felt like thinking that hard. So to state that no one spoke out a year ago is false, it was just drowned out by the endless hailing and brown-nosing that most in CN did at that time.

Ebony Wings Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I was Thunderforge, and to all the rest of you: you're welcome. You can thank myself, Schattenmann, and all the other former Vox by not making us do it all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintenderek Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I like how no one would say half these things a year ago. I could say why and give a huge list of reasons why, but this is neither the time nor the place. But the fact that they can now proves that Vox was indeed successful in it's main mission. We set out to help start a new world where opinions mattered, and it's exactly what we did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homura Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I'm so glad this announcement was something other than a Vladimir rant. Although I was never part of Vox and was sometimes even critical of it, I must acknowledge the sacrifice and commitment that led the disaffected to believe they could change the world. I do believe that we'll see the rise of another hegemony, as the last war was not a destruction of the elite so much as a defeat of their most prominent figures, but should that come to pass, my hope is that the rest of the world will remember and be inspired by this revolution against the invincible.

Erwin Schrodinger Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Fun to read through the list and find out a good portion of your gov members were at some point in time involved with Vox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomInterrupt Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I'll offer a hail and raise a drink to the August Revolution. It was a noble fight and its effects will be felt for quite some time. Enjoy your anniversary, for you deserve the recognition and celebration.

HeinousOne Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Ahh, those were the days. Despite the fact that I was quite a loathed figure at that time, I can honestly say it was enjoyable for me to lock words with you guys. To look back I am glad the story went the way it did despite my tiny little contribution on the losing end, the big bad evil really isn't supposed to win even though everyone thought it would when you guys started out. I like how no one would say half these things a year ago. For the record I realize you are absolutely correct that many folks saluting them now wouldn't dare utter a complimentary word in their direction. There were a few isolated incidents of mutual respect shot towards the other side although they were few and far between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groucho Marx Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) What a fun time, fighting MCXA and GGA with Vox Populi was great. And yeah, I was on one of the forums. I even rescinded my application to TOP in order to join Vox. Kind of shot my friend's credibility for vouching for me in doing so, but I couldn't just do nothing.
