ChairmanHal Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Hey folks!Great thread! Just wanted to point out this little jem: P.s. - if this is all a big misunderstanding, we can negotiate reps. Couple questions from an interested party shall we say... I see no evidence, aside from your screenshots, that kurtcobain was ever at war with Gadzooka. Now this could be because peace has been declared and one or both nations have already deleted the war from their recent conflict list, but that does strike me as a bit odd. Perhaps I've got it wrong, though. Care to explain? But...let's continue... Wars at times get settled behind closed doors long before the participants are aware of it. As a result, shooting incidents are fairly common in the hours after peace is declared simply because someone didn't get the message. Since Gadzooka had not received any reps/reps offers from your alliance at any point prior to the incident in question, what proof is there that Gadzooka knew to peace out but didn't? Why bring this up except in an effort to throw some lighter fluid on a thread that should now be dying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tick1 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Are you really posting this topic on the forums? Whatever happened to alliances dealing with issues in private? Can Invicta not manage their own issues without putting SLCB under a microscope? If you really have issues with this discuss things with your allies and SLCB and their allies. Stop wasting time complaining to the world about minor issues. If you are so concerned about the rogue, just deal with the matter yourself, by declaring war on the rogue nation if they request reps simply say, "We are sorry, but your request has been denied due to the fact that we are busy rebuilding our recently attacked nations." So much sarcasm and yet I do agree with most of what I've said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChairmanHal: i think your statement here applies to this whole thread amirite? as schrodinger so elequently pointed out, someone already made this thread, so why not use it right? BTW: Invicta was responsive, and the situation has been handled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again it is proven the forums are better than private channels. Edited October 29, 2009 by imbored24470 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scythegfx Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 I don't speak for MK but they are very honorable and more than likely would pay reps. I mean Scythegfx is in MK who else is more honorable than Scythegfx. I'll endorse this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heracles the Great Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 If SLCB is so wrong here why is Invicta afraid to get their balls back from their mothers and use them? Invicta is a laughingstock and it's not irrational purplol hate, it's because of inane threads like this. That, my good friend, is quite easy to answer. Invicta can see the many war-hungry alliances hiding behidn SLCB waiting for Invicta to attack so they can jump in and destroy them... as can the rest of us.

magicninja Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Yeah pretty petty attempt to goad Invicta into a battle (even if it didn't start that way). I can appreciate that I guess but I think Invicta was smart to chip away in the PR game too. PR works as we have seen once or twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Druss the Legend Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 All I can say from reading this thread is a big LOL@Purple Hail SLCB, the alliance who hands Purple a CB, and they're to afraid of you to do anything. o/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proko Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 The posturing of the alliances on both sides of this drama is pretty unreasonable. Fight or don't, but I'd stop with the worthless threads like this (and the Endorsement thread). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porksaber Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Oh dear God. Just...never mind. your swing is nice, you just need to work on your follow-through. You raised the point that we're asking for reps via inappropriate channels right? In which case I recommend you take a look at the OP. They acknowledged the attacks after peace was established, why do you remain skeptical? See, they handled it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpol777 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 When did the world revert to talking about their nations being raided as opposed to just killing the raider? *mpol shrugs lolDiplomacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why bring this up except in an effort to throw some lighter fluid on a thread that should now be dying? First part, if that was not the war then there was only one war and OP was a lie. One thing SLCB and Invicta can agree on I'm sure is that there were two wars. Second part... I am about 99.9% certain Invicta is smart enough to message their nations too tell them to peace/accept peace. If they DIDN'T.. maybe we can start a new thread!

It should be a poll. Did Invicta really too stupid to tell members to peace? -yarly -wtfno -@#$% you and your @#$%ing threads Oh and in case it isn't clear from my other post I'm fairly certain they messaged their members.

Mussolandia Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Invicta, if worse comes to worst, please contact us about arrangements for the expatriate forced labor we are in short supply of. Many thanks. Hardly a "stupid move" from Invicta, despite the protestations of the partisans. This is what you do when you want to make someone look bad and you've got material to back it up.

Nowadays, the advantage to the defender is such that floating CBs and hoping someone acts on them so you can activate your treaty web seems to be the goal. I would not be shocked if SLCB was encouraged by some set of their allies to retain the rogue in the hopes of starting something. Also mpol is very right. Why not just keep killing the guy who attacked you with a vengeance, only stopping when and if an agreement satisfying you is reached. No one would fault you for that.

I've been somewhat inactive as of late, but I believe it was Jingoist who brought up that Kurt was a valued and longstanding member of SLCB, and that they'd rather he not be thrown to the wolves. Which is fine by us, so long as reps are paid. They were, even if it took a while to get there, so the matter's closed. After this, one of the attacked members, ignoring orders, made a strike, but we've cleared that up as well now. To put it simply, the issue is resolved, nothing to see here folks, move along, these are not the droids you're looking for, and so on.

My point (probably mpol's too) was that you should keep beating the !@#$ out of him until the reps are agreed to, not stopping before because you have faith that a traditionally antagonistic party won't antagonize you this time.
