shahenshah Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) So this wall-of-text guy Neverender made a post all pissed about people using the name 'Karma' to define their side. First I was going to post 'Cool Story Sis, we'll call you whatever we want to', but then I thought about it for a moment, and as you know with Neverender, he has an absolutely brilliant mind (>Newton) so I thought, mayyybe, Neverender is right, their side is not Karma, it does not contain all Karma elements, but certain the side that is active in war included members that were all in Karma, anyway is this subset of Karma infact Hegemony-in-making? Now, lets be fair, alot of people have suggested its only natural a powerful side will attempt to Hegemonize, it might be that? I mean the blatant taunting and baiting is all there, Some self-declared Tom, Grandmasters and Harrys' have even made desperate attempts, (but a good one, o\) to bait the other side in. People have also linked years old Hegemony crimes to say 'No U's' etc. *Edit: Some posters make a good point, Karma is no more, the right word, rather elements initiating the war that were all elements within Karma. Lord Razzy makes a good point, one side consists completely of Karma elements, while the other side has few Karma elements, similar to how Karma included few elements of former Hegemony on one side and other side consisting of completely former Hegemony elements. Anyway, Is it a purposeful attempt to Hegemonize? Is it just that the 6 month old CB naively appeared and has put the line-ups in that order? Is it the natural order of things? No one to blame, but its only logical that a powerful side consolidates it power through whatever means and justifiy it by whatever means?

Thunder Strike Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I'm sorry but this poll is pointless. The post hegemony environment is much more fluid and it isn't set sides trying to control CN. Further than that 'Karma' is made up of way too many parts to be able to form a hegemony.

RobertFitzy Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Karma does not exist anymore, enough time has passed for allainces to be individuals again since that war, with their own different desires to interact with the world separate from each other.

Jack Diorno Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Karma is not the new hegemony, I do however think that hegemony should be renamed the Coalition of Cowards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynthFG Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Oh god not this cack again when will people get it into there thick heads that there is no more Karma, Karma was a wartime coaliion that even before the Surrender of NPO started to go its separate ways what we have now is a multi polar world connected by a mess of a web of conflicting treaties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Strike Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Btw I'm guessing this poll is a product of IRON feeling as if the whole world is against you. If that is how you feel then there needs to be a lot more communication between everyone. My door is always open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Maybe eventually a part of Karma will gather and form a powerful block, but at the moment (like it was mentioned above) there are far too many players with competing ideologies within it to actually resemble WUT/TI/Q.

avernite Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 If you had said Supercomplaints was the new Hegemony, you'd have gotten more 'yes' votes, IMO. And, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von Metternich Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 How the hell would Karma be the new hegemony if parts of karma are on both sides... >_> Good point. Also, how can Karma be Hegemony if Karma is Karma? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahenshah Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) Why Thank you Der_ko, a poll dedicated to me? you good man are stroking my ego. Anyway,The_Damned, thanks for making sensible post, Also Jack, there is a thread for the CoC 2.0 topic, I have voted in support of CoC 2.0. Steodon, We're CoC 2.0, We have never helped allies or enter a loosing war, u Mad?. -.- Edited December 30, 2009 by shahenshah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch33kY Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) This isn't the Karma War and the opposition is no longer in a position of hegemony. This is a war between everyone who hates TPF versus TPF and everyone who is unfortunate enough to be tied to TPF.

Tomcat Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 What's with this bizarre obsession over finding somebody to label the "new hegemony?"

It's not new. During the Karma War, nearly every discussion devolved into "YEAH WELL YOU'RE JUST AS BAD AS US". I can't speak for my alliance, but it seems to me that none of the nations involved want to control Bob like Hegemony did. One side just doesn't want to be infiltrated and attacked from within, the other wants to lawyer their way out of any consequences for their actions.
