This is my new favorite moment of the whole war. GOD looking like even bigger jerks? NPO committing an (another) act of aggression on Polar? This is great!

As great as this moment might be for you it can never beat the moment grub declared on TOP. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

Guess there's a first time for everything!

Well, the draconian stuff didn't work, so we're trying a new form of evil I'm calling "good." This war seemed like a good time to try it out.

What's unreasonable about having you uphold your surrender terms? It's a clear advantage for them to do so. Having them suspend it would be a foolish decision.

Considering anything we send them will be nuked away I don't see how this benefits them directly.

But, Xiphosis, this is the pretty standard response from you folk. You get a thread you don't like it. You call it amateurish. You deny the facts point by point. This is your modus operandi.

And you ignore arguments you don't like. Any comment on the precedent set by NPO that reps should continue in the event of a war?

You asked Xiphosis for something reasonable and level headed?

Well, that could quite possibly be the stupidest move anyone can make, NPO. Come on now.

You should look at your own ally's actions recently first before commenting about someone doing stupid acts ;)

I still see no reason for them to suspend an agreement that provides them with aid while at war with several alliances. Why in the world would they not want that?

We had a lapse in judgement.

It substitutes any normal things they have from being nuked. Really is that your only argument? People shouldn't be aided because they're being nuked?

14 of 15 [s]dentists[/s] former Karma alliances disagree.

We're cowards sitting in our bunkers, haven't you heard? You don't think we'd sully our new shiny tech by fighting do you? No, no we'll send the meatshields fighting and collect the reps. Just watch our techcount soar during wartime.

That precedent isn't being set by us, it's being set by GOD. We have no interest in getting involved in this war in any way, but when any of those holding us under terms refuse to be reasonable, we will stick to our word and uphold our surrender terms.

You know, I just remembered something funny. NPO never gave GPA such a gift, even when NPO was fighting Wolfpack, Illuminati and GATO and friends and the aid was in violation of GPA's law and the neutrality enforcements made by NPO. Surely I can't be the first to notice that. Good job giving them what they deserve GOD.


No, I would say NPO has set a pretty good precedent that they feel otherwise.

We aim to please.

No, but that was the most relevant one. I don't see any need to waste it when you could be promised rebuilding aid.

What's unreasonable about holding you to terms you agreed to in order to help them in a war they're fighting? Seems like a smart military choice.

Why worry about rebuilding aid when you could just use it to fight the current war?

Yeah, and [i]we're[/i] the ones denying the facts here.

Right, because you definitely didn't do the same thing to GPA, right? Right?

Fishy, don't forget, when they do it it's enlightened francoism, when we do it we're just being stubborn.

I'm so waiting for the official reply to this farce of a propaganda piece.

All of those agreed to a suspension of reps.
[/quote]

In that case a sharing of the logs, either privately or here, would help both sides, no?

At some point, NoFish, you, and the others like you who keep on spouting the "you did it" line, are going to have to find a new song to play. The whole "you were evil three years ago so we can be evil too" argument isn't going to serve you very well in a world that doesn't seem to like evil very much.

I'm sorry, my memory of 2 years ago is hazy. Did GPA request a suspension? I wasn't able to find one in the records but I may have mislaid it.

Except one of your arguments was based on "precedents" which NPO would have set.
