[/quote] In all fairness, if you look at our last announcement...I did say " our ODN overlords No hard feelings dvd, I have a lot of respect for IRON even as an ally of ODN, respect that was built long ago and it hasn't vanished. In all seriousness, I'm as loyal to ODN now as I was loyal to IRON during my time at MCXA. It's sad really that we could not be part of CTI (you know this) because of the mutual hatred between ODN/IRON (silly me..trying to make !@#$ work, trying to bring a higher sense of unity amongst Orange); hopefully the hatred that divides Orange ends one of these days and we can all be friends.

[/quote] Out of curiosity, could you outline the implications you are trying to make here? I might add that picking out a single example of a common argument for the purpose of a confusing and poorly worded [i]ad hominem[/i] is unlikely to project the credibility and confidence that one might expect from the public face of an embattled alliance. Or maybe that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ejayrazz Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Some of you are so warped in your assertions it really makes any validity you may possess seem moot. "This is a bad move," who cares? It's their protectorate and sadly the world doesn't revolve around you. If they wish to be brothers with IRON, that is their decision. Just because YOU don't like IRON doesn't mean everyone else will. Just because YOU don't see eye to eye with IRON doesn't mean no one else will. Good to see a lot of ODN treating this will respect, good show. (No sarcasm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of ODN, the one thing in my almost four years of this game that I regret most is that at one time, I too was a member of the ODN. It was years ago (Spring through early summer of 2007), and I've tried to pretend as if it never happened, and I'll refrain from saying too much on my specific impressions of the time, sure it was a long time ago, but as times change, I'm sure many things stay the same. I guess one might say that very ill-thought out venture on my behalf gives me at least a little added perspective, even if it is years old.

[/quote] Then perhaps you should take the time to speak to some of our opponents in the recent conflict (something you have patently not done), you might be presently surprised As for your regret as you have said yourself it was a long time ago and ODN has changed alot, perhaps you should take the time to find out how things are rather than basing your obvious bias on the distant past.

Here's how your career in the ODN played out. -You joined April 16th, 2007. -Remained inactive till August. -Posted a NPO-Hate thread. -You were told you went overboard. -Whined and used being ex-NAAC as an excuse. -Disappeared around October. On paper, that looks bad... but I'm sure you thought you were justified. It was years ago anyway. I'm sure even you have improved since then.

[/quote] I might be wrong, but at the time Krynn was cancelled IRON was facing overwhelming odds against several alliances with little perspective of peace on the horizont. Now they are only fighting Grämlins which should not be a major issue in regards to defend an alliance with 11k Avg NS. Most IRON on that range should be not in range of Grämlins. As for ODN.. well, I am yet to see them fulfilling a treaty in tough conditions. I'll reserve my judgmenet until then. So far they have proven themselves incapable by actions, though their words say otherwise. This war does not really count as it was brought to them and they weren't really in a disadvantageous position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
