Maybe they finally gave into Grub.

No.

I am guessing a unexpected treaty announcement with a more strict raid policy included.
[/quote]
No.

Also, hi.

So much for national sovereignty.

This is exquisitely ironic.

No doubt people will argue about why \m/ is doing this. However, I don't care, and obviously I don't mind.

OK, now all we need is for GPA to declare war on someone for no reason, and we're halfway there with the signs of the apocalypse.
[/quote]

Well they just issued a DoN in the only ongoing war so we'll have to wait a while for some apocalyptic shenanigans

[zzzptm]

OK, so tech raids are over.

What about land raids?

I doubt it. \m/ isn't the type to give into the whining of the peanut gallery.

[color="#0000FF"]You're right. They aren't. I want to know the meaning of this. You will tell me. Londo mentioned something about timing. Something is going on that I have missed. What is it? You will tell me.[/color]

[Bob Janova]

This is indeed interesting, and hopefully the reasons behind it will be discussed, because I'm sure they haven't just decided that raiding is evil after doing it for so long in two incarnations.

However, whatever the reasons, one less alliance raiding is a good thing.

If only you'd decided on this policy in December though ...

[Fallen Fool]

I find this amusing.

Until further notice \m/ suspends all tech raids.
[/quote]

"suspends" - doesn't mean it's a change in policy. I grant that it is uncharacteristic. However, this IS Planet Bob There are...pragmatic reasons why a tech raiding alliance might decide to do so. What has me curious is why bother announcing it?

[Bordiga]

I look foward to the day that /m/ ends tech raiding forever rather than simply suspending it.

[roymustang]

Hm. Unexpected, but interesting. StarFox, we may need to have a chat in the near future.

Welcome to the moral side of Bob... at least for the time being.
[/quote]

Haha, NpO, moral. Hahahahaha.

This is a slightly interesting move, though. And I wonder if what I'm thinking of is the reason or not... but it seems unlikely.

This comment just shows how utterly irrelevant Echelon has become.....hurry say something else maybe someone will notice you.

Whether you raid or not \m/ you are our bros........with said; what the hell are you doing!!

[ooc]the government of Norway form an alliance to finally deal with Nordreich once and for all[/ooc]
[/quote]

Nordreich's current foreign relations policy requires me to respond to this in the following manner:

What's Norway? Is that like the Arctic version of Amway?






(Also, I double dog dare them.)

Not much. Just get my mind blown by the amount of not raiding \m/ is doing.

Clearly, the MDP with Polaris is finally being announced. Glad no one saw through the fake war that set this up, totally would have ruined the surprise.

Anyway, good luck or whatever.

"\m/ disbanded" doesn't fully capture it. It's why they disbanded that makes it so funny.

Welly welly welly.. \m/ stepping up into the big boys shoes, looking down all high and mighty.
[/quote]

\m/ can never fit into big boy shoes. They are still little babies. Yes, you heard me. Babies.

Incapable of growing. It's only a suspension, not a complete annihilation of them tech raiding.

I base this on the fact that \m/ is \m/ and that is all that needs to be said.

That's funny, we already seem to be wearing them with more grace than you are.

[lonewolfe2015]

Anyone who doubts they are doing this on their own accords makes me laugh... we've already seen how little they care to conform to other people's wishes.
