kriekfreak Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Sorry but this is just retarded. I mean why do you want to sign (like 7?) treaties right after you come out of terms? Or why do you want to sign with an alliance that apparently signs with everything that moves. NPO is the new TORN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cortath Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 The friendships forged between the Legion and the New Pacific Order are strong indeed and have weathered the long cold winter of the Interregnum. That we maintain the relations we do is a testament to the depth of commitment we have for each other. Hail the Legion! Hail the New Pacific Order!

Buds The Man Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Congrats to our allies in Legion. I find it interesting that people are questioning some of these treaties. Most of you have always said friendship is above all else. Why wouldnt these treaties be signed after terms if the friendship is there. good luck to both parties.

Letum Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Just because we were not allowed to hold any treaties doesn't mean we didn't hold any friendships. All these treaties are just a formalization of the relationships we already had; and it makes perfect sense that we would go ahead and sign them at the earliest opportunity. There isn't really any deep meaning or surprising insight to be found here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] If you don't want to sign treaties with your friends, that's your prerogative. But since we do want to sign, we will do so when we are able to. Since we have been unable to sign them at the moment we wanted to, we sign them now that we are out of terms. I really don't understand what point you are trying to make. It's not like we went to these people and were like "hey, we're out of terms, how about a treaty?" most of this stuff was probably planned ages ago.

You'd do what you could to help get your alliance protected wouldn't you? [quote name='kriekfreak' date='21 May 2010 - 10:55 AM' timestamp='1274453690' post='2306931'] Again, what's the haste?

[/quote] Frankly, we actually missed having them as treaty partners. Apart from NPO's understandable desire to gain some protection, their ten months of living with a treaty ban meant that the treaties were going to be compressed. If - for example - Karma had decided to allow us to sign a PIAT with them in August, then you'd have seen a gradual increase in their treaties as time progressed.

Malatose Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Yes, we were under terms for almost a year. However, that doesn't mean the friendship between The Legion and the New Pacific Order withered. It only grew and that is evident by the treaty we signed today. Hail Legion!

Daimos Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I can understand why some would be annoyed of what seems like a spam of NPO treaties on the boards. It is just NPO could not wait to sign these treaties with allies who stood by us during our darkest hour. I think a day or two of this is not asking a lot when you have been in chain for close to a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Elecian Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 (edited) Personally I like the name of this new MDP but I would like to have seen Pacifica's newer flag to have been used for this treaty. Oh well. Haters can go hate on and jump off a cliff, contrary to those that are still rocking their rocking chairs, it is not stockholm syndrome. I'm still proud to see the friendship between both our alliances formalized in a treaty. Ave Pacifica! Ave Legio!
