(which will be taken away from you the next time you go to war [because you are terrible at it]) As you can see, the word "terrible" can be applied a lot to the Legion. [/quote] Congratz on lacking character mate. I guess some times you have to put down others in order to feel good about yourself though. [quote name='Sandwich Controversy' date='29 June 2010 - 01:09 AM' timestamp='1277791781' post='2353671'] ^ Dissenting opinions should never be silenced. I thought this was an important lesson of the Karma War. It most certainly is! Am I not allowed to criticize alliances I do not like or agree with, a freedom many members of your alliance enjoy on a daily basis? [/quote] Don't even try to save face. It makes you look like even more of an idiot. Which is hard to do after your first post. Also congratz Legion, I have been excitedly waiting for this since the war.

Legion only got sanction because they absorbed a load of inactive members from another alliance. Hardly something to be proud of is it? It's not like they've worked hard for this, they've been floating under the sanction line for how many years?

Mirreille Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Were the people sniping at Legion for absorbing M*A*S*H saying the same things when alliances on the other side of the political fence were merging with smaller AAs to grow, or is this just a complaint when people gain a sanction from a merge? I doubt M*A*S*H agreed to disband just so Legion could get a sanction, so this criticism is unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryievla Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Congratulations Legion. You were my first alliance. I think I will always have some good memories from then, even if I left kinda mad Can't wait to see the pip, just a shame GATO's will be gone (love the cat!)

Branimir Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 It has been a long time coming. Congratulations on getting there. In regards to some venomous comments in this thread, obviously IC affiliations will break apart mostly according to IC political lines. Even in OOC parts of the board. I personally am not that consumed by this game, to bring IC affiliation politics into this OOC part of the board so, can only comment that those which out of boredom (I presume, dull season) will spill venom in a congratulatory thread, are best to be ignored. Anyway, welcome back to the list, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inactive alliances tend to be more likely to merge mainly because the govt. doesn't want to be more active to do their job(Tell me Legion, did you grant any MASH members govt spots?) It's not as if Legion got some good quality members just more dead weight. His opinion wasn't lacking, you just don't agree with it and instead of asking him why he thinks Legion is a terrible alliance you resorted to calling him an idiot. I sure am glad there are so many good quality posts such as this to read on this forum.

[/quote] MASH - Inactive Vanguard - Active And of course we're ignoring the fact that we've been growing quite well for the good part of a year and had the war that went down earlier this year not happened we'd probably have enough score for a sanction.

Sandwich Controversy Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Indeed, before the war MK was above several sanctioned alliances (and the legion~) in terms of score. You're also a very classy individual for calling me an idiot, it swings both ways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
