Xellos Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 The middle letter in this thread's subject matter is a little more curvacious than "P", please get back to the topic at hand, namely NSO and RoK's current conflict. Discussion of NPO, Echelon, the Hegemony, the neo-Hegemony and viceroys have little place in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Wally Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) I hope we demand a beer review from NSO... that way we will be fighting for months and months before the NSO bow down to our outragous demands... oh the humanity! Also in regards to why we are at war... its simple. As a parent the first comparison i think of is when you tell your child that if they dont stop X behaviour they will get a smack. The child keeps doing X behaviour. Then if you dont back up your promise of a smack the child downward spirals into a total feral that makes your life hell. We're just doing the most educational thing we can for the NSO by showing them we mean what we say. as the super nanny would say NSO "its not asseptable behaviour" to aid and assist active rogues. When mr Hoo warns you will get a smack if you dont stop he means it. Edited August 10, 2010 by King Wally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would urge you to contribute by sharing your opinions on how and when the war could end. I hope we can also stop discussing NPO, Kalasin's information is well acknowledged by all quarters if you know what I mean. I suggest we all discuss the topic at hand.

Alfred von Tirpitz Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 The object of this war is very clearly this : Learn the value of the following : Be on time for the blitz even if the schedule is moved ahead by six hours. No slots left for me I verily wanted to dance the tango with my old friend Joshua James As for terms, one of them has to be that RV be a regular on the RoK boards, no inferior substitutes will be acceptable.

Bob Janova Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) I'd guess that there'll be a cycle or maybe two of smashing out the SF-NSO tension that's been obvious for some time, and then since the rogue in question will have reached ZI through the normal effects of war by that time, some token reps and an apology, assuming NSO aren't as ridiculous about surrendering as they were in Bipolar. Also, two posts to mention 'we're not as bad as NPO'? Seriously? Ironic, too, considering RoK are about the only non-Hegemony alliance to actually have imposed a viceroy which seems to be your only argument.

iMatt Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 I don't see why they can' just tell all of RoK's allies to peace out and have a 1vs1 for a round of war or so. It would relieve some of the boredom and would be a much more even fight than what we are seeing now. Then end with white peace, RoK having presumably taught NSO a lesson.

ChairmanHal Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 In the past when Rok imposed extremely harsh terms, it was usually due to the original terms not being followed. I can't speak to what GOD might want, but I would not expect that it would be generous. But then again, I could well be surprised. I have no sense of what the others might want.
