That is, in fact, two wars that you have lost. [/quote] Those were just battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heft Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 [quote name='Bob Janova' timestamp='1283097236' post='2434718'] So wait, why are we talking about reps and terrible terms? I'm pretty sure this war ended with no reps and no real terms beyond surrendering and taking responsibility (and well, regarding the second, we all know how much statements like that in peace terms are really worth). Discussion of the old 'Hegemony vs Karma: who is worse' is really quite out of place, I hope everyone can agree that these terms are light! [/quote] Well there was originally a discussion pointing out that the things they wanted us to take responsibility for aren't all things that we should be taking responsibility for, and at least in one case something they seem to have just made up out of thin air. But otherwise yes I agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You can have whatever perspective you want. If you surrender (the very word used in the OP mind you) then you have lost the war/battle. It really is that simple. So simple that I have a hard time believing anyone in their right mind could actually argue the point. Which is probably where Conrad is coming from in regards to delusions.

Haflinger Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 [quote name='Sandwich Controversy' timestamp='1283098418' post='2434731'] To [i]punish them[/i], obviously. We didn't go to the lengths of requiring huge nations to send it themselves, but when they pay for it and the tech still comes from their coffers it hurts them. For the great majority of TOP's reps and the entirety of most of the alliances we defeated they can use any sellers from any alliance they choose, regardless. Why are you throwing a link to random nation at me? Look at these: http://www.cybernations.net/allNations_display_alliances.asp?Page=1&Order=DESC&Field=Alliance_Date&Alliance=The%20Order%20Of%20The%20Paradox . [i]Tons[/i] of small nations from after the war ended, which can and are being used for reps. [/quote] The reason I'm throwing a link to a nation at you is because it proves my point. My point was, as you seem to have forgotten, that TOP was not capable of recruiting sufficient small nations to pay its reps in time. As evidence, I give you a nation paying reps that was not a recruited small nation. If they had been able to manage a 2008-era TOOL-style drive, then that nation would not have been paying reps.

the masheen Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 This is just classic NSO being NSO. They are pretending to think they won the war simply to make people mad. That's it. That's what they do. They try to make people mad. That's why they got curbstomped in the first place. They haven't learned anything. That's why the NSO is complete garbage. I can't wait until you make the same stupid mistakes, step on the wrong toes and get crushed again. I'm sure your enemies will make it extremely clear who won next time. Until then have fun playing the annoying little pest role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
