If our reputation among people we generally loathe is reduced while our allies cheer us on then it's not really a moral victory for them is it? [/quote] Reading comprehension is your friend.

Franz Ferdinand Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Nobody loses in this war... just think of the sweet sweet casualties which either side will gain from this.

blindswelledrat Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 [quote name='Xavii' timestamp='1283872918' post='2445346'] I know we did, and I don't see any GOONS members crying. Sure they could have handled these guys alone, but why should they? If their allies can better cover their bigger nations not asking for help would be retarded, why force more damage on your own alliance then you need to? [/quote] Pride is the answer to that, I think. Starting wars then running for help. That shown no pride whatsoever. I think that's where you and I differ so much. YOu take enormous pride in the amount of tech you have bought yet not in the ability to fight a war you have started. Bizarre priorities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT Jag Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 After all the grand-standing that has taken place here, here are the facts regarding us. 1. The people we hate, don't care about, or otherwise would expect to hate us still hate us. 2. The people we respect, like, and are allied with us like us even more than previously for giving them a few fights. Status quo is unchanged despite all this blathering about how our credibility has been ruined and whatnot. Also, to those of you that may not understand the mechanics of alliance wars due to being infra-hugging alliances, having friends in low places like ourselves (toilet cleaners, if you will) is quite valuable. After all, if we don't keep that turd down it'll just grow back eventually and bother our friends again. We can't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be much better if you guys hit them yourselves. It would be a surprise gift. If you do somehow come out of anarchy for round two though, GOONS would appreciate it if you declared on as many different targets as possible to spread the love.
