flak attack Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 [quote name='Beefspari' timestamp='1285173693' post='2461065'] It's really quite baffling when you stop to think about it. We keep getting flack when we take action against people aiding nations we're at war with. Inbetween all the "it's extortion" complaints, people keep doing it. And then act indignant when we do something about it. [/quote] *flak [quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1285174059' post='2461071'] [color="#0000FF"]Oh, I agree that it is an act of war, against the unaligned nation that is, for the same reasons I do not agree with tech raiding. But still, the fact remains, however inconvenient it is, that GOONS can spy on any unaligned nation they'd like without consequence as that nation has no protection. I am merely stating the obvious truth.[/color] [/quote] The only difference in the way GOONS treated the other aiding is that they asked the aligned nation's gov for permission to spy first. jimkongil doesn't have a gov to ask, so they went ahead. [quote name='the rebel' timestamp='1285176121' post='2461112'] You obviously havent been paying attention to what ive said, as i said [b]if[/b] they had asked me before spy attacks, there would not of had been need for spy attacks. So yes i took offense that being a highly active member who is easily able to get in contact with within hours, that they couldnt be arsed to talk to me first. [/quote] At which point they would have declared on you and spied anyway, so it's a moot point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedj Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 [quote name='Heinlander' timestamp='1285169237' post='2460986'] You have read this thread and seen that there are already people lining up to fight you, right? This whole "begging our allies" thing is the most hilarious kind of passive aggressive attack. Our friends love us when this happens. They were queued up the moment that UOKMB declared on us, and the same applies here. [/quote] Im pained in agreeing with GOONS..but if one of our allies wanted a slot on a rogue we would most certianly let them enjoy the fun. Besides, nobody was lining up to cry about how terrible it was for \m/ to allow others to attack Fernando Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're pretty damn clear in this thread. Perhaps *gasp* Umar isn't available right this instant. Or, even more crazy, perhaps he wants to quad this fellow.

agafaba Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 I think the lesson we have all learned is if you have to aid Methrage dont tell people that you are going to do it. at the very least you should make GOONS work to find out who did it.

Just because someone posts in a Goons thread it does not open them up for investigations and spy attacks. [/quote] If it is any consolation, you're not the only one who received a GOONS aid offer which was cancelled right away.
