Do what you need to do on those paths which we cannot follow, homeslices. [/quote] His definition of brothers included "And if danger knocked on your door, we'd ride from the depths and punch them $%^&@#s in the face" so you arent echoing his sentiments.

Dr Beefstupid Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 [quote name='Vol Navy' timestamp='1285737542' post='2467806'] Just so it's clear, GOONS repeatedly asked Ejay to bring it. It's been brought. That is hardly saying "niener niener". It was repeated often and suggested that Ejay and the Ninja's lacked testicular fortitude to bring it. Nothing to do with free speech or not. You have a right to ask for it, they have a right to deliver. [/quote] Damn. If we knew it would be that easy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktarthan Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 [quote name='Ejayrazz' timestamp='1285738465' post='2467866'] By your logic, we wouldn't have attacked. We knew your people knew, we still didn't care. It makes no sense to dwell on your statistics. Just wait till the nukes begin flying. [/quote] You have your motivations, and we have ours. I don't think one is better than the other; I just prefer mine. That being said, I'm looking forward to this war; it will alleviate some boredom to say the least.

Vol Navy Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 [quote name='Ryuzaki' timestamp='1285737954' post='2467830'] Having the same or slightly more is still less than optimal. Getting your entire top tier wrecked in what is sure to be a drawn out nuclear conflict is hardly a good idea. [/quote] GOONS have around 30 nations to 7 for the Ninja's in the 30-70k NS range. I could see GOONS needing help with the top 4 from Ninja. Yet it's GOONS allies who are filling the war slots of many of those nations in the 30-40k ns range.

[/quote] Many will stay in my opinion. People need to realize it's not us riding towards the sunset; we're doing something about you. You said we wouldn't, we did. I do, however, feel it is a little silly to pretend as if your opportunistic allies are uncontrollable. They knew, you knew, you should have said "We got this," but to each his own right? @Ktar: I agree. May people die happily, this road doesn't really start winding till nukes are flown.

SirWilliam Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 [quote name='HeroofTime55' timestamp='1285737886' post='2467826'] A "micro AA" that had 1 million NS going into this... How can you even say that with a straight face? Edit: And I just noticed your use of the word "rogue." Can we expect sanctions to occur in this war as well? [/quote] Would you feel less aggrieved if I had said "small AA" instead (based on number of nations)? All the same. (It's late and I'm tired; I was going off of previous reports that they'd be disbanding and going rogue on us when stating the mass-rogueing bit. Whoops.) [quote name='HeroofTime55' timestamp='1285737886' post='2467826'] While I don't dispute the points when taken alone, it is when you examine the context, the GOONS perpetual toughguy posturing, coupled with not fighting solo against "micro AA's" and bringing in as many people as possible to sponge up damage so you don't have to, it's just highly ironic. In much the same way it is when you tell people to "do something about it" and then you come here crying when they do. [/quote] GOONS is crying? I can assure you that we're not. Keep stretching though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergerland Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 [quote name='D34th' timestamp='1285738277' post='2467851'] Is not that hard to see what I was trying to say, or may be it is... I'm not discussing if GOONS is guilty or no, what I'm saying is the VE lost an ally because (is allied with) GOONS, doesn't matter if Ninjas was who declared war or no. I'm not even taking in consideration if GOONS asked for it or no, what I'm saying is if VE wasn't allied with GOONS they wouldn't had lost this specific treaty. [/quote] We didn't lose an ally if you read what Ejay posted in the OP. [quote name='Ejayrazz' timestamp='1285735517' post='2467683'] I come here today to sadly say we no longer are allied with VE. Our first allies and only allies, we will always hold you in the highest esteem. I do not care what anyone says, does, or feels, we still consider you brothers despite the paperless trail. No one can dispute it because us Ninjas still feel it, despite the e-lawyers. And if danger knocked on your door, we'd ride from the depths and punch them $%^&@#s in the face. [/quote] You'll notice he said that the Ninjas would still come to VE's defense in a time of need. The treaty, yeah that's gone, but the ally isn't. And if somebody was going out of their way to hurt The Ninjas I'd support defending them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) Hopefully VE and some other alliances making the mistake of tying themselves to GOONS will see that it will lose them better allies and decrease their potential to sign treaties with the more worthwhile alliances out there.

In my mind, and I'm sure the minds of our allies, there is a significant different between "hiding" or "relying" and what is going on here. Whether or not you agree, though, we're still at the same point, waiting for that glow on the horizon. So I'm not going to be inclined to labour the point.
