Aeternos Astramora Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 This deserved a thread? Honestly, this just seems like a very transparent attempt to make yourself look good (by doing something any alliance would do) and to make someone else (a former archenemy, no less) look bad.

Bloodjewel Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 I for one am glad MK is taking the high road here by refusing to escalate this incident. NPO you should take note of how a true hegemony handles their foreign diplomacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezstar Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 STA kicked Voytek out of MK's embassy on our boards. Somehow, that managed to not make it to it's own post on the OWF. Funny, that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorbolt Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 [quote name='Alterego' timestamp='1289890149' post='2514251'] Its a public reaction to something minor that NPO would have reacted to. You can hardly react the exact same way and go to war for it because you took them down for doing things like that. [/quote] If we reacted in the same way NPO has in the past we would be at war right now. We have responded differently. This was actually outlined in the op.

Diogenes Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 [quote name='CobaltShine' timestamp='1289889310' post='2514228'] Interesting how this drama is being made by some other alliance, don't you think? It's also interesting when one thinks of the possibility that this is just an attempt to pass the bad-PR-ball. Also, I second Dochartaigh: [/quote] Unless you believe that we conspired to have the NPO censor or otherwise create problems for our diplomats, I fail to see how we can be held accountable for inciting this dispute.
