Vanilla Napalm Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 [quote name='Locke' timestamp='1292809638' post='2545244'] The line is "it needs to be a separate announcement to be official." And as has been mentioned already, NEW was perfectly aware of the protection and even inquired about it in the original thread. It was already quite explicit and known, NEW knows this, everyone knows this, NEW just came up with it because they literally don't have anything better as a defense. [/quote] I've reiterated my statement three seperate times now, none of which even remotely denied the validity of the protection in itself. That i found the initial protection a half-@#$%& afterthought has no bearing on my ability to recognise it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kowalski Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Meh, everyone gets what they deserve. DF and their 'protectors' were either too arrogant or too lazy to post a proper protection notice, so deserve the grief, NEW didn't bother double-checking before raiding but something tells me that they didn't want/need to so are presumably happy to take all of the hassle they're getting. I just hope that no major alliances have to waste too much of their time sorting this mess out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Caparo Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Everyone complains from lack of stuff happening, NEW makes something happen, which could end in a war and all of a sudden almost everyone is against them.

Land of True Israel Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 [quote name='Comrade Craig' timestamp='1292819155' post='2545502'] Let's just throw away years of precedent because a few uninformed people (like yourself) are making baseless, arbitrary assertions. -Craig [/quote] Making a brief one liner response on the second page of a thread to announce protection has never been the precedent on Planet Bob. Traditionally, alliances would either make a separate thread, or post a reply directly after the initial post proclaiming their intentions to protect. If what you say was the "precedent", then you should easily be able to reference me to numerous threads and situations where official protection announcements where made, as casually, and vague as this one was. Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I patiently wait for the references. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
