Hellbilly Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 While I know I am not a political bigwig on here and my opinion doesnt hold much weight, I will give it anyway. If this were a group of micro alliances doing the same thing, most of you would be like: "OMG, WTF.. you cant do that!" and proceed to curbstomp them into oblivion. No matter how you slice it up, or try to justify it, a fact is a fact. You attacked an alliance with no CB. An unprovoked act of aggression against any alliance has always been wrong. So now your saying that it is no longer wrong? Maybe whats wrong is the fact that you consider yourselves above the rules because you have no fear of repurcussions. What respect I HAD for the alliances involved , is all but gone. I know that really doesnt matter much, but, know this: I dont think I am the only one that feels this way.

TECUMSEH Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) I, too, am of no consequence to the game, but needless to say -- VE + MK = hilarity. I'm glad it's all laid bare. I'm not glad that I find myself agreeing with everything Alterego posts on this thread. My agreement ought to be sufficient cause for him to revise his opinions.

Very sad... Don't give yourself too much credit... Preempting a target is nothing new and you dont create anything... You just used a technic you criticized last war.

If we hadn't, who knows when you might have gathered the immense courage you needed to use superior numbers to strike a foe without any possibility of intervention. [/quote] Yeah... You should get everyone in line with the "tough guy attitude" [quote name='zeta defender']To be honest, where does that CB start and end as "we don't like you" can be OOC and IC. OOC: Hell this was the same justification that Hitler used to kill the Jews and take over the world, because, "he was creating the perfect world." Anyone who believed this will end any better is sadly mistaken. [/quote] In other words.... Baaaw baw baww baaaaw baw, baaaw baaw bwawawwaaaaaaaw. Baw baaaaaaaw, BAAAAAAAW!

Or so I understand. Once Legion was countered (probably by one or two Pandora's Box alliances), it would open the door for the NPO to counter, with allies, etc. I, again from my perspective, understand this simply to be Doomhouse taking the initiative and not letting the enemy choose the grounds to fight on. There is no question of whether or not Doomhouse and NPO were going to fight and it was made very clear for the last week that it was going to happen. Far as outrage and Doomhouse being as bad as NPO, NPO has a long and storied history of atrocities, while Doomhouse has none. Rather, the members of Doomhouse (yes, even GOONS) have done nothing but treat their enemies with respect in their defeats thus far. I don't know why anyone assumes this will be any different (besides the slogan everything must die, but hopefully you all know what propaganda is).
