GOoNS is a dead alliance, GOoONaS is currently frustrating those of you not in peace mode, a goon is a nickname for a member of Something Awful. If you really need to know the back story you could use your googler. I don't see what is insulting about protecting nations from raids. If you can you can, if you can't you can't.

That said, highlighting their hypocrisy when they do so. Thus why some would see it as insulting where others may not. Others seem to take such behavior as an offense when it suits them though they don't really care either way or they actually think it's a good idea. It would of course, depend on the person in question and their feelings on the issue. That said, it could be an insult. Depends on who you ask and what their real feelings are on it which of course no one could really gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alterego Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Antoine Roquentin' timestamp='1298421201' post='2642148'] Who did they disband exactly? There's Norden Verein and IAA, who else am I missing? I don't think the alliances I've mentioned hold grudges with Sparta, FOK, etc. over it. Sparta and FOK gave their portion of the reps to MK, who had suffered under the NPO. I don't think the leaderships of those alliances would refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing. [/quote] Over it, just like that. NPO are being squashed for a second time, this time for [b]no reason[/b]. Sparta threw a few quid to MK and MK forgave them. NPO got well beaten then paid out the highest reps ever demanded did nothing for a year and are getting trounced again. Sparta did more than just one thing they took part in the attempt to forcably disband my alliance. [u]Unlike others in that war Sparta was never held accountable[/u] for any past actions the way the rest were. Their day they answer for past crimes will come too.

He is insinuating you are a gross liar and exaggerator. There.. make more sense? He's also insinuating you're making up these lies because you lack the honor to war with reason. In short. You're evil. What a half-thought one-liner. Is this seriously the only response you could come up with? [/quote]I can read, but there was nothing to respond to. The honourable gentleman created a linguistic impasse which I had no intention of walking into. You can say "you're bad" and I can say "no I'm not" for years, in fact that has already happened and is continuing to happen. The fact is, you don't know whether or not I have been offended by NPO's actions, so telling me I haven't been is objectively wrong and you're stupid for doing it. No, you're evil. What now !@#$%*??? You're saying nothing. The only difference between my previous post and the one I quoted, is you're taking more words to say nothing with. [b][Edit][/b] Reading on a bit, it's pretty funny that you can accuse someone of an inability to interpret simple English.
