As of the time of this post - IRONFRONT has achieved White Purrs and 6 Month Cat NAP with those within and associated with Coalition B. IRONFRONT started this global expedition on the side of Coalition B, fighting until we secured White Peace with the opposition we are currently fighting for. We entered this war through means of the TCW Bloc and we have quickly come to the realization that this war is not our own. When we fought alongside our current opposition in Coalition B, we entered the war with certain set values and goals - on this new front, we lack both. This is what led us down the path to secure our peace with Coalition B and all associated. Additionally, tied to this notification of peace and naptime, we have concluded our time within the TCW Bloc and are issuing our 72 hour cancellation notice. Although we have friends throughout the political realm of Orbis, we feel that our internal values and beliefs are not a match for the bloc at this time. We do hope all sides of this war come together to find a solution and conclusion to the current global war. It has been a pleasure fighting with and against both sides during the war - we have learned many lessons, gained much experience, and most of all grew closer together as a community within IronFront. tl;dr - IRONFRONT achieves White Peace & 6 Month NAP with Coalition B & Associates - additionally activated 72 hour cancellation with TCW Bloc and I guess COL B likes cats. Signed For IRONFRONT: -The IRONFAM Signed For OD/Col B -'Use list of sigs from the last peace announcement'

While normally I'm not opposed to war, and have enjoyed quite a few long wars and series of wars with my dear friend @Prefonteen and a number of Arrgh Admirals. The toxicity pouring from one particular side makes it hard to enjoy. Mockery of dead people Declared intent to get nations to delete and alliances to disband (Including a request in peace terms to allow two members of the community to be rolled indefinitely) Praising nation deletions Making children eat animal food Just not an environment that is particularly fun. For two months I was literally able to do nothing except buy credits( which I didn't because I wouldn't have been able to use them anyways, it would have just been a waste) and log in. The only actions I was able to take. I tried to obtain peace from day one and and was denied along with my allies every attempt. At least I can log in and launch an attack now.

Seriously man? You're working with people who have tried to destroy my community and you're asking how much I enjoy trying to fricking keep it together? Not cool.

That's not my server friend, it's tCW's server. I am but a humble guest in it, much like I am a humble guest in about 7 other servers. I also have 3 servers of my own. You will never have complete information based on logs, for I designed this impossibly and unneccessarily complicated structure with the explicit purpose of denying you your covert victory.

GOONS has me chained up in the basement, this is the one message I can send out before Jazz comes back and catches me on the forums. Help, please, I can't get out. This is my only chance

Well I'm just glad that my baby from 2015 is getting attention and I can make my first shitpost in years. What better way to spend a Friday night than looking at logs. To be clear, I don't really give a shit about this game and you all know I have no love or super hatred towards BK so hopefully this post is fairly conclusive. I still run BK's forums and BKNet was 90% created by myself. The entire banking aspect as created by myself but I have not maintained the application since early 2017. Tiber and George have maintained and added to the application since. I can say with fairly certain confidence that George did in fact abuse BKNet to remove members from BK and had the help of an accomplice. Of course the database password for BKNet is stored in an environment file and George had access to that password. The password was not changed after George left BK. There are only three people that I am aware of that have had access to and that is myself, Tiber, and George. This is how George obtained the database password. BKNet does have the ability to remove members from the alliance. Through an Internal Affairs module that managed the upgrade training of the applicants, George and his accomplice removed members from the alliance. George used phpMyAdmin (which, why the hell did I not remove that program?) to delete the logs that track these kinds of things. It is clear that while George's accomplice removed the members from the alliance, George cleaned up the logs in the database. Fortunately, Apache keeps logs of every request and yes, I really did look through them. You can clearly see the GET and POST requests to the specific endpoints in the Internal Affairs module of BKNet by his accomplice to remove the members and the specific endpoints of phpMyAdmin utilized by George to modify the database. Why do I know this is George? Well, this is why I said "fairly certain confidence." The IP address involved in this attack matches the same location of all the IP address that George used to login to the BK forums. Additionally, the only way for someone to have access to the BKNet database is to have had access to the environment file, which out of myself, Tiber, and George, the only one with a motive here is George. As for his accomplice, all I know is he is from France and uses the OnePlus A6013. So while I can't say for certain that George conducted this "attack," I would say it is fairly clear that he was involved. Additionally, everything that BKNet does requires some sort of user input to initiate the action. If this was a script that went "rogue," then the script would've been initiated with an internal IP and it is clear that it was not. BKNet was not compromised; it did exactly what it was told. This was a failure of basic security and BK has learned the lesson the hard way.

Immortals are doing great! We've gotten most of IQ below 50% aircraft in their non-VM nations. Well done friends!

I mean aren't you one of those players than joins micros, manipulates yourself to a gov position and then steals their banks? I really don't think anyone of your stature and reputation has any right to try to reprimand other alliances when I'm sure you've done far worse to allies and acquaintances alike. You are near as scummy as players get in this game from an IC perspective.

https://politicsandwar.fandom.com/wiki/Oktoberfest "BoC will pay $50,000,000 each to SK and tS as reparations for the damage done" "UPN agrees to pay a total of $300 million, 30k gasoline, and 30k munitions to Seven Kingdoms, The Syndicate, and Terminus Est, as reparation for damages done." 'DEIC agrees to pay a total of 25k steel, 25k gasoline as reparations for damages done. DEIC also agrees to pay a total of 350million (300mil as reparations for damages, and 50million as a fine to Mensa for DEIC being [email protected]#$)" It's not our problem that members of your coalition have decided that reps are bad now that you're on the losing side

I don't think i've hidden my belief that you and select other more moderate voices would be far easier to work with than the hardliners we were made to negotiate with. The times you brought up compromises they were accepted fairly quickly. Perhaps your side's choice of "designated reps" speaks volumes of the willingness to peace of some elements, if not all.

I agree, this is war slot filling. This war is already over, and I won't reverse the action that has happened, but I am going to issue a moderation strike against the offender (George Clooney.) I don't see any reason why two nations of this size would do such little damage to each other unless it was a coordinated slot-fill.

Good evening, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your consideration of our situation. Unfortunately, recent estimates, educated guesses, and consultations with the wise woman in the cave have informed us that your concern for our wellbeing, though touching is unfounded. As the last week or so has shown, the immortals have ensured that your prognosis will not occur, due to the rapid intervention of our EMT (elephantine meatshield technique) strategy, coupled with recent advances in competence dynamic. If you have any more concerns about the state of our health, I will be happy to put them to rest for you. Simply reply to this post with your concerns, and news as to when your people plan to surrender. All the best, - Namukara

SOON.

Sphinx is the reasonable one here? Everyone close up shop, games over.

Bjorn, you post this 6 hours ago. It says on my phone that Epi said what you were replying to 8 hours ago. Yet, I can't find Epi's original post? I click the arrow thing to see it and I get an error message. Did Epi delete what you were replying to? Did Epi say that off-forum so there was no original post? What's going on there?

To tag on to this, it would be nice if we could input Nation IDs into the battle simulator and it auto fills for you rather than having to manually input all the data or better yet when you click battle simulator on the attack page it automatically fills in the data for that specific war.

When AK called it quits a lot of the members that still wanted to play P&W joined IF, they too have been fighting since day one for Col-B. In addition, IF started on Col-B and only recently joined Col-A, so when you say allies which do you refer to? The truth we find ourselves facing is that for many of IF's members we called Col-B allies as recently as a few weeks ago. The lines have become very blurred in this war and we feel a need to focus on our alliance, our family. Here is a picture of Jordan's awesome cat blanket.

Roq, are you okay?

There we go. I have gotten one warning point for posting “lol” in a thread in which I was reported again for an utterly frivolous reason. I was the accused the in the topic. There is no rule that says I am obligated to engage a frivolous and frankly borderline offensive report with more of a response than it deserves. I was the accused in the thread. It’s that simple. Secondly, I added an instance of a person (noctis) spamming my own thread into a thread about other instances of noctis’s behavior that was quietly deleted without any other apparent action. I was hit with a warning point despite clearly adding specific evidence about him spamming non-discussion forums. This is even more silly since it’s clearly good faith participation. If what is being enforced isn’t what is actually written what is the point of rules anyway? Either change the rules to reflect an actual standard, correct these warning points or drop the pretense of rules based moderation.

Thank you Karl. Not at all and no you don't. Since the advent of the tipping system it is actually profitable to play away games. So more people are willing to play just away games for tips. Therefor people can play more games per day then before because there are people willing to play away games. It's a very simple logic that you and others can not seem to grasp.

Raiding and trading can also "quintuple a nation's natural income" if they are active enough. One of the reasons I'm a whale now is that when I was a smaller nation I boosted my income significantly via trading. If someone is willing to invest at least an hour, probably more, to max out their games and make ~20 mill, I say let them. It's roughly the equivalent of selling a credit.

Sounds about right. Just remember that the TKR hierarchy of treaties is ODoAP > NAP > MDP and things should make more sense going forward.

Oh, and before I forget, since I'm sure this is a fact that is probably forgotten, DIEC's reps were their entire bank as """punishment""" for attempting to hide it and forcing them to take loans to pay off their reps. Unless we ask for all our enemies banks as compensation, any and all reps demanded are still effectively smaller than the precedent established in that war by TS-sphere. If anything, you should be grateful for our restraint and magnanimity in asking for relatively minor reps by comparison. However, I'm receptive to the idea of dusting off partisans rep hammer and using it on it's original wielder.

How is letting in some refugees from a war torn alliance immediately indicate aligning ourselves with KT? That is an example of not being pragmatic.

I'm aware there are ex KT members in the Syndicate, yes. I was unaware that this is a problem to you. If it is a problem to you, then I don't think Adrienne is the correct spokesperson to approach about that issue. I also don't think it is related to Chaos' peace negotiations as your side insists these negotiations are kept seperate. Please be consistent.

Congrats to both of you.

Welcome!! (I'd say more but im too lazy to type it.)

No. It was my mistake, and the bug was fixed as quickly as possible.

Read between the lines guys: IQ is broke, or needs money to compete. This is why they’re pushing for reps against you guys. If they had money, after 7 months they’d just peace. They need money to go forward because without it, they’d be at a disadvantage, not you at an advantage.

I'm gonna need a bit more acid to enjoy this.

Roq holds enough grudges for the rest of the game combined.

10% of all money currently in existance is Baseball Billions. I am not claiming that anyone here is guilty of cheating as I don't have proof, but, I am claiming that cheating is very easy, possible and hard to detect. This game is a strategy game and not cookie clicker, if I wanted a cookie clicker id play one, any edge should be completly strategic.

I see that you are an idiot. Feel free to give sheepy your personal info to be posted in the open for anyone to see. I have lived long enough to not be that stupid.

Forgive him, they are used to have all accounts connected to a single person

You cancelled a NAP and attacked us. I don't have to tell myself anything, I'm getting by just fine. TLE on the other hand, the future doesn't look bright.

The nation he was attacking was in Europe, that's probably what confused me xD. I live in the pacific, so ik my geography pretty well.

You too Kosta, have a good rebuild mate!

Now that's cringy.

Our enemies when they were beating us: "We won the war so you must pay us reps, that's how things work" Our enemies now: "How dare you demand reps? You're only asking for reps because you're poor and broke" We get it, you're hypocrites, spare us the waterworks and pay up already so we can all move on.

This has been handled, Alex. Although too poetic, the DoW mentions only TKR, TCW and some "neutral" alliances, against which Camelot is indeed in a state of war. The DoW is open again.

Spent a good majority of my time in "your old world" opposed to NPO, but you couldn't be more off the mark. They dominated from the very beginning, and arguably the world peaked with their defeat, and went into decline thereafter. So you can shelve the melodramatic world killers bull.

It's be a lot more cool if you could have some fun!

>The Galactic Republic has collapsed due to a coup cackles evilly

The fact that this thread has been up for 30 minutes and he hasn't responded leads me to believe he's been suspended again.

Mind you, this would be in conjunction with a number of other changes to the war system I have in mind: Assuming beige is removed from the game, I don't see why a nation couldn't "surrender" in any active war and have it automatically finish the war as if they lost (do the % infra damage and loot.) I suppose it might be an issue if you transferred all your money/rss away and then did a "surrender" and then received them back, but presuming there was some way to prevent that I don't have a problem with giving nations the option to end a war they expect to lose early. I know that's not what you proposed, but I want to add it to the discussion. Part of what I have in mind for changing the war system would be 1/3 rebuilds daily on all military units (not missiles/nukes/spies) such that rebuilding to 2/3 of your total military force is possible in any given double-buy. I think that eliminates the problem with needing time to rebuild and not getting it without beige.
