Let's start the meme war.

To whom it may concern, The Fighting Pacifists declare neutrality in the Carthago-House Stark conflict. This issue is firmly between Carthago and House Stark. We condemn the involvement of third parties. We were not approached by either side for mediation of the issue, however we will continue to offer our role as an impartial negotiator. We do not support the war, and we hope for a quick and diplomatic resolution. Signed, Shwin, Shark Jonny, Defender of Peace

We did not want to comment on the cancellation, but your post is deliberately misleading and demands a response. When you invited us to create a sphere, we were offered a “partnership” and a leading role that we would use to promote our own security. In hindsight, you lied to us and disregarded our input and your obligations to us. We asked you to leave Oasis on good-terms and with proper notice and instead you blindsided them. We asked you to remain quiet with us until the dust settled and instead you went on Thalmor Radio and declared you no longer wished to be a competitive alliance, that your diplomats were untrained, and that all your recent treaties and cancellations were mistakes. You publicly expressed, in no uncertain terms, that we are an undesirable ally just as you have done today. We forgave that and many other political blunders and worked tirelessly with you to restore your reputation. All we asked for was a fraction of the respect we had given you. You ignored your obligations to us and began adding new members to the sphere without consulting us, all of which you informed us were actively hostile to us. We did not focus on the enemies of the past, we agreed to let bygones be bygones, it was you that told us they were still hostile! This treaty ultimately concluded because rather than be neutral or mediate you decided to threaten us with war. They attempted to force us to surrender and accept unfair peace-terms which included 2.5 billion and then 5 billion in ransom for Winter alliance, reparations, censorship, and a public apology on the Orbis World Forums which you agreed with them. We didn't agree to these terms and instead paid a small reparation for the damage we did, and we made a private apology to preserve the sphere in return for the deletion of Winter. Yesterday, Eriko suggested we should maintain our treaty with you for the duration of the global war and sometime after until we could find new allies. Camelot agreed to this, and we considered it an inviolable diplomatic promise. We have learned over the course of our treaty with you that your promises mean very little and so we were bothered but ultimately not surprised when you broke it today by issuing this cancellation. We once more apologize for participating in this conflict but remind you that it was your political decisions that led to it. If we were to offer any parting advice, consult your allies before signing new treaties! We wish you the best with your new venture and hope relations will improve when you gain some more experience. Hopefully this sets the record straight. We ultimately have no ill will towards you and look forward to continuing to interact with you and other alliances in this great community.

The Fighting Pacifists and The Armed Peacekeepers settle down for the evening on their sofa of choice. The journey from Oasis was difficult. They were sure of their direction, but they didn't always choose the safest or easiest way. Their traveling companions B.L.O.C. had long gone to bed. Camelot rooted through the fridge for something to eat as a knock came to the door. TFP answered and found their old friend Black Skies at the door. They’d gone through some changes and wanted to be called Thunderstruck now. TFP shrugged and lit another while pointing to a comfy sofa. No sooner had Thunderstruck taken a seat than a reptilian hiss issued from Camelot and then lunged in an attack. TFP looked on in momentary confusion before setting its smoke down in annoyance. The lizard continued to beat on Thunderstruck as TFP asked them to stop. With a sigh, TFP picked up its bat. SMH. Could have focused on the future, on the friends you have, not the past and all the enemies you’ve made. TFP forced the bat between them and ushered Camelot out the door. TL;DR- Bonk-Bonk m’f’er, be gone in 72 hours. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pz2i4vNBfmM

Greetings to the Gentlefolk of Orbis, I come before you today with eventful and wonderful news. As you may have noticed, there have been a few changes in the Orbis landscape and in our wonderful alliance The Fighting Pacifists. First of all, we would like to thank Velyni Vas for his service leading TFP and we wish him well in Rose. In his stead, fate (and therefore TFP) has decided to hand me the reigns to this mighty force. Obviously this is a large undertaking. For this reason I have asked the most powerful family in Orbis to grant us shelter as we grow. They accepted. Oddly enough, The Johnsons official representative (who also happens to be me) not only took us in as a guest, they decided to sign the adoption papers. With that, I present to you the new edition of The Johnsons official flag to include the newest member. Behold: Accepting an alliance with our troubled past into their family is just another example of the mighty The Johnsons generosity. Sure some may claim that this just further bolsters our position as a hegemony within Orbis, but unfortunately the same people who make these claims fail to ask a very important question: 'is a hegemonic The Johnsons a bad thing?' You but only need to look at our ability to give and love to know the answer. Yes we are the bloc you love to fear, but we no longer need to be the bloc that you fear to love. I understand that a large Johnson family can be scary at first, but as people give it a try they appreciate the thought more and more. My friends, the time of The Johnsons is here. Our enemies will continue to fall (I'm looking at you Oasis Baskin) while we stand tall.

For whatever reason the other one wasn't letting me get into the member or government channels. This server will also act as The Johnsons bloc server.

Speaking as a member of an Immortals Protectorate and a former member of TFP, I am hoping that we get some news as to what they are planning on doing now. The first thing that springs to mind is if this changes things in relation to their current war with Quack.

While checking out NPO list (that's finally work again). I shouldn't help but notice that the alliance that brave and beautiful Black Knight, have done the most damage against is The Fighting Pacifists. That got me curius, because The Fighting Pacifists joined the war on the side of BK, as seen on the wiki. Where they bravely and beautifully fought together. But the wiki didn't say anything about why BK are now fighting with TFP. https://politicsandwar.fandom.com/wiki/Global_War_14 In fact accoding to the wiki TFP should have left the war, but then again you can never trust the wikis. So i checked the forum, and i found nothing. And still i shouldn't help but wonder what happened? Afterall they make up such a big part of BK positive net damage, that they have worked so hard for. And we can't have anyone accusing brave and beautiful BK of duing anything wrong. Afterall that might lower their self esteem. So i like to ask BK, what happened? Did they cheat on you? Did TFP say something rude? Or did you just grow apart? I like for everyone to be positive and respectful, we need to keep this a safe space for brave and beautiful Black Knights.

In Orbis, the United Hoods were gettin’ clean. They were selling Steel and Oil, instead of cocaine and other contraband. I mean I guess it was clean, we also traded Uranium...which is actually...pretty radioactive...so I guess that’s a bit dirty….huh…. Oh right! Back to what I was doin’. Narrating. So they were on the streets of Midwestern US, lookin’ for more alliances to be friends with. It was a sunny day, Lake Michigan was looking as blue and unclean as ever. The blue color was from chemicals. It wasn’t from the sky. Yeah Orbis is pretty polluted, feels bad. Poor Lake Michigan. Anyways, the Supreme Council, Ayo, Grimes, Johann, Blitz, and Creed, were chillin by the shore. “You think if I put my applesauce in this water, it’ll disintegrate?” Creed asks holding a strangely, unnecessarily large jar of Mott’s Applesauce above his head. Not sponsored by the way. “I’m pretty sure even steel can disintegrate in that ‘water’, “ Johann replies as he brainstorms for his “The Word on The Street” article. “At least you can say everything’s biodegradable now.” That’s when a strange group of peeps show up. Ayo and Blitz look on as they grew closer into view. They step onto the shore and one of them says, “Are you the United Hoods?” “Depends on who’s asking,” Ayo replies. “I’m Victorystar. I’m from The Fighting Pacifists.” “The Fighting Pacifists?” Creed says as he pops his head into view. “That name don’t make any damn se-” Grimes covers his mouth and pulls him away. Creed is still muttering inaudible words as he gets dragged away. “Anyways...maybe we can help you. A protectorate maybe?” “Ooo a protectorate. Sounds fun,” Blitz says. Creed breaks free and shouts, “BUT YOUR NAME DOESN’T MAKE ANY SEN-” Grimes tackles Creed and chains him to the car. “Aluminum chains. Strong and light,” Grimes says with a smirk. “You know what else is strong and light? My will," Creed says. Grimes then tapes his mouth. Victorystar looks at Creed, then back at Ayo. “We accept,” Ayo says with a nervous laugh. And...yeah, that’s 100% how it happened. I was there. The chains were really tight. So yeah! United Hoods is proudly protected by The Fighting Pacifists!

So, yeah, since everyone else in our sphere is getting on with this I suppose we need a treaty. An ODP, to be exact. Now let’s hope we don’t screw this up like, ahem, the ‘incident’ that just happened a few days ago. ARTICLE I: Sovereignty Both parties agree to respect each other’s sovereignty, and agree to conduct internal affairs without external interference, meaning that no party will conduct any act that may or will infringe the other’s sovereignty. ARTICLE II: Non – aggression The two parties will not engage in any form of aggressive conduct with each other, that includes but is not limited to: declarations of war, espionage, aiding an enemy in times of peace OR war. ARTICLE III: Intelligence Both parties will share information with each other if it aids the other party or affects the safety and security of the other. False information will not be spread. ARTICLE IV: Optional, but encouraged defence and/or aid In the event that one of the parties is attacked or threatened, the other party is not obligated to defend but is strongly encouraged to. They may also aid the threatened party in any way, such as but not limited to: funding, espionage, resource trade and military action. ARTICLE V: Non – chaining If one of the parties declares a war on an enemy and is the aggressor, the other party is not, in any way, obligated to help. They may, but at their own risk. ARTICLE VI: Withdrawal If one or both parties wishes to withdraw from the pact, there must be at least 48 hours notice prior to the withdrawal. Afterwards, a clear 72 hours of non - aggression will be put in place between the two parties. Signed by all leaders of TFP Signed by all leaders of OP

The internet is essential for the workings of Orbis. Whether it be WiFi, dial-up, 4G, or cable, all who dwell within this world use the internet, for work, for play, and, among other things, watching cat videos. However, for such an essential service, it is unreliable, expensive, and quite frankly has terrible service issues. Too long the people of Orbis have suffered under the boot of the ISP! Comcast! End this practice of terrible customer service, slow internet connections, and flaming internet modems! Shape up, or face the consequences! Until our demand is met, TFP will oppose your expansion into Norse Scandinavia at all costs! YES, I FINALLY GOT TO DO THIS! INVISITEXT! Let fly the new flag o' war! BEHOLD! SUDDEN TEst NOSTALGIA! TLDR: TFP hereby honors it's call to arms from Ragnarok and declares war on WildFire, otherwise known as WiFi. Good luck to all folks out there, and let's have a good fight! Except you Ajit Pai, you can screw off. Also, In preparation of the inevitable NPO counter, a statement from me: "The fire is of warm now." -quichwe10, Facilitator of The Fighting Pacifists. Oh god oh god the anti-libertarians are coming Addendum: The month long mobilization has paid off! Nobody expects the TFP mobilization!

Basically we'd agreed on this about 2-3 months ago and even notified all our allies... Then nobody actually sat down to write the treaty... Then we got busy/forgot. So here we are making it all official and stuff. o7 TFP-Guardian MDP Article I – Sovereignty The parties shall respect the sovereignty of each other, and neither party shall engage in any conduct which may impinge on the sovereignty of the other. Article II – Non-aggression The parties shall not engage in aggressive actions against each other, including conducting espionage or declaring war on each other, or providing aid to enemies of either party. Article III – Intelligence Each party must share with the other party intelligence or information that relates to or affects the safety or security of the other party. Article IV – Mutual Defense If one of the parties is subject to an attack from another alliance or rogue nation, the other party is obligated to provide military or financial assistance. An attack on one party is an attack on both parties. Article V – Non-Chaining This is a non-chaining treaty. Should either party declare a war, then receive counter attacks from other alliances, there is no obligation for the other to come to their assistance. Article VI – Termination If one of the parties wishes to terminate this treaty, the terminating party must give 48 hours prior notice to the other party. Neither party shall engage in aggressive actions against each other for 72 hours after the termination of this treaty.

Earlier this evening, Viridian Entente attacked The Fighting Pacifists. We have taken notice of this, and have attempted to contact VE leadership about this. The response from VE's leadership has been... less than forthcoming, and we suspect that they may be afflicted with dementia or amnesia, as they have asked us who and what they were. These acts of unprovoked aggression and bureaucratic red (possibly Viridian to them) tape will not be tolerated. These VE raiders have also sought help from Zuler of UPN, so we have also taken notice of him too. As such, TFP hereby declares an aggressive diagnostic attempt to find out what has gone wrong with the Viridian Entente. We hope that we will be able to find answers and wish a speedy recovery to their leadership. We look forward to the fight ahead, and hope our opponents will have fun too. If they wish to explain or contact us, our door is always open. While I'm at it, I shamelessly promote our discord channel (YES WE GOT ON IT RECENTLY!) https://discord.gg/xxrj58W does this look lime? T L D R : T F P recognizes hostilities with V E

I am making a statement to apologize for the wars of nations from T$, Tfp, arggh and charming friends.
