Basically, once a pirate always a pirate, and your logic and excuses haven't improved since you left Arrgh. You've just found a place to grow safely while pretending to be respectable citizens. Just own it, guys, it's ballsier. You good sir hit the nail on the head. The veneer of respectable citizens. Some wear it to reign in there more aggressive nature. Others to cover their pixel loving nature. As such I respect posted treaties. I also cease fire when asked while my leader negotiates. I do not start fresh wars during negotiations. That I believe recaps the crux of the issue at hand. 2 Quote Legal Disclaimer: My opinions do not necessarily reflect of the opinions of my alliance, allies, enemies or neutrals.

It looks like both sides have a legitimate CB for a war. From CoS's perspective, members of UPN attacked CoS members. From UPN's perspective, CoS attacked a UPN member/ally. It appears that CoS is going to let it slide and let UPN off the hook, while UPN is desperately trying not to get rolled. So it's either an honest mistake on UPN's behalf and they are trying to fix it. Or it's that CoS outright attacked UPN and her allies, but UPN is scared of getting rolled so they're just going to bend over. Either way, I'm surprised you're choosing not to tread carefully in this thread. Best wishes and Godspeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do explain to me one day though what "excuses" I needed or used while in Arrgh. Excuse me, but I don't remember! Never change, Ripper. You were good Arrgh, I don't recall you ever trying to excuse a raid under any moral reason, you just raided "because I can." Also, where are the PnWballs, man? Those were great.

Do you mean in FA policy, or personally? Personally, Krieg seemed like good people the few times I spoke with him, and I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn he had many friends.

There is no wonder why people reroll to join Arrgh, raiding is fun. The difference between a pirate and another alliance raiding is that most alliances will peace out of raids when you ask them without a doubt, but pirates won't give a shit, for them, getting countered is just another game mechanic. Calling Ripper a pirate doesn't make sense, because if he still had pirate mentality, he wouldn't have posted this, he would've just rolled already lol Edited September 1, 2018 by Radoje 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

丂ħ̧i̧₣ɫ̵γ͘ ̶™ Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I love how everyone is debating raiding and acting like you need to undergo years of special forces training to become a raider. This was obviously bait to see if it'd trigger a bigger conflict as the NAP is basically over and because most AAs wouldn't take this kinda shit. Unfortunately, they chose wrong and picked on UPN, the same alliance that betrayed Rose and went in to die against KT. UPN has no semblance of rep or social awareness. No one joins this game or plays it for years to ask, am I good enough to join UPN? Can I and should I sign UPN? Man, when is UPN gonna shake up the game again. UPN is like community college, it shouldn't even be in your safety school category. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
