Man, I must be a glutton for punishment. I realize this will only incite more nonsense, but I cannot stand by while you accuse me of lying.
You still believe you were right to attack my country because I was using too many one jeep supply units? You first told me to repsond to your pm or be attacked. When I didn't log in for a day, You had Crossdale message me with an ultimatum, to respond or be attacked. When I responded immediately with an apology, you then sent me a message telling me to build corps in your country, and that you were going to build corps in my country. You also said, keep the lines of communication open, it would be best for peace. Then, after I took some of my troops out of the garrisons, you sneak attacked me, twice. I have not recieved any communication from you since. Fortunately, I was online during the attacks. I spoke with Dizzy, in irc, who convinced that this was an isolated incident, that you "sometimes couldn't keep your finger off the trigger." I let it go.
Duke Cobra's country stated that it was "at war" just after you moved in next door to him. Can't prove it was you, but _someone_ declared on him. It could have been a treaty dec, as well, so I let it go.
As for these 'rounds' of attacks, they continue. Yesterday Tatooed Priest attacked and took a country belonging to T Banguel, setting off all kinds of treaty decs. He is deployed in the navy currently, I believe, and may not be able to check in on his slaves every week. I don't know him very well, and AF includes many older players who may go inactive for periods of time, so I let it go.
I do think that we should keep the lines of communication open, especially before we attack each other's countries. I may be wrong again, as I am still new to all of this. T Banguel or David may have given permission, or I may just not know how quickly inactive countries fade back to c3's... but don't you think that conquering other's Fedmate's countries without warning is a slight bit more aggressive than posting bad jokes on the forum, attempting to place sanctions, filling garrisons, and other "AF atrocities?"
You said earlier in this thread, "You [Aqua] in turn, took things into your own hands and sanctioned Austia. That was an aggressive action by a SENIOR AF member on a UC member. Not to mention you never obeyed this...
Any percieved violation must be discussed between representatives of the United Confederation and Allied Forces for a 72 hour period before any action will be taken.
Black and White."
I do not condone Aqua's actions, but where was my 72 hour grace period for explaining that I was learning how to use a game function, not preparing for war? I am dissapointed that the United Confederation allows such behavior, but what am I to do to defend myself and my fellow fedmates? Declare on you and be wiped off the map by any number of UC vets? I hope that in the future the largest Federation on Golden Rainbow will treat its neighbors with more respect, and take leadership in making GR a safe and fun place to grow and develop.
Our perspectives are quite different, General Dirt. As you can see I have been patient with you. I ask only the same in return.
Cujo, shaker of beehives.
