Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
we don't whine much afaik. I see one post about 'bashing' by crumpet and that was justified, and everyone has written a post like that in their time on bushtarion so that's hardly call for saying we whine all the time
And about bashing the lower alliances: we have ID lists of alliances that don't defend, they simply 'don't', so you Cyrus, are telling me that instead of hitting targets where i'm guaranteed land and probably a few kills, i should target an alliance that i won't get through on even *if* i tried to bash my way through with all my ally mates? jeez, that's smart.... :roll:
and we have organized maybe one or two ally attacks this whole round, it's DW, we're just too lazy. The closest we get to organized attacks are these hits on ID lists we have that don't defend us: where 3-4 of us hit a coupla targets (we're usually 1 to a tick, with a few occasions where there might be 2 on a tick) and then a few solos join in, and a few of of smaller ally players come in to follow up for land. I'd hardly call that bashing, it's barely waving
Let me reiterate for your inner idiot, Cyrus, 3-4 targets, 1-2 to a tick...
As far as declaring on Pest goes, i think it was for ***** and giggles, we get a fair bit of inc from Pest so figured we might as well give them longer injury returns for when we defend against them Can you blame us? We never said we were going to kill Pest, or if we did it was drug addled and alcohol riddled foolishness
We're DW, we play to have fun. And we're having fun, are you?

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
Perhaps you'd like to back up that AJs request with some evidence?
On topic, I'm a fan of the idea where alliance's submit stuff to an impartial team who sort out what goes up on GPols, whether it's helpers or a group specifically chosen for the purpose. GPols as it is now is a waste of space, it only fuels frustration and misunderstandings.
So yeah, either make it relevant, or get rid of it and move it back to the forums, where everyone can have a say. Forums activity has definately dropped off over the last few rounds.

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
Emmm you state you do not use it and you do not create threads in this post
2 Days later you create a thread about war, btw using globalpols for a war dec is a political action as whether it is your intention or not it alerts other allies and solos to a war situation which they will monitor to see if they can steal free acres so politically it is a good move to do so as it will keep your enemy receiving incomings even when your not sending, if you are too stupid to realise this will happen then i suggest speaking to some of your ally members who have experience of manipulating politics e.g Tim

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
well first of all the war declaration wasnt aimed to make anyone hit Dw and ive turned down many offers of help to hit DW. first of all because thats low, secondly we dont need it and thirdly we are doing a good enoguh job as it is.
k thanks byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Tim posted on GP, he will tell you i was reluctant to post on there.
when i first stated we dont create threads it was meant as we dont make threads to moan or about resistances etc.
now melnibone, i may be an idiot you may think i contradict myself (which i dont, you jsut choose to read whatever gives you the best angle to have a good comeback from)
get over yourself.

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
hmmm well its not a question of getting over myself its simple facts
you post you dont create threads, nowhere in your original post does it say except war threads, you've been caught being a hypocrite and every post since is just digging the hole deeper
as for not using it as a political tool 2nd post on your thread in Global Pols
From: KHaoS [Leader], 24th Jan, 13:07
As leader of Khaos, I would like to say that we had no clue that anyone else was attacking DW on the two strikes that we lead. Apologizes to DW for it not looking like a one on one battle. DW deserves a one on one battle.
So within half a day other allies are 'joining in' are you really that naive that you think people will not take advantage? either way ignorance is never an excuse, global politics (even war declarations) are politics and you used them to your advantage
So emmmm the cry of hypocrite still stands pity the facts dont back up your excuses so you can wriggle out of it maybe you should get over yourself :lol:

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
maybe if you knew anything or looked into anything you'd be able to talk facts? khaos had been hitting DW. we attacked them after khaos. DW them played the "we're getting bashed card" when infact we'd never raped Dw with khaos.
and about the second post in my GP let me jsut think who posted that, probably you or another nobo in your alli that doesnt know anything.
again go away read all the FACTS fully come back and try again. you fail to prove anything other than speculation.
*he shoots, he scores*
*bows*

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
Haha so not only do you drum up support for a war against DW with a global pols post you actually picked a fight after theyd been raped by Khaos my god your so good
And my alliance is Enigma you know the one thats been raping your land since you stopped having 5 other allies to attack us with? So not from me or anyone in my nobo ally lol (in case you have problems reading or thinking that was Khaos)

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
Why not make the global politics a mite more strict in what can be posted:
War declarations: When an ally declares war on another, they get a newscast with one short statement
"Last night at 02.00 GMT "ONEally" declared war on "GonnaHurtBad". The MO of ONEally releashed a statement to the effect that This gonna hurt, but nuff said, we're gonna rape your acres and steal your women!.
The other ally gets a chance to reply:
The Leader of GonneHurtBad replied to the declaration with Yeahyeahyeah, we'll let the LETs do the talkin!
After that both allies can choose once per game-week (i.e 7 hours) to release an update: all gains and losses in the war between the two allies is then posted with a short statement:
Reports show that ONEally so far have killed 1,300,891,997 billions worth of GonnaHurtBad's staff, for a loss of only 677,052,880 billion. They have also bribed 123,041,077 billions worth of their enemies staff. In total 12061 acres have been captured. The leader of ONEally commented on the reports with: Everything is going according to plan.
Simmilar for Wars ending...
Add to that one single thread were all alliances who recruit get one newscast, and one thread were all alliances who go public or private gets one newscast.

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
A good suggestion Enrico, I definitely think that war declaration threads should be deleted if they are exceptionally old or have a severe lack of BRs and heavily populated with Spam. There is a lot of crap in G-Pols and every time I read them I end up wondering why I bothered. Maybe another solution is a forum link in G-Pols related to each war declaration so that all the spammers are still happy, but those of us who cba to read all their crap can view the BRs in G-Pols but can choose to avoid the forum link.

Re: Global Pols arrrggghh it is a pain to read
IMO-its boring. I read it to start with. but it seems like all lies misdirection threats and pointless rants. I like the idea. even as a solo. but i lost interest because im not in an alliance nor if i was would i be in the position to post. it seems like even with rotation of mo and co its a conversation between 10-15 people some of them are muppets. some of them need to get out more. and some of them are bullies.
so yess i agree
ive had one philosiphy. put your money where your mouth is. do the buisness then brag. pre fight bragging is all bs :bhead:
sure no one is falsing me to read global pols. so thats why im not. but its taking up space on my left side of the bushtarion page. on every page.
I cant hide it without hiding the whole of my main options. And why is it a main option. its not. even in an allaince theres only 3 ppl that can use that page at any point in time. and only about 10 alliances that use it to any great extent.
I wouldnt moan gripe whine and in general dick on the page. if i liked it. And id like it better if it was divided into different sections and moderated.
the possible sections sections
Global politics:
-War declerations
-moans/gripes/rants
-spam
-general chat.
-conspirocy theories
that way i could read and find anything that is relavent with out having to read boring pointless posts. with people posting offtopic. but by the time you do that its basically like forums. except its only for those who care enough, to lead an allaince or be of any position of responsibility within the alliance
