On the contrary, Balder has always upheld its obligations, including when our allies have suffered a coup. If you are maintaining to the contrary, please specify how we fall short of our treaty obligations so we can discuss that. The last time we had this discussion, you demurred from answering my post.

I hope your other allies are taking note of what they can expect from an alliance with Balder.
When TSP originally tried to rescind the treaty in July 2016, you attributed the alliance's failure to Glen-Rhodes and argued that TSP's foreign affairs agenda amounted only to antagonism. Now, your position is that the situation is "entirely Balder's fault". Your new view simply reflects your change of affiliation.

Unibot III wrote:Here is the contested clause, Article 7:7) This treaty shall be considered void if a signatory region makes a post to that effect in their embassy on the other signatories forums. If this is done, the treaty shall cease to be in effect 5 days after a signatory has declared their intent to leave the treaty. This shall not be considered an act of hostility.
Note, this clause does not require prior notification before an announcement is made for TSP's intentions to leave the alliance. Rather, it's saying that five days after the treaty is announced to be voided, the void shall take effect. So quite literally the only thing Balder is complaining about in this statement is that Balder was cut out of five more days of the treaty-in-effect.
Unibot III wrote:In theory, TSP could just clarify that the treaty will remain in effect till March 06 as per Article 7 - and condemn Balder for once again using every available opportunity for catty politics.
Unibot III wrote:This behaviour, along with its complete lack of following through on the terms of this alliance, is precisely why TSP is leaving TSP-Balder alliance.
Cormactopia Prime wrote:As I have already noted, Balder failed to uphold its treaty obligations to the South Pacific during Hileville's coup and to the original Osiris Fraternal Order, as uncomfortable as the latter is for me to bring up. Your defense of Balder's actions was so laughable that I decided to let that defense stand on its own, supportive of my argument in the minds of most reasonable people, which is what I intend to continue doing.
Cormactopia Prime wrote:You're ignoring that there was a long stretch between the Cabinet's attempt to rescind the treaty, which was ultimately overruled, and the actual repeal of the treaty. During that interim period, Balder did everything it could to make clear that an alliance was no longer tenable, and absolutely nothing of substance to try to preserve the alliance. That interim period resulted in several people changing their minds in regard to who is now at fault for the collapse of the alliance, which is why rescinding the treaty -- which was controversial when the Cabinet first attempted it -- sailed through the Assembly without any disagreement now.

Balder has upheld the terms of the alliance and the assertion to the contrary is unfounded.
3) Neither signatory shall harbour an individual who attempts to overthrow the regime of the other signatory.
4) Both signatories agree to provide diplomatic and military support to one another if requested, in the event of an invasion or attempted coup against a signatory region if requested.

Bullshit. I'll give you the five day thing.
Balder quite obviously violated both of these terms during the last coup -3) Neither signatory shall harbour an individual who attempts to overthrow the regime of the other signatory.
4) Both signatories agree to provide diplomatic and military support to one another if requested, in the event of an invasion or attempted coup against a signatory region if requested.

I really don't want to bother logging into Balder. Could whatever that is not be posted here?

This seems to be dissolution for the sake of dissolution, and both sides saying there's no value in the treaty while simultaneously blaming the other. Is there truly anything we cannot reconcile so Balder and TSP can be friends again, instead of wasting all this time arguing whose fault it was?

On each occasion, they have advanced comically weak claims that Balder breached our treaty, while indisputably breaching the treaty in the process themselves. After their previous statement, despite having good cause to terminate, Balder left the door open and gave TSP a choice, as we believed a more positive relationship was possible if TSP took a more constructive approach. Predictably, TSP has rejected the chance to repair relations, as is their prerogative. However, Balder is not going to sit back while a false narrative that we mistreated TSP or broke our treaty is repeated as gospel by members of TSP and opportunistic opponents of Balder. The reality is actually the other way round.
Just like you didn't collude with the NPO during the Lazarus coup? Balder's credibility is being stretched mighty thin here, and you aren't helping it much.

Oh god Onder's new reply. I have to hold in the laughter or I'd wake my roomamtes up.
The maturity and professionalism of TSP's justice's is an amazing sight to behold. Where do they find such goons?
Solorni - Today at 8:46 AM
pretty sure TSP is inactive

Pretty sure you're wrong

I'm just confirming that you're wrong

okay lol

This doesn't seem like the place for sniping about each other's regions.
Solorni - Today at 9:01 AM
not really sniping
Sam111 - Today at 9:01 AM
Just like you didn't really fail to fulfil your end of the treaty
Anyway Cormac's right, there are better places to take this

A couple things:
1. Does laughter generally indicate temper tantrums in Balder?
2. You clearly were taking a baseless cheap shot at the South Pacific via CAIN's server. Everyone knows it. Why deny it?
