Why don't raiders just form their own Libcord? They could call it Raidercord or something.

I guess I could have substituted the Hawks in instead. The statement still holds true.

Shouldn’t you be busy in the SC knowing absolutely nothing about me but still making declarative statements?

I particularly liked the part where you ran away from the thread and have subsequently ignored it after I called your lies out.

Well no. TBR were bragging while wholesale cheating, don't think we can put TBH in the same category as them. You can certainly try but you won't be making many friends that way.

I'm not going to pretend I'm an expert on NS history as a lot of it is way before my time, but even TBR's successor regions got into trouble for cheating and got deleted by the Moderators. I think that says a lot about them.

If they have something to add to the conversation, by all means. If not, no. Unfortunately, the latter situation is quite common compared to the former.

NSGers made up a decent proportion of temporary UDL troops back in the day. Helped 'win' that first Balder update for the UDL.

NSG is not the topic of this thread, nor is Unibot’s shambolic management of Balder.

I’d appreciate if y’all could talk about how good TGW is instead ;)

I do appreciate you guys thwarting a quorum raid that was attempted on my region. If it wasn't for you guys it would have been another annoying 12 hours with an improper delegate.

They hold multiple fascist embassies. Seems like someone may have dropped the ball on this one.

It seems I need to get into a habit of consistently dunking on you, and your once again flawed perspective - based on an unclear perception of the situation. From a glance, we were chasing LILY in that defense. LILY jumps like 5 times a minute. If you’re taking time to look where they’re jumping, or analyze the region afterwards, you’re doing a shitty job at chasing. Sometimes this results in less than savory regions defended when the trigger is too tight for us to u-turn. It’s really exhausting seeing players who lack experience and are unskilled with fast-paced updating attempt to hold these stances.

TGW is a pretty openly Leftist region. Rest assured we don’t intentionally defend fash.

Dunk away Tim, dunk away. I am like a pretzel, I absorb salt.

But thanks for the explanation any way. I am pretty aware of TGW's leanings. I was pretty sure you didn't defend a fascist region on purpose.

How? It's common knowledge. It's not like the TGW just all of a sudden came out as anti-fascist, leftists. They were a pretty big wheel in CAIN.
