Equilism closed their embassy over that (Naivetry could tell you more), as did the Pacific and Gatesville. Indeed, of all the people I knew who weren't actual Raiders, the only figure *not* upset that I can recall was Kandarin himself. I applaud his cool.
Yep. That was the first Foreign Affairs statement I ever had to write. The closure of relations was only posted on Taijitu's forums, I think, where it has since disappeared into deep archives; I've got a copy, but it's tucked away in our FA drafting area.
That whole saga is one of many possible examples for why Kandarin got his Commendation.
