We can laugh all we want at their shortcomings, but the state of reality is the UDL is bigger and better than us. This should have never happened - we are the longest-running interregional defender organization in NationStates history and goddammit we should also be the best.
Our first action under my leadership is the founding of a new region, In Defence of NationStates. This region will follow the same line of thinking as NATO; a body of nations signed on as signatories. I will be putting my blood and real-life money to make this region grow quickly. One of the FRA's faults is it has relied on its member regions to bring in new blood, and if "outsiders" sign up to join the FRA, we discourage them by sending them back to member regions before they can get involved at the organizational level. There's too much elitism and red-tape in this process, and it is hereby eliminated. With the creation of IDNS, we will be recruiting new people directly into the defending world. Liberations and high-security operations will still be done from the FRA sphere however; we need to retain control over our internal security in order to plan liberations and expect them to be successful.
I am also pleased to announce a summit, creatively titled the FRA-UIAF Summit, to begin September 14th and last indefinitely. The FRA will be represented by myself, Karputsk and Frattastan; and the UIAF represented by North East Somerset, Christopher Bishop, and Charles Cerebella. North East Somerset and myself expect that by the end of this summit, the war on the FRA will end and the FRA-UIAF will agree on rules of engagement to improve raider-defender quality of gameplay. Not only this, but the FRA and UIAF do share a common goal: defence of game-created regions and the upholding of legitimately selected delegates in these regions. With an agreement in place between our two organizations, coups and griefing of game-created regions will effectively become a thing of the past. Should our two parties agree on a treaty and the FRA and UIAF's respective memberships sign off, we will be approaching game-created regions to notify them of our commitment to upholding their freedoms without sticking our nose in their affairs.

Sort of in agreement with you, but the FRA doesn't formally recognize the declaration of war on us. The positive benefit for the FRA to see this war end however, is for UIAF to no longer consider The Rejected Realms an enemy region; instead, the UIAF would defend it. Thus, the security of our largest founderless region is ensured.Karpathos wrote:One comment though: An end to the "war" with the imperialists will only benefit them. The FRA shouldn't put much credence to the PR smearing tactics it has endured. Thread piling by imperialists does not constitute the general attitude of NS. Be mindful that while you're suing for peace, they aren't running around behind your back continuing their insidious (if not transparent) plots. Other than that, I look forward to the dynamic leadership of Falconias.

I would've been baited into this obvious flamebait a couple years ago, Unibot, and kicked and screamed, but I'm not interested in your rhetoric or politics, it bores me. It does amuse me, though, that you can tell us we have our heads up our own asses, after you have the gall to record a 40-minute interview about your life in retirement, and then come back from your "retirement" barely a month later with your own special topic and feel you need to re-assure the UDL that you will in fact not sieze the reins from Mahaj (thus subtly reminding people that you consider yourself to have cult leader-like power over the UDL). You're shooting yourself in the foot and losing your credibility. Like your story the other day about the university professor asking you if you were Unibot and telling you he was a fan. Too bad it was a complete and utter lie. So before you walk around flamebaiting your "competitor" perhaps you should rebuild your credibility first. I see right through you, Unibot, and I don't need to please you to work with the UDL or further the well-being of the FRA and its members. You might earn my respect one day through dedication by hard work and virtue, not painting yourself as a cult hero.Unibot wrote:Well, this looks like an interesting set of objectives. It's too bad FRA couldn't get their head out of their arses and focus on defending instead of trying to reclaim past glories. But I always knew this kind of push for supremacy would occur from FRA and the rest of defenderdom should be on guard.

Tim. You're too much (BS) bro! Is your answer to anyone you don't like to use ad hominem attacks? Give it up!

The one with him angrilly screaming about the FRA flying an FRA flag, because UDL's people don't fly a UDL flag, is especially nice. He even tried to ban UDL from working with the FRA because of that. Alas, leaking logs = bans, and Karputsk isn't awake to trigger every Major.

The UIAF is not a raider organization. TNI and LKE are imperialist in nature, unless someone pulled a fast one on me when I wasn't looking. As such your talks will have no impact upon raider/fenda warfare. Furthermore while I have nothing but respect for the UIAF, for you Falc to claim that coups and GCR griefings will be eliminated through your joint effort is either incredibly naive or empty boasting on the part of the FRA.
