Edited by: other mickey on 05/07/2007 19:13:36 All I see in this topic are a few Iron and a few FLA smacking each other, yet I fail to see any real official stance. Perhaps leaders of the two alliances would like to make one because right now, your pilots are making things a lot worse for both of you.
I have respect for IRON and even more for FLA. We were set back hugely when we lost some major corps, a lot of PVP'ers and when Demarcus decided to run off with our Dreads and all the alliances ISK.
I personally lost a lot attacking Fountain, attacking and then defending Cloud Ring and the defending Deklein. TBH, I don't really recall all that much ISK making.
Why the north fell? Because when we were defending Deklein, 90% of our allies were resident corps and alliances (and what a fantastic job they did!!). What was missing was the infrastructure that should have been there by the Sovereignty Holders! I suspect after we left, nothing changed. D2 had their own problems it seems and once they were sorted they returned to the battle field, however they were weakened and couldn't stand out against MC.
I have a lot of respect for MC. You single-handedly defeated the North. All the other reds up there were just sight-seeing from what we could tell.
Anyway, it's sad to see FLA and IRON no longer blue to one another. Hope it can all be sorted out!

Iron had some really great FCs. I really can't say that I've been on any other TS, where the FC is shouting "Guys, these guys outnumber us 2 to 1. We are so gonna smash 'em to bits!" and actually pulling it off... Those were the days... ___ P.S. Post with your main. Mind control and tin hats |

Having had friends in both IRON and FLA, I will only say this about them both, they both have great players and they both have backstabbers....just like almost any other alliance out there. I know OXIDE has had a few problem children of it's own. We take care of the problem and move on.
It saddens me to see that the north STILL has not learned the lesson of banding together, instead of taking pot shots at each other. It's easy to shoot at each other, easy to blame the others when in fact it's your own fault for not putting aside petty differences and focusing on the real enemy, the invading force. RULE #1 Protect your own people RULE #2 Protect your home Turf RULE #3 Protect your allies
Miss a single rule and you will be divided and conquered. this is how those who invaded the north were able to do so easily. The MAD Pact alliances may gripe and moan at each other internally, but when invaded, all that goes out the door and we rally around each other. That is our strength. To any ally out there, Make the call and we'll be there. To our enemies, Time for fun :), thats what the game is all about right ? YARRRRRR

So first the north gets flamed for being a NAPfest and then it gets flamed for not banding together and shooting eachother?
Make up your minds.

Greetings all, To those who are reading this, we thank you for your interest in FLA and what happens next in our story. To those all those who have posted, we thank you for your time, especially the many who had kind words for us . As is always possible with any forum thread the topic sometimes wandered a bit - so thanks to the guys with the scissors too .
I think most would agree that this thread has run it's course, but some of you may yet have topics you would like to discuss, there are some things none would expect discussed in public (we're shy), to those people I would suggest you grab one of our diplomatic team IG. Our Diplomatic team includes: Slinktress, Quninella, Kayron Brennan, Professerjoe - we welcome your convos.
Now lets all get back to the cold harsh realities of space where our friends are.

Back to what this thread was initially intended to be for, we would like to thank FLA for a great op and CPU and FLA have been good friends for quite some time and we have a deep respect for FLA and will come to aid FLA any time they need it. As for the ignorant forum bickering which has infested this thread to turn it into a schoolhouse playground brawl, let it go guys...the past is the past and the biggest issue is FLA didnt sell out, and they didnt sell out any of their friends. They were outgunned as we all know and had to rebuild. Good luck in future endeavors from all members of CPU and we look forward to flying with you in future operations. In our hearts and minds FLA is a true class act and we are proud to have them as friends. Congratulations on your latest achievements and on a successful operation which we are proud to have been a part of. |

One thing about living in the new north, it's rarely dull :)
Respect to the original poster for acknowledging others, a rare feat on a board full of angsty e-peen cranking.

The purpose of this post is as follows:
o/ Slinky, you fox. o/ BGG, LOQ, DI-TRON, KVEC, Galaxy Punks, you guys were great to fly with.
Thanks to cold, and Stitcher for great FC-ing. Thanks to Patch for being a crazy mofo with his carrier.
FLA was a good home and good group. TRI was a good adversary, and IRON was a good ally. MC should get hired by the IRS, and all the new FLA members deserve a home.
Fly safe. __________________________________________________

I do love how friendly MC is to FLA now. I really don't know how FLA could have held out for so long all by themselves.

Quote: What Does Friendship Mean to FLA?
From my personal experience it seems to mean turning on you the second things don't go your way. When I met you guys you were an empire carebear alliance. Gave you your own chunk of 0.0 space to live in. Then when it looked like things werent going your way for 2 days you set us -10 and attacked us with your only explanation being "sorry. we think long term your enemies are more(likely to win) stable."
But good like with your righteous crusade against bob.

Originally by: fire 59 You are always true to your word and that is proceless imo
Empty words from someone in an alliance of backstabbers.
Wtb, 1500 units of 'troll begone'
Edit - @ pugwash below me. Your entitled to your opinion dude, i have nver cheated, i don't know of any bobs that have cheated so seeing as your replying to me and i have done neither, your trolling is misplaced. Jus tbecause you think you know everything about all bobs doesnt make it fact, your opinion and nothing else, as i have my opinion and what i see and know, seeing as im actually there.
Please leave the derailing trolling stuff for another thread, this isn't about bob so leave it that way
Edit ( again ) - @ pugwash. You can do your e martyr thing and puff your chest out, preaching to the masses that you are correct and that im wrong, your cleever and im stupid yada yada yawn. Doesn't change the fact that you are a troll and are derailing this thread. Be a man and walk away dude, save your trolling for a bob thread
Sorry about that slinktress <3
The Troll King accusing other people of trolling. Stay away from the trollBgone 1000 buddy... trust me. Anyways bob betraying its word isn't even something to debate. Publicly flaunted standings resets, even betraying the conditions of exiting the alliance, all made publicly. So, what are you attempting to deny again? If you were attempting to paint an honorable picture of bob, uhh.. you can't.. sorry. _______________ Rokh vs. Hyperion

Edited by: Hesprax on 10/07/2007 11:46:05 From what I have heard lately it sounds like FLA have stood strong and proud in the face of incredible adversity, loyal to their friends, honourable in battle and unrelenting in their will to hold onto what is theirs and survive.Although I have not followed the events of the last 10 months or so in Deklein partciularly closely, so I only really know what I have been told by old friends and allies and read here.
I left the FLA about a year ago now, but I am pleased to hear that you have upheld most of the values that we set the FLA up with originally. I must confess that I do not recognise any of the faces or corporations now posting as FLA, but things change. We left after the war against NFC at the end of summer 2006, passing the executorship of the alliance into the hands of Kinetic Vector, we thought the FLA was falling apart then and had all gotten a bit sick of the politics and general alliance bureaucracy, it had all turned out rather differently to what we had envisioned originally.
But look at you now, you held that space we first took in Deklein for a year after we left, I am genuinely impressed, because actual capability on a large scale was something FLA lacked when I was there, spirit, tenacity and honour though have always been their by the bucket load.
Stay strong guys, may you rise again someday.

I actually think KVEC are the only original corp left in the alliance at this moment in time, correct me if I'm wrong though.
I had a lot of fun and good times in the FLA before too much worrying of "omfg spies are everywhere!!1! we must withhold information from everyone!!111!" and the general incompetence of most of the recent leaders of the alliance forced us to leave.
Still, 1,100 members less, the FLA still exists in some form.

Well, judging from your track history, it looks like they were right

Bah, who revived this thread....it was almost as dead as our friendship with FLA....
No hard feelings guys, we actually like you a lot more now that you're not living next door to us. We're also getting a lot of fun out the fights we've been having up north. I may not respect you as allies, but certainly have plenty for you as opponents.
