If I had known I'd have reported it myself. If I suspected that the current leaders were involved I'd likely leave and join PDM or somesuch. This was Hanlong and TC. This was not Laf. They represented Laf but they no longer do and we are better for it.

If others had a clue theyd realize that a family doesnt disband over 1 or 2 mistakes.

Will be a interesting Final. Let's see if Munich buckle under the pressure of playing at home.

Buddy. The occupiers themselves are ignorant about what the entire OWS movement is about. I've spoken to dozens of people who identify themselves as part of the OWS movement in Toronto and asked them questions about what it stands for, what their goals are, what system they'd like to see in place etc. and you get dozens of different answers. The only consistency is that what we have no isn't working. There's nothing close to a consensus about why it's not working or how to fix it. My problem with OWS is that it has no goal. You're complaining about our system. Fine. It's not perfect. There are classes. The upper class gets breaks that they don't need while the "middle" and lower classes pay taxes they can't afford. Fine. I'll grant you that. But pissing everyone off just to raise awareness about a problem isn't doing a god damn thing to fix the problem. All you're doing is alienating reasonable "middle" class people like me (a teacher) from supporting your cause. I agree with many of the arguments about our current economic system. What I disagree with is that we can fix the system by taking over public spaces and inconveniencing the very 99% that you claim to represent. You've identified a problem. Great. Now what's the solution? Ask 100 random occupiers that question and you'll get 100 different answers. Your "group" has no direction and no goal and I find it very hard to support something like that.

I also find it very hard to support people who are chanting about not having a job or paying too many taxes while they hold a $700 iPhone in one hand and drink their $6 Starbucks latte in the other. Many of them come off as hipsters who are only protesting because there's something to protest.

thought we shot all the bloody dead beats... oh well, maybe if we can get them all to wear a hoodie...

get off your bums, earn some money and pay some bloody taxes.

and just in case you didn't notice, 2/3rds of the nation doesn't have to pay any income tax. so i have no dang clue what the heck you are complaining about. oh, the poor impoverished masses that don't contribute one thin dime to provide for the peace and security that is provided to them by the 1/3rd that is actually paying for it. barely.

i'm happy we are all airing dirty laundry on AT now

i like it open.

because you can dig all the posts and it comes down to LaF/SoF and all our allies trying to defend themselves because makinso/arsenal/kj thought it was cute to fluff up peace deals between the LaF/SOL and SoF/Evo two resets ago :P

and everyone knows it. should have just signed peace treaties without trying to "shove" random pact terms down "our throats".

as well as our promised obligations to our loyal allies :P

DC is bad enough with traffic, motorcade shutdowns, inept Metro, humid summers, and tourists that we don't need a bunch of whiny brats to compile our regional problems. So this May Day, march right out and take your story across America to every little town--please!

Send em here to Appalachia, they wouldn't last too long. And they'd know what real poverty looks like; its nothing like their privileged, entitled selves.

Because he implied he doesn't work. You are part of a mob while I'm out trying to make a living for myself as an individual - who is the one that isn't thinking for himself? I would truly love to know what the OWS theory of economics is because nothing I've ever heard from them would work.

Yes, you OWS protesters can just keep telling the 1% that you hold all the power. In the meantime, the 1% will be living comfortably in their multimillion dollar yachts, mansions, and vehicles, (while having the full protection of their friends in Congress) while stuffing them all through tax loopholes designed specifically to keep the working class...in the working class.

Because really...if a person doesn't have a job, because he or she is too busy "occupying X", where else is that person's income coming from?

Good drone? If he and I weren't doing so, where would the government money you live off of come from? Where would the goods and services you enjoy come from?

Besides, the government knew about this upcoming protest even before it was planned by the protesters. Only a few hundred people will show up, and some of them be rounded up and arrested for...protesting, thus sending a message to any other would-be protesters.

What is competative about people putting a hit me sign on their head and then hitting back, both countries with low defence.

What is competative about people putting a hit me sign on their head and then hitting back, both countries with low defence. And when did being landgrabbed become a form of harrassment on this game?

I'm against this sandbox, simycity3000 style, but again this war is not about the 'open grab list'...

As a new years present to our members, we are enacting a new policy.

If MD finds a country has been FA'd in to the top 10 and displaces an MD country, we will kill the offending country.

Get there yourself or don't get there at all.

Expanding would blow. The level of play just goes down for every team overall which to me is just lame.

That is dumb and i hope not true. Mormons are still Christians first of all. Furthermore, how could ANYONE (even a rubber chicken) not be better than Obumer? I am not Mormon and i am not Pro Romney, but if he gets the nomination i will vote for him. Hell, I would take ANYONE over Obumer.

They clam they will hack and permit stocks from showing on the web. In some respects, I hope it is a scare tactic but another part wants them to do something to help America wake up and fight these corporations that control our lives. I give everyone who is protesting now, whether its in NY, Chicago, LA props for doing something. Sure home more of us join in. I think enough of us are getting tired of it.

An old saying quite popular on the gun nut / survivalist forums I troll:

"If you find yourself in a fair fight then you need a lesson in better tactics."

Oh, AT drama... how I've missed you!!!

*breaks out the popcorn* :p
