:HOT: Welcome to the home of Special Forces. :HOT:

We are an elite fighting unit committed to each other and ridding the Metaverse of alien fiends. Oh, and having a good time, drinking fine beverages and writing hopefully witty stuff. Our leader is whoever bought the last round of drinks, or whoever shot the last alien. We are...Very Special.

I'm sorry if I hurt anybody's feelings.

Not mine. I hope yours are not hurting either. Just to let you know, I am not a Europe basher at all. I have lived in Europe before, 4 years each time (twice total) and travelled a lot. I enjoyed my years there a great deal...

As soon as the Spec Ops leaves for 2 sec's their thread is hijacked, by FotR and Euro, could this be a secret alliance LOL

If so the cover is really good (and of course nobody informed me, why don't they ever tell me anything :sniff!: )

I would add that evenement in Egypt in 1956 where England and France were involved was a military victory that went into a diplomatic failure

I'm not Europe-bashing, just correcting some history. It wasn't an unassisted victory: England and France were allies of Israel.

It was a particularly ill-timed venture, as Soviet troops were enforcing a brutal crackdown in Chechoslovakia at the time, and the English/French/Israeli excursion meant that the world's attention was diverted from the Soviets.

Attention Special Forces!

The Galactic Interstellar Metrological Monitoring Endeavor (GIMME) have observed freak snow downfall in the northwestern hemisphere of Earth. To combat frigid temperatures and declining morale, emergency shipments of booze have been requested. Please take a brief moment from your special activities to assemble all of your spare booze. Illegal alien pornography and delicacies would also be greatly appreciated. Freighters will be arriving shortly to convey your generous donations to G.R... Earth! Thank you! :)

The Special Forces Wants You:
Are you sick of your family and friends thinking you’re a perv because of all those awful wookie porn Holovids that Netromancer insists you take are filling your DVD drawers? Can’t park in your garage because of all those bouncy red balls the Torians gave you? Ticked off that the Drendins took your pet hamster and goldfish to power their death furnaces?

Then maybe, just maybe, the Special Forces are for you. We’ll help you become an army of one. (If you’re like Ginata/Tibet or Jaws – an army, marines, navy, and air force of one.)

If you enjoy gaming, fiction, and playing Galactic Civilizations until your paws, fins, wings, or hands fall off… then we can channel you gaming powers and introduce you a number of wines you might not otherwise have considered. Of course, constructive participation in our thread is always welcome regardless of your level of interest in joining.

The pay might not be great, but the benefits are worth it – particularly if you’re interested in remaining a part of a vibrant, informal network of International gamers and sci-fiction fans. If you think you have what it takes to join the Special Forces, then visit our empire page… Link Click the button and email the Iron Paw.

If you’re a newbie, we’d like you post on our thread and introduce yourself first. If you’ve been around, participate in the forums, and haven’t actively worked at insulting members of our empire or other empires… then you too can immediately be inducted into the closest knit, most elite fighting force in the Metaverse.

Just to be clear, this was not meant as a political statement or an enticement for any specific individual to join our empire. It is a general recruitment issue for those who (1) read our thread and (2) have an interest in joining.

I apologize for any mayhem I may have caused...

Cypher Pax,

I didn't want to start a flame war here
End of quote


Then why this: "There's something like PRIDE HONOUR and BROTHERHOOD.
But of course you wouldn't understand that"?

Sounds like a flame to me?

My retort about unassisted was meant to show that you had not a monopoly on those two items nothing more. Hence the use of the word unassisted to indicate that in this century, others have demonstrated such.

Is that a valid reason to go Euro-bashing?
End of quote


Again, Terl got the gist of my post. No Eurobashing involved. Yet you couldn't. Your pattern indicates arrogance on your part. Forgive me if I don't acknowledge Europe has a monopoly on everything right and good.

Honour, Pride and Brotherhood, means I won't leave my empire because another Empire has more chances of getting to the top. It means loyalty and sticking with friends...
End of quote


Ok yet another flame. As I am the emporer of the empire they left to form their own, I can tell you they left with my blessing and with my knowledge. I don't consider it dishonorable at all. As you can see from both empire's threads, we're still very fine friends. More power to them. The small group of active players still left in G.R.O.S.S. wanted to go on or I might be over here too. Now we've all had quite enough of that flaming junk out of you.

I'm more mature than that.
End of quote


Then demonstrate it.

Um...why did that get out of hand? I enjoyed the initial joke about the screenshot with Muadman...

Cypher: Pontius is right - go ahead and post recruitment notices; if we can't do it in out own thread, where can we do it? No apology needed.

It looks as if the LOYALTY and HONOUR etc. thing went off the rails, and just in case you weren't joking, I would like to point out that we have 17 able warriors joined over the last three months. Departures: zero. Special Forces knows plenty about loyalty and honour - we never leave a man behind. Or a woman. Or a shark. Or a penguin...oh, wait...we might smack them around a bit...but we still pick up the pieces and take them with us.

And if anyone is going Euro-bashing, that'll be us. We'll be going for them right where it hurts: in the paperwork. We intend to submit a deployment order so fiendish, they will never recover. It will be...on less than half an A4 sheet of paper. It will require...only one signature. They will never know what hit them. ;)

If you REALLY want to screw things up, send it to 'em on a standard U.S. 3-hole punched letter sheet. It'll take them months to find a binder that can hold it.

HI Ben, You get another chance this succession round cause i cant fetch or send my mail and submit games till 1. Feb. so you may play your turn this round
Reply #1720 from Stardock Forums Top
It was indeed a joke, Wild Wombat. Thanks.
And my refusal to join another Empire, well that's indeed loyalty. If Pontiusbruinpilot doesn't like me and thinks I'm arrogant,I can't really help that. I'm sorry that person finds me all the things I'm not, I still don't have any hard feelings.

Let's get this back on the front page. No time to chat today -- I gotta a fun job today - doing cluster node config for a new 24 server farm... we're in sandbox mode so I get to try some really cool things out over the next few weeks.
