FAN and GOONS are only perma-ZI as long as they stay in FAN or GOONS, really, or have done something really bad - Diskord fought in the first FAN War for FAN and he's safely with us today, while we have quite a few ex-GOONS among us, including a couple who didn't come to us 'til fucking DECEMBER, after 3 months of fighting. Outside of them, few alliances outside of LUE had many of their players driven out by perma-ZI to my knowledge, and even LUE didn't have a blanket perma-ZI (though I've heard quite a few stories of people being perma-ZIed for totally BS reasons there).

yeah i mean it's not like stupid people have any other ways of expressing themselves and their stupidity in ways that'll inevitably get in your way

tl;dr quit bitching and get worked up over something worthwhile

this is retarded ur all retarded i h8 u all

Admin runs the deletion script randomly doesn't he?

EDIT: Randomly during the day, I mean.

Wait...your parents are fine with you beating the shit out of him, but will be pissed if you give him porn? God damn, some times I hate this country.

Except for the last sentence I was thinking that too

Anyway, just act like reasonable human beings, make a compromise. You're stuck with your family for life, so try and get along with them - you'd probably regret it later in life if you were estranged from them anyway.

I used to have similar scuffles with my sister over computer use and they didn't get solved until she got a computer of her own, but I really wish I'd have been more mature about it. Just get the parents when he doesn't let you take your turn, especially if he agreed to a deal with you. Chances are your parents are more persuasive with him than you, and maybe more persuasive than your fists too.

I don't really consider anything from the new millenium particularly old yet.

Because IRON is incr4edibly inactive. I used to be our ambasador there, and they were very inactive on their social forums

If they're like us, it's probably because they're all on IRC instead.  

I know IRON is probably well organized, and they have an in-game flag, but RIA certainly does have a unique and quirky community the likes of which that you probably would be hard pressed to find anywhere else except perhaps GameFAQs RI. And, in the end, that's really what alliances boil down to - communities. You don't like your community, you jump ship and take a gamble on another one, you like the one you're in, you stay, and, this is something a lot of people don't always get, work to make it better and preserve it.

Happy birthday, dude. I'm turning 19 in like five days myself.

           

I was paying attention to the last sentence.

Sugar is still alright, but now that Furs doesn't suck that much Lead is the worst by far, unless maybe if you have nukes (and plenty of them). You can't have that many planes, so the lower upkeep is barely noticiable and most people don't have tanks and missiles laying around during peace time, so their lowered upkeep is useless too. But what I found to be the worst was the fact that it is supposed to lower your soldier upkeep by $0.50 per soldier. But Pigs does the same thing and if you have both (like I do) you only get that discount once. So if it wasn't for Scholars and the lowered aircraft upkeep, I might as well just not have a second resource.

I hate to break it to you, but the lowered plane upkeep is worthless too. I have 60 level 9 planes and pay $12,000 upkeep on them daily. Lead would save me a whole $4,000, which is actually less than the soldier upkeep savings I'd get (approx $6,000). Unless your nation is tiny, that's peanuts.
