View from Below: TP's Invasion of Underwater Rifts

Underwater Rifts

A little over a week ago The Pacific Army invaded the sparsely populated region of Underwater Rifts. Since then the countryside has been ravaged by war. Every village has been torched. The houses have been raped and the women have been pillaged. It's truly horrifying in a Jack Nicholson sort of way.

Many villagers have refused to leave the ash-covered grounds that were once their homes. Since their crops have been torched, they have only tins of spam to eat. Most, however, packed what they had left and moved to several refugee camps situated along the border.

I ran into one aid worker. The chaos and war didn't seem to affect his happy and tropical disposition. His name tag read Kool Aid Man. He was quenching the thirsts of the refugees with his fruity insides, but I managed to ask him a few questions.

"Mr. Kool Aid Man, have many people perished?"

He looked at me with his deep, dark eyes before he said,"OH YEAH!"

"Do you expect things to get worse before they get better?"

"OH YEAH!"

"Do you have anything you'd like to say about the invasion or calls for peace?"

He struggled to answer this question, but after a long pause he replied, "....OH YEAH!"

The invasion hasn't been easy on the people, especially since the defender forces have been bombing themselves. No place has been hit harder than the town of Mi Tai. Earlier this week it was a battlefield between the Pacific Army and the Natives. The town changed hands many times and was passed around like a $10.00 hooker. The only difference is that in war there are no condoms and death is the only STD.

Will the madness ever end?

Oh dear me....seems there is a small bit of backlash against The Pacific.

Oh the Horror ! The Humanity ! It's a BOYCOTT !!!

FlagThe Feat'd Region Spell-Horthyst of Szegedorszag

Esteemed Nations,

I am here to lodge an unusual request, which I implore you grant us.

As you know, the Pacific is one of the main places where we run our ads for nations come join our regions. However, sometimes justly due to abhorrently lengthy ads, but sometimes very arbitrarily, the Pacific has assumed a very arrogant-militaristic attitude in the space of Nation States. I hold true the fact that without the rest of us, the Pacific is no more what it thinks it is, and wish us to give it a taste of this medicine.

Thus, I suggest that for a period of one week (or more), we all boycott the Pacific: no ads in their region. We of course could continue attracting nations from Rejected Realms, Lazarus or other Pacific Region, or invite nations personally. Yet The Pacific should see no trace of this, and if possibly no postings on their RMB.

I suggest the week of June 16 through June 22. It would be in fact even more beneficial if you could start this boycott now.

Thank you for your attention. Together we can do it!

Szeged, Central European delegate

Imagine there's no AdSpam
It's easy if you try
No cluttered RMB's
Around us only friends
Imagine all the feeders
Living active today

Imagine there's no spammers
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to fight or ban for
And no ASCII too
Imagine all the feeders
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be Spam Free

Imagine no more AdSpam
I wonder if you can
No need for Line Limits
A final end to spam
Imagine all the nations
Sharing all the feeders

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be Spam Free

I propose that Equilism show our support of this boycott in the next FA update... and could we forward the song to TP, Eldest? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
