I think you miss the point entirely. Just a few months ago, people in Magnagora and Glomdoring were all over Celest and Serenwilde for working together. They constantly questioned why couldn’t Celest grow a pair and stand on its own. Now Celest has done that, but yet the same main group of complainers (Magnagora) has aligned themselves with Serenwilde. They have done the very thing that they taunted and called Celest names for doing. That right there is hypocrisy.
Oh, and the argument that Celest brings it all on itself is as false as a 3 dollar bill. Magnagora has always raided and attacked Celest citizens whenever it was their want. When called on it by Celest, Magnagora would then constantly reply with fight back or harden up. So essentially attacking Celest over and over again puts the city in a no-win situation. Sit back and do nothing, and your people and areas get attacked and called cowards. Do something in response and your people get attacked and told you bring it on yourselves.
I've never heard that expression before (well, not that I remember) but I've heard it twice today. Strange.

Post is true though. Thats what annoys the hell out of me, even more then the actually getting beaten by the two orgs combined.

I guess thats because Celest would always whine about it, whatever the outcome will be

I'm not sure as to how that has anything to do with what was quoted.
Maybe I'm just tired, and when I'm tired, stupid statements confuse me.

Judging by the number of people who have patented "Wacko Jacko" quotes in their signatures, yes, I'd have to concur.

Yeah we're alligned with Serenwilde alright. Which is why the same day as one of the joint raids on the Supernals, Telrath and I find Nejii and Rinaari on Earth killing the Earth Lords. With friends like that, who needs enemies. The only thing there's been co-operation with is the attacks on Celestia, because both parties have an interest in seeing it go down. That's a far cry from the ESA clan and having rifts from above the Pool of Stars to the EtherWilde. Closest Magnagora's ever had to that kind of situation was with Glomdoring way back when.

As for this, I've always been unimpressed by people from either side who go about attacking citizens whenever for no reason. The ones in Mag I catch doing it I get on their cases to. Don't need loose cannons going off all over the place, and some of the newer players just need their enthusiasm directed a little better. It's the ones like this where it's people who're not really involved in the conflict outside of maybe defending themseleves when they're attacked that gets me the most frustrated. It'd be like attacking Ialie for stepping into Acknor. She's lucky in that she's well known, so people are aware she doesn't get involved with combat much if at all. I imagine there'd be quite the uproar if it happened to her.

You seem to be incapable of remembering your own post. Go back and look at the edit you put on your post. It is easy to see, since the word EDIT is as big as day. That edited part is what I was responding to, not your juvenile analogy.

You are correct, your alliance with them is not as deeply entrenched as Celest was with them, though Serenwilde still had members like Sylphas and Kalodan who conducted small raids on Celest territories too. Still, the IC working together of the two organizations is not a problem for me. I said back when Celest and Serenwilde was doing it that people should be able to role-play the way they desire. My point of making that part of the post was to point out how all of the complaining about Celest and Serenwilde working together was hypocritical when the complainers seem to be just as willing to do the same thing when it suits them.

Just as a note- I complained about Celenwilde, too.
I'm not really willing to do the same thing myself, though.
