How to Win Friends and Nerve Staple People
Unnecessary insults in the Main Forum don't seem to be going over very well, especially with the CyCon players. I think we need to tone it down out there.

No more threads like "Why is the Looniveristy such a group of lazy capitalist pig dogs?", at least until open hostilities are underway.

We seem to be gaining ground with our Pravda propoganda, as the other factions see what fun we're having here in the Hive*, and are sympathetic to us for that reason.

We need to keep that tone and making alliances should be easier, especially with the CyCon



* Minus the nerve stapling, of course

I agree. Those of us who talked in defense of other factions are really making us gaining ground in our diplomatic efforts. If I see somebody who is always considerable and tolerent, always think in others shoes, I would consider him/her to be a trusty friend.

It will be nice to stop posting hostile threads. I find it a turnoff and maybe other people too.

Of course everyone here gets along, right?

Right. I agree that our Hive comrades should cease with their propaganda against other factions UNTIL we are Vendetta-ed with them. PRAVDA is actually doing a good job of easing tension with the other faction members....they see that we can take a joke.

Congratulations, Prince Vev! But from when are you into the xenodoughnut business, Comrade? Have you made sure the nerve staplers are in good hands?

No I just swapped a truckload of xenodoughnuts from Octavian X for a truckload of nerve staplers.

No wonder why Comrade Octavian X has been sighted frequently with big smiles lately.

Praize your enemies! Praize the drones! Praize the capitalistic pig dogs! Shamlessly praize them until they feel ashamed to say one bad word toward the Hive.

This tactic needs to be used carefully though. It should be used so that they feel you are smart, not stupid.
