Patchy Leadership

This move only further reinforces the status of the Pistoleers as a puppet group of the JRG. This control of our area by external groups with unknown agendas is unacceptable, and the Durham Nationalists call upon all right-thinking citizens of Durham to rise up against the tyranny of our self-appointed leaders. --Nathan Hale 18:37, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Take the stick out of your ass, Hale. My old boys are just rollin' into town to give you a hand, we love Durham, we dont want to make it a puppet state. Rozen 18:38, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Durham has been a vassal state to the shipwreck for a long time. Nathan, your group seem to have your heads screwed on the right way. Would you be interested in an alliance? -- The Order Of Patriots 20:51, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, we have no interest in becoming an OOP front group. --Nathan Hale 21:25, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Thatta boy, Nathan! RobZombie

Fight Degenerates Into Brawl

Arrr, it were a shame that such a fight be unfinished...well, I be a trader at heart, and I be supplyin' booty to me feller Jolly Rogers again. - Zom-VLD

It were good to see all those people in one place, NOT KILLING EACHOTHER..for a short time at least. Another good paper as usual, but does anyone think its shorter than the other issues? Rozen

Peace in Our Lifetimes?

May I quote? 'An Order spokesman said that attacks on their agents would be "repaid tenfold"' - I'm not some green trooper fresh of the boat, i've got years of experience under by belt, and anyone who touches my noobie brothers or Guildmaster will get thier own. Because I'll tell everyone they're OoP members, and i know a few clans who'd like a piece of an OoPer. :P RobZombie

Well, since you've agreed not to attack any Yorkers who haven't openly declared themselves members of the Order, that limits you to Mr Bungle and W B Hazen, so you'd hardly be telling anyone anything new. And if you should attack one of them, all the threats in the world won't save you and yours. --The Order Of Patriots 20:49, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Tough talk, but word-twistingly agonising. you see, what you've done here ('who haven't openly declared themselves') is say that I'll only attack profile members, but that's not ture. I'll attack anyone that can be proven beyond resonable doubt to be an OoPer trooper. For all your tough talk and strong words, you hide behind blank profiles and cower in the shadows. I have respect for only Bungle and Hazen, because they're honorable enough not to hide. and I know Bungle from the CP forums, so i wont attack him anyway. RobZombie

Right. And you're going to unmask our agents how, exactly? And I can assure you the council will not tolerate a Guild-style witchunt in York, and I doubt the ColPol will either. --The Order Of Patriots 12:35, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I never said the Priavteers would hunt you down, I'll just tell everyone who assassinated me or my guys, if they look OoPish in some way or I have other reason to believe that you're behind the attack, I'll tell people. Pirates will be especialy interested, as will a handful of other factions and outsiders and Mercs. Its childish, but it'll work in revealing more of your men. Why do you hide anyway? Are you afraid that the big-bad Jolly Roger PDF will kick your ass into oblivion? RobZombie

Fair enough. The PDF are a defensive group based in the North, so we hardly have anything to fear from them. As for the JRG... they can come and have a go if they think they can find the way... our discretion is a tactical choice to allow conscientious folk to support our cause without fear of diplomatic and military reprisals from those who would plunge Shartak into the dark night of pirate rule. --The Order Of Patriots 19:31, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Dont you mean without fear of reprisals from honorable people? Are you an honest to Gods secret police or are you the Shartak Gestapo? Replacing Jews with Pirates? And who says Pirates would be a bad set of rulers? Nobody's ever ran into the jungle from leaving the Hell Born Strumpet and the PDF have been the most effective police force in Shartak history...so i ask you this...would they not use torches and lanterns?
