The Trade Federation

The Trade Federation is interested in sharing west boundwood with you.

We offer several services.

. Trade Federation safe houses, where healing and shelter are provided to all survivors.

. Trade Federation revive points, where people will be promptly revived. Eventually we will try for some rotter revive points.

. Trade Federation mercenaries, to help give smaller factions an edge when defending themselves.

The price of these services would be conscription. Conscription is a temporary service in our army, based on services rendered. Providing short term shelter would require perhaps a week or two, while renting our army would have a higher cost. We will work with individuals and with factions. Factions who choose to ally with us will receive services at a free or reduced cost. We will avoid entering conflicts of our own unless threatened or cheated out of our fair price. Here is a base price list, subject to review and revision:

  • Shelter: 2 days per day
  • Healing: 1 day for every 2 FAK used. (Free if injured under our service.)
  • Revive: 9 days per revive (Free if you die under our service)
  • Army rental: 4 days per day, one player per merc rented.


The idea of this is based on Feudalism, a form of communism.--Thomas mill8 21:14, 20 August 2006 (BST)


Ummm, feudalism is not a form of communism at all. I know you've never read Marx, but... well, we can chat about it elsewhere. Join the M(A)F forum, that would be a good place to discuss it. --Luigi Galleani MAC | BB 20:46, 23 August 2006 (BST)
I'm not sure you understand what Feudalism is...... In Feudalism, poeple work for lords in exchange for protection. The people where treated slightly better than slaves. The lords also fed and clothed them, but offered them little rights. That my friend is communism.--Thomas mill8 22:29, 23 August 2006 (BST)
Well, that is a skewed version of feudalism (which itself existed from spain to japan with many variations), but that is not communism. Communism has no lords, no masters, and all are equal within it. Socialism does have government, but socialism has far more variations than feudalism did, and they are far from the same. --Luigi Galleani M(A)C | M(A)F 22:33, 23 August 2006 (BST)
Feudalism is no where near Communism or Socialism. Feudalism was based on the oppression of the people by the Lords. Communism isn't about oppression it's about equality. - HighlandZHunter
At any rate, The Trade Federation is similar to Socialism. You do your part by serving in our military, and you are taken care of, be it by healing, shelter, revives, or what have you. We certainly did not wish to offer any offense. All we ask is that you allow us to share this magnificent suburb with you, who have been blessed with abundance. Please consider the offer.

Sincerely,

Viceroy Chili Cheese Dog 21:35, 28 August 2006 (BST)

To be frank, although I do not represent the rest of the IUSS, we arn't exactly intrested in serving under your so called socialist union. Nor are we intrested in hiring mercenaries, maybe try moving to a suburb where there are more capitalists? HighlandZHunter - I.U.S.S
Then perhaps we could agree to disagree. We share the suburb with you, we both defend it, and we leave each other to our own devices. With your permission, I would like to propose a non-aggression pact, so that we don't fight, but we don't need to do anything for each other. Perhaps this idea will suit your needs more. Viceroy Chili Cheese Dog 13:41, 16 September 2006 (BST)


Alliance?

Hello all,

I represent the Freedom Fighters, a more or less average group with no real base of operations, and currently a small memberbase. I've been cleared by my leaders in the MLF to ask you to join us in the name of humantiy and the revolutionary cause (even though we arent truly Communists or Socialists). If you would be so kind as to email us back or post a reply on our wiki, it would be appreciated.


-The FF thanks you for your response, and looks forward to hearing from you in the future.

-The X would like to ally with you. we want you in a allied nation as you are also a strong government yourself. I hear that some think we declared war on you. this is a lie. please talk more on our forum in which you may find on the wiki.

PKing accusations

Jesus, I have to deal with the RRF and you dicks couldn't find someone else to PK?

-Desmond O'Fara

Why are you people from west boundwood attacking us from shuttlebank. We are not encroaching in your suburb. I noticed you havent replied to my leader either. At least groups like the GB have the decency to say why they are killing you.

-Emridhs

Hmm... would you mind providing a bit more details? Who killed you where and under what circumstances? I'm finding it a little difficult to believe that any of our genuine members partake in PKing. Unless your player is a zombie or something ;)

--Justas 09:47, 25 May 2006 (BST)

Well, Personally I was taken out about 2 days ago. I was in Dennett Walk school. I was PKed by MR2Di4 *http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=151538 They just killed me, left me in there, no explination. There have been other people of our group PKed by your group, While we are in our safe-houses, and Not as zombies. A lot of Shuttlebank Buildings have been tagged with your groups insignia, and also in buildings we have marked to be kept as VSB, which undermines our barricading policy, which at the moment is really shot to shit with the RRF attacking our suburb, but we still need some semblance of order.

-Emridhs

Hmm, there is no such member in our group. Though it puzzles me why anyone would falsely change the group in their profile just to frame us. Unless there's another group with the exact same acronym :P

Our members' list is currently hidden due to security reasons, but we may reconsider that to avoid being framed for things done by people not really in our group.

--Justas 21:02, 27 May 2006 (BST)

What about "Hooha"? http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=153100 He killed multiple of my members last night in a PD we had been holding out in, along with MRDi4. This is getting sickening.

-Desmond O'Fara

Not one of ours, either. The group's page has been updated and the members list is public now.

I really don't get what the point of all this framing is. Can't people just simply play this game for fun? :P

--Justas 16:23, 28 May 2006 (BST)

Only the people on our updated page are certified members, I sympathize with your plight but they are not under our jurisdiction. Kripcat - I.U.S.S 08:22, 29 May 2006 (BST)

We had another masquarader kill one of our men. I have a screenshot, but they person in question didnt get thier ID address, unfortunatly. Seeming as these groups are damaging both of our groups, in manpower and in reputation, might I suggest that we hunt them out together?

Here is the screenshot: [[1]]

Older discussion

Just would like you to know I was standing in the revive point at the cemetary and this is what happened. You are lying in a cemetery. The grass between the headstones seems smooth and undisturbed.

Somebody has spraypainted Revive Point, Do Not Kill zombies here - I.U.S.S onto one of the larger gravestones.

There is a group of 10 other zombies here.

There are 9 dead bodies here.

Since your last turn:

   * You heard a distant groaning 3 blocks to the north. (04-29 01:44 BST)
   * A zombie said "Mrh?" (04-29 04:22 BST)
   * A flare was fired 13 blocks to the east. (04-29 08:06 BST)
   * Game News: Significant new game features have been added since your last move. Read Game News (04-29 10:41 BST)
   * A zombie killed a zombie. (04-29 15:53 BST)
   * You heard a loud and distant groaning 2 blocks to the west. (04-29 16:36 BST)
   * A flare was fired 5 blocks to the east and 5 blocks to the south. (04-29 16:39 BST)
   * A zombie attacked you for 4 damage. (04-29 17:12 BST)
   * Fahrenheit 451 attacked you for 3 damage. (04-29 18:13 BST) ...and again. (04-29 18:13 BST) ...and again. (04-29 18:13 BST) ...and again. (04-29 18:14 BST)
   * Fahrenheit 451 attacked you for 8 damage. (04-29 18:14 BST)

   * Fahrenheit 451 attacked you for 8 damage. (04-29 18:15 BST)
   * Fahrenheit 451 attacked you for 4 damage. (04-29 18:15 BST)
   * You took a Headshot from Fahrenheit 451 the Zombie Hunter! You will need to spend an extra 5AP to stand up. (04-29 18:15 BST)
   * A flare was fired 5 blocks to the east and 4 blocks to the south. (04-29 18:36 BST) ...and again. (04-29 18:36 BST)
   * A flare was fired 3 blocks to the west and 10 blocks to the south. (04-29 18:50 BST)
   * A flare was fired 12 blocks to the west and 8 blocks to the south. (04-30 00:59 BST)

You have been killed. So much for getting revived I guess

--Evl kitty

Hmm, indeed such actions cannot be tolerated by our organisation. I shall keep an eye out for this foolish spoilt capitalist and encourage others too to retaliate when possible. And make sure to let them know the justice has been served by the I.U.S.S.

--Justas 08:09, 30 April 2006 (BST)

Join the I.U.S.S and death will no longer be a problem you will have to solve, the state will solve it for you.Kripcat 08:37, 1 May 2006 (BST)

Comrades, we have two more violators of the Sacred Ground Policy residing in West Boundwood. To be specific, "Jolly Rancher" and "Sax the Dead", who attacked a group of zombies (including me) waiting to be revived. Keep watch for them so that we may correct their foolish actions.(Oh, and thanks to Kripkat for coming around and reviving me.) --Thomas O'Shea; May 1st, 2006

I've just been killed by Awesmonius, one of The Badmen. Went to the cemetery at 67,8 (or was it 68,7?) to wait for a revive, so that I could in turn begin reviving others.

--Justas 08:08, 2 May 2006 (BST)

Impostor?

  • Hey guys, Dougward from The Abandoned here. There's a guy in Bale Mall named Innervision with the I.U.S.S. marked down as his affiliation. I'm looking at your member list, and he ain't on there. The Abandoned's internal files have him marked down as a member of the Malton DEA. Just thought you'd be interested. --dougward AB 03:30, 30 May 2006 (BST)
  • Thanks for reporting! Keep 'em coming if there's more ;) --Justas 17:28, 4 June 2006 (BST)
  • Innervision seems to hang around the north east corner of Shuttlebank as well. Ive found them in the saywell towers (38,15) and in the warehouse (37,14) often. To my knowledge Innervision has not done anything to harm TSM members, so I don't really have a decent reason to remove them. I'll leave that up to you guys eh? as of the time of this writing, Innervision is in Norris Bank (39,10)

Emridhs 03:23, 7 June 2006 (BST)

If you guys could do us a big favor and continue updating the wherabouts of the impostors when you see them around, we'd greatly appreciate that. Thanks. Ytookay 19:51, 8 June 2006 (BST)

  • This must be why the stats page says you have 11 members ;) --Certified=Insane 01:03, 8 June 2006 (BST)

Socialist Project

A project has been started and you are asked if your group is interested. See Union of Malton's Socialist Factions.

What happened to this? I have a couple of characters at UD, at I would have at least one of them join the socialists if all the socialist groups either merged or at least united into a firm alliance/coalition/network. Also, would you be interested in organizing a counter to this White Pride Rally known as Operation White Storm? I have a great name for it: Operation Storm Whitey. --Luigi Galleani 17:19, 10 August 2006 (BST)

What is happening?

You no longer appear on the stat pages, your members are hard to spot, we never hear of you, we broadcast on your frequency and don't get replies, and few members frequent your forums... What is happening to one of the most promising socialist groups of Malton? -Certified=InsaneUG 02:02, 4 October 2006 (BST)

Good to see you're getting a grip on yourselves. -Certified=InsaneQuébécois 01:52, 17 October 2006 (BST)

Revenge against your unruly allies

Elias Taylor assaulted me. Since I suspect Emilio told him where I was, therefore indicating collusion within MAF, I smashed their generator. However, I am unsure whether this was in your base or theirs - In a less angry moment, I suspect both. If you express your lack of support of their activities in this case, I will not do this again (if it was your base), and apologise for the inconvenience. Guten tag!--Harald von Holzapfel 16:22, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

revenge? if its revenge what its about, I'll be seeing you on the streets --Lorosidiotas 21:43, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Was ist das? A threat, Emilio? Unless you retract it, I assume that is a threat, and you intend to kill me. In which case.... schlaf gut.....--Harald von Holzapfel 11:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to do the samec to your generator, you better cool it and stop provoking us--Lorosidiotas 20:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

You are not clear in your replies, Emilio. I assume that means you will not attack me directly then. In which case, I will not attack you.--Harald von Holzapfel 11:03, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Why is there no mention of alliance with Malton Anarchist Federation on your page? --Luigi Galleani M(A)C | M(A)F 15:31, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Link

I noticed you didn't have a link to my profile, so I took the liberty of adding one for you.--Born EvilRR 2007 Jan 25 22:58 hrs GMT-7


Are you a Cult?

You have me own as a player killer on your list. I don't deny it but I only kill in the name of Crabapple and those who threaten or have threatened his followers. You seem to portray yourselves as victims when it was you who attacked us first for simply worshipping the sun God who was once known as Crabapple.

You seem to have put alot of effort into your pages, it makes me think you do really take this seriously. But as someone who has looked at the situation in Russia in the early 20th century at a higher education level (university) I suggest you go back to your history books and stop portraying this disturbing period in history in such a romantic way. To be honest it is a disgrace to the memory of the people who suffered.

Communism does not work because it is not in our human nature to follow the true meaning of Communism. We need and always will need leaders because we can not function without leaders. It would be nice to believe that we could live the way that communism suggets but as it has been proven in history it will not work.

I will not kill any I.U.S.S memeber any more because I don't see them as a real threat because they follow an ideal that will never work in the long run. I will however kill a memeber if he attacks me or any from the Crabapple clan, just as you protect your own. Do not seek me out or attack me if I am attending the sites of Crabapple. .--Babette Bade

Ahem, when you helped kill me, I was trying to negotiate a peace with the Crabapples. That doesn't sound like only those who threaten or have threatened (Crabapples) followers. --Luigi Galleani M(A)C | M(A)F 15:13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Groan* - how many times, and on how many pages is Luigi going to go on about this?!? As a member of the mass murdering terrorist group MAF, you are guilty by association, you arch propagandist, you! (yes, we've seen all your subtlety prejudiced backgrounds on every other suburb page on the wiki!) Especially since they'd already started the fighting, as you monotonously fail to recognize. Anyway, Babette was talking to the I.U.S.S., not you. We doubt your terrorist group is likely to be included in the statement (although you'd have to ask her) --Crabappleslegalteam 01:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

The PKer Page

A user by the name of PKAssasin, who obviously can't spell, added the I.U.S.S. to the Player Killer Philosophy as a supporter of killing other players. This is a new user, and that page is the site of his only contributions. If this is in error, please let me know so that it may be corrected. --Banana reads Scoundrell for all of Yesterday's News, Today! 15:19, 8 June 2007 (BST)

The goal of the IUSS is not to PK. They have PKed in the past, but it was out of retaliation. It should be removed. -Certified=InsaneQuébécois 20:49, 9 June 2007 (BST)
I will remove the inaccurate information and report the vandal. --Banana reads Scoundrell for all of Yesterday's News, Today! 21:35, 9 June 2007 (BST)

The Great Suburb Group Massacre

Stop hand.png Group Active? Request.
In order to maintain the wiki as an up to date source of information groups are occasionally removed from the Suburb pages when they are no longer active. Is this group still active? If so simply confirm here by writing something below. If not it will be removed from suburb pages in 14 days.


Currently the suburb in question is West Boundwood but one response to this query will be all that is needed to protect your group link on all suburb pages. I know this is a random request but its for all groups regardless of size. Thank you. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 21:12, 25 July 2008 (BST)
