Militaries Sans Frontieres

Hey Foxlion, by chance I saw your deletion request on your misspelled group page and have carried it out. However, sys-ops do not always watch every random page. If you want to get rid of a page again, a more reliable way is to file a request at UDWiki:Administration/Speedy Deletions, or as short-hand A/SD. If you ever have a question about admin stuff, feel free to spam my talk page. -- Spiderzed█ 23:00, 22 September 2012 (BST)

I've also just seen your signature had non-closed tags, which garbled all the following page on the text. I have just fixed it as I saw it. -- Spiderzed█ 23:03, 22 September 2012 (BST)

Signature looks good now code-wise. As for your group page, a good first step is usually to add and fill out Template:Groupbox by typing {{Groupbox}} along with all the parameters explained here, and to add the basic group category such as Category:Survivor Groups or Category:Zombie Groups or Category:PKer Groups. -- Spiderzed█ 13:58, 23 September 2012 (BST)

RE: My criticism

Thank you for your kind words, Foxlion.
I assure you, there was a great deal I left unsaid. The irreverence shown by the DEM, DHPD, Knights Templar, and ACC towards the groups they lured to Blackmore with promises of glory, yet left conveniently out of their planning threads is really the height of their crime. Failing to bring any plan to the table when going into the most dangerous suburb in Malton may have been the height of incompetence, but leading others on - those who trusted in their reputation and numbers - into such a disappointment really deserves at the least an apology.
Instead, I suspect you'll have to make do with empty claims of a symbolic victory and a sour taste in your mouth at the memory of the 'glory'. Perhaps not the best introduction to major events in the city for you. I wish things could have been different (I would have enjoyed helping my colleagues PK you in Blackmore, had there been time!), but that's the state of the current mainstream survivor population.
As it happens, your new mercenary group has caught my eye several times. You don't seem to shy away from unorthodox methods or from PKing. I rather like that. Should you wish to engage in other such...unorthodox events, please feel free to contact me. You can find me either on the wiki (which I check only occasionally), on the PK forum, or (most often) on IRC, on the Nexuswar server, going by the name DT. Do consider stopping by some time. I'm sure we'd have much to talk about.
Praise Knowledge!--DT^PK 06:23, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

We are always glad to find an ally, so I'll be sure to stop by the PK forums or IRC when I get the chance. Had I not been intrigued by the idea of making a mercenary group, I probably would have joined the Philosophe Knights, as Ignorance has repeatedly struck me as the worst enemy of the survivors, more so than zombies. I've often suspected the major survivor groups of incompetence, which is why I never joined them, and this incident seems to prove it beyond doubt. Yes, the fact that the leading survivor groups refused to grant access to their planning threads was an annoyance, and an insult, when one considers no planning went on after all, despite their secrecy.

Unlike the survivor groups who led this November debacle, I do believe in keeping one's promise and commitment, so MSF will continue to help the survivor cause in Ridleybank for this month, as we stated on our wiki pages, though I assure you we will keep a yard away from any DEM rallies. But directly after that, I hope to make the bureaucrats regret their irresponsible leadership through the bitterness of death. May the ignorant learn from their sufferings! I'm glad this mess at least allowed me to make the acquaintance of one of the few intelligent minds left in Malton. Anyway, adieu, and I do hope we can soon bring death on the arrogant survivors. --  FOXLION    07:32, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

Minor Request

On this edit, would you mind changing it so as it's my O13 alt (Jayson Exccks) that invited you? 'Tis a really minor request. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 05:23, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Ah, sure. I'll change it on the forums, too. --   FOXLION    05:29, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Sweet. Have a cookie.

	A FREE COOKIE

Hm, much better than Russian rations. :) --  FOXLION    05:43, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Barricade Enforcement

FYI they were an offshoot of The Dead randomly pking people for failing to follow non existent barricade plans, including several who didn't even possess Construction. They never were a survivor group. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 20:20, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

No problem. A lot of people were fooled.--Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 21:41, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

The Fox and the Lion - older than the Renaissance

As much as I like Machiavelli (and his two main works Principe and Discorsi are an absolutely required reads IMHO), at this point he was probably referencing a much older aphorism: "Where the lion's skin will not reach, it must be pieced with the fox's." - Lysander, Spartan general, 4th century BC, (as recorded by Plutarch - context) -- Spiderzed█ 11:40, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh yes, I was completely forgetting about that one. I don't know why, but I never got into Greek history as much as the myths. Not enough violence and irony for me, I suppose. I like my stories very bloody and twisted. I never gave Plutarch the attention he deserves, but I'll take a look at this one, since anything with references to fox-lions and using cunning tactics in war make good reading. I love the Internet Classics Archive, too. Thanks for the reference. --  FOXLION    21:12, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks again for the link. Been reading it for the past hour, and I'm enjoying it. I think I like this Lysander. Ruthless, cunning, but honorable in a way. My kind of thinking. I appreciate leaders and soldiers who choose not to live in decadent luxury, and always keep working for their goals. --  FOXLION    07:20, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

JRC forums

Hey! we've made a forum for the JRC where we can actually coordinate. Tell me in what general area you reside and I will try to find you to fill you in on the rest. --Leiter 02:49, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

You've Earned It

Congratulations!

	Well!
	Foxlion certainly didn't expect some sort of Spanish Inquisition!

--Mallrat ^{TSI TKS CTD} 03:31, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Why, thank you. Yes, I certainly didn't expect this sort of Spanish Inquisition. Just the confession that you Cardinals like smoking, have secret wives, and are supporters of the Borgia family, and my surprise will be complete. ;) --  FOXLION    01:16, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

What does...

...leveling up for 2 to 3 in Javascript look like? I'm kinda curious. :P —Aichon— 04:32, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
