hmm i think i got my land back lol

sue for peace? The only other person I have ever heard use that phrase is aqua. Where is that phrase commonly used?

Suing for peace is when one side presses for an end to hostilities.

The losing side may sue for peace to avoid unconditional surrender or retain something not yet lost, etc.

The winning side might sue for peace because its not in their best military and/or political interests to continue to decimate its enemy, people and infrastructure, etc..

dragon, synoder asked where is the phrase commonly used, not a definition that could be more easily found in a google search than a forum post.

to answer synoder's question the speak is normally only in newspapers as far as i could tell. it isn't in everyday speech because it is a diplomacy effort that requires a nation to be at war by definition. it may also be in textbooks but other than those situations, you would hear it on a telecast by a prime minister or president or reporter describing political events. it may be used in all English-speaking locations although i couldn't say that in certainty as i don't know how one would find exactly where the phrase may be used.

If he didn't know WHERE the term was used, he likely didn't know the definition, Einstein :)

your verbosity is impressive dragon, keep it up.

I personally prefer the term prolixity, thank you very much. In the future, please try to accommodate my wishes. You'll have my undying gratitude as a result.

lol you googled verbosity as you did suing for peace, your incalculable genius continues to astonish those less worthy.

Actually, I didn't Google suing for peace. The term was far more widely used decades ago than now and usually in writing or documentaries.

I don't know how old you are, but the fact that I'm 50 and a War/History buff is why I'm familiar with the term. I wouldn't call the term "suing for peace" archaic, but it's also not commonly used, obviously.

The Allies sued for peace at the end of the first Gulf War, but that specific verbiage was not applied in any public way that I recall.

i guess that's that. hostilities ended

war closed

Incroyable! A 50 year old. Not to say that it isn't alright to be older, but I thought you were younger because of how childish you act when someone doesn't recite "NBK is the best" 10x when leaving their bed.

You claim suing for peace is not archaic, yet use an archaic definition of verbiage? Unless you mean to imply that suing for peace is excessive or wordy, which I assure you it is not.

Ahh... SO now we begin the personal insult phase. Last refuge of the Ignorant and all..

What does suing for peace and your arbitrary assignment of the label "archaic" to the word verbiage have to do with one another?

Come up with something better than that if you want to argue. Of course, I might be arguing with a woman from the looks of this, in which case, I'm straight up doomed.

yeah I knew it what it meant based on context, was wondering if it was a common term cause like I said, I have only heard it from aqua.

I was not arguing if you could re-read my post. Nor did I insult you. If to say that one's acts are childish (when those include something about a female gamer "licking nuts" the adjective is more than fitting) is an insult to you, you might try maturing. Once matured, you will look back at the adjectives used to describe your activities and actions as fitting. You may only see your true self when self-actualized. But you would know nothing of intelligence or education, since you failed to see where you error was in your statement. Allow me to educate you:

verbiage means excessive use of words;wordiness.
Suing for peace is hardly an "excess" of words.

verbiage in the 'archaic' (note that you arbitrarily brought he word in, and claim somehow my assignment which is more accurate than your own is a falsety haha) sense would be simply diction, choice of words if you will. That is the definition of verbiage you implied to use, an older, rarer use since it's been out of use for almost 50 years in that sense.

Again, try harder or your own shortcomings will be your downfall.

keep in mind that, although I am not a native English speaker I have a more profound control of your language than you do Dragon. Enjoy that for what it's worth.

Verbiage also means the manner in which one uses words to express him or herself, oh Great Language Commander.

That would apply to the term "suing for peace" as it is an alternate verbiage of "negotiating a peace" or any other way one might express the idea.

If you choose to brandish your self-importance and promote your linguistic superiority, it would serve you better to actually be correct.

Are you in Semper Fi by chance? Or do you just dislike NBK because they do not fit your model of acceptability?

You can probably poll the entire membership of NBK that reads this forum and to the last one of them, they'll probably tell you that I've certainly not always been supportive of NBK, its members, its agenda or its philosophy in recent times let alone be the sycophant you attempt to make me out to be.

Feel free to grind your axe, but be advised that since you decided to initiate this discourse uninvited, I will certainly pay more attention to what you say and invite myself into YOUR house. It's a matter of reciprocity and that's not always positive. :)

Finally this thread caught some traction!

If I felt offended every time someone chose to care about what I said I would certainly be in the wrong.

I'm not in SemperFi, I lead my own one man tag. The words I say are always backed by my actions, very much unlike yours. I saw that an alliance like NBK was bullying (no surprise, as they had SALT members in it) and saw to it that I would stand up to them in whatever fashion I could. I am in no way going to support clans like NBK or IMP and won't act blind to their actions like some alliances do.

And if I might ask, how is NBK "bullying" anyone this set and Semper Fi was somehow exempt from your designation of "bully" when they warred a MUCH smaller NBK LAST set simply because NBK would not give them a pact?

Please go bathe. You reek of hypocrisy.

NBK FS'd SF.

SF got vengeance on NBK and returned fire.

NBK returned again, threatening alliances that wouldn't pact them with war.

The same thing happened last set and NBK complained. The same thing happened oppositely this set and SF didn't complain.

Now go bathe, you reek of idiocy.

"NBK returned again, threatening alliances that wouldn't pact them with war."

Um if you read the pm that I posted on FFAT you can see that I never threatened anyone with war and in fact made it as clear as possible that I was NOT saying that. Mdev just interpreted it differently cause he had some previous issues with NBK.

You have an incredibly bad attitude, you're arrogant, self-absorbed, nowhere NEARLY as clever as you believe yourself to be, and aren't likely to win any congeniality contests anytime soon.

I think you'd be a perfect fit for ESD. Care to join us?

I wouldn't waste too much time defending NBK to someone who really has no significant history, stature, knowledge or credibility in the entire history of the game. "Street Cred" has some importance here and that goes all the way back to 1996.
