Greetings, Pilots!
You may have heard of this player group - Paladin Consortium — a proud fighters for safer Galaxy. Ones that help new pilots to be introduced to the world of Elite, without danger of them being killed by some mad griefer. Well, you've heard correct. Though your information is, apparantely, outdated. Let me explain why.
Two years ago — before Dangerous Games and before EG Pilots have grown to where we are now, before PC becoming protectors of the new pilots — there was a short conflict between EG Pilots and Paladin Consortium - relatively close neighbours. The real reasons for this conflict was unknown to us, well, until latests events. One day, our systems were openly attacked by PC pilots without any notice. An emergency council was established to understand the situation and prevent this conflict. I was the one to establish our very first diplomatic channel with another player group. After long, hard, and, sometimes, harsh discussions, we've finally understood what the reasons were.
Apparantely, the Paladin Consortium was suffering from long BGS disruptions from unknown source, which they were publishing over forums. One of our former pilots, who were expelled for malignant violating our community rules, have figured that arranging a fight between two player groups would be fun to look at, so he told PC that it's EGP — at that day a small BGS group of 3 controlled systems — was the reason of this attacks for all this long time. Though understandably furious, but nevertheless, hasty reaction of PC had followed. But we prefered the way of diplomacy and during our first ever diplomatic negotiations I had an honor to speak with commander Digitarry, a man I've considered reasonable and adequate, and even counted him among my first foreign friends...until today. We were seeking only peace with other player factions, we still were exploring BGS and it's features, and this conflict were ruining our expansion and thus we finally achieved the signing of our first dimplomatic treaty, the text of which I'm to present here, as well as denounce it, because of latest treacherous and deceitful actions of Paladin Consortium "leadership". This is an improved version of the agreement, signed following the implementation of "Retreat" mechanic in patch 2.1.
After that we even helped PC against their BGS problems, sharing our knowledge of BGS and helping them where we could. After certain time we helped PC to make their first succesful expansion, despite the constant counteractions against them. Both our groups had a prosperous growth ever since, we were loayl to our agreements, as well as were Paladins.
The negotiation themselves, as I've mentioned earlier, were hard and harsh, one reason for it is that during "cease fire" time, the PC pilots usually didn't stop, and their leaders were not very eager to stop them. And so, recently, the new Paladins ' leadership have decided to show us how PC value their word and honor. Without any negotiations, despite the working dimplomatic channel, they have declared war on us, using false claims and lies, trying to make us look like agressors.
There were no "dicsussion" with any officer of EGP about this "incident". There weren't any atempts from PC to settle this situation. After that Big Pappa hust disappeared like other Big P and didn't reply on anything. I was trying to contact the former leader of the PC - CMDR MARSHALL. He step down as a leader of Paladins long ago, but could help us stop this madness, using his authority of an Ex-Leader.. However, he was unsuccesfull, though he tried, as he said. And I intend to believe him. Digitarry, the former PC ambassador proved himself as a weak-willed person, who couldn't go against THE NEW course of his masters, no matter how utterly dispeakable and Crooked it is. So now you see the true face of the "Galactic protectors", the Paladins in shining armor — Opportunists, betrayers, vow-breakers and agressors.
I appeal to all true Paladins of the Consortium! I know, not everyone agree with that foolish conflict, some of you who does — were decieved. I now that, because your some of your pilots have contacted me on the matter, I know that, because a part of your ambassadors have left their roles and left the PC embassy, because of how dirty community they represent have become. Don't let these warmongering scoundrels to rule the roost in your group - fight them! Fight them, and we will put an end to this together.
This is not official stance of EG Pilots, and it was not sanctioned by the High Council, but I invoke my right of the Ambassador of EG Union, EG Pilots and Yuri Grom, the Prime Speaker of the High Council of Euryale and DENOUNCE all agreements and between EG Pilots and Paladin Consortium, due to impossibility to follow of the paragraphs of the treaty, because of unprovoked agression from Paladin COnsortium party. They were signed by my hand and by my hand I tear them to pieces. I would gladly sign a new agreement with Paladin Consortium, but not with this mob of ruffians. All current members of PC are now suspended from our Diplomatic server for incompetence and inability to fulfill their roles:
CMDR Big Pappa (Reason - refusing to communicate, incitement of war)
CMDR NordicLion (Reason - inactivity during diplomatic incident)
CMDR M.Grey (Reason - refusing to communicate).
I invite new PC leadership to join us, and work on a new agreement between EGP and PC - we're counting on you.
If EGP leadership decides that this actions are too hard — I will accept my Expulsion from my titles, because I do not want to be a guarantor for agreements that are not working and my duty and my job description suggestes the current course of actions.
Freedom Among the Stars!
With grief on my heart
