What the....fuck?
I agree with alienb.
I actually started this so here it is in a nutshell.
Basically, on Friday there is going to be an update. There will be group PvP missions and so on and so forth. Now, the Itani and Serco are bordering each other in 2 places, therefore there will be a state of ongoing war. What Verdandi is suggesting is that the Itani Nation open diplomatic talks with the Serco Dominion.
As for the Neutral Territories, we are also involved. I am the diplomatic leader for NT and Verdandi is the leader for the Itani Nation. Information regarding this event can be found here:

ooc- We need the war, its the foundation of the entire game! No peace talks ahhhhhh
It's easier to assasinate leaders when you know where they are.
I propose that the talks focus on ensuring the war remains in a single system, so as not to endanger trade elsewhere. If we must fight, so be it, but let's not burn the universe.
ooc - And since there's maybe ten people on at a given time, we'd actually be able to find each other. fun, eh?

Perhaps you misunderstand the gravity of the situation. I shall attempt to enlighten you. When we Serco declare war, we do not do so lightly. We will destroy your ships, raze your bases, burn your worlds, and on the smoking ruins of your civilization we shall hold a grand Itani Baby-Q in which we consume your children with tangy mesquite sauce and hearty homestyle baked beans. Peace offering indeed.
Serco Prime out.

While I generally prefer not to dwell in the past, it was Itani atrocities which forged our people into what we are. Just as a sword can be used to slay its maker, the fine edge of Serco revenge will bite deeply into the side of the Itani people. I personally will not be attending the Baby-Q as I find that mesquite sauce causes me some indigestion, However there can be no peace between our people after what your race has done to us.

<<<Second, "Itani Baby-Q" is out of line and off-topic for this thread. This was a serious idea meriting serious discussion>>>
I'm afraid that some people really are that crude and insulting phrases and references like the Baby-Q have made their way into real diplomatic correspondences in the past. Politics is basically a cruel game of insults at times. For a good example refer to some of the correspondence between the english and french nobles during the hundred years war.
Once you start a thread you cant really decide that something is out of taste in it unless it violates the board rules.
As to my E-Mail, hmm it appears that I edited the wrong line, it should have read co.sdf.sol2stronghold.K8@SolII.sys the only thing i meant to change was the CO (it was forwarded to me i'm bored and want to play too), replacing the drb with the e-mail address of the commandng officer . (unfortunately that seems to be me since pyroman is no longer with us, hmm wait that might be a good thing, my reply was tasteful compared to what his might have been)
ON topic will have to wait for later since i have to go cook dinner right now.

Dinner was good and we (my wife and i) went out for ice cream afterwards, anyhow back and:

I believe that we have nothing to negotiate. While I do not personally hold any dislike for your suggestion, the past has been written and the lines have been drawn.
We are not so naive as we once were, your attempt to get us to allow an itani ship close enough to our homeworld to infiltrate your spies into our population has been seen for what it truly is. Any Itani pilot violating Serco borders, firing upon serco ships, or sneaking around inside Serco territory will be dealt with accordingly.
I also feel that I should apologize for the Baby-Q remark made by my associate. We would never barbeque children, such an act would be without honor. I am an honorable man, and like all true warriors will rejoice when peace is upon us. You may rest assured that your children are quite safe, we will ensure that they are raised to understand how wrong the actions of the Itani Government were after we make them into orphans. They will recieve the best care we can provide them after we have obliterated the Itani menace from space once and for all. That is the only true way that peace may exist in our galaxy, and the search for a return to earth may be undertaken without the waste of war.

Commanding Officer, Serco Defense Force.

We must not stop diplomatic attempts. The minimum we should achieve is a temporary cease-fire. Our requests are not to completly end this dispute, which is obviously impossible. We ask only that you accept to open diplomatic talks, during which would be a cease-fire. The Neutral Territory High Council fears for our safety and that our convoys will be held captive for ransom, or possibly destroyed out of pure anger. We need confirmation that you will accept our requests. We await an answer from both sides.

we see no need in the current state of the universe to open peace talks between either of the nations. the situation is not stable enough yet, too much work could (and would) go to waste. on a larger scale (temporally speaking), peace is the status quo one should strive for, yet this can not happen until there means to enforce it.

Your trader convoys will be left alone unless we find need for the materials they carry. Be satisfied with that, for we have no quarrel with you just yet. Count your pitiful blessings and dig a deep hole to hide in, for when Lady Serco instructs us to come for you, there will be a reckoning, and your faithless little backyard empire, like that of the treacherous Itani before it will fall to our mighty warcruisers.
