Why hello forum goers. As I said in my 'Thoughts on this world' thread, I am starting my own newspaper. It will be called 'The Little Green Man,' one of my aliases. The first thing I will be writing about is what alliances seem to think of each other. I have sent questionnaires to the founders of several prominent alliances including the fascinating Capitalist Pigs. Romair has been the first to reply, and his first response alone is enough to demand a post. Here is what he said:

Well hello DetroitLeprechaun,
I am very familiar with who you are as I pay close attention to the External forums but never bothered to say anything. I've often enjoyed your posts.
Author has written the following:
1. Who do you think is the best alliance leader besides yourself?
Hmm, I would have to say the Leaders Mr. Quiet and Warrior1005 of The Marines. They are a good group.
Author has written the following:
2. Who is the worst alliance leader?
I believe that the worst alliance leader no longer has an alliance to lead. I'll leave it at that without saying any names.
Author has written the following:
3. What alliance is the most overrated?
For the most part I've had respectable dealings with most alliances I've come into contact with. All of them hold up to their reputations and then some.
Author has written the following:
4. What alliance is the most underrated?
I would say alliances like The Outcasts and The Marines. Both of them have a strong teamwork ethic and neither have to bully their own members to accomplish their goals.
Author has written the following:
5. If you could infiltrate any alliance and obtain founder rights, effectively dissolving it, which one would you choose?
I wouldn't. I consider this the tactic weak alliance that is desperate to "survive".
Author has written the following:
6. Who is the biggest noob in the entire server?
That would be the same person who I didn't mention in question #2.
Author has written the following:
7. How would you describe the mentality of your alliance?
Pragmatic and Patient.
Author has written the following:
8. If you were the founder of The Archangels, what would you do?
Persevere, or become a sister alliance to a like minded group.
Author has written the following:
9. Which alliance do you think resembles the stereotypical MRA the closest?
Hard question. I don't spend too much time eyeing other alliances unless they are allies. I wouldn't consider any of my allies to fit that mold.
Author has written the following:
10. What do you think of the alliance Renegades?
So far I have had no dealing with this group.

Based off of what I've heard so far from him, his alliance, Elysium, tends to keep down the straight and narrow. Not too inquisitive it appears. That's the easiest way not to annoy people I suppose, but not my cup of tea. Wait, I don't drink tea. Oh well.
Romair has mentioned an exiled leader of some sort and called him a noob. Romair chose to make said leader anonymous, I do not know his identity. He must have done something quite awful for such secrecy to occur.
After this I inquired about their dealings with The Marines, as I inferred that they were an ally. Here was his response:

Yes, they are a recent ally. In the little time that we have had dealings with one another their teamwork and spirit have impressed me. To me the quality of an alliance is based on the quality of the people within the alliance. I personally don't care about point value, city or army size, ABP, DBP, whether you are new to the game or a veteran. The only thing that makes my radar is if you are a quality person and can work as part of a team. The Marines have that in abundance.
An interesting point he has made. I myself joined this server with the goal of not working with any arrogant jerks. However, Snapping Turtles will not send you an invite unless your city is what we would consider 'functional.' His response here could potentially lead to Elysium and The Marines being called an MRA.
Later in the interview, I asked him for his definition of an MRA. This is what he said:
"To me an MRA is any alliance who massively recruits for the sole purpose of having more people and more points. Even if that means they have to antagonize and bully the players into joining. I've always disliked those who recruit by farming someone until they join. This does not lead to loyal players or a decent alliance." He seems to believe that MRAs are aggressive, which is contrary to the common belief.
Now you know what's up. Other than the sky.
