I hereby replace in my vocabulary the word "honourable" with "(I am a tosser)", and "dishonourable" with "(thus,I am a tosser)".

For example: "Clan Peephole you are an honourable enemy" shall become in my mind "Clan Peephole you are an (I am a tosser) enemy".

The reason for this is all the long winded whinging that occurs due to perceived notions of honour or the lack of it. Titans are not merely robots and their unpredictability is what makes the battlesphere interesting.

If Clan Cow Fish attacks your defenceless migrating breeders, a simple "Clan Cow Fish attacked my defenceless migrating breeders, what a bastard!" will suffice. We'll believe you. A 2 page essay on the dates, coords, relative titan strengths... etc, will only make some of us think, "sure Clan Cow Fish is a bastard, but I wish he'd hurry up and wipe Clan Wet Blanket of the face of the planet, that may shut him up".

So in short I'd like to propose a toast to the rogue elements of this game. You may be bastards, and I'll certainly steer clear of you, but long may you prosper and pummel the wet blankets of this world.

To those who perceive honour to be the greatest word in the English language, you are welcome to replace in your vocab the words "Bac Ho" with whatever you see fit.

ps: Americans, who may not know what tosser means, go and buy a real dictionary.
