General (Four star) Dmitri Tiger sat at his big desk at the Central Felucan Command complex. The window was open, a view of the mountains visable, forming the horizon.

One little paw lifted up a sheet of paper, which he scanned over, squinting. Then he pressed a button on his intercom. A moment later, a male-wolf Colonel and a female-rabbit Lieutenant walked in.

General Dmitri lifted the paper, "Wot's this mean?"

The Lieutenant took the sheet, read it. "Uh sir. Seems Geneticon 'Black Listed' our nation. No reason given."

Dmitri frowned, scratching at his whiskers. "But wot's it mean?"

The Colonel cleared his throat, "Assumedly we offended them somehow. They refuse to sell us military arms."

The Lieutenant shuffled through her log book. "We don't actually buy any arms from them in the first place. 96% of our military equipment is built right here in Feluca."

Dmitri glowered, "Ten whoi do we care?"

Colonel Gaven smiled at the smoldering little tiger, "They're doing it for political reasons, sir. Intent unknown. It's really nothing to worry about. They lack both the political willpower and the strength to make a move against us. Beyond that, we have allies. Kraven and Willink to point out some."

The young Lieutenant grinned thoughtfully, "I say we 'black list' them as well. According to the records, they've never purchased any of our goods, so it's no harm. We don't ..actually have a black list. It's rather childish. We'd need to make one up just for this occassion."

Dmitri crumped up the letter and tossed it into the trash bin. "Verrah well. Black List 'em! An' also.. call 'em stupid."

Colonel Gaven rolled his eyes heavenwards, trying hard not to laugh. "Yes sir."

The next day..

New Feluca Responds to Foreign 'Black List'

New Felucan military industries have announced today that they will no longer allow the sale of non-civilian equipment to the country of Geneticon. Due to political and security needs, this nation will no longer be allowed to conduct non-civilian business of any kind in Felucan territory.

Also, General Dmitri Tiger has denounced the whole affair as 'Stupid' and beneath the Felucan people as a whole.

OOC: what's the link

IC: We ask to know why Geneticon would do such a thing. Knowing them, it could be for anything.

OOC: Here's the link to his storefront. I'm 'blacklisted' without any stated reason as far as I can tell. http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=479386

IC: Indeed. It could likely be for anything. There has been no apparent stated reason.

Official GAFE Message to the World:

The rules on our storefront state clearly, we do not have to give a reason for our black list. We expect a retaliation of blacklisting and honor that decision. We bear no ill will towards Xeno but we do feel that we cannot sell them arms. Thank you.

Guess we'll have to get our generic modern fighting equipment from any other storefront in the world then. Or forbid, build it ourselves.

We appreciate the offer. Currently, around 95% of our military needs are met by homegrown (ORIGINAL DESIGNS) equipment. However, we are always watching for opportunities to make use of foreign arms which suit our military.

OOC: lol... do you think I would actually send someone. No, the message was sent via satellite communications.

OOC: Then go back and delete your posts, because the Felucans aren't accepting communications from your nation. They don't talk to barbarians.
