From what I am aware of.. my faction, Mcgurt, never threathened any of the top-25 factions (specially OBO)... Even our war-time chatters during Columbia never talked in anger about any top-25 factions that are aspiring to become top-10 as well.. and there were no discussion of specifically targeting OBO.
Mcgurt originally started as a top-100 faction, we strived to make progress one step at a time.. So we fully understand your situation OBO (and the rest of the top-25 faction)..
(Although I cannot speak for the rest of the top-10 placers) I must tell you that you have McGurt's full sympathy and encourage you to compete w/ us for the top-10 spot fair and square.. But rest assured, McGurt is fully ready to meet any challenges ahead in the top-10 arena..
So goodluck buddy, McGurt wishes you all the luck... and see yah in the battlefield...
