So if enforcing mutual deals is a community based code, why can't enforcing fair play without bullying be community code as well? Cause it doesn't benefit the high and mighty and only the oh let's say 2000 players that aren't competing for crowns? This is exactly the problem that most of the competing players don't get. You need those 2000 players. But yet you give them no way to enjoy the game. Most don't come to the forum , they just quit.Quote:

When I was in the warring tier winning honour crowns, getting waved by the competition was considered normal regardless of size. I guarantee there were other options for SS and others as well but they didn't wanna fight the strong guy, as I stated above. You leave the guy who wants the honour crown no choice but to wave you because, face it, they got goals and they're gonna go for them. They didn't break any of the major gameplay rules: 1 v 1, honouring declared war, etc. Is it a little bit mean/distasteful for them to wave someone that much smaller? Sure. But what else do you expect them to do, abandon their goals because you (SS) are being a bunch of weaklings and won't fight? It's not fair to ask someone to abandon their goals like that. As long as they offered you a decent fight before just waving you, why are you whining? I bet they offered more than once this age. You're all whining because you didn't get what you wanted and now you're throwing a fit. I would consider it to be a totally different story if you guys had warred them already at least once. But the fact that you constantly run just confirms that you know you're weaker and you don't deserve the win because you can't beat the best. Crowning without beating the best is an empty victory anyways. When they're getting ganged up on because they're just better, smarter, and stronger, like they are right now, then they absolutely ARE the victim. Getting your 1 v 1 fight and war violated is totally unacceptable behavior unless they had deal broken or violated those 1 v 1 or war terms already themselves, which they have not. Bullying is not against the rules and we both know war offers were there. It's a war game for gods sake, I expect it to a point. And so should you. I know you guys would whine if everyone going forwards stopped honouring your deals, hit into all of your hostiles and wars with impunity, and in general treated you like a piece of trash. Double standards galore coming from your camp. This community has developed these codes over time and we're not gonna let you break them without messing you up. Fair gameplay doesn't protect you from the stronger people. It protects you from major interference only. Which you yourselves are violating right now without justification. Gangbang over bullying is laughable. Not our problem you're weaker than them. To the strong go the victors. WAR GAMEQuote:

Stop posting bs and trying to back up your actions. SS had already said many times they are not intersted in honor crown, and FS have already secured it. SS was only prepping for an agreed war and not randomly waving ghettos for honor like FS are. SS also messaged FS many times prior to leaving EOWCF but those PMs were ignored on purpose - obviously, because you are going to wave us no matter waht. So this is FS just trying to assert their superiority over us by full waving our honor away, mostly on our tms and in the process destroy any hopes we had of having another fun war before eoa. You didn't just want honor crown, even though you already secured it. No, you wanted to demoralize all opponents and opposition who are even close to you. You also propose these terms for a CF: 1. Never dare come within range of our honor again (85%), regardless if you gain more from legitimate wars. 2. Intra raze your honor if you ever do. 3. Never war kds we are cfed with (pretty much all of the top and those in range of us), which basically leaves SS to stagnate till EOA, while you continue bottomfeed waving kds much smaller than you for honor. So yes, practice what you preach. Enjoy the consequences of your own actions.Quote:

You already have honor crown secured. But wasn't enough for your own egos, needed to smash and bash any opposition, even though SS had no interest in crown.
fS had two provs deleted?
Ya because who ever heard of a kingdom gaining honor in war. This is the silliest comment yet.Quote:

Excuse me for my lack of understanding of this game, but wouldn't a 3.1k honor difference constitute something easily passable in your upcoming arranged war?Quote:

I am not SS and we were not offered a fair fight. We also never ran. We were also not competing for the honor crown, we did have some honor from warring though. We got waved anyway. You obviously get very onesided information fed to you.Quote:

SS was also working on a war agreement with Divinity. But it hinged on FS giving a binding cf which they declined. Zauper was trying to mediate.However FS stopped responding to messages from SS(these things are compiled out of different conversations and if I got any of it wrong it was not intentional, please correct me).
The reason I believe that scenerio is because they did the same things to us, ignored all messages for hours even though they were read and monarch was online.
FS has done this to several kingdoms.
Their arranged war was with divinity. It would have been very hard for them to win or gain honorQuote:

That's very strange, isn't Divinity even too big for FS to handle at the moment, let alone SS?Quote:

That's not correct. The diplo environment is unsavory for SS. This is in essence grand standing a position. I'm an honorable player and I'm clearly aware that the deck is stacked against kingdoms outside of what amounts to an alliance. Your alliance.Quote:

Do you think kingdoms are reacting as bad sports because the are inferior to you in some capacity? Of course you do, based on this commentary. You don't know these players. I do. And I know many of yours as well.
When we speak of honorable players we must also speak of the privilege of our surroundings. Just like being in a civilized environment we have the privilege to pump, to reach larger land mass and expect our enemies to inform us beforehand if they plan to attack us. There are no such privileges below this realm. For this reason, every war you face from a lower nw kingdom is easily in your favor. If you've ever read the nonsense in the Strategy Thread you know that many ghettos are intentionally misguided. This means they must unfold the secrets of the game without the benefit of the players that many of you have occupying the same space.
So you might be rendering an argument about "what alliance?". Excuse me for waiting to drop the other shoe but the "notice" environment is in of itself an alliance. You can offer the fact that you actually fight each other, but the reality is this provides all you need to be in superior position to all who might oppose you. This is precisely what you need to pump almost freely.
Blame yourselves for not being stewards of the game. From my naive perspective it appears some decisions were made on how many of the tops want to exit the game as it's killer. This doesn't make it true, but this is what it appears to be. The elitist rhetoric is thick and I find that offensive. Oh, it's gentile but it is elitist. Many don't understand trophy hunting; the privilege to kill the last of it's kind. I do understand this mentality.
The top is experiencing the resistance of players that want to play. You call their(SS) actions dishonorable and I call yours even more so. You will not agree with me, but these kingdoms didn't decide to take from the top out of random anger. You invaded their territory under the guise of competitive righteousness with all your powers. You speak of competition yet for FS I see 9 kingdoms above their station and holding. It's about the crown? No. Because you guys knew you would hit yourselves out of range until someone grew who fought for those honor points. Stop patting yourselves on the back. My honor is based in me proving it against the odds. The odds are heavily in your favor. This is when the honorable remain silent.
Merry Christmas by the way. I'm sure you're all nice people, and I mean that.
