You are absolutely wrong for not approaching pew pew. It does not matter what you doubt; you did not try. I did suggest GBing them, though I don't see where I suggested to hit into their war. I am very clearly the advocate of diplomatic solution but you did not try diplomacy at all with the actual culprit of the situation and after the event you have no care to approach them either. In short, you are telling them to repeat this again next age because you will never do anything to convince them to stop.
You clearly haven't read a single post I've made so I'll address the only applicable comment you have.
So in your view, what pew pew did is perfectly acceptable, but what Rage did is not? If you think it is not a good way to play then you need to cut it at the source. If you wont attack the source of the problem then:
Why is there a need for a outside kd to even engage in diplomatic relations? Why should anyone act like a utopian police? Thats just lame.You are absolutely wrong for not approaching pew pew.

What I dont get in all this, you obviously dont play, you have a very limited knowledge. I just assume you based your "knowledge" from reading in the forums which hardly gives the whole picture in anything.
You are just arguing for the sake of arguing now. You base all of this on forum posts, and thats not much to go on. You clearly love reading your own well worded essays, but give it a rest. You are not involved in this, and im tired of all the theories and advices on how things should have been handled.
It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it.
Why do you feel that kingdoms and/or players should be able to do whatever they wish and no one else should be able to say or do anything about it?
While these words are true, and this is the second time you've said it, you've failed both times to point out any actual flaw in my opinion. Do you have some insight provided from your extensive knowledge that others in this thread have failed to speak out on? Or do you just like to imply that I can't possibly grasp the situation until I make a province? Have you always been a narrow minded forum troll?
The actions of a few speak volumes to many.
I'm speaking on this situation for one reason only:
The actions taken directly affect my decision to return to the game. I have accepted an offer to join with a friend of mine at the start of the new age because of the current conclusion to this situation (where a diplomatic resolve was accepted).
An incomplete resolution means that there is a high chance I will be affected by a repeat of this situation next age when I am playing, so it's my current stand to try and get you and your allies to actually deal with the situation. In my view, if you're unwilling to care about pew pew now, you will be unwilling to care about them next age when they do this to/with another kingdom.
I am arguing for my future.
I didnt say they have no say in I asked why you they should do something about it? Since you seem to of the opinion that other people should react.Why do you feel that kingdoms and/or players should be able to do whatever they wish and no one else should be able to say or do anything about it?
All your arguments/opinions are flawed since you lack the necessary insight and history behind the conflicts. No, you cant grasp the situation cause you dont know the whole picture like the rest of us do. Typical tool that lack the ability to argue needs to attack the person behind the argument instead.While these words are true, and this is the second time you've said it, you've failed both times to point out any actual flaw in my opinion.

you should just play in an easy ghetto and not have a worry in the world.
You seem to not be following any of this. "Other people" already did react. They just reacted in a manner to benefit themselves as a short term solution and not to actually resolve the situation for the long term. I am of the opinion they should be working to prevent this happening again in the future, which doesn't seem to be something they are concerned with.
I am a competitive player and I'd prefer to play in a competitive manner. This does seem to be "where it's at" though.
I guess I should be taking lessons from Pew pew. They have the "get away with it" part down.
The problem is that at least this age nobody can do much to punish people because there isn't really anything to take that they'd care about since they obviously don't care about their acres and it is very unlikely that they care about honor or such either. The only thing that the community could basically do is hit into every war PewPew has for the remainder of the age/next age and ruin every single war they have. I'm all for that but thats no immediate punishment so the only thing people can do is make sure that what they tried to do doesn't succeed. Which means forcing Rage to landdrop or put themselves into stasis.
Everybody is acting in their own interests, nobody is doing it because it's morally/ethically right or any crap like that, they do it because they can and they do it because not doing it potentially harms them, thats been the story every time the "community" has acted on anything.
So an outside kingdom will get themselves involved because not doing so might harm them, it's as simple as that.

Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day, Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
It's funny, what the top 3-5 kds want most is GB eachother, not PewPew nor anyone else. The only thing that keeps them from doing it that one of them is gonna loose pretty bad, and one is gonna win. Terror balance.
Do you even play this game ? You should start looking at the real problem rather than pointing fingers and teaching morale.
