Its just a difference between the mindset of a Top KD and someone who has never played in one. I agree that it can be harsh at times, but its been proven that Facism > Democracy. Look at the ranks if you have time, thats how the top KDs does things so if you don't like it, don't be part of it.

You can think that your political ideals are correct, but we are talking about efficiency and what works here.

I am not refering to Grace but as a general point of view, I would think that how the leadership/council bring their message forward is also very important. I know of this ef-up monarch in one of the top KD i was in being so hot-tempered he just keeps *****ing about every single thing, it just makes you want to bash him up or get back at him. For the player, you don't care if you screw his age. For the monarch, you sow what you reap. The top KD I was in looks pretty lousy now, though still in chart.
