Than why the fuss about loosing lot less in the first place ?
This entire situation is hypocritical. Gold is a resource competed for, just like land. What is the difference between someone robbing your provs and your core randoming for land ? If anything top kd's are notorious for "randoming" into hostiles to further lower chances of retals.
It is not inherently wrong to steal from top kd's, just like its not wrong for you to punish ppl for doing so. What is wrong is this stupid campaign going on currently to defame stealing as something wrong. Top kd's are pushing for agenda to shut down aspect of play that does not suit their own selfish interests and dont sit well with their egos.
Whats next step in this glorious crusade ? "Retal us and get razed" campaign ?
Ppl talking about quitting are right, you are organizing to deny them right to play the game, its natural they feel that way.
You are all acting like a bunch of asses, misplaced righteousness in this thread is reaching nausea levels.
