This topic is now closed due to the over-inflammatory nature of the post and all the mudslinging.  I'm fine with disputes on the forums, just keep down the salt and the toxicity.

The problem with all these real-life analogies is that they way overstate the case. Hucbold is using a very short dictionary definition without context, taking a page out of AJ's playbook. Underlying these definitions are scenarios that are truly tragic and cause real pain, which for some reason the definitions fail to capture. The only kind of hurt we Illy warmongers cause is butthurt, and that is only limited to this game and your own emotional attitude to the things that happen in-game.

Ah, thought your response was in reference to "what do you consider yourself?" question in CK's post. Embarrassed

Have you actually talked to 'these people'? Because I'm getting an 'everybody knows' or 'of course this is true' vibe in this thread.

Also, woop! Attention rocks! You're paying attention to me right now by reading this! WOOHOO!
Some of you might even confirm you gave me that attention by replying to this in order to then gather attention for yourself! *I like floppy eared bunnies*

When a person lacks human attention, he is looking for it everywhere. Loneliness is the most common feature of players in this game. This is a community, you can not, you military-oriented, take it for yourself. Greed, anger and anger have never been part of any community. They shall not survived here either.
Try, at least a week, to play against the game, not against the player.
Give peace a chance

Thank You for attention Smile

The forums has only ever been a useful tool for digging your own grave. No matter how many times it happens, people keep doing it.
