Sorry if this has been already answered (or posted in the wrong place) but can someone explain why there is a 6 hour wait to join another alliance after you have left one? To me I think it would be better without it. Please let me know your thoughts.

In war there are rules, in politics however, there are no rules.

If you cannot wait 6 hours, Illy might be the wrong game for you :)

I have been playing this game for over 3 years now (I started in my previous account Sheogorath). I have the patience it is just somethings I think have no purpose, such as the wait

I don't have an issue with the 6 hr wait . That seems to be enough time to do what ever it is you have to do.....[maybe].

You have a point, but (correct me if im wrong) there used to be no wait and there was no problem.

In other games I've played, the delay was to prevent people from alliance-hopping from PvP match to PvP match in the same night. Otherwise the losers from the first round of the tournament bracket would join winning teams to fight in the second bracket, and so forth.

Perhaps the 6 hour wait in Illyriad is to prevent some similar loophole regarding tournaments or alliance membership.

It's to minimize shenanigans around taking advantage of naps to avoid attacks.

To my knowledge there has always been a 6 hour wait. I could be wrong but I seem to remember it way back in the day before they even redid the map to set up terrian, and most everyone ended up with all new terrain surrounding the castles. (wow, that was fun - not)
