dont understand why he would come here as an alias, unless its because he feels he can say whatever he likes without perpetrating his IGN.

btw, gameplayer would love Diablito's policy :)

Ok hold on, I would agree there is a mystique about the heroism of H? during the White war, however what alliance wouldnt boast about winning against one of the largest alliances on the server?-Furthermore Diablito was a jerk, a poor diplomat and a liar. His alliance supported the idea of farming new players and supported tactics that included completely fabricated reasons to attack ppl at peace. The game is different with him and his alliance dead- but in positive way. The fact that you call this a myth is confusing since the people that were around can attest to the facts of what happened and the characters that you speak about.

| What tripe! Were we not victorious? Did we not support Illy's culture of newbie protection for years? Who has supported this culture of new player protection more than H? Are we not supporting it even now by removing the biggest bullies? Go get some grounding in reality. Your attempts at re-writing history are pathetic at best. You are part of a group that is trying to change this strong Illy culture and the fact that you are failing is the best possible outcome for continuing this wonderful Illy world we all enjoy.

You continually remind people that Illy is "just a game." This is no reason to suggest players not become emotionally charged and invested in it. In fact, the vigor with which people will debate, wage war, and defend their reputation is in my mind one an indicator of Illyriad's success as an MMO. So long as people limit their targeted emotions to an account's in-game character, and do not extend it to the person behind the keyboard, they have every right to display passion, anger, sadness, jealousy, honor, rage, vengance, etc; some might even find it one of the most enjoyable parts of the game.

Diablito's behavior would have violated the current ToS in many aspects.

H/White war was on a similar magnitude to this one, troop numbers were smaller naturally due to evolution but participation numbers were relative to now. Despite the apparent direction we are headed I must say it has been interesting, neither side has convinced anyone who is "right" nor has the "real" reason for war been defined, I am however much better understanding of Coal's opinion and also convinced there is more than one angle of origin. It matters little now, military might and nous will decide the outcome just as it always were to be. I still anxiously await the faction release regardless of the result, I see them as the Devs little bundle of joy and one that we may all need to work together at to control them.
