Things in BL are different but I doubt they'll be very different as the cities settle and alliances grow up. This game attracts certain types and that's just the way it is.
I will say, however, that BL does have a freer feel to it. I suppose it could be compared to the land rush of the mid nineteenth century in the mid west of America, only it's a simulation. Eventually the law showed up, it just took a generation.

I don't think that the prevailing political dynamic in BL will be decided by grand statements of intention here on the forum. I reckon it'll be decided through how the various BL alliances conduct themselves in relation to each other and in relation to Elgean alliances on a continuing basis. Whether that entails any difference to how Elgea does it business remains to be seen.
Saying that, I do agree in principle - BL should offer an alternative political dynamic to Elgea. I'm not sure I quite agree with your conclusion that alliances should have their freedom of action restricted on account of that alternative dynamic, but there's no doubt in my mind that a different approach to things in BL would be a good move.

BL should be a place where players can do as they wish without all the "police" of elgea meddling in matters that don't concern them just because it "may harm the community". If people want to go to war let them, don't deprive them of having fun just because you dont see illyriad as a military game. Illy is a sandbox, let people play how they want. BL gives people a chance to do that, dont take it away from them.

I've been in BL with my two accounts since shortly after it opened. I haven't found it any different from Elgea, at least so far. Then again, I don't get involved much in arguments or politics, either here or in real life. It will be what it will be, and since it's mostly new players moving to BL they have already been indoctrinated by the GC Thought Police.

I thought I would open up this thread to encourage people to express their feelings about BL. My opinion is if you want to come live in BL you are more than welcome but you should leave your Elgean attitudes and beliefs in Elgea. If you do not like conflict and provocation, do not move to BL. BL should be like a new wonderful world where people can play without the meddling of people who have nothing to do with conflicts. In other words, if you are not the person, or persons, involved in a certain situation you should stay out of the issue unless invited in. Leave the meddling and advice for Elgea and let BL be a place of fun and discovery.
