Consone/Coalition War: Peace and Reconciliation

 

Illyriad, by virtue of being Sandbox cannot be a game of "perpetual"war.

Wrong.

We all saw the way in which the game suffered during The Consone War. Some of us have lost friends who quit because of it including players had contributed a lot to the game.

I don't think the game as a whole suffered at all. Many eyes were opened, many delusions popped (painfully in some cases) but overall this kind of content merely serves to add to the sum of the game.  I can personally enumerate many who quit due to lack of such content - the fact that they went quietly (in most cases) rather than screaming their bitterness from the rooftops makes their loss no less important.

This is bound to create a sense of ill feeling between the main protagonists involved in The Consone War and this sense of ill feeling needs to be dealt with.

Another badly supported assumption. A few posts in a forum do not define the 'feelings' of over 1000 players.

What is needed now is magnamity on the part of the victors not idle boasts and taunts.

"magnanimity".  I think if it were possible for you look objectively you would see that it's approximately six of one and half a dozen of the other. Also, I notice you mention nothing about what those who surrendered ought to do - you push it all onto the victors (against whom you have already spouted many pages of rhetoric).

In short - your little missive obviously biased and full of unsupported statements-as-fact which are incorrect. It is thus completely unsuitable as a starting point for any kind of reconciliation even if we were to agree that one were required. It's simply another thread pushing a personal agenda from a biased viewpoint.
