Consone/Coalition War: Peace and Reconciliation

and yet you still live :)..but serioulsy war did change profile of average player i think.It is most peaceful players that have left the game.On the plus side we are left with more loyal and competent players then we had before the war.Other good thing about war is that you get to see who acts in what way, and that is always valuable lesson.

I know of more then 10 players from VIC who left game due to war , so i would say around 10% players in VIC left game due to war.Number of inactivs is or rather was greater then 10% but i only included those for who i am certain that they quit because of war.I dont say this in any conection to this thread but only to remind that players do leave game because of wars, big and small players alike.It can clearly be seen by number of abandoned acc, and there are many who did not aband acc officialy so they can not be seen from outside of alliances, some number has left alliance and then quit game.It is normal thing in wars for allinaces that are on loosing side.

Those that say that the Coalition are the sole reason for making people leave are kidding themselves. You overlook the number of people who either left because of sheer boredom due to no action, or who left because their leaders were too stubborn to agree to peace and stretched out the peace negotiations.

I don't understand the relevance of why alliances in Illy should conduct wars based upon whether or not they think people will leave or not? War is part of this sandbox. If you didn't think it was, then you really aren't paying attention to a huge percentage of the game functionality.

The only function I can see in this "people are leaving" theme of posts is one of trying to paint The Coalition as somehow aggressive or "ruining the game". No one is ruining the game. The game is healthy, growing, and more fun than ever. Looks like we're going to get a whole new continent soon. What is ruined about all that?

The desperation to make The Coalition look bad is, in and of itself, hurting the game. If you folks stopped and paid attention to what you were doing, you'd realize that if you post "The sky is falling" enough times, somebody is going to believe it and people who don't know better reading this forum might think the game is actually being hurt. I can't imagine that that is your intention, but perhaps you should think about it a little prior to posting. Try prioritizing the interests of the game you love over the bile you feel towards certain alliances.

Whenever I see people posting about "everyone leaving", I see people trying to hurt the game.
