No worries.

And I see you point Ander - but tell me - if you were being chased around the world by H? or any other alliance and did not want their attention would you choose to settle down right next to them?

I have to repeat myself. The difference in size between H? and ICON in size of cities and armies is so great that it makes a complete nonsense of you arguement. In any event the only benefit from settling on an island is to reduce the possibility of being sieged.

I have noticed that you are fond of using the words *logic" and " fallacy" in your posts and threads. Try using more of the former and less of the latter. By continuing your current line of argument you really are insulting peoples intelligence. I am beginning to think you are repeating this nonsense deliberately.

It is pointless reasoning with you Celeb when you just keep returning to the same point without thinking through anything I say.

I guess now you force me to repeat myself: Why does it matter what size ICON is? Before they decided to move to the islands they had already made their hostile opinions of H? abundantly clear (in much the same way that you do) - tell me: If these guys did not want to get hurt by H? then why did they chose to settle right next to us? The location they picked was purely with the intention of antagonising us - and now it bugs you that we responded swiftly and decisively?

And yeh I don't think I've ever used the word 'fallacy' on here before now - but I guess we all already know that making stuff up doesn't bother you.

edit: @Harry: Tbh just because people are disagreeing doesn't mean it is necessarily bitter-sea material - indeed now the bitter sea is gone does not mean we are supposed to not ever dispute. It just means we have to hold these discussions in a more reasoned and less 'troll-like' way.

size of the infection is not something to consider when eradicating plague.
the logic is, they are unwanted on that island.
your point is that they are to small, but they bragged quite a bit in the past, i dont know if they are worth the courthouse like defence you are giving to them.
anyway, there are no jurors to impress here celeb.
the one way to end this good for icon would be to start sitting on the negotiation table and bargain a cease fire untill they moved to better location.( and i hope it happens).
since all the "devious strategy" and "no diplomacy " hard-line has failed, negotiating an exodus is all what they have left.

Correction Kilotov:  There has been "diplomacy" with such as messages to H? directors such as "You are a *rick", "sucka..."  and so forth.

That is not correct, there are multiple options that can be pursued that all take time and involve the use of prestige.

However, right now, I am not confident I want to stick around in Illy and continue being the champion of the people, so H? can have Killerpoodle and/or Honoredmule negotiate peace in this thread, or not, and show the community that there is more here than meets the eye. (*whispers* Transformers more than meets the eye)

anjire, that is obviously not a diplomatic message.
mockery has no place in this tread and shall not be discussed.
the fact i compared icon to a plague may have been cause of their modus operandi.
that includes harassing, mockery, thievery, verbal assault, attack against third parties as retaliation, impersonating the champion of the people, impersonating of the messiah, foul play, disguise as white hats, blatant lies  and such.
now, let this tread not degenerate whit non-constructive post like that one, since we are all well aware of the colours of those.

I will be surprised if H? engages in any public negotiations.  That would be out of character for H?.
