so by extension, every H? member with an alt in T? needs to leave H? as well, or is this one of those "do as i say, not as i do" kinda things?
and 250 million??? guys you have been playing to long, us Eagles give most of our stuff to newbs in our alliances, so it makes it a touch hard to come up with that sort of coin!
But i do beleive Chosen Eagles are intent on Passive Resistance!
There's worse blokes than me!!

Dammit H?, why is it that whenever I start agreeing with you do some ridiculous unnecessary mustache twirling?  Any reasonable and fairly unbiased person will realize you're in the right here, why do you care if they tell the world they've been aiding your enemies?  Trying to punish them for it just makes it look like you have something to hide.  

As I said though, Harmless? is basically justified in my view.  Obviously they can't just let people send supplies to their enemies unchecked, and since they caught CE(By the way, seriously guys?  It's almost impossible to get caught here, unless you do something stupid like send stuff directly from your cities to one under blockade or talk about it in chat.) they clearly need to take action to stop it.  this fine is a bit steep, but not all that terrible for a systematic breech of neutrality.  And honestly, you might have tried to negotiate it down.  I'd bet H? isn't so eager for new enemies they would push too hard.  Worth a try anyway.  

Also, why would you need anyone to inform you that sending weapons and supplies to combatants is a breech of neutrality?  It's pretty obvious.  I could see trade being justified, if you were trading with both sides, but you're by your own admission not.  As far as the player only having been it CE "a fortnight", where I come from that's two weeks.  It takes two weeks to tell a new player you're neutral?  Really?

I think Angrim gave a good piece of advice yesterday. He suggested thsoe who didnt want to get in this war due to the 'but you're supplying ennemies' argument should trade from hubs only. 

A bit ackward if you have no trader but I heard the price of wine was down due to the war so maybe not such a bad timing to start it

I'd be surprised if a blockade can see the colour of a van (blue, green, yellow, red), let alone the nature of its mission.

I don't understand how supplying someone is an act of war? It's done all the time in real life wars. Example, the U.S. was supplying Germany before and while we were fighting them in WWII...

Quick Question: Can a blockade differentiate between an incoming van due to a trade and a van that's been sent to provide resources?

I'm confused... is CE not a wing of the EE-empire? And as such one of their closest allies?

As I recall KP, all you caught was a shipment of weapons I bought, so how exactly was that helping me prestige build?

So that's one. As for the 'several' others - no specifics? noting new there then...

I get the logic KP. But still seems a little extreme. But that's my opinion.
