Doesn't sound like Harmless? wants to police the server.

Still got the perception that they are.

The server shouldnt be policed.Harmless? asked the community if it was alright to do what they are doing,they had the courtesy and foresight to ask.Plus,they seem like they have no intention of policing the server in the first place

with my allaince a siege is a war offense. thieving would result in a heightened alert and if continued a war. stealing members ehh screw that its petty if they move to another allaince it shows there loyalty.
whats happened to the world? if intelegent life came to earth is RL would they consider us intelligent or not? probably not!!!!

I have never got the impression that Harmless wants to police the server. I have not and will not vote in this. I feel that as the leader of my alliance, its my call when we go to war - not the servers' decision. No one dragged me into the TMM war.. I made that decision based on the info in the forums. But I doubt any alliance would have looked at us negatively if we HADN'T joined in that. 

I have yet to commit our armies without talking with my allies though. Every decision or non-decision I make could have some effect on my alliance.. it could be how the "world" perceives us or how we are treated by friends. Goonies will always stand for its beliefs and will always stand by its allies in all just issues. 

So, the "server" shouldnt police.. people should think for themselves. If they are in an alliance that causes issues and they dont want to be in that type of alliance, time to find a new alliance. If they like where they are, they should stand by their alliance in all issues.

Snow never stopped me before. Ice, on the other hand...

Last Monday I biked to campus while it was snowing.  At one downhill stretch I found myself hydroplaning on slush while traffic passed me about 2 feet away.  For 60 feet the front tire drifted side-to-side, and when I reached the bridge at the bottom I made a beeline for the concrete-divided sidewalk.

Factor in the rust building up on my chain, and I think it's time to pack in for the winter. Cry

If they said they don't want to, why would it look like they want to?

I honestly can't see any alliance successfully policing the server to be honest. All it would take is that alliance to say "You guys can't go to war" before they had a war on their hands themselves. If anything, policing the server will likely only create more wars.

Wars have different goals, too.

Sometimes it's just one trouble-maker and you just want to siege a town of his and make an example that you do not steal/attack / raid / kill caravans, etc.  But you dont harm other alliance members, just punish the offender.

But when sieges are involved, I think instant-and-all-out war to the death is justified.  Sieging is like shooting someone with a gun.  You are going for the kill.  You can't just say... 'my bad!'
