I started this post because bullying is wrong, and just because you can call in bigger friends does not give you the right to FORCE others to your will.  There is a justice that cannot be swayed with sweet talk and flowers

If you have a problem with a policy of an alliance, take it up with their leadership. Or even take it up with your leadership to discuss with their leadership. Communication is the key.

Spot on.  (^_^)

You should ask Calcr to tell you about what was going on before they were part of the crowiltion.

I share my wood freely, although of course it is not as good as Fluffy's.  Ask any newb.

Edited to clarify:  I mean, ask any newb whether I share my wood.  Not about the quality of Fluffy's wood.  I mean, some of them might know, but others might not.  Not just anyone gets to sample Fluffy's wood.

Oh, wait ...

Embarrassed

CE joined consone? Big smile

I remember a school girl having to write a composition on 'post office' for an examination. But she had studied to write about 'cow' only. So she wrote - "Post office is not like cow. Post office doesn't eat grass. Post office doesn't give us milk... " 

That said, I don't agree with the comments on Crow. I don't know the reason behind that post either.

was not necessarily singling crows out - and you comment about our being in Consone- yet - i believe it was formed as a direct result of the ever growing number alliances falling  under the crow umbrella  and other "super alliances" I could be wrong about that - but i don't think so - And I was not the one tht singled crows out at all- I commented on a previous comment that did single crows out -though in a more popular light to you i am sure - lol - I kind of like the cold war state it seems to be in - makes it interesting Wink

Rill, you need to get off the cross, someone can use the wood... it is not about crows!   There are other larges alliances that write policies their members don't follows... and they are eating up smaller alliance's claims to rare resources.  I am  getting tired of these bullies!

Interesting comment coming from a player in a Consone alliance.  Last I heard, Consone is substantially larger than Crow.  And unlike Crow, which grew rather organically for the most part as players from established Crow alliances began their own alliances and chose to affiliate, Consone is a group of alliances that began independently and decided to announce a confederated group in order to ... apparently establish that they are a group to be reckoned with.

I have nothing against Consone and respect many fine players in Consone.  I also have nothing against the idea of a group of alliances that "have each others' backs," whether it's Harmless? and DLords, the Crow alliances, Consone, whatever.  I personally think having a large group of friendly players makes that game more fun.

But when one of your members singles out Crows for being a large group of confederated alliances I just have to well ...

LOL
