This suddenly seems to be a foreign notion in Illy.  Personally I have found it works incredibly well if you share guard duties, share the items and avoid conflict.  Silverlake is correct of course, but  it is not unexpected that all of a sudden "might makes right" and sov and other such inhibitors of socially unsanctioned behaviour have totally disappeared in the face of trade v2.  I was hoping they wouldn't, but I am a realist.  Some people just have to have it all, and if they are big enough they will take it.  However, there are pockets of resistance to this mentality, and in time it will be interesting to see who does in fact end up with the larger "share" of items.  It's hard to produce when you're getting bumped 50% of the time by irate players.  When you share that just doesn't happen.  We live in interesting times.

Maybe i will join crow alliance when that it the only alliance to join, but i doubt it - There are too  many of them as it is - and No - I don't have to respect an alliance that thinks that they need to have so many affiliated alliances under their umbrella  and push others around-
Nothing against any one crow - just that ridiculous mindset that more means better - I often wonder how many of them would actually stand alone- or have the attitude they do if they did not have a murder of crows backing them?? - I give WAY more respect to the smaller alliances tht stand their ground and the players that seek these smaller alliances. Like i said - nothing against any crow - just see them as inhibiting play of  a good game with their interference in to disputes that don't concern them. We don't need crows acting like a "united nations" of Illy -and they  should back off and let other alliances handle their own disputes unless they are directly affected by it

"Inactives send harvesters?"
