Best thing to do is to send a petition to the GM's. Just click on the "?" below the face icon for your character at the top of your screen. Choose the appropriate subject and make you complaint. They were only just looking at a similar problem yesterday so I expect they will do it pretty quickly . They will send you mail to confirm ;) Good Luck with alliance btw

You have 778 population, why not join an active alliance? The alliance that you want to found is already here in illy, just under different leadership and a different name. ------------- Patience is a virtue, resource giving is a sin |

Also, you sure that you have enough gold? At your size it's highly likely you don't. |

| i have plenty enough gold, it doesnt let you enter anything if you dont, tells you off for being poor |

There's been more players, and more gold given out, so in reality there's more gold around the world. The devs need to increase the price to founding new alliances again ------------- Patience is a virtue, resource giving is a sin |

| why do you say that? I had to increase my food production massively and set my tax rate to 100% for a week to get the money together |

Sean, I think I'll have to agree with Kurfist here, it will serve you much better to join an active alliance at this point :) ------------- Selissa Proud member of Curse of the Wolves I'm an angel, honest! The horns are just there to keep the halo straight! |

I somehow doubt that having your taxes at 100% for a week gets you 500k gold. i get about 300kish per week at my second city with 100% taxes ------------- Patience is a virtue, resource giving is a sin |

I beg to differ. Everyones telling me I'm doing it wrong, but not giving any advice

As a new player, you should have your taxes at 0%, or around there.
At your size I would recommend 15% or lower.

Well good luck in your alliance, I don't approve of someone so little as you founding an alliance, but have at it.

I agree with you Sean. They should be encouraging you to have fun and set up your alliance BUT you have to take into account that players like Nokigon. Kurfist/Clavius Vile and Selissa the forum spam queen ( ) are saying the opposite. Nokigon for example is a member of Cave of Knowledge. That alliance is based not to far from your position. Reality is that for some reason they are being negative and may well be hostile and you should take that into account before you make your decision. What might be helpful now if other bigger alliance leaders posted messages of support for you here in the forum Good luck

Me and some friends founded our alliance extremely early in the game. Vets had been generously sending carepackages (including gold) to us and we wanted to be physically near eachother so we founded our alliance and relocated.
It's going very well and we're self sufficient now and growing, so it CAN be done, but we had the advantage of being more than a few players who actually knew eachother from other games, real life, etc. when we founded Triality.
I don't think I would dare form an alliance as a new player if I only had strangers to invite.
Just my 2 cents but if you feel like it, go ahead and I wish you good luck.

Just want to say that Havoc is a new alliance set up by Johnny112. We were all strangers . Now we get on pretty well and are friends. So it can be done with goodwill from the community. We wish you well Seanblah12 |

Whatever happened to you leaving? You made a topic about that, I guess it was just a bid for attention. You also refrence selissa as a form spam queen, while she is a queen, you have been the one spamming the forums with your "Goodbye" topics and trolling on pretty much every active thread. ------------- Patience is a virtue, resource giving is a sin |

Just show that he has the IQ of a doorknob ;) Especially since he calls me the spam queen, while he have more posts per day than I do. Now for something more important: Where's my crown?

with 500 pop and 100% tax you get 2000/hr gold. 2000*24*7 = 336,000 sell a 100 cows and you are easily at 500K. This game is only an year and a half old. In another year, anyone could be as big as anyone else in the game. If a new player wants to start his own alliance, he should. sean, you could open an in game petition. Hopefully the problem will be addressed soon.

Stupid question I know, but you do have the necessary research and consulate building level don't you? I think we've fully determined you have the gold now. ------------- Doesn't look good... doesn't look bad either! "Manananananananananan, so long Sir, and thanks for all the fish." ~ St.Jude |

| Yeah I have the research lol, if you dont have all the requirements it tells you that you cant do it, it was letting me enter the name and stuff but not doing anything, seems to have sorted itself out in the wash though |
