Hi everyone, I'm fairly new to this and I was hoping for a little help. I've just received the following message: I really don't want to be attacked right away but I have caravans out and about which means I can't move right now. Also, when the game started I don't think I chose where to place my town so it's hardly my fault. Is this a common request, I don't want to step on anyone's toes, especially before I've got to grips with the game. For the record, I don't know what the Crow Alliance is or why this player seems to think I'm a part of them.

Hello , and just stay out of this Kil ^^. I never said you are a Crow member just said that since you are human you can come to agreements with other alliances that have humans like the Crows and that you can join them and move closer to them to have support. I mean no harm to you but i sent you emails before telling you that there are some of my friends that are willing to move next to me and you are blocking their relocation and i got no answer or sign that you read em.So i thought that you are one of those rather unfriendly people that cause problems and i sent you some last messages.You replied tho to the forum and now we can solve this problem.

Alageel, you have no right to tell someone to move, if they are there and pose no military threat then you just have to cope with it. I'm sure they will move when they are ready ( a little bigger and a little more knowledgeable) but that doesn't give you the right to control his actions.

I wonder how Dlord would feel if they knew one of their members were making territory claims over new players like this.

| Terrible, why should GnuTri move for no reason other then to make the Alageel happy? |

glad to hear it's solved, but fyi a new player cannot spawn on a square with sovereignty claimed on it.

Thanks for the feedback guys, it's hard work being a newbie  I'm going to move as I don't want to cause any issues. I can't move just yet due to caravans so has anyone got any advice on finding a good spot to move too?

| "Gnutri i always attempt to talk to them first before moving into such an action." OMG I dont think Dlords would allow you siege him even if he didnt move. |

To enlighten you a bit i had before problems with people that where close to me and i talked with em. I had no answer by them and afterwards they begun hostility.Scouts,spies etc. etc. So have exclusive orders in such occasions to siege the city if i suspect that there might be such a kind of person next to me. Gnutri was there for days and i tried to talk to her BUT since she is NEW to the game as she said she deleted the messages by mistake .That made me believe that she was ignoring me intentionaly. So i was prepared to act likewise. However she posted that thread and i saw it and understood the situation. I talked to her and now things are fine.

| Well I am glad it's fine, but you still can't attack without good cause, you have to assume everyone friendly first |

| Ye i kno what you are trying to say. I mean no harm to noone except if he is inactive or just lurky type. There wouldnt even be any cause for siege if she had replied me earlier but since she did no matter the time, things are fine. I never hurt people just like that. |
