With more upkeep and diplomatic score then I hoped for before the exodus. ;)

Excuse my late addition to this thread, but I have been away from the forums for awhile...
I'm not sure about the 10 square boundary for myself, but I do know I wouldn't be very happy with a city that popped up within 5 of mine. I've seen the 5 square zone applied in other games, so it's not an outrageous concept, and yes, I think it is a common courtesy to contact potential neighbors before a move, as well as being plain common sense. But nothing says you are under any obligation to bow to the wishes of an established player city, or to even take notice of a player's or alliance's territorial claims. They have set a policy and made it known. None of us outside of H? has to agree with or follow that policy. They've stated what the possible consequences of ignoring it are. That's good enough for me. I'm doubting also whether an H? member would just attack city that popped up near them without messaging them first, so whether a player reads the forums or not shouldn't be a big issue.

H? has recently found itself increasingly involved in diplomatic discussions around city proximity.
While it seems as though most players are courteous enough to contact prospective new neighbors before they move or settle in their vicinity, we've also had to deal with folks who just don't think or even deliberately try to cause a problem.
To avoid future disappointment players who wish to move their cities or settle within 10 squares of an existing Harmless? city are advised to contact the player concerned and an H? diplomat/director before the move to discuss it and reach an agreement.
Thanks for your attention.

To emphasise his sincerity KillerPoodle was considering getting a well respected californian politician to add some gravitas to his announcement by politely and courteously adding "I was going to add that you are safe in my hands but then again... but decided that overkill might not be the best policy ...this time.

I don't see a problem with this, I mean I plan on claiming some land up in ursor for my alliance, even though there's no one there sans comrade general and we are respecting his space it wouldn't be an issue. I'm sure everyone here can respect H?'s space.

Jude,
Honestly, do you really think H? would just set up a seige without at least giving warning? I've never seen them do that or heard of an incident like that...

They might if the other party declared war on them first. Perhaps they'd think the war declaration would be sufficient warning?
