Ok, lets break the dude's file open.
You certainly never learned anything from it. So we might as well, right?
It's a long story. So i will try keep it short.
Did he and I have a past at that time, we sure did? And we were both struggling with it. (My alt was in his alliance).
The_Dude never mentioned anyone about the fact that Warrior Bunny (Invictus) came to his aid when he was in trouble.
The_Dude joined other alliances, fine, good on him. That alliance chose to war on H?
Fine, no problem with me either.
That war was cause of it's leader who lied to his people. Shoot! Most of the community felt bad for him.
His bad ex-leader decided to wage a war on The_Dude, but first went for an invictus member as this person had agrood him enough, called Kaboom. The community came together, and yes, The knights who say Ni, got repelled.
What truelly was a terrible thing to happen, was that he then decided to go after T_D again. (oh there go the sad feelings for t_d up a notch)
T_D was even right that the members in the new to be formed TMM (which i jokingly called, the marshmallow man) were in fact just the one old remaining member of the Knights who say Ni, going after him with a vengeance. And he did.
TMM in the meantime also insisted on all malmothians to join them, or get killed.
H? had members who were befriend, or claimed to be so, with other players that were hunted by TMM. In forum posts they will explain that H? members have a large autonomy with regards to which wars they do, and do not involve themselves in. (A lot more alliances joined in, and history does not tell u that Invictus, with me as its leader, had offered T_D to take him on in our alliance and thus shelter him. Sure, it would take some work, but the offer was there). Eventually a lot of alliances helped bring TMM down, T_D and me cleaned up the rest. And in this case, T_D and I can still agree, it was necessary.
Now.... going back to the question of this forum post.
When is breaking a siege an aggressive action or not, to suddenly make it more sense?
I know no one will like me for asking this question, just like Hath MUST HAVE BEEN wrong to dare ask it... but next time i go to war. I would like it to be it for a valid reason. Not just some lie.
And if go to war alongside someone next time... then i also would like to be certain that their reasons are truethfull.
People might have a lot of thoughts about these hundreds of people that were part of Consone, but no one really ever wondered why not even ONE of these members EVER spoke up against the so-called aggressiveness of their leaders, unlike the fact that their were h?/coalition members, who at the very least, doubted the reasons for this war.
Again, this post isn't about the last war. But I, and a lot of other people, would surely like to know when, and when not, they are expected to be causing grieve to some other alliance if they are ever to undertake such an action again in the future.
