Hey! Wait a minute!

That wild false rumor about Kumo pressing wild flowers and wearing Wonder Woman underwear was started by me.

There are a couple of good examples in this thread in fact.  E.g.

Someone says to Tamaeon

"H? want to siege HFW out of the game, here's some private diplomatic convos from their forum that I'm copying to everyone I can think of, which almost say that but actually don't."

and instead of thinking "Hold on, H? have always said that sieging people out is bad and went out of their way in the Consone War not to do that, this smells like BS"

Tamaeon simply (and incorrectly) reads between the lines and says "Wow, those evil #$%&*$%&*#$'s we should go to war to protect Illy"

Now some folk might think that this is just because Tamaeon is a little simple in the head, but I prefer to give him the benefit of the doubt (this time) and contend that he's merely been brain washed to think we're bad and we do bad things...

The usual:

We're evil
We lie, spin, cheat, steal
We condone all kinds of nefarious behavior
We're constantly plotting against other alliances
Kumo likes to press wild flowers and wear ladies underwear
etc.

just to be clear, are you asking for examples or questioning whether or not such comments were made? i think Rill would confirm that she has made such comments, though i'm sure she and H? could go on *cough* longer than Tamaeon and i have about how warranted they were.
OK, I'll take it that their might be comments around and that certainly explains the bickering. I'll definitly NOT ask for examples or verifications, as that would open just another can of worms.

After three big wars and a long time being number 1 on the server, I guess most "people" don't need anyone to dictate their point of view regarding H?. They either like it, don't like it, or ignore it. I've gone through all three of those stages in recent time LOL

As honestly I bear zero ill will towards H?, despite being on opposite sides during the war, greatly admire much of what you have done in all the years of Illy,  and yet also am one of those closest to Rill,  her "long term defamation and slander campaign" must not have been very effective . . . I would have thought I should have been brainwashed long ago . . . 

I will freely admit I do not understand the H?/Rill dynamic , nor likely ever will . . .

I definitly made my own pictures about H? (ranging from honourable to scheming) and learned to differ public appearance and IGM answers Wink
