This. Clearly the fact that this is an issue beyond explaining this to ratboy makes this look like a deliberate provocation. While attacking insignificantly small players is clearly not the best course of action(besides being the most inefficient use of 2k cavalry I can easily think of), I wouldn't fault WE at all for starting on military options.

Isn't it common courtesy to assume if a city is next to high sov, as im assuming is what it was, its as good as theirs?

Oh btw...seems Illy has lost a great guy in sel despite his faults, his only guilt was being over passionate about the world of ILLY.......YES AA....and all because of " only a 13 food square "

As to who owns the spot.....first come, first served...This should have been worked out peacefully between the two players who are close to the spot. Knock it off and be good. And maybe I want the spot....13 farmspots....gesssuz christ!
0nly 13 ? it warranted ratboy to not only settle in amongst us, capping a high lvl 20 square right next door to him...but it seems he wasn't content with just that, he felt the need to move into one of our members territory and blatantly steal it from under his nose.
I ask you a fair question.....would you sit back and accept that, if it was done to your town?
WE had no qualms about Res moving in amongst us despite the tensions between us, but now they take a step too far, WE members hold respect for ALL players when they play fair and would NEVER contemplate infringing upon other peoples territories to that degree.
As for you spew about talking it out...shame RES didn't talk to us first about their intentions instead of bulldozing their way in first.

Amroth, you do realise that by telling WE that they are not allowed to do something, its more likely that they will do it. If they think you're "dictating" to them it's going to be pretty obvious they'l do it simply to spite you.

This entire episode has been idiotic from the beginning. The sovereign spot is a 13 food spot so this is what the excitement is about. Ratboy claimed the spot. As I see it. it is between the two cities. Gruntfuddock had ample opportunity to claim the spot. he has more then enough population there. If he delayed and the spot was claimed, he can blame none but himself. As to the attacks made by Selwyn on a pop 200 player in Res. I find this a most despicable action, and Selwyn has been informed that any further attacks from him to tiny players will most assuredly see his cites removed from Illy. As to Shadow1....If Selwyn is admitted back into WE, after RMY has kicked him and disavowed his actions...Eternal Champions will view this as a backing of his nefarious activities and we will be forced to take action against said player and any who support him. As to the affair in general...It is disappointing that we have received these reports from leadership and representatives from both guilds. These messages charge each various leader with personal slanders against the other. With name calling and insults offered over the global chat and in personal correspondence to other players. This seems to me a sad indication of the mentality at work here. I would remind the respective leaders that they represent their alliances and as leaders are expected to behave in a respectful and responsible manner. Ridicules when 8yr old kids on a soccer field can be more mature then the adults I play a game with. Lastly...I have informed Selwyn that any further attacks to small players will see his cities razed from illy. Now get this...anyone found to be attacking small players who have not directly attacked, offered belligerence or in some way acted to ingurey of the larger player will have all their cities razed from Illy by the Eternal Champions. Yep that's right. This is what we do.
We champion the meek and the unmartialed. So play nice and get your acts together....Leave the smaller players in peace when ya wanna sword rattle...otherwise Eternal Champions will come and collect whatever you may have and distribute it as we see fit. Consider yourselves warned. This is the only talk any will receive from me on this issue. Any further actions directed at small players will bring a swift and total response from Eternal Champions.
As to who owns the spot.....first come, first served...This should have been worked out peacefully between the two players who are close to the spot. Knock it off and be good. And maybe I want the spot....13 farmspots....gesssuz christ!

Whether it's right or wrong, sad indeed.
Well I hope both parties can work it out somewhat peacefully, if not, best of luck.
