ahhh so you posted this because you are upset at E.E. for scouting an warring enemy city that is in their territory, and you want to deteriorate E.E.'s public image by telling the rest of the community that no one can trust them.
I would think that insulting someone on the forums, saying they can't be trusted at all, and declaring your intent to remain in the alliance they are at war with is a much more hostile and aggressive action than sending scouts.
But wait, that doesn't make sense. You said you were staying out of all of this war business and remaining neutral. You just insulted the friends you were trying to avoid attacking in the first place. That doesn't really go with the neutral thing you were talking about.

Since you appear more interested in sarcastic replies than re-establishing your point, I'll make it for you:

Needless to say today i have had 120 scout wave hit 3 of my cities From EE. I have spoken and email to the leadership of EE already once cause of scouting early in this war. I was told it would not happen again. |
Tansiraine is not upset he was scouted, he is upset that he was scouted, then told directly by EE that it wouldn't happen again, then he was scouted again.
Now, there are many plausible situations here, so I wouldn't instantly conclude that EE is untrustworthy, but he does bring up a valid point, even if he quickly became too defensive to clarify it.

In all of these threads, a number of people seem to be forgetting quite an important fact: this is a GAME!
You can be friends with someone, and still nuke their ass back into the stone age. When I play with RL friends, the first rule I work on is that I can't trust a word that they will say concerning their intentions towards me.
Illy is a weird place, where a lot of people seem to take things personally. The only thing I can put that down to is the fact that they can chat to each other in-game and via the forums, and it builds 'relationships' that can blur the game boundaries.

Members in Invictus and Sages, and most likely in all other Consone alliances were adviced to target only those players sending blights, diplos and armies towards us.
I'm sorry, if a member of our confederation chose to scout you, but hey, it really is only scout.
Be asured we don't intend to hit players not aggressive towards us.

Yes, Grego. We sadly only can state, how Consone chooses targets.
Let's hope we never sink to that level...

Bradik who sent latest attack on my city have very strict personal policy in his profile:
3. Generic herbs/hides/minerals
- I'm not too fussy. However, do not camp a cotter right on my doorstep (2 squares or less from me). If you see something that close to one of my cities, just ask permision and I may well grant it (with temporary conditions of course). Why am I picking about generic? Because I don't want any farmers that close to my cities without permission first. I'm funny that way. I feel it's impolite. And I wil respond in an impolite manner.
4. Rare herbs/hides/minerals (the real dicey one)
- Good manners are important. End of Story. Be rude and I will be rude back.
- Any Rare herb/hide/mineral within 3 squares of my city I consider to be my property. Do not touch it. I will bump your harvesting guy. And reinforce it with an army.
- Any Rare within 5 squares of my city I still consider to be my property. Do not touch it. However, I may be willing to temporarily grant harvesting rights given the spoils are split (80/20 - 20% for me). Again, if permission is not sought and I find your harvester/army I will remove it (forcefully or politely depending on my mood of the day)
Just be fair and fight for your supremacy, I would respect you more without your "metagaming".

Oh. Excuse us. One of the leaders of an alliance that declares war on us who lives on top of us shouldn't be touched because of their profile. Silly H? For targeting leaders...
