Time to disorder!

eh... but why must you seek to go after only those who are smaller than you? how are you "spicing things up" when what I believe you are after is war? They can't protect themselves very well, obviously, but they also can't engage in a war with you.

I still think you are a PvP player who would love a game where when you start off, within a good hour or so, you are already building an army.

i think you are mistaking something about this game. To me, it seems that you are bored. This game is a slower pace and takes actual thought and work at it. You need to build something from practically nothing.

I never agreed with the idea of making you an "example", but I definitely didn't agree with your type of attack. Had it been thieves, I would have just scoffed and said whatever. I've personally been thieved and although it slowed my progress a bit, it didn't still me for days as you did intentionally to a player multiple days away and was a new player.

To any new player, losing that kind of time is a big problem.

I'm sorry that you don't like the way that the majority of the players have decided to play this game, but when I talk to people in GC, I get the distinct impression of a vibrant myriad of people who consider this game to be a fascination because of the in depth quality and that it strays away from the usual, start and kill now type of games.

If you really want a war that badly (and I don't know where you've been, but I've only been on for a month and I have seen wars happening all over the place), then go after players around your strength. Now that you have an alliance, go after another alliance. You'll get your war.

It is sad though, that you completely disregard the diplomacy side of the game and favor the pure war side of the game.

If you are really that bored, the number of games available to you for free, which provide what you are looking for, is immense. Why stay on a game, you obviously don't seem to particularly enjoy much (since you are bored) when you could be enjoying your time playing a game that is more your type?

This is the one thing that I am not understanding. Is it just your need to rebel, or is it something that I just haven't figured out yet? Illy isn't for everyone. I have a number of friends I know that wouldn't actually enjoy this game. They need the fast pace and a fierce, one on one, “Die you Die!”.

I love Illy. I love the complexity and the notion that it is going to become even more in depth as time goes on. I quite enjoy the diplomacy side of the game and considering that it takes so long to be able to support yourself before you can even think to build an army, I truly believe that the creators had purposefully placed stress on the diplomacy side of the game.

War is just too easy to start. That's why it's an easy, quick, instant satisfaction for those other games. But Diplomacy? That's a hard one. It's a challenge. It's a game in itself. It's something that I believe you need in a game like Illy.

So I'll say it again: If you just want pure chaos, play a different game. If you really want what you say you want, then do so in a manner that actually achieves what you want. You want a war, I'm sure you can get that. But the random attacks? It really wouldn't mind if you weren't aiming at new players who are much smaller than you, since that goes against what you are saying. If you want a war with the “Big Players”, then attack them. It is lowly, pitiful, cowardly, and inelegant to go after the new players just to get the attention of the vets. That just makes you seem like a child and you lose the respect of the other players.

Sorry it's so long.. but these are my thoughts and I am just trying to understand some things.

Gud luck with you're alliance, however sadly; I don't think many will join because they don't want to see there towns shredded to pieces.

He hasn't claimed to be attacking smaller players. You are trying to twist his words. so that you can set him up to be attacked. You are low Fluffy and so is anyone who defends you

Does anyone really need a reason beyond the fact that he's obviously a troll, he does in fact attack smaller players and his profile clearly states: " Binkies are not affraid to die"?
