INVADING REGIONS AND THEN PASS PROTECTING THEM

10-10-2003, 17:28
Hello

I represent the concern of the Reunited Realms, Dark Side of the Moon, and some of the nations of Aquabania.

We have had problems with a Region called Sweet Arrow, they aer sending the thugs out of there region into others to annex them.

They are doing this with out even checking with those in the region to see if it is ok to do so. we had this problem in the Realms.

We suggest that the powers be put a stop to it before people get really niffed,

thanks concerned player.

Are they doing what the thread title suggests? Or are they just conducting legal invasions?

As a representative of Sweet Arrow, I'd like to say we do NOT move into regions and password-protect them. We are playing this game legally according to the rules on griefing expressed in this forum. We do not eject members nor install passwords.

Some members of the Reunited Realms, on the other hand, did move into a region, password-protect it, and eject members. I was under the impression this was definitely not allowed. Perhaps they should follow the rules themselves first before policing other regions.

As a well known member inside of Sweet Arrow, I know what goes on, and we have never intentionally, password protected a region, or eject any member of any region.

I would also like to comment on the fact that we rarely annex regions that are active (if ever), and that the majority of regions we annex do not have active players.

So quite frankly Northwall and his fellow region companions are making a fuss over nothing.

i would like to state that i was residing in the region of dark side of the moon; not doing anything. then suddenly nations from the reunited realms showed up and banned me from the region and password protected it. how can they complain about us breaking the rules when they are so blantantly doin it themselves?
i am sad-faced :cry:

As founder of Sweet Arrow, I would like to explain that the only region which is password protected is the one that I established at the beginning. This was orginally going to be a region for some friends of mine and I, and that is why I kept a password on it from the beginning, only for our safety, even when there was less than 5 nations there. Since then, Sweet Arrow has grown into a larger region, but the password still remains on there for the safety.

There was only a password put on a region and that was done by accident, and taken off as soon as we found out. We do not try and create harm, or stress to other regions/nations in this game. And like I said, the ONLY password which is on a region is on OUR region, and I have put that on there since I established the region, before any of this "password" accusations took place. This is just being thrown into a large proportion, and frankly, I don't understand why...like I said, the one password which was put on a region has been taken off.

Instead, our region is being constantly watched, and nations are being followed, almost in a way of stalking. So what if some of our nations want to wander around into other regions, that doesn't necessarily mean we are going to take them over. Unlike Northwall and his group of nations, we don't send 5 nations into a region where Northwall's people are, and become UN delegate. And to the best of my knowledge (without contacting any members of Sweet Arrow before writing this) I do not believe that nations in Sweet Arrow are doing the same to Northwall by moving into regions where they are at, trying to gain UN delegate status first.

This all started out as a missunderstanding with Northwall, and was corrected in what I thought was a proper manner, and now it's getting blown out of proportion again.

We of Northwall only did to keep you from taking over the region of Dark Side of the Moon.

We have gotten several threats from you member nations, some have been ok, others are just plain rude.

We don't invade and passs protect, lets see have seen you guys try to do that with Dark Side of the Moon, Chicago, and you did that to us also.

So you don't invade and take over, did you guys ever thing to ask the nations that are in a region, before you annex, no you don't.

We are not going to bother with you again, we just warn you to stay out of our regions or Reunited Realms, and also Aquabania.

Several of your nations have threaten us, and we have tried to work this out. We thought it was worth mentioning to the UN and the other powers out there that there where regions taking over other regions.

We have tried to work it out wiht you, and nothing yet, your lack of communication at length of this subject has annoyed almost all our nations.

We wish to end this now.......

The realms on did that to protect the region, if you also follow the boards, you came into the Realms, elected a Un delgat, than annexed our region.

We have been playing this game for a while, and we have not been anything but nice to the other players.

We had joined the Un a while ago, then left it for it was not for our region. We were playing when you showed up and took over our region, you never bothered to look if we where active or not, we have been...

You thus lied about how you annex regions, you were ok to help out, but we tried to speak with you and got some understanding, other members of your gang, threaten us.

If you also check the board we nuked, bioweaponed, and used many weapons of masss destruction against you.

We tried to come to an understanding, and got some oks, mostly threats, so we deemed what was needed to get you talking.

You should talk as one voice on your boards, but you are too busy expanding your greater control.....

i am sad-faced :cry:

HEY YOU SAID IT YOURSELF, BRING IT ON IF YOU DARE!!!

or did you forget.

We watched as you possed and readied yourself to take control of that region, please. You are not inncocent.


We might be guilty of doing what you guys did.

You also forgot that we gave the passward to the nations that were left in that realm.

We also left..... unlike those that are saying that we beat them at there own game...

We are willing to talk if you so are not so busy with taking over the world.....

i'd like to politely point out as a member of sweet arrow, that at no time have i ever telegrammed threats or whatever.. can you name the members making threats, and what the threats were, maybe?

also, like boredom beyond belief says, we dont go around password-protecting any regions, or ejecting people.

did i mention i was being polite? yeah. im polite. you all saw it!! i was polite! :)

"Several of your nations have threaten us, and we have tried to work this out. We thought it was worth mentioning to the UN and the other powers out there that there where regions taking over other regions."



Well thank you---it was kind of you to always look out for this game, and the regions/nations in here. Glad to see that some people in this world still care.

Hello Gang:

Round the Clock stated that war was the only way and to bring it on.

We do care, and are willing to work out so type of accord.

We will point out that several of our nations did indicate that you were polite, so was Fisher, and they appologized for the invasion.

Others were a little more than nice. We are not pointing the blame, we do want to work this out....

Several of our nations did get telegrams form you saying sorry, and tried to explain, they also communicated back.

We politey said that you telegram the nations into regions that you plan on annnexing, by the way in the fact book of said nations you clam to have annexed the area......

We are willing to work this out...

You keep saying that you want to work things out. Do you think that reporting everything and kicking several of the nations out of the UN is really working things out? We were going to leave Chicago, and stop the regional invasions, as you so have called them and straighten everything out and just live life peacefully in Sweet Arrow. But now, several of the nations have been barred from the UN now, and are unhappy. Some have even expressed just wanting to let their nation die/quit this game. Which I think it quite sad. Do you think that's a good way of working things out?? I personally don't.

FROM WHAT WE UNDERSTAND, IF YOU GO ABOUT USING SEVERAL NATIONS THAT ARE UN NATIONS FROM THE SAME SOURCE THAT IS AGAINST THE RULES.

SEVERAL OF OUR NATIONS WERE LOOKED AT ALSO, BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE.

WE ARE SORRY FOR YOUR LOSE, BUT WE WERE ACTING WITH IN REALM OF THE GAME.

WE ASKED YOU TO SIMPLE LOOK AT THE REGION AND TALK THE PEOPLE IN THE REGION, DARKSIDE OF THE MOON WAS A FORMER FRIEND AND TRADE PARTNER, WE LEFT WHEN WE WERE DONE. AND WE GAVE THEM THE PASSWORD.

WE NEVER REALLY WANTED TO BE PART OF THE UN, WE OFFICIALLY A WHILE BACK TOLD THEM TO GO GET SCREWED LOOK AT OUR PAST POSTINGS. WE LEFT, WE ARE WILLING TO EXTEND A HAND OF FREINDSHIP, BUT LOOK AT WAY YOU WERE DOING THINGS TO THE RULES OF THE GAME.


WE ARE SORRY AND HOPE THAT WE CAN COME TO AND UNDERSTANDING...

WE ARE SORRY AND ONLY STANDING UP FOR WHAT WAS RIGHT.

WE AGREE WITH THE IDEA THAT GRIEF IS NO GOOD FOR THE GAME, BUT IT WAS POINTED OUT THAT YOUR SWEET ARROW REGION HAD SEVERAL UN NATIONS THAT WERE CONTROLLED BY THE SAME PEOPLE, WHICH IS AGAINST THE RULES.....
17-10-2003, 22:49
look you drama queen, i never threatened you. i basically just made fun of you. big squattin deal! you banned me from a region and then pass protected it and then moved out.
THATS AGAINST THE RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have ruined many people's fun for nothing. our little pretend war was fun but now its over. so who are you gonna bug now? let me know so i can give them a head start.
20-10-2003, 18:54
If you look we don't usuall both with others....
20-10-2003, 19:55
We have talked to the powers of the Realms and have come to an understanding.

We are just an ally, and are willing to discuss total peace terms. We concluded with them, that thay are willing to give there Meson Technology to help with the distruction that they brought to the region of Sweet Arrow.

We hope that the each of the these regions may become greatter than their sums.

We extand our hand of friendship in this matter also...
