this thread tickles me every time i see it, after months of the "grand" co-alition failing to dismantle ZT your latest attempt to demoralise ZT is to insinuate that the reason this world is apparently diminishing (your worlds not mine) and becoming boring for some players is because of ZT attacking smaller alliances?
Firstly your "co-alition" has created a situation where players and smaller alliances can not flourish by a world plagued by war. Normally smaller alliances and players can grow by initially avoiding the larger alliances as they all fight each other. Instead any smaller alliances/players that are in the vast amounts of oceans away from the front lines of the great war have been eaten by members of your "co-alition" or forced to join your ranks, and sit on the sidelines away from the action surrounded by a sea of friendlies forced only to send support to far away battles they cant see or be a part of (or attack smaller players not yet to sign up to your co-alition or inactive layers)
Do you seriously want me to quote the message on your forum in which HorZesAzz proposes a mass op on one non-aligned player a two members of Gearx?? Seriously I will be happy to.. I can assure you to the best of my knowledge since I have been in TD we have never organized an op on smaller alliances or small players.. Good thing Jonny put a stop to it though..
The problem is population numbers, We are trying to maintain population numbers on this world so the Grep Mods dont shut this world down.. Simple, As a result we need as many active players on this world as possible. So therefore rimming and taking out the smaller players solves nothing and it only serves to drive that player from the game. Hence why Jonny has ordered your alliance not to attack the smaller players and alliances.. Shall I quote that PM to you also as you don't appear to have received it.. Or perhaps TD got it before you did..
The smaller alliances can flourish, We in TD have asked our members not to attack them also and if anything we are helping Tesla Spears and we also have a pact now with the Immortal Mates of Gaul. Theres some intel for you ZT.... So seriously, How are we not benefiting them? Yes normally the smaller alliances do fight each other, But when the bigger bully comes along they are forced to band together in order to survive. We aren't attacking Tesla Spears, Gearx or immortals, or at least organising ops on them, while your "Deputy of Operations" plans an op for the "Monster Wabbits" op team on the same thing.. Seriously Osiris, You couldnt be more wrong here with this first point, Also they aren't forced to join anything. We reached out to IMOG after they arrived here on this world and we are offering them assistance and Res.. Nothing more, we have not asked for anything in return from them and we don't plan on it either.. It is simply a case of helping smaller players to grow and stay active.
Also the key detail, Perhaps it was to hard since even Sir Codfish with his fish like vision didn't spot it.. It was the edit button.. Only a select few in ZT have the authorization to edit the internal announcements, And one of them is sending us screenshots....?
Many of the players of this world have simply stopped playing because of this over the last few months or been eliminated by your members for not signing up.
Such as?
Since this has been achieved by TD you have caused more of an unbalance in this world creating a stale environment for anyone not on the front lines of the ZT vs Coaliton war. And you now have the audacity to moan about it on the forum pointing blame at ZT for attacking a smaller alliance whilst taking no responsibility for the actions you have taken, the choices you have made and the status quo that YOU keep in place.
You talk about a taking responsibilities, then have the nerve to suggest we created a stale environment? ZT are in this position because it was a position of their own making... Simple.. ZT went to war with everyone around them and as a result just like the smaller alliances are doing, some of the larger members banded together in order to survive and fight back. What did you expect to happen? You made your bed, Now lie in it..
Long story short you are all afraid that if you were to end your co-alition not one of your alliances could survive alone, you would rather survive on a server being destroyed due to this stays quo (again your words not mine), than flourish or fail in a server where alliances are judged by their own merit not that of the 4 alliances they hide behind.
Afraid of ZT? You realize your alliance is leaking cities on a daily basis.. In fact your progress into 44 is actually more of a regress now and I hope your aware that even your top players are handing over cities simply so you can secure your core ocean. Because that really is the only hope you have left if you want to win when WW comes along.
Now take your quotes from that movie that is only borderline historically inaccurate and jog on back to ZT land while you continue to fill your head with myths and legends.
Also while here on behalf of the coalition I would like to wish a get well soon and wish a speedy recovery to Joe80.
