When we attacked that RoR fellow a few days ago, we were legitimately concerned about him stealing S and D from us. He had a large number of crates, and he appeared to be headed to our castle. We don't have enough fiefs to afford S and D pirating, so we attacked him. It wasn't for no reason, it wasn't because we wanted to pick a fight, it was in defense of our precious internet commodity.
Of course, that fact is of little importance now. All I'd like to do is once again request that both parties in this conflict agree to a gentleman's accord in which we don't attack at retarded hours. I would like to suggest that we do our best to keep battles between 5pm and 2 am EST. Yes, we did attack that other fellow at 3:30 AM, and that was kinda shitty. This attack is near 7 AM which is really shitty. Lets try to put a stop to this. I can't make you guys do shit, but I'm not being unreasonable nor rude. Daruvian talks a lot of shit and I'm fine with that. I don't control my members, but you'd do well to ignore him based upon your responses to him. If you're looking for srs business posts, read mine.
I also understand that interception of armies sometimes can't really wait until the next day. That's a real tough hurdle to get past, but lets do our best to not move through contested territory past the hours of 12 PM EST and 2am EST. I give my word that we'll do our best to keep to that timeframe if you folks will agree. Regardless of if you agree or not, we'll not initiate attacks that are not between the hours of 5pm-2am EST unless we make a mistake and fuck up.
I do hope that we can come to an agreement. I doubt we'd be able to do that with FCC; we hold a fucking lot of ire and animosity between our factions at the moment. But my faction has been damn near exactly where you guys are. We were very friendly and cooperative with FCC, but we didn't consider ourselves vassals. Factions that we were opposed to at the time called us vassals all the damn time, though. We resented that fact, hell, that's part of why we fired shots against FCC. We wanted to prove that we weren't anyone's bitches.
I reckon that you're in a position very similar. Of course you're very friendly with FCC; you've not gained a fief through anyone but them. Its only natural that you'd be amiable towards them. They're a good faction to fight for, although their teamspeak can be taxing on one's nerves during battles in my opinion (and many others I have spoken to). I mean shit, who doesn't want to fight for a faction that has excellent fucking gear EVERY BATTLE? I don't mean that as "lol armor crutcher yashawn nerds" either; FCC has their shit together and has all loomed shit all the time and it makes them get a large following of mercs outside of their client clans (referring to remnant, aow, hg, fallen) which already provide them with a lot of mercs. They win a lot of battles, and damn near everyone likes to be on the winning team.
All that doesn't make you vassals. Truth be told, nobody but yourselves knows if you're a vassal or not. We don't know shit about how you communicate with FCC. We don't know shit about if you take orders from them. When we were in your shoes, I consulted Kesh on damn near every strat move we made, because he's a fucking encyclopedia of strategus knowledge. The man very rarely makes any mistakes on the strat map.
tldr;
i write a wall of text trying to seduce the tits and ass alliance into an agreement preventing shitty battle times
