I hold myself to the idea of having respectable morals. With that said, I am not opposed to minor things like spies, and PnP that has the intent to sow chaos between other tribes. On top of that, I'm not a fan of backstabbing or betraying people, however I accept it is a very real thing in this game. In fact, it is a very real thing in a lot of games, as well as real life war. If I'm working with someone, 9/10 times I will not backstab them unless I find out that they plan to do so to me. Consider it a casus belli betrayal. Face it, these sort of things are quite unavoidable.
I am a very loyal person, as I'm sure Al, TreX and Jake noticed during my diplomacy talks with them when I represented BSB. Which brings me to the thing about you hating me since the day I joined TEA...
Firstly, don't lie, you don't hate me, you hate BSB. Council knows of this, but us ex-BSB members still have our old skype group and during the first week or so of merging, your name appeared the most when complaints appeared about the hostility most, if not all of us felt. Albeit your name was tied for first place with another (whose name I shall not enclose because there is no longer a rift between anyone), but you seem to not be able to let things go. Also, your name did hang around for longer than the other aforementioned person.
There's one thing you ought to know about me. This is a game. I care for naught of my reputation. If I really wanted to, I could make a new account, with a new name, and nobody would ever know. So long as that is a thing, negative reputation isn't a thing. At all. Want to know something I did? I was known as a PP whore, by friend and foe alike. Friends joked about it, but foes absolutely loathed me, and called me a noob. Big deal. But I'm a strange person, as you may know, so, guess what I did? I proved everyone right. @night had pretty much won the world, there was no stopping them, so I made a move that in reality did nothing to them, but caused an absolute hellstorm. It was quite amusing. You know what I did? PP'd some of my villages down, including about 4-5 of them to 144 points.
So therefore, if someone calls me something, so what? People wanna call me a backstabber? I'll backstab them, because chances are, if people think I'm a backstabber, I'll be backstabbed. If people think I'm a PP whore, chances are nothing I do will sway their opinion. If people call me a noob, I'd much rather "prove them right", so that they will underestimate me at a later date.
Because of that, I can't help but entertain the thought of a truly sickening display of immoral trickery, deceitful backstabbery and underhanded war efforts. Because the things people claim are "ermagerd so bad no trust pls halp they evil" is completely laughable compared to what could be happening. If you fools experienced this first hand, perhaps your eyes won't be so clouded when a tribe does something that's mildly grey, which every single damn tribe does anyway!
