Hi all.
For those of you who don't know me: I'm one of the players on the Lucaya account. I'd like to set up a discussion thread. This is based around the topic of "refugees".
I'll give a backstory, to show the reason why this is an interesting topic to me & to give a basic topic to be discussed before others throw in their experiences.
[SPOIL]Ok, so as you will most likely know, Pacman folded. A number of members went to MANIC. When asked by my previous tribe-mates to join them, I refused on the basis that I don't join tribes I view as an enemy, as we had previously been fighting them. I had no incoming attacks from MANIC for a long period of time (must be a couple of weeks at least now), and MANIC member(s) had since contacted me in an attempt to recruit us to MANIC - which clearly hasn't worked, and won't, owing to the childishness of the duke of this tribe.
However, for a bit of fun my coplayer and I began talking to a couple of friends on this world, and set up a 3-man tribe. Attempts to recruit Lucaya account to MANIC continued.
After deliberation, it seemed that CM would be the most enjoyable tribe to join. MANIC seems very upset by this, and so made contact with our new tribe after failing to convince us that MANIC is a half-decent, respectable tribe to join, claiming that we are a refugee. However, there have still been no attacks in a long period of time.[/SPOIL]
Therefore, what I would like to discuss is this:
Do you consider someone a refugee if you put a huge amount of time in to trying to convince them to join your tribe, and then they don't join, but no attacks are exchanged for the entire period?
Personally, I'd say not. Unless there are very recent conflicts, or ongoing conflicts, or a clear loss of villages, a player doesn't count as a refugee. I'd just be interested to see other people's thoughts on what a refugee is - feel free to use the example I personally have provided, or use your own experiences to add to the topic
