about a splintergroup disliking zoners - with sufficient background thats ok. -so far - no one has applied sufficient background further than a blanket bounty or unmet unreasonable demands though.
however - there are hardcoded characteristics.
zoners are not gods that cannot be touched indeed.
why do we believe that nomads for example cannot befriend humans cause -- with sufficient background? why do you believe that the dragons cannot execute a coup and take over kusari?
where is the limits of "sufficient background"? - does the definition only serve my purpose - or is my judgement clouded, cause i have a personal dislike for one group or another. - thats why i said - such global decisions and alterations can only be made by a group with a global understanding of factions.
igiss or the admin team
if players meddle with such mechanics - decisions are based on subjectivity - and end up in fighting like like when that totally stupid blanket bounty on zoners was posted - and veteran factions jumped to the occasion - and at that time ... there was NOT enough background lore given other than "some zoner killed a relative of mine, now i blanket bounty all zoners, even battleships" ( totally out of focus )
many a players joined in at that time, QCP, smokeones, many others - and no one really cared much for the sufficient background at that time. - so i am highly suspicious about the justification of providing sufficient background...
players are too much themselves than the role they ought to play. - almost no player truely is objective.
