I been around along time in this game , I played in many leagues and played against many leagues . I can say and speak only from my personal experiences within this game that for every league stating they have never bullied or have always played a class act I can honestly say MY PERSONAL encounters with those leagues have not always been good and can say what they say is NOT true . ...I have marshal's even bully me in the past over nothing . I had four leagues sent full raid attacks and sieges my way ( yes four leagues on one person ) and I'm talking some of the most powerful leagues in storm fall . I've even had my own leagues sister league attack me on the sly or hit my sieges fiefs etc . believe me integrity is short and far in this game when it comes to rival leagues and sadly some even internally pull crap against their own members then expect loyalty. I know I have tried to play the game with respect for others trying to do my own thing ( which was to spend my time on here getting away from the everyday real life of my father being ill and passing and I'm still trying to deal with that loss but most people did not or do not respect that at all. Instead I was told long ago you either pick one side or the other, or else we will force you too through harassment and this would begin by rumors spreading if you refused to pick a side....the gossip was your considered a traitor or a spy, they would use alts to attack then try to sway you to their side using mains stating it must have been the opposing enemy etc ... For people to accuse Anarchy of bullying ,being disrespectful etc well let me ask you have your leagues done the same ? I really do not need a reply as I already know the answer from my own personal experiences.
I have screen shots of marshals lying right to my face over some issue their players or they them self started just so they could bully . I have screen shots ( from the past) where my own league at the time had its sister leagues harass me on alts for the sake of gaining a backing from a higher league. in other words they sold out their own player for the sake of becoming ally's with a higher powerful league. I even had one player go so far as to be friend me and try to say he would be my protector/ brother to gain my trust (but was really from a old group that wants vendetta for me not choosing a side or wanting to back stab people ) instead I chose to simply leave that league and was condemned for not choosing a side . so please lets cut the bs all of your leagues do the same.
I can say I wanted to build quietly and be left alone while I dealt with my fathers illness and death but was never left in peace to do so . However,I can say for every league that have posted today stating they do not do this sort of thing my encounter with each league has left me with the in ability to do so ( be left in peace) (not pick a side) ...I use to mail people telling them I did not want to choose a side or to do things that so many others do it fell on deaf ears and because I did not play the way they assumed I should I have been bullied , harassed, back stabbed by all of these leagues that have posted today in some form or another . So please stop saying your leagues do not do the same thing .THEY DO!!! . Some are worse then others true but pretty much every league resorts to the same thing at one point in time or another and some do it more often then others.
But for me personally I think what I found to be the ultimate low acts of leagues is:
#1 When I was at my worse low of dealing with my dads illness and eventually his death. one person lied of who they really are trying to be friend me as a friend/ online brother / protector/ being two faced about it all the while knowing what I was going through .Not to mention the whole reason they were doing it simply was because in the past I refused to choose a side, chose not to back stab someone and they felt I should have backed stabbed someone as they wanted me to do , I should have chose a side as they expected of me and I should have helped them upset a league because they felt I needed to do that . For me I just wanted that time to deal with the illness of my dad but for them they felt I was a ticket to helping them knock the rank 1 at the time off the charts .They did not care I had moral values or did not want to participate into back stabbing , choosing a side etc .I was a pawn that did not meet their requirements therefor they made this plan that they will forever as long as I play give me some sort of pay back for not buckling under their pressure to back stab choose a side ....n this one of the ways they went about it .
#2 was a league that let their sister league use alts to do the same sort of thing and do nothing over it just so they could gain ally's. selling out ones own member is pretty low . I do not need to mention names or leagues . You all know who you are and you all know which league your from.
So stating how this league and that league acts this way or that in a bad light when really some of these leagues are the reason people are many times forced into choosing a side, or having to do things just to be able to stay playing in this game is like calling what you see in one league as bad a mirror reflection of your own
No league is perfect nor is every player in every league bad .
I do like to give a bit food for thought though , the leagues have declined in ways of standards it started with some of the highest leagues putting spy's in other leagues , telling lies about other leagues and each league at the time who was doing these sort of thing made the choice to do so they basically started this trend for decline of civility and the more things they add it will just keep getting worse there has to be a medium or set standard by all leagues to uphold other wise the civility game play will just keep declining. is started way before Anarchy was established or even born so while all these leagues claim this and that as i said I been here for a very long time and seen all these leagues posting do the exact same thing way before Anarchy was ever born
But I do hope I could play more freely and less bothered by people trying to force me to choose a side or to do things that do not agree with my own set of morals and values . This is a war game but people do not have to lower their standards just to play or win a war .
Lets all keep it decent
My apology to kok I just realized this is a recruit page tab so on that note . Let me say something without degrading any league . You join kok or another league that is entirely up to you but I will say joining a bigger league can be a growth booster , many of the high leagues are quite active and you get rewards as well as not many people bothering you sometimes it gives you a better chance to grow . so gl and join as you please.
