The player was Ronin when he launched, you kicked him after the cs landed because he's inactive, which means you don't maintain your membership as cleanly as you purport.
You frequently lie, twist the truth and sow war between allies so that your members can support either side to gain bp anonymously. And you advocate being deceitful in your shared forums.
the members you picked up from the alliance I ran, more than half of those requested to come to Haven Reborn, begged in fact before going over to Ronin. Congratulations on picking up my trash and giving it a home.
I chose the people I wanted to come over to Haven Reborn because I trusted and knew these people to be hard working, loyal, daily players, ones that proved themselves in the line of fire, a fire you refused to take a front stage place in, every request in which I asked you to come forward and be proactively involved in the war you said you were more effective in the background.
Every request I had in which it involved a joint open operation with Dogs of war, you declined to help me teach my people without my coming under your control.
I did take some suggestions with the battle group message lists, but it did nothing to educate the masses, just a few select people. I took a bunch of noobs, and sorted out the gold dust, and took that to Haven reborn because, after fighting us, they gained some respect for us, no matter what they tell you in PM's before the crossover, surprise surprise, they might have lied to you in those pm's to throw you off, Just as you suggest we lie to others. While you were practicing deceit and manipulation, we pacted with Haven reborn and we got a good open feel for how they work internally and many of our members loved it. we had no relationship with your alliance that wasn't filtered or blocked in some way by the restrictions you put upon our communications.
I respect the accomplishments you had in the past with hardened experienced players, but you have no clue how to deal with members that show promise but lack experience without sounding condescending.
by the way, BP opportunities on your islands open both directions... just sayin.
