    Default Dwarves

    No trespassing on our land. Just a warning to the next dwarf who goes wandering on our land.

    Try anything and you'll be the dead one.

    And your land is kinda on the main road between the city and the empire.

    No where does it say I have to allow dwarves to sneak into the secret part of my mines.

    Its a game about building, and we'll wander wherever we want (without griefing ofc). If you attack again this could be considered an act of war and a breach of our treaty, even if we let it slide this time.

    The only way in is through a locked metal door.

    To think that I once considered getting Minecraft. Glancing through the different topics on this massageboard I see my decision was wise enough.

    I think Akar means his tunnels are locked by a metal door.
    Oh no the picture of my dog disappeared!

    It's a point I've argued to exhaustion, Ascarona. The Dwarves know we think they're abusing the griefing rule but they justify making their cities near impossible to get into by claiming they're protecting valuables, while casually ignoring the fact that spawning renders everything they have worthless. When confronted by this, they justify this by claiming that if (yes, if) a rule restricting spawning for Kingdoms were to be passed they'd need defences.

    So, essentially, they justify underhanded abuse of rules by invoking a non-existant rule. They even sealed up the entrance Hilary found into their tunnels when they worked out which one he'd found...

    If hilary made it into every one of our kingdoms, then that just shows that your earlier complaints were complete crap. Even with the new fortifications hilary managed to come in/ Akar has a locked metal door and no one cares, but for some reason everyone has a stick up their *** about the dwarves.

    Now, akar, maybe i misheard, but does this new construction completely block the road? In that case wouldn't you need to either allow a path through or a route going around, as the road was there first.

    Sounds to me like the dwarves want their cake and to eat it as well.
    You can't seriously expect to wander around anyones constructs you want without invite and through a locked door no less but call bloody murder when somone does it to you.

    If anyone else makes their Kingdoms unreasonably difficult to even find a way into then yes, I'd take exception to their methods as well. You guys have already admitted on numerous occasions that your entire goal is to make entrances extremely difficult to find, and were online today sealing up the entrance (Warrior's Tunnel, iirc) you had determined Hilary had been using. The act of selaing up the few entrances people find says it all, to be frank.

    What is funny about all this fuss is that I still easily get in.

    As a Kingdom, Akar, you can't simply lock yourself in. They're quite within their rights to make a way in if none exist while at war.
