Well, with the number of rogue attacks it looks like I'll have plenty of opportunity for war. The rules don't have to be rigid and confining, they just have to imply there is some control. Particularly in CN, all the members of an alliance suffer for the sins of one. BTA has a rule about aggressive attacks, but its not rigid. If I want to go on a tech raid, I can, but its with the understanding that I do so on my own and it doesn't involve the BTA. I get in trouble, I can expect no help. As things are right with WP, anything anyone does involves the entire alliance. You have no system for separating out actions as individual from those of an alliance. As far as fun, we each have our definitions of what that is. Its unfair to impy I'm not having fun because my idea of fun defers from yours. I'm not trying to change what you're doing because I know you're having fun. I enjoy the role-playing aspects and opportunities the game presents more, it doesn't mean I'm having any less fun. I agree that just logging on to cash taxes and spend it for two minutes everyday wouldn't be my idea of fun either. I wouldn't do it at all if I weren't having fun. To each his own. I respect your attitude and there are times I wish I could be more on the edge like you. But it's not in my nature anymore than it is in your nature to be more like me.

Edit: Well all the other alliances I looked at have an application process and warn you against listing as being part of their alliance until they have approved, so pursumably there are measures that can be taken even if it's dogpiling you until to give up. I have seen threads where members were kicked out of different alliances. How its done, I don't know, all I can say is what I've seen. One of the things has something to do with masking which apparently can differentiate a real member from someone pretending to be a member.
