by Belleraphone » Sun Jun 01, 2014 1:11 pm If you are reading this, I hope you are a member of the long lost tribe of the people of Elohim. If not, then please do not fill this thread with anti-Semitic posts. The last two threads have been like this, I will answer anyquestions you have about our village, including our foreign policy, but please do not criticize or belittle our village. I will also pre-answer some of your questions at the bottom of the thread after I address the concerns of my people.
Who are we?
We are an autonomous village of Jews who seek freedom from persecution and discrimination on the MMORPG Haven and Hearth. We think that Haven and Hearth is a fun and enjoyable game, but unfortunately it is one that is hostile to Jewish pride and heritage. Me and my good brother Tietovallu have founded a village, Israel, that is made up exclusively of Jews. Our village is founded to protect the gaming experience of Jew gamers all around the world. We have around 12 active members and are currently seeking more membership due to a slight drop in our numbers.
How can I join?
First, you must be Jewish. This is non-negotiable since our village is, after all, designed solely for the purpose of protecting the proud Jewish people. Second, you must be active or willing to be active to join. Although we would like to accept every Jewish brother and sister, we only have so many resources before we start spreading ourselves too thin. If you meet both of these requirements, please PM me for further details. Before you are accepted, I will browse through your posts to make sure you did not make any anti-semitic remarks or expressed an identification with a non-Jewish ethnicity. If you are accepted, you will be placed in a separate but guarded village where you will carry out various acts of labor to prove your dedication to the Jewish cause of our village. This is to deter anti-Semitic trolls who want to join the village and then massacre us, as well as Jewish brothers who overestimate their dedication to the game.
What have you done so far?
Consistently provided a safe haven for the Jews that play Haven and Hearth. We only have a small number (the highest we ever reached at one time 16) and we would like to expand, but nevertheless we have a very low death rate for a people so persecuted. We've probably seen about 40 members, most of them left the village due to inactivity with the game. Only two have ever died in total - the first was relatively new and was killed because he insisted on tagging along a raid with his Jewish comrades against our recommendations, he was killed in one shot. The second was killed because he afk'd in a boat on the river and someone destroyed the boat. As long as you listen to the senior members of the village, we can guarnatee not only survival but also a place to prosper and strengthen your character. Since the beginning of world seven, we have probably killed around 80-90 confirmed anti-Semites. We determine if someone is an anti-Semite or not by sending an alt to ask them questions about Israeli or the Jewish people. If they give an "edgy" answer like "Hitler was right" or answer in Russian we mark them for hatred of the Jewish people and wait around two weeks to destroy them. We wait this so that these villages do not put two and two together and realize they were attacked for what they said about the Jews. We have also killed an even greater number of Haveners at risk for anti-Semitism. These include hermits encroaching on our territory, wondering explorers/rangers, and enemies of another village. Other than that, our most notable achievement is an effective monopoly on the q100+ clay in the world. Although we have not confirmed it, our buffer (see below) has indicated that we control a large portion of the q100+ trade in the global market. If your village has ever imported q100+ clay, it is likely that it was filtered through our proxies.
How have you managed to be so successful?
Our main strategy is not strength, but stealth. Anybody who joins our village who wishes to commit criminal acts are required to invest a LOT of LP into stealth. Additionally, we only carry out the attacks ourselves when we have to. Although we are small, we are a very productive village with access to many high quality resources, most notably clay. We usually trade with another village who acts as a "buffer" between our village and the global Haven economy. Essentially, we bring them the resources for trade with a little extra and they trade us the resources/order the hits for us and take their bonus for facilitating the trade. Additionally, this village does not carry out the attacks themselves, they hire them out, putting another buffer between us and the hitmen. We also don't name the village Israel because anyone entering our territory would know immediately know who we are, but it is still called Israel by its members.
I will now rebuke some common arguments I see in these threads to save everyone some time.
lol hitler was right jews did 9/11
Why do you want special treatment? Can't you just play the game like everyone else? Isn't a jew-only village just as racist as what everyone else is doing?
I would like to live in a world where people do not grief and kill Jews on a video game just for being god's chosen people, but this is not that world. I cannot express my Jewish heritage without being attacked in-game, and Tietovallu, a former member of A.D., was almost assassinated when he revealed that he was Jewish. Although I am a proud Jew, I enjoy the culture and heritage of others as well as their expression of those heritages and would love to live in a more diverse village. But desperate times call for desperate measures.
Isn't your "review village" exactly like a CONCENTRATION CAMP?
No, this is grasping for straws. In the concentration camps, the guards brutalized the Jewish prisoners and they were not free to leave. Although you will be permanently barred from joining the main village if you leave the "under-review camp", you are free to leave and join another village at any time. The guards are also there to make sure an anti-Semite doesn't get bored and just goes on a rampage to kill all the other players in the review village.
That is all for now, good luck brothers and sisters and may our numbers grow and our strength increase.
