I would like to say that, looking past all this dramatic bullshit, we do not harbor ill-will towards ryleh. As is usually the case a few overly-dramatic and bitter individuals paint their faction as terribly pathetic and incompetent. People like archiplex are, unfortunately, swept into the conflict due to politics. If we had it our way we would simply focus on eradicating the individuals perpetuating this conflict, but war is never that simple or easy.
We did not start this conflict but I think most of us at NB would like to see it end. While it felt good personally to loot ryleh (to the point where I knocked myself out twice) and get revenge against those who raided us and shitposted on the forums, I do not feel good seeing archiplex losing 50$ worth of pages. Nor do I feel any satisfaction at making many of their players likely to quit. Furthermore, even though Mightysheep has been conducting himself in a manner that would make his own mother ashamed of him, I understand his frustration at not being able to die a satisfying death.
Due to a combation of poor siege mechanics, a lack of satisfying battles, forum alting/shitposting, a lack of communication and, above all, a lack of trust this war has, in my opinion, gone on for far too long. I do not believe in the sincerity of a white peace since we were attacked completely unprovoked (unless you consider posting a proposal on the forums to be an act of war) but since the actual intent of this war, which we all know was to provide pvp content, has not been fufilled I think it is time that ainran get off their golden dick throne and decide to actually negotiate for once.
Perhaps it is time to build up the level of trust and communication to a more acceptable level. I cannot speak for my faction, but I think that the potential for a realistic peace deal exists. How it comes about I cannot say, but ainran aren't exactly in a term-setting position.
