Dudes, seriously, read between the lines. We never "hated" her, she's nothing but melodramatic. We quietly, without fuss, and without any wanted drama, simply let her go when her "friends" told us she wanted to go. We are not stupid however and know how some players love to plunder and destroy a village before they go "just for the fun of it." We all see it laughed about all the time on these forums. So we decided to reduce the risk of that happening and were thankfully able to remove her from the village before anything like that could have happened. We were lucky.
If she's just butthurt for being misunderstood for wanting to just take seeds, why didn't she just ask for them in the first place?! Obviously it was more than just seeds she was after. Any reasonable person would have simlpy asked, "Hey, thanks for all the help but I need to leave. Mind if I could have a few seeds to help start elsewhere?"
It was never a "he said, she said" type of situation. We had several long talks with everyone about it. The other guys admitted everything she's saying about them, and she's confessed that her intentions upon leaving were not pure.
We don't care that we look too "mean" for kicking her out for allegedly just wanting to take seeds. We really just want peace and for everyone to get back to enjoying the game.
How about hearing some other village's horror stories now? I know our drama is epic, because we have an epic village. But still, lets move on!
What are you talking about, you were just trying to reduce the risk? What happened to my "incriminating screenshots"? "reducing the risk" implies that you weren't sure whether I was going to raid you or not, and "we have screenshots" implies that you knew for sure that I was going to raid you. Well, I guess it doesn't really matter. If you kicked me out "just in case" you could have been nicer about it. And yes, there was fuss. I was called a worthless, soulless piece of shit and a variety of other things. I'm sorry for not having screenshots of that.
Why didn't I ask for the seeds in the first place? Because I wasn't sure if I was going to leave or not yet. I hadn't asked for anything because I hadn't told you that I was leaving. I hadn't told you about my plan to leave until you rudely kicked me out. If you want proof of my uncertainty, I left a runestone behind a rock near the town I moved to telling them that I changed my mind about staying with them. After I carved it, I realized that I was not welcome back at your place and I put the runestone behind a rock since it wasn't valid anymore.
Yeah, I kinda want peace too. I'm glad we got to talk. Sorry for everything, man. I admit that chasing you down might have been a bit much.

I personally would not want to have anything to do with you because I would know you could never be trusted again. If you want something you ask, I am sure if you did they would've just given it to you.
I am sorry for being too harsh, can't help it.
If they had politely confronted me about it, I would have apologized and given them back whatever I took and more. In my new village I was worried about this scenario repeating itself, I thought they might call me a thief out of nowhere because things kept getting misplaced by everyone. I never told anyone this, but I decided that in my new village if I were accused of thievery again I'd give whoever's stuff was missing some good curios (flotsams aren't so hard to find).
Heh, I guess I wouldn't want to have anything to do with someone who would react like that to me taking something so small, so it's best for people like me and sfb to stay away from each other. There really was no ill intent on my part. And it's okay if you're harsh, I kinda feel I deserve it.
Epilogue (written several weeks later, edited into this post as not to bump this topic):
Reading back trough my posts, they make me feel sick too. I overreacted a lot and apologize sincerely to all those involved. I was the most immature of us all.
