We spoke with your chief, Garath, earlier today.. It became clear, that the thieves that stole from you, were not from Bottleneck, but from some town called 'B-nec' or something similar.
Your chief got this name from a signpost there he said. That caused the confusion.
We live about 2 or more supergrids away from you. B-nec is in no way part of Bottleneck, we do not know them at all.
Our village is called Buyan. Our group is known as Bottleneck.
Please, before you make inaccurate and outdated accusations, check with your chief.
Regards, Martinuzz, Lawspeaker of Bottleneck

Re: Bottleneck politics
Well Martinuzz posted before I could, but you should still take this as a lesson. Rather than flinging a poorly based accusation filled with enough snark to obscure its meaning, you should at least attempt diplomacy so they can offer to make amends and take the scents to find out who amongst them did it. And it makes you look less silly if you have wrong, second-hand information.
I'm not part of New Bottleneck, but I have a few old friends there, whose reputations I resent you trying to smear. They've been doing exactly what the OP says they will since the First World, and calling the whole faction out as lying criminal scum because you traced a scent back to the (wrong!) town is just ludicrous.

Re: Bottleneck politics
Whoa there. We might be putting spin on things, like everyone else does, but I don't recall posting anything factually inaccurate. Give me a list of those lies, if you will.

Re: Bottleneck politics
I should say here that the lawspeaker of Zendar, Garath, did just this - approached us diplomatically and tried to get to know what had happened and how we could solve it. He has my recommendations as a good chief of his village. I am glad it turned out the crime in question had nothing to do with us, and I am sad that we live too far apart to be able to help in catching the criminals (I do additionally find it abit tasteless to copycat the names of established fractions, without wanting to give Xanadu the lulz they so desperately want by accusing them of thisKoE wrote: [...]

If i was sarcastic in my last post, it was as a result of people jumping the forum drama-wagon without checking their facts.

Re: Bottleneck politics
I do apologize for the misunderstanding, but nonetheless, I still distrust ny faction that would claim a whole supergrid to itself.

Re: Bottleneck politics
We do not claim it for ourselves at all.. We just do not tolerate any unprovoked raiding / griefing in it.
