Guild news and announcements, war declarations, recruitment, military service offerings, etc.

Flaming is expected here. If you are easily offended, avoid this thread all together.

Be aware: your flag owns a port and my black deaths and voodoo are unloading on you and your nation. I am now going for every report i can possibly get and retrieve. You ruined it for everyone in the game so ill do what it takes to punish you and your associates.

Also if you part of a guild, they will be hitting the plunderboards real quick. In the name of Barbados, this will not be acceptable.

We have reached out to make a deal with the attackers and no response came so ill assume this means war.

Step up now or forever hold your peace.



I refer to the above and the contradiction inherent in logic of above and the later post claiming to attack as an individual and thus not involving his nation.
Having his cake and eating it... no?


I've stated my position on the matter. If you want to hash it out with CW, by all means Danik that is your choice. Clockwork acted out of his own volitions. The nation was completely unaware of the actions until we read about it on the forums.

Barbados is not interested in War.

What I wanted is for this topic to die before CW posted on it. I wanted the player(s) hitting the port to finish and just go away. I made a conscious effort to get back to playing the game and joined Barbados to help build it back up. Completed Nation Missions and didn't make a week before the BDs appeared dropping us from 2.1B to 15M. If someone has a problem with a player or players in Barbados, I'd appreciate if they would PM me or PsychoDad. Hell, I'd be fine with someone acting as an intermediary if you don't think you can trust us. I just want it to stop or be finished and then go away. I want to move forward but I'm slowly drifting back to minimal game play.

I wish for clarity is all. One post threatens retribution upon player, guild and nation. As a guildmate and fellow citizen I must assume I am included as a target. So yes, I would like to move on from that too.
But the latest post implies his attacks are as an individual and thus dont include his guild or nation as a rightful target of retaliation. So which is it then? Two individuals and/or two guilds and/or two nations or are all six involved in this spat?
So... some clarity please and then we can all move on or have a pissing contest or whatever...

Regarding the population decrease : yep that happens : I stopped worrying about it after the first few years : Mexico got hit badly numerous times : Spain suffered major losses : Bonaire suffered major losses : it does seem to be a pattern in which grudges get resolved by killing off great swathes of citizens.
There is no cure and whilst we can suspwct the hand of certain folk we cant prove much : scrap undercover casting of connies and BDs perhaps. But then we all like that when its us targetting the folk we dont like... hey ho.

I think this is nothing more than an player v player issue. To my knowledge Wolfie and CW have had an ongoing "dispute" for sometime. CW provoked, Wolfie cast on Barbados, CW cast on Aiora. I don't agree with Wolife casting Conspiracy nor CWs actions before and after Wolfie cast.

Barbados has addressed this issue internally and per the request of Wolfie publicly clarified that CWs actions were his own and not that of the Nation.

If there is something additional that is required, please let me know.

I'm not too worried about the decrease in population. Yes it sucks and is a setback, but we can survive. I just have concerns that this will stem beyond just population loss. As you can see, the latest tomfoolery is a prime example of crap that I'd rather not deal with. Certain things are expected. Influence and Population loss is going to happen, but there are points of reasonability. Black Death'ing a port over a grudge is probably one of them. If someone is doing that, not much we can do, but if we can reach out and resolve it, then I'm all for it. If we can't, then I hope that once they complete their goal, they let it go and move on. The key point that I want is the Move On part. It was the same principle I had when you and TLT raided the USA after Rothschild. Numerous things we did to try and stop you didn't work, eventually there is a point that you must realize that if you let them complete their goal, they will move on and leave the rest of us be.
