Well, of course I lost mad role points for that, but I knew I would, and
it was worth it. I got tremendous support for it, and it had to be said.
And since I'm usually the one to jump head first into a situation no
matter what the consequence, I did it.

Knock all the rolepoints off me You want, I'm going for the record. As
long as IC conflicts are allowed to be resolved ICly, that's fine by me.

Remember, issuing is the last resort. It's what we do when we've failed
as Achaeans. If you attack the dwarf village, expect to be blocked from
that village by sympathizers, if not attacked. If you steal corpses,
expect to be killed. If you insult, expect to be attacked. If you spit
in the face of a strong knight, don't be suprised to wish you had a
cloak defense up. These are all things that have happened to me, and all
things that made my time here worthwhile. Don't be a generation of
whiners and complainers.

Ok, sorry for rambling again, I had to validate spending 1k on a post
that was originally intended as a "so what?" for losing Role Points over
something that needed to be said ages ago. Ok, now back to the issue of
Forestals vs Mhaldor.

Forestals --- Don't be so hasty to start a war, we're just gonna have to
deal with more god damn exterminations.

Mhaldor --- Extermination is less comparible to attacking Mhaldor, as it
is to going in Mhaldor, and clearing out the stockrooms in all the
shops, and destroying your guards. Extermination is a line that should
not be crossed lightly, as you can only expect a war by doing it, as
well as the hatred of the rest of Achaea when herb supplies go down.

You fall back on the explanation that Sarapis gave you this power, well
as my previous, and current post would suggest, just because an option
is presented to you doesn't mean there is any wisdom in using it.
