I joined S, under Riodan's leadership.

We fought many wars, which I participated in, fighting enemies, defending members, giving resources - everything you'd expect of an alliance member.

Riodan stepped down as leader, and Trister of Ulyss took over.

DRAW set up gate/radar systems all over our territory, started jamming us near conquers so they could take them, and attacking colonies we were attacking, thus killing our units.

Many of us grew angry that this was being allowed to happen unchallenged, so we began to challenge it, and Trister ordered us all to stop.

Deciding that I had no desire to remain in S, given recent leadership decisions, I approached the DRAW leader, Tabula, and asked to join.

Tabula agreed, and I built an outpost near DRAW.

S kicked and conquered me.

I serve S for months and months loyally, and yet they cannot find it in themselves to allow me to leave peacefully.

In my own alliances, I have an open door policy, my members are free to leave if they disagree with something I am doing - I consider this a common courtesy to offer your members - they should be in your alliance becuase they want to be, not becuase of fear of retribution if they leave.

At the very least, I consider the kick and conquering as a dishonorable, cheap shot at somebody who has aided them for months.

At the worst, I consider it a great betrayal committed by my friends.

The people who's names I see on the battle report which conquered my colony, tread carefully in future.

100% agree with routhy, i lead alliance under the same policy and never failed...mayb dats y S is falling apart... i hope DRAW is still gonna let Routhy join to get his revenge

Tom, it hurts my Bd heart when I read this. More over, I was the founder of this S alliance, the Deadly Sins. Above all the of the 7, Gluttony, Wrath, Lust, Greed, Pride, Envy, and Sloth, they committed the 8th and the deadliest sin, the sin of Betrayal.

Routhy, I am sorry for this event that has occurred. No doubt this is the reason for my orange flag on E2.

More ever, you will get your revenge, I assure you with this. Next era, I am coming back with a vengeance, I hope you are doing the same seeing as you are in my team next era.

Please do not let this hurt your Bd career, rather than, opening to your eyes on your 'friends.'

Good luck on E4 and E2.

look guys: anyone want my version of the story? add me on msn [email protected]

this seems to be commen place in bd these days and it is and uter betral


Sry to hear

What a bunch of hog wash. You've turned ya back on blackhawk
you've turned ya back on gauv. you turned ya back on trister....
is anyone not seeing a pattern here......open door policy or not...
You actually think its coool to leave an alliance and join the enemy. while your at war with them. where is the betrayal. that falls on you tom... so pull off ya skirt and stop acting like a girl
wha wha wha....and why would DRAW take him in now.he has nothing to offer.....he's a flight risk.....
So load up your return banter....i cant wait to see this "HOGWASH"

We were not at war when Routhy was supposed to join us. I left S, and joined DRAW, and prolly for the same reason Routhy wanted to: It sucked. S is all greed, and every man for himself policy. So I left, and joined DRAW... I like it better here.

i got kicked so routhy could join -.-
then he's not even joining? :O

me no likie

Where are you getting this from?

I left HKF for a similar reason to why I left S, and it was with Gaurav's blessing.

As for Blackhawk, the only time I've ever played in his alliance, I played for about 200 ticks, then deleted because personal issues were affecting my activity - how is that turning my back on him?

The ONLY times, in my entire BD career that I've changed alliances are:

1. In my first ever round when I slowly climbed to higher ranked alliances as I grew stronger (I always did so with my leaders permission, and left to go to friendly alliances)

2. In my second round, from TCA to BYZ - they were allied and I had my leader's permission, because I wanted a chance to play with a legend like Hannibal.

3. On the current round of E4, which I've already explained.


I've played in dozens of alliances, and stood and died with many of them, so stop trying to paint me as somebody who jumps ship at any given chance.

Both times I moved on E4, I was under a different leader than the one I joined, and I disagreed with their style, so I left.
