Such things are decidedly not fun for affected players, are never managed well, and result in lasting harm to the orgs after the purges have been made. This is exactly the type of conflict that leads to player apathy which is the death of a group.

I also think the whole "everyone should be in conflict with everyone" mentality is horrible. Lasting peace and alliances can be just as interesting as constantly trying to force conflict. That is a whole different topic though and one that has been beaten to death by now.

Part of the problem is that conflict is what keeps us engaged. This game, the credit market, the investment in organizations, comes from camaraderie with those on a given side, a large amount of emotional value placed on the structures of our side, and the need to grind the other bastards down into the dust. Without conflict, sad to say, there's nothing that keeps a large amount of the game invested. Economically speaking, who's going to buy damage runes and other such nonsense in peacetime?

I had no trouble reading it! Ya'll need to get into more trouble with the principle/cops so you can train your mind to read upside down by reading the reports on their desk and seeing what is being said about you as they try and berate/accuse you.

Gregori, what have you been doing that involves a principal and cops berating/accusing you of things?

Inability of computer to read it rather than me! Anyway, carry on, just wanted to find out if she was saying anything relevant or Urazial was just playing mad libs with her...

Actually I'm just using some old version of IE due to my obsessiveness...my fault, not England's!

I think it'd be quite hard for Gaudiguch to come out and say, "You cannot be a member of a b c d e f g h i j k or l orders" - they are the city of freedom, after all. Whereas Hallifax might have an easier time of saying it, I don't see it as an overwhelming Elostian-esque move (I could be wrong though!), and I don't think his order has a lot of political push in Hallifax.

While I would love for this all-encompassing order that has members in Serenwilde, Hallifax and Gaudiguch, all holding up these strict, Eventruian ideologies of purity, faith and blind devotion, I can't see it working in such a way that his order members wouldn't try to keep those three orgs from going to war with one another. Which, ICly, is grand in Eventru's eyes (all glory to the Light! Rabble rabble!), I don't think that's healthy for the game. While I would certainly love to tone down and be a bit more all-encompassing, it's not something that, I think, would work very well in Lusternia while maintaining a healthy atmosphere for the usual org dynamics.

I'd be interested to see Lyreth come back right now, I may be wrong but he seems like he might fit in the hallifax pantheon. Though that switch would cause issues

Isune, bring Isune back. Nobody cares about Lyreth.
