Disgusted by warzone

[Kratos50]

Recently a new trend has been emerging in the syrtis realm. (I’m willing to bet its also happening in ignis and alsius but since I’m not a member of those realms I feel I don’t have the right to speak about them.) I don’t claim to be a major warzoner but I’ve spent quite a bit of time in large war parties and helped take more than a few forts and castles. Usually these parties consist of 20+ people over level 40 and a rather large assortment of level 30s. Often, after taking a fort or castle, it is proposed that we take another and invade. The “leaders” with phrases like “We don’t want to make them angry” or “We don’t have enough people” or my personal favorite “Alsius is our friend” usually shoot this down.

I guess what I would like to know is, when did the warzone become an area of diplomacy and small confrontations? Just a few months ago weren’t the forums flooded with messages asking when invasions would be coming? When did not having enough people constitute not attacking the enemy and instead returning to the “oh so boring grind”? And when the crap did the whole “Alsius is our friend rumor start”? Last I checked they were all too happy attacking our forts.

In all honesty though I have to wonder why people begged and pleaded for invasions and then not even attempt to invade.
