OOC Thread

[The Celtic Viking]

Yeah. This reminds me though, if you and johnhoughthom did anything other than occupy the settlements you took, you should let me know how many citizens you displaced/enslaved, so you can get the money to your account.

[Paul D]

I should hope not, or else you enslaved our own people!

[The Celtic Viking]

Yeah, that would be slightly... how shall we say? "Inappropriate".

[LeoCordis]

No, I displaced the population. In EB there is occupying/displacing/enslavement with the latter being the worse. I chose displacement because I imagined there would have to be some sort of punishment for the province being bribed.

And TCV I will have to remember to do that.

[Paul D]

why would you punish the common people for the decision of a treacherous magistrate?

[LeoCordis]

The people went along with it. The whole town is traitorous and dispelling isn't that harsh a punishment. At least they're not slaves.

Guys, this is a great argument to be having, but for God's sake, why are you having it OOC instead of roleplaying it IC? It's playing football on a slanted hill full of sharp stones when there's a clean and level field right next to it just waiting to be used.

Sorry I haven't been active recently, I'll try to catch up today. One thing I noticed is the income, I know it's been mentioned before but naval trading income seems hugely inbalanced. The weakness was supposed to be susceptibility to pirates, two people have had their income cut in half by pirates, but are still making twice my income. Then again estates can be affected by bandits so that argument makes even less sense. Oh, and if Ammonion is my province shouldn't I be receiving it's (meagre) income?
