I am not asking for you to just say there are a bunch of reasons, I would like to actually here your reasons for calling them a bunch of dishonourable cowards.

I didn't.

That was DamnTaffer. I could answer for Taffer, but I'm not even going to try.

I wouldn't worry about that, he is probably about to post a neverending tirade explaining how.

Also, I'm guessing your a Barcan?

How is the moot a bunch of dishonourable cowards?

Frankly this is the only post I"ve read in a bit, but how about this: They didn't want to fight the Zuma?

..Or not.

Well then, the answer to your question is obvious. Aurvandil went to war with Madina, whom were members of the moot. Madina is no longer with us. The moot didn't really help them.

Aurvandil went to war with Barca, whom were members of the moot, the moot doesn't seem to be helping them.

Everytime I think of the Moot now i just think of the poem "First they came"

My answer is, who does? Because really how do we know that because of Tom wanting them to be there he might allow the GM to just keep pumping out units of 10k cs even if game mechanics wise it shouldn't be possible. Plus they have perfect cooridination since its all the same guy controlling the units.

Well, Madina did a good job of pissing of the 'Moot and having bad relations, they had people like Abbot as their chief progagandist after all, can't blame the 'Moot for not supporting them.

Just because you'd lose a duel doesn't make turning down a challenge any less cowardly.

For the thrill, the challenge, and the bragging rights.

After all, if you win, you would hold the highest reputation of any realm on Dwilight, and you can R.P. stuffing Haktoo and keeping her stuffed body standing next to your Throne, or whatever you want.

If you defeated the Zuma you'd be more feared than Aurvandil. I mean really, Aurvandil are just men the Zuma are ...more

As far as I know since I joined while Madina was basically already dead, Madina was only allied with 1 member of the moot, not a member of the moot and I thought I heard a good reason of why they didn't help Madina but I don't remember. For the Barcan war, I will not comment on whether or not they will be helping as I am not the leadership of Terran or D'hara so I don't know what they are planning though if they don't ever help in the war then I could see how you are calling them dishonourable cowards.

Just think of them as a decapitated corpse on our gate. They'd be like a "Mind the dog, trespassers you've been warned!" sign.

The problem with that is then who do you fight? Far better (from a purely OOC perspective) to leave your enemies alive to fight another day, otherwise you'll eventually have to turn on your allies/vassals in order to create conflict. This is the future that will probably confront SA at some point. I just hope the Dev team implements schism mechanics in time for us to epically implode and start killing each other  :)

If they were honourable and not cowards, there participation wuoldn't even be in question
