To drag this thread back on topic:

The proposed limits will not be added.  So far as the dev team in general, and I in particular, can tell, the problems described by the original post, to the extent that they need solving, should be solved IC.

I would request that any further discussion of who knew what when be stopped, as it's more or less irrelevant at this point.

I'm sorry but this request seems whiny. If you trusted an inter-realm alliance purely on honor than you messed up. Alliances, in game and in RL, are all about what the two sides are able to offer each other. When the alliance isn't worth it one side will turn on the other. Naturally one side will be at a disadvantage but if they weren't reading the signs well enough to expect the betrayal than they don't deserve to exist. On the other hand if there was no indication or evidence, than the betraying side played their hand well and the side that got betrayed are a bunch of sad saps who should have kept their heads up.

As requested, since this thread is degenerating, it no longer belongs in a Feature Request.  Any further discussion should be directed at an appropriate thread in the appropriate forum (in this case General Discussion).

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
