I do take OOC more in mind, but more in guiding my chars themselves. My OOC however has nothing to do with the realm I'm in. Even if Oligarch falls for instance, but it's for a good reason and to create more fun, I'd be alright with that. What concerns me for example is that you say there is a great click between Perdan and Vix and 'betrayel' or anything is pretty much out of the question. I'm growing much more of the opinion that alliances should become more fluent, because I've seen these big long lasting alliances ruining continents time and time again. When you finally do win with your best buddy, what then?
I can say I had more fun in Ibladesh, even when we got destroyed (you of all people should know :p) then in a realm that has best buddies and some other alliances and 'dominates' the island. That is just my OOC vision though and I know there are others who would disagree with my concept of fun, which makes this discussion so difficult.
