realms should absolutely be destroyed because otherwise you end up in situations like these where the history is so entrenched its impossible for people to see things beyond their own jaded perspective. there needs to be a cycle of old realms dying and new ones rising up. and it doesn't require island resets, just players losing this ridiculous attitude that their realm is something precious and sacrosanct that must not be taken away or it simply ruins the entire game, wah wah.
there is an element of risk in this game that makes it more exciting than others. i dont get why so many players seem to think that eliminating that risk is a good thing.
the people who complain about perdan or any other strong realm's tactics and accuse such realms of only caring about winning need to take a good long look at themselves. if youre such a purehearted roleplayer not concerned with winning, why are you so concerned with losing? this is just something bad that happened to your character, roleplay through it. you have all sorts of layers of complexity being added to your character's story and a million ways to move forward.
also most if not all of you have been on the other side of the coin in some other realm and some of you wrote just as long essays justifying similar actions to the ones youre writing essays decrying now.
seriously smh, participation trophies for all of you
