I dont think i am exaggeration at all, you on the other hand are turning a drop of water into an ocean by promoting astrum like that.
You can't say Astrum goes on regular looting expeditions if you went on one looting mission last half year or so.
It's not about the rogues nor other external factors, in fact giving arguments like those proofs the exact mindset that makes realms boring.
Who wants to sit in a realm that never takes risks?
Astrum is rigid, communicates very little realm wide and doesn't do anything to incorporate new nobles or give ambitious nobles room to take responsibilities or pursue careers.
These nobles cant even discuss things since no information gets to them(quite often because there is nothing to share) and there is no one to discuss it with.
Happens allot in BM though(maybe a majority of all realms) and it isnt easy to keep a realm dynamic, but i think we all have to do our best to make the game fun for all instead of creating a rigid hierarchical structure with a silent majority serving their masters.
