Topic: [370047] why do small alliances have to pay tribute to big alliances?

im new to the game, but it seems unfair that big alliances like the Godz make small ones pay $$$$$ to be left alone.
isnt that just big bully tactics?

Big Alliances who think they own the Server like to dictate their own set of rules, They think that to make smaller weaker Alliances should pay tribute to be left alone. They don't like it when they are on the receiving end of their own rules so all I can suggest is that You stand firm and refuse to pay and if they continue their rot tool rake them out of existence. It works for others just ask Gzer All major Alliances are too scared of Him to even try to attack Him He can clear a wall in 17 rakes which gives Me a laugh. Stop being scared and show the Server that crap play begets crap play and rember in war all is fair dig tunnels and set stakes You will survive We did

The same group that was trying to bully before is back at it. @Macarthur Saint (AU1) just messaged me and is back to his same bully tactics

LOL. Really.. Let's break this down. Your alliance (let's go there hey, ELITEWarlorlds)  Such bad spelling, which is highly probable to have Multi's frequent it attempt to make a peace proposal which i reject and explain in a couple of explanatory mails. No attacks, some mature overview mail replies to what i perceived and see, no words of derogatory meanings other than calling you a flip when accused of  "bullying your alliance"  I think you need to take up Farmville or go back and dressing your dolls as it appears this game isn't for you. I call it communication and not being rude and reply to mails. I await further attempts at you putting my team and i down. I'm curious what "Group" your referring too as it's just me who has sent a few mails of explanation to you.

We just request that you both keep it civil, as there is still a BOO RESTRAINING ORDER against any attacks.
Thank you.

It's because GGE doesn't give alliances the coin rewards like they used to so now big alliances have to ask for tribute.

they do it because they can.

Well you can constantly be in protection mode and just ignore those big bullies .Unfortunately rv's are not protected by protection mode.

Eventually they will leave you alone bcs they will find other alliances to exploit them...

They make movies about "protection rackets" like this - you pay us X amount each month and we will leave you alone.

Sound familiar?

You may be surprised who the REAL Mob Boss is.

But, it is true.  This is actually an insight into human behavior.  There are those who will want to form group support, collaborate, work together, make agreements, and there are those who will take control and force others under their thumb.  In return, there are people who will accept this type rule, and those who won't.  Years of Dictatorship suddenly overthrown - or at least attempted to.  Years of collaboration suddenly taken over by an individual. This is seen throughout mankind's history, documented in the movies (Godfather and Star Wars are obvious examples)  and the history of the game.

Of course the difference is these are just pixel fires...…...
