And so are many adults. But you know. If you have enough cognitive ability to play a game like this and even make a conscious decision about what region you wanna play in, you likely already have enough cognitive ability to be entrusted with recognising who the ***holes are and not.

2: You reside in Albion, an imperialistic raider region that invades founderless regions. Many people see raiding as a form of bullying, so you saying you don't want to associate with bullies is kinda contradictory to where you parked your nation. I'm not saying that all raiders are bullies, or bad people irl, some I know are actually really great people (Pepper and Rach and LD), but there are those out there that perceive raiding as an act of bullying. I'm a moralist defender, I see raiding as inherently wrong and that it should be wiped out.
I also happen to think that confronting dumb ideas is the only way of realising that they’re dumb.. and if what that takes to come to that conclusion is you believing in some of them for a while - that’s no biggie. That’s what being a teenager is all about. Making dumb decisions so you don’t do those later. Pseudo-religious snow about judging people by “values” they had as teenagers should legitimately result in the people doing so being ostracised from any "moderately grown up" discussion imho. All relatively normal/real people continuously develop and have conflicting “values” within themselves.
Woah... seriously? That must have been before my time. Albion is utterly dead.. and has been, for a long, long time....
Anyway.. yeah - sounds like a dirty thing to do. But I’ll be moving away once I find an active fantasy region.. in any case. I’m not here for OOC bickering and I’m not the kind of person who feels a need to force my “values” or holier-than-thou moralism down other people’s throats. Actually I’m such a tolerant and peaceful person, I don’t even fully gasp the reason behind “raiding” another region (apart from being bored and having nothing better to do in say.. real life... )
