White Wolf is correct in saying that Dmtri has proved his point. Fundamentally the game has hit a catch in the system and one that we are trying to address in this thread. That "catch" is that the large alliances are unable to operate on the fifth ring in the sirius system AND be involved in the Conquest battles. By changing the system so that the Private Instances are by clan instead of alliance this would free up the several large alliances to not only continue to operate in sirius but allow them to also compete in Conquests to prove that they have worked hard to become the strongest and largest alliance in the game. the smaller alliances, such as the ones Dmtri is in, have been in essence "stealing gold skulls" because the larger alliances are having to choose one or the other and because the larger alliances have so many people to take care of, they dont really have a choice they have to choose sirius instead of Conquests. So it boils down to Large alliances that players have been encouraged to build up to become large powerful alliances have not been able to participate in Conquests and in sirius and we are asking that to solve this problem the system be changed so that the private instances in sirius are by clan instead of alliance. :mrorange: :mrorange: :mrorange:
