Question:
Are not the Matisian people allies to the Trykers?

Just this once, I present these ideas with the utmost respect to all involved. With the exception of Kye's comments, everybody has been fairly reasonable. With that out of the way, here goes:

Don't be fooled by the usual shadow games played in these forums. Let it not be said that these forums are special in any way. Trolling, mud slinging, and flaming is just as rampant here as anywhere else and even worse at times. I see here all sorts of reasons for this attack and it seems to me that they are mostly hot air. There are two real reasons for this attack and both are quite valid, in my opinion.

1. Some OmegaV members attacked a Nexus member in Umbra. I wasn't actually at the location where it happened (though I was in Umbra), so I only know the details second hand. I can't say whether the act was just plain mean or one of retaliation for an aggro drag. Either way, if this is the reason for an attack by Nexus, so be it. I welcome the challenge in the face of adversity.

2. We have something Nexus wants. Nobody needs to explain that to me. I have maintained a certain amount of discipline while dealing with my fellow Trykers, but my allegiance has always been to my guild and to my faction, first. My first instinct is always to attack first and ask questions later. I never thought of Nexus as anything remotely bloodthirsty, but hey, more power to you.

I recommended and promoted the original attack on Whirling Stronghold after much conversation and what many of us thought was understanding with Kenshiro. There was never any doubt that our motives would be constantly questioned or that we would see plenty of action. However, by winning and holding Whirling, we have been able to share regularly with Ballistic Mystix and Aeden Artisans, which is more than enough reason to have performed the action in the first place. We were the first guild on this server to win an outpost from another guild and we have held it longer than any guild who won theirs in PVP conflict.

OmegaV has ever been a guild by the members and for the members. We truly appreciate and care for our allies. There is no question there and I think we have shown that time and time again. That said we always try to present our guild as a 100% unified front. While I did not necessarily agree with a PR attack on a Nexus member, I would never have let that be known in character and in game. Any of you who would not do the same as a ranking member of your guild probably do not understand what such a group is really all about.

So... Geniastrid, if you wish to push this challenge, I welcome you with open arms. I did try to bring our guilds closer together on several different occassions, but you wanted none of that, so it seems the glove has been thrown down. If you are up to the task of removing us from our outpost, then by all means, do your best. Don't expect us to back down or to fall over, though. We will fight to the death to hold what we paid so dearly to obtain.

This is the most respectable post about an OP battle i ever read.
I'm sure my words mean nothing, but I pay my respects to you Spiff for accepting a challenge and swearing to never back down...That goes much deeper than any alliance, faction, race, or guild..its a pure matter of pride..I hope you win now just for that reason

Glad to hear you found the payment in the end Zahan, would hate to think someone was getting extra duties over forgetting something like that

And Nexus et al won the Attack Phase in a very enjoyable battle
