Disclaimer on behalf of Virtus, due to accusations in this article: * France is kicked out of alliance after warnings and the last one was because they joint operation against our alliance. * Virtus never attacked introduced Arabian countries. We did let go all regions of Egypt to increase their gaming experience, when they promised that they will not let their country to be used by anyone to pass through. However, once we liberated all their regions, they broke their word and did let Colombia go over. Journalism requires some ethics and lying publicly is not nice thing to do. Regards

......

Kinyas we could argue forever about the official reason of the expulsion of France from Virtus, but not about the true one which is a weak amount of damages. However, this part of the article is not about what Virtus does with the newcomers, but what every alliance does.

Thats very difficult to get a country from zero to something. New players from babyboom are seduced by old players that are stupid, just like what happened in Arab babyboom, when Atlas put some people in these countries to go against Virtus. The problem is that for a new player doesnt have rivalry, and if he doesnt know how to play, he/she is going to stop in a matter of minutes. Maybe locking their regions for the first month of existence would be good, idk, might exist other suggestions about it.

Yes Malpicci, that was one of the points of my article. It is really difficult to attract new players, and even more difficult to keep them in the game and there is no magic solution to this issue. I think that in the end, you cant protect (and help) little countries without weakening big ones.

Didnt read, but Diana Haddad was a bot or an alt and so have been other accs i Lebanon :)

Bro this is the best edom article Ive ever seen. I might be new but Ive seen the battles history of Lebanon and I was wondering ... where is all those players now?!

I dont agree with few things in article, but one of the best articles seen in long long time, nice effort it deserves much more endorsements :) keep up the good work

First. In 9 out of 10 cases, a small country is invited to alliance, either to be used as proxy or try to block enemies from using it for proxies. Second, no WHO or anything will help. What will help is when new country is established or dead one is revived, admin to free their regions and put defense on them to not be attacked for 30 days. With generous bonuses on last shuffle, it wouldnt do not too much harm on already established communities. New ones will be able to organize and built their basics and also they will be able to fight through mpp and in rws. This will both support them to work for their homeland and will stop instant use as proxy from alliances or some independent players.

Tommy i agree with you but they dont have dmg power for bargin to have better position and simply have to join alliance.
