FOR THE NOOBSThey apparently haven't killed anybody in 3 days so, this means:
I will give up the forums to save the server from the continuing ravages set upon it by the Candy TribeThey will not kill anyone who hasn't committed a crime.
They will not hunt my characters or destroy any more of my bases.
All other relationship's between us will normalize. This includes me not leading any
Revolution against them and passing on information of crimes to them. It also means them not attacking any towns of friends of mine for no reason and paying back any loans that they owe me.
I will PM 'The Candy Queen' to work out any details, immediately after I finish this post. This is a much more basic agreement than the one that the Chief and I worked out. If they break this agreement (which I fully expect them to do) I will be back on the forums with a vengeance within minutes.
I recommend that everybody build as much defense as possible in the meantime. 200 braziers would be the base line for them not attacking you. There really is no standing up to them in open battle.

Everything I've done since 'Yourgrandmother' quit has been to keep the Candy Gang rangering and to keep the server as the most populated one, on an incredibly fragile game. This has included helping free the Queen from Darwoth's dungeon through a direct loan, and offering to 'The Chief' to quit the forums if the 'Candy Tribe' agreed to stop randomly killing people on Sundays for wearing masks. What I didn't appreciate was how much YGM meant to the actual control over the 'Candy Gang' and how much he prevented it from becoming the 'Candy Tribe'. 'The Chief' and 'The Candy Tribe' are using my desire for noob protection and growing the server population against me.
I always knew that Wishy (Alloin, the Candy Queen) and several of the others had been a members of the Tribe up on Plymouth, but I thought he had moved to Roanoke to get away from it and he was the closest person to YGM, so I had hopes that he'd maintain the safety of Roanoke and prevent it's decline as the most populated server. I was wrong about how much 'Alloin' 'Greb' or 'Binks' cared for the server, and how much they actually cared for YGM's dream of Roanoke.
I also knew that Kit Kat' was a fan of 'The Chief' and had helped him to level up a character on Roanoke. With Plymouth almost dead and generally at half of Roanoke's daily population I thought 'The Chief' would get bored and start on a different server. I always thought it would be a combined effort with the Candy Gang on Jamestown so as to take on Darwoth. I was wrong.
This has meant watching the ascent of 'The Chief' up through the ranks of the Candy Gang until finally other 'MM Tribal Members' such as 'Paymaster Paul' and 'Khaz' were also seen on Roanoke leveling up guys. Now that they started calling it the 'Candy Tribe', this means that Roanoke is probably done for. I always knew that 'Kit Kat' (Binks) was a fan of his but I didn't expect them to turn on the population. There's really no competition for them on Roanoke. There are other 200-400 stat guys but maybe 1 or 2 per village, not 6-8 like on the 'Candy Tribe'. Most of those people are well known and simply want to be left alone to build and explore.
The
"City of Dreams" was really the only thing left that was a challenge to them. I had hopes that they would attack it while it just sat there in suspended animation. They decided to just wait it out and scout it daily for when it's townbell fell. This may be how they took the CoD's vault in the NW called
Plan B. If they have taken it, they now have 2 or 3 of the toughest vaults on the server. They'll do the same to the main city of the CoD if it does de-claim. I have seen some characters from the CoD on, but none of the main people. All of them are still on HnH.
When the CoD falls they will control well over half the legacy hummus on the server. I expect them to give the CoD to the Tribe as their main base on Roanoke so that they will have an impenetrable fortress here as well. At that point the server is done, and they can start forcing Treaty Payments. My only hope now is that they either get bored and quit or that the CoD continues to pay the bell. When that city falls the Tribe most likely moves in and the Candy Gang will be their protectors and enforcers over the rest of the server. We'll see it happen before you know it. Build defense now.
If it had just been me, I would have continued. They had scouted and killed one of the noobs at 'The Land of the Swamp Folk" and I feared they would've followed up on their threats to destroy that town and any other towns of friends of mine, even though I have nothing to do with them. I'm quitting the forums for those 8 brand new players and a RL friend at Pine Lake more than anything. I have nothing at either one of those towns. I have no keys, no citizenship, no stuff at either of them.
Good luck guys this may very well be the last time you hear from me.

I hope the Candy gang will put you out soon.
In a grevious, painful way. They'll show you the exact pain you've done to Roanoke.
Rainbow you have no idea what they've done here in the last month.
All Trust is gone and Everybody's at each other's throats. Any "Fun" we had in the market is gone forever. Any birthday parties like yours or dance parties are done.
To all the rest of you people that are supporting 'The Candy Tribe' you really need to look at what they did this week. They took out numerous small Personal Claim bases including one of mine that I shared with Dreth. They killed 45 people according to Martinezz including Rif Raff (Dreth's own town mate), Windwalker, Kathy and several others that I've known. At least 12 people have rage quit that I know of and the population did drop while this was ongoing.
I used to be their biggest supporter, but not anymore. They brought stability under YGM. They've brought chaos under 'The Chief'. He wants to see the server burn just like what happened up on Plymouth.
I'd like to apologize to Potjeh and the rest of you who've been attacked, when I defended the Candy Gang's supposed "Justice" and "Safety" at the expense of you're bases and characters this last spring. I was their biggest defender and supporter and I was wrong. I thought that would be the price of safety, but you were right, they're just bullies.
We've lost the ability to trust anyone in this game anymore. All events need to be avoided now. Fight Club and the Gift Boxes need to be stayed away from if you want them to not have your scents. Contact them at your own risk concerning crimes. Do not enter the Arena area. It's not safe anymore. Log off if you see them in the wilderness.
I don't think you've taken
Plan B yet. It's still called
Plan B which means that you haven't destroyed the town bell if it ever was a CoD base. I'll check it out again, but I don't think it's yours yet. Build something next to the Town bell and make another picture. Build a campfire next to any of those claim stone's and then light it so that we can see the center. I'll believe you then.
I don't know whether to take this as an insult or as a compliment.
I'd trade my little shared base with Dreth again for the death of your raider on Roanoke.
All of you guys may want to really think about getting back on Plymouth. This may be the best chance you'll ever have of hitting the Tribe up there again while they're distracted down here for the next month.

Your guitar playing is pretty bad, but props for bravely posting it for all of us to rip.
Goodbye folks.
