@mirs- like I told another TFK member. It's respectable to fight for your allies. I'm very thankful for my allies that joined with LR in this war.
However, before they joined, I explained in explicit detail with lots of ss and hid
nothing from them.
When they came into this war, they knew what happened, as did all of my members.
I feel that, before committing to what may likely be a year long war, it is important to go into it with your eyes open.
It is important to keep an open line if communication. Be honest with your allies.
If you can't be up front with them- if you lie to them in order to get them to join, well, then they aren't the sort of allies I would ever want to have.
Furthermore, it's important to be honest with your clan and alliance about the progression of the war. Don't lie about strips. Don't hide strips. Don't make ridiculous claims about 4 tril stripped per day, as brood made in his separate newsletter to the alliance.
IG council and blazey have based this entire war on lies, propaganda, and misinformation. It started because of lies and IG council continues to compound lie upon lie in order to keep its members and alliances on the hook.
All I'm saying is: knowledge is power. If your real friend told you a lie to get you into a bunch of drama, would you continue to back your friend even though they continue to lie to you once called out? Or are you hurt, disheartened, and dismayed that someone you consider a friend, an ally, would treat you so poorly?
