You basically just said NOTHING and tried to be as insulting as possible while doing it. Poorly played.
Not insulting you. Insulting the stupid idea you presented.
I'd answered that same sort of non-logic, AT LEAST, 10 times before that point. I chose to ignore it and you come off like you've made some super unanswerable quandary, or I'm somehow afraid of it.
PUH-lease...
Again, you're telling me 12 people decide they don't like Faction A's politics against Faction B, create throw away accounts to join Faction C, to attack Faction B, and that is somehow supposed to cause Faction A some sort of inconvenience?!?!
PUH-lease....
If they wanted to screw with Faction A, they could have done so with their original accounts, attacking Faction A's allies/non-aggression partners.

As for the role-playing element, you didnt read what I wrote in the first place or glossed over it so fast and hard you did not take it in:
You have alt accounts who represent rebels, a merc unit hired to "fly the Davion flag" by another power in your government or an outside house.
You could have rebels and / or leadership elements in House Davion which is seeking to destablize House Davion. Reasons could be dissatisfaction with current leadership, sympathy to the clans, or just a plain old power grab. It could be another house seeking destabilization.
This fits in PERFECTLY with battletech lore. It is an excellent addition to not only the clan wars gameplay, but also the potential role playing elements.
EXCEPT, that in THIS particular case, it really benefits, THE ORIGINAL PRIMARY FACTION.
And why create brand new throw away accounts to do it? Why not take your original primary accounts, JOIN the Davion faction and do exactly what you're talking about?
Oh, no, that's not what happened. An entire unit created brand new accounts to this sort of thing. WHY? Because they new it was going to benefit their original primary account's faction. This wasn't RP, this was a BS maneuver to provide their primary faction some breathing room on a front they were losing on.

But you are happily glossing over the above facts. Mainly because you are just pissed off that some players are not doing what YOU want.
You presented NO FACTS, so there were none to "gloss over" you presented a THEORETICAL circumstance that DID NOT apply to the situation I originally posted about.
You keep wanting to make it some sort "oh so intelligent and super tricky RP element" when in fact it was just a BS maneuver designed to weaken one front of a faction they were having trouble with on their original accounts.
If you presented ACTUAL FACTS of the situation I'm posting about, please do so again, I keep missing them.
Theories are not facts, they are guesses.

And in the end the only reason to oppose what is happening is because YOU believe it should not happen. This is YOUR opinion. Other players can SHARE your opinion. But it does not change the fact that it is an OPINION. You have ZERO right to have control over another player. Escpecially when it is your OPINION that is driving your desire for PERSONAL CONTROL.
Yeah I have a problem with an entire unit of people creating brand new throw away accounts to joining one faction to attack another faction in an attempt to provide their PRIMARY account's faction some benefit.

I made a valid and non insulting comment / suggestion about what is happening. Explainable in a role playing perspective, which I think has value. You basically glossed over my post and/or didnt actually read it, then proceeded to insult me. This is how you operate by default ? I hope you have ZERO confusion as to why other players would not want to side with your opinion, much less want to operate under your constraints regarding the invasion strategy.
I insulted your ideas, not you. You are not your ideas, and again, after having responded to the same silly idea so many frickin' times already, excuse me if I get a little impatient at having to repeat myself.
