Zormite doesn't just let anyone join their kingdom. Traditionally, that is.

I say this not as a kingdom leader, but as a former Emperor of Zormite on graal2001 who respected and followed the tradition.

If this was a true RP game, then why not (enstead of personally attacking individuals in these threads) take it up in the GAME. Have a problem with a kingdom... Do something about it in RP. Ghost Pirate did, when he ordered CP to attack Zormite for no logical reason, except his personal disatisfation with our government. That at least I respect! Given the nature of "pirates". But to remove your self from Role Play to attack another person purely out of "jealousy, spite, a lack of understanding... or just purely a dislike for an idividual seems like we're moving away from Game play and getting into "presonal issues" with individual people.
Who's to say nothing will be done in-game?

Zurkiba was merely pointing out the obvious contrary-to-tradition nature of Zormite - it was nice to hear that someone else agreed with my feelings on the matter.

But if you want to talk about GK2k2, (the game I am playing)...Just read the storyline on the main page at Graalonline.

All RP characters are referred to as "Graalian People" (not fish)
A fish-race can also be called a fish-people, which is still a "people." You fail to acknowledge the other definition of the word 'people', which means 'a culture'.

Final Hope:
Five islands were discovered by the Graalian people as they approached the shores. The people decided to rebuild their lives on these new islands. They built towns and ports, houses and shops. Soon, they had decided to reclaim the land they had lost. Kingdoms were formed on each island, in an effort to prepare for the approaching battle. These Kingdoms became known as Dustari, Forest, Pirate, Samurai, and Zormite. Each kingdom built armies and castles in preparation for war. It appeared that hope was once again restored in the people of the new lands...

Notice the description refers to "New Islands" which to me says Zormite is a "New Kingdom that was created after dustruction caused by the moon" not the Original Kingdom of GK2k1. And perhaps this island was named after ancestors who "were fishmen who evolved that evoled into the people they are today. What ever the reason(s).... at least let that be the descretion of the "Leader and members of that community."
Right. So the Zormite on 2k2 is supposed to be built from the surviors of Zormite on 2k1. Who were fish-people. Why, then, should Zormite on 2k2 not be fish-people as well? Why also would a fish-race turn into fishermen? That's rather close to cannibalism.

And just for the "Record" Zen you are a "great" leader, if you weren't I doubt that Zormite would be growing at the rate it is!!! And to the members of Zormite.... what a great bunch of people you are!!!!! Even though we may have our disagreements at times..... the real success of Zormite is in it's ability to "setlle its disagreements" in positive ways, without them leading to "player bashing" LONG LIVE THE ZORMITE REPUBLIC!
Zen's leadership capability in and of itself is not being questioned - what is being questioned is his capability to follow Zormite tradition.
