Because we were in the right for most of the time. We have been accepting rogue members and ZI'd members since the founding of our alliance. We might have not always been aiding such members, but that was our mistake.
But, here no one gave us the option for admitting to our mistake, and now we're sitting in the middle of a curbstomp because Hoo and friends didn't want to negotiate with us. If they don't want to negotiate with us, why in the world would we apologize to them now? We're not in the habit for begging for mercy and giving our enemies what they want when we're getting rolled. No. We can take it.

So basically, we were going to admit that we dropped the ball on this one and were willing to vie for a continuance of peace. But when we came in today, we heard that Hoo already gave the orders last night to go to war on us.[/quote]
You make it sound here like you were given a chance to admit it but you didn't. Just because your alliance has a tradition of accepting rogues and ZIs doesn't make it right. You must know that some alliance isn't going to take it lightly when you do it to them.
