Never give up, Never surrender.
Its sad to see nations in TE give up just because they build up and lose all their hard work in a war. Its sad, yes. But its part of the game. I myself was beaten down to 2k NS this round. Shortly after, I had to face the immortal Roman Empire. But I'm still here, still growing, and never giving in to the oppression of foreign nations.
This is a message to all those who are considering quitting TE because of raids, war, or anything of the sort. Remember, its part of the game. Just as you all raid and consume other nations, the same will happen to you.
I personaly, believe in all newbies rights to independence and a fair shot. I have done my fair share of raiding and pillaging but at the same time I also try my hardest to help newbies and direct them in a way to secure their safety. Even if they choose another alliance. The more nations there are in TE, the more fun it is.
So to all of you; newbies and current players alike, don't give up if you are raided to no end. Just remeber this fact:
"As you sow, so shall you reap."
So go on, keep fighting on. Don't let a few raiders determine your destiny.
