Look. I was away for few days . I came back . I mailed leader "I've been away so fill me in with the diplomacies and stuff? " He said we only have NAP with Nubs and told me to noble mbig. Why on earth would I care about an NAP mark when a duke told me that himself?
Because it's the sensible thing to do. If you see an NAP mark, the first thing a logical person thinks is: we have a Non-Aggressive-Pact, I'll leave that village alone. It's not: "mmm can I noble that even though it shows the NAP mark".
Even if you are so innocent, which I totally don't buy, we can simply conclude:
1) you don't check the forums.
2) you don't check with your co's about nobeling
3) the duke doesn't read the forum
4) the duke doesn't consult with his council about what has been done
5) Experience is lead like a headless chicken and certainly even more since Beani left
...
Either way it remains a pathetic act, "innocent" or not, it puts your tribe in a very bad daylight as the players on Lizards.
It certainly doesn't help your case if players of the Lizard accounts acts all high an mighty after it, like this here:
