The Nighthawks had to be members of Samurai in the beginning "again" because of system limitations.

Regardless, Nighthawks now have their own tags and also had their own sovereign monarchy. These are 2 signs of complete independance.

Edit: Here is a similar example to help understand whats going on here...

"Once upon a time a group of englishmen settled along the eastern coast of the North American continent. Eventually they established their own government and gave their country a name, thus establishing independence from England (given this was after a bloody war)"

Recently south-east of the Samurai island scouts found a new island. The Nighthawks, a group of members of the Samurai kingdom, settled down there, built several docks, a nice pub and a small castle which is protected by fortifications.


In your 'eventually they established their own government...' regarding US history misses a rather large and bloody revolutionary war due to just how contentious ownership of that settlement was.

That said, I think your post was antagonistic, and you may not have known of the friendship both wren and I have with Nayoko, and that there is no trouble arrising from this issue.


Now, regarding Ziro_Vitrudestec's comments:

Not every thread is a 'bash the non-rping kingdoms' thread. Hijack a different thread, this one has a use already, or better yet, go into the game and rp or something. I know I do.


Now, regarding Anu:

Black Cloak came and aided the Nighthawks yes....But the story which Padren told you is nothing but false, and it couldnt be any farther from the truth at that. Black Cloak was already on the island when Zormite arrived. As they got off the boats(which there were like 25 of them) me and tec kept slaying people 1 by 1.....yet their people kept repawning. Which I didnt really mind because I was making a small fortune off the drops.

Unfortuneatly the NPC server disconnects. We wait a while and I go afk for some food. I come back, and the NPC server is back, there are icestorms all around me, yet I have about 400/430 HP. So I begin fighting. I find Padren, kill him. I find Wren, kill her.

I take a swipe by the dock looking for Zoe and I see Wren saying "anu wtf, zoe killed you." I reply saying no...

I am now hearing it from Padren and the rest of the 30 people on the dock from Zormite who have been killed. I get pissed off and say whatever. I go afk cuz im pissed and I come back to the comp with people saying "oh, i killed you"

Well WTF, all 10 of you people killed me and not once did a person notice on the message bar? I highly doubt any of you killed me.

You just knew defeat was breathing down your neck.

Plus, another thing...If I would have died, I would have been warped back to main. I boarded the ship while it was in the water, and I said /leave to get off the boat on Nighthawks island, and not once did I touch a dock. My HP never got lower than 300, so I dont know what the hell you people are talking about.

Its sad when you have to cheat to win at your own game.


-Mark Arcaenis


1) we did not respawn.

2) You did die, you did respawn and I saw you myself get out of the game and sit on the dock. You told people not to attack you because you were 'out'.

- you do not have to touch the dock itself to have your restart location saved, it happens near it too, and there was a lot of fighting around the dock, I am sure you looped over it's edge at least once in the dodging and fighting.

3) I saw tec die myself, at least the text on screen.

4) we all had to deal with the stupid NPC server,

5) Zoe and Driken were never killed once at all in the battle, not one of the black cloak was still in the battle.

Side note: I know you were on the island before we were, I never said you weren't. You chose to fight in a battle that was not yours, and it didn't go your way.

Enough said, you lost, fair and square.


About the island:

anyone else have ideas about what to add or such?
