Never said you were. I said that's what people would think if we only did this to Giratina and NLewis, the 2 people who raided constantly yesterday

This is not an appeal for those that participated in the recent raid on an un-named town. I have no idea what happened there, and its not my position to defend it. This is for those that had nothing to do with that at all, those that logged on restricted, with no idea why.
This raid yesterday did have a lot to do with it. It was generally agreed that raids like that shouldn't be happening, and that this is a better way to deal with it instead of a hard limit. If you disagree, I would bring that up with Droid

The only thing that has been confronted by moderators, if my memory serves correctly, is the fact that we stood in a single place for too long. Not because of multiple attacks in a day.
We've had that happen several times that people would stay too long, and many times some of them would either not directly leave or would come back soon after.
Oh yeah, and the RP behind it was pretty shoddy

Because the enemy is clearly stronger. If you do not want to give in, mine, fight back. Or even move to a safe town if you're a citizen. It's not that hard.
Example:
You organize a peace meeting where everyone acts normal and you have a good chat, giving the Southern Coalition some of your recourses to make peace. Bam. Done.
Your reputation with the Southern Coalition has increased by 9001.
Also, there is not a really good reason to ban them from raiding here, IMO.
I have tried to make peace honestly as much as possible. They use outlandish demands and RP propoganda to stop that from happening. I've had multiple meetings with them. When I met with you, it was easy. We said "Okay, this is beneficial to both of us", set out some terms, and everything was said and done. I've tried meeting with the Sunbeards. The only way they will do peace is for Coras to step done, or that we pay some outlandish sum of money.
It's clear they aren't all that eager for peace. The meetings are often made with them masked and armored. Is that how you meet with people? One meeting gone wrong, we found that many had raiding supplies. Seems like peace to me. Peace is something that should be straight forward, but the leaders of the Sunbeards don't want it to be.

I wouldn't care. I've got enough RP reasoning for me to not be worried about it

To say it is one-sided is also just petty lying, considering both sides are to blame for the conflict - but it is, apparently, only one that is well-armed and suited to raid. If you live in constant fear, are dirt poor, and can't get anything built because of constant raiding, then you may want to assess and act on the RP reason for them raiding you - not simply say 'I don't like that reason! Non-RP Killing!!22!'.
Though these raiders may seem to simply enjoy senseless violence, there is no reason they should have to clarify a new RP reason with a mod simply because they raid a lot. They [Southern Coalition] do, as of this moment, have a longstanding RP conflict with Coras (even if/when the Sunbeards, and the official nation halt support for raids) - which to any unbiased eyes should seem a perfectly fair reason to raid.
[Disclaimer] HOWEVER, I do not want there to be raids. I want everybody to be at peace and have happy, loving nations and live happily ever after without greed, violence, or noobs.
There's RP reasoning for a raid. Not as much as they did though. It was ruining my gameplay. I was pretty fucking pissed off. Also, where's the RP reasoning in mostly killing me? The main person in the group to try to end the senseless violence. Seems like random violence to me. Crash, if you want to tell me that attacking almost every 10 minutes from 8 AM to 1 PM and later is a good strategy, then you need to get your act together
