I thought the Knights of Dusk were supposed to be a whisper in the shadow.
Something on the background everything feared. But never saw.
Not some group that steals for their own, complains about towny and then uses it to protect themselves.
That invites members and promises them protection and then steal from their own chests.
That promises members to protect them, there have even been posts by the black sun stating they are not powerful enough to do so. Or wished to give more protection.
And now, you throw out information on the ground out of rage? You spew out promises like they meant nothing. Where is the honor of a thief, that your guild tries to achieve? You just lowered yourself to show that you think that you own the server, that you can do what you want.
There is no such thing a thief guild of honor, Or a noble Knights of dusk
You've just shown the real face of the Guild.
Ordinary thief’s.
These people deserve no respect, they betrayed us. I do not feel that it is dishonorable to treat these people like the scum they are. You join the guild with a promise to give your allegiance to us and only us, you break that promise and as far as we are concerned you are no longer a person. Our guild revolves around a motif of mutual trust and when one of our comrades decides to break those ties we can not allow them to do so without severe consequence.
As for the legitimate towny complaint it was very difficult for me to decide to add block-protection to Coranis. I personally would be overjoyed to see all block-protection removed. However my logic was this: If someone were to steal from us they would not put the stuff in an unprotected chest for us to have a chance to steal it back, why should I allow my enemies to use impossible magic powers while I myself did not use them? I truly hope that block protection goes away and people can raid Coranis as easily as we can raid thier towns. Until then I am going to use as much protection as they do . Perhaps when they are on the recieving end of all the impossibilities towny presents they will be more perceptive of the game-breaking nature of the mod and thus more supportive of modifications to or even the removal of Towny.
As for the undercover operations and the allure of the shadows we are trying to do our best to balance the public and private of the guild. For everything you see or hear on the forums a dozen things happen privately in the guild. Because of Towny (Particularly VIP plots) our double agents have not been able to assist the guild in performing raids, as a result we have become stagnant. Already guild members were becoming restless and desirous of some action, this has a lot to do with the conspiracies arising in the guild these days, they are the product of people getting bored. I wish I could provide the thril and excitement that a movie-thief experiences, or that I could match the impossibly fast thinking and quest-giving Grey Fox in Oblivion, which is what I feel some people expect from me. I am honestly doing my very best to make the Knights of Dusk the very best guild in all of minecraft but it's not easy to do. I am relying heavily on the support of everyone from the lowest Applicant to the highest Commander to make this guild achieve her full potential. In little more than a week I will be transfering my command position to a loyal thief and dear friend of mine, power transfers represent particularly weak and difficult periods in the guild, I shall not be able to return for nearly two months and as a result I am relying on those of you reading this who are in the guild to do whatever you can to keep the Knights of Dusk running, honorable and amazing. Its been A long few weeks but our guild is already more than a month old and applications are still pouring in, plans are still being made and injustices (Towny VIP) are still being fought. To all of those in the guild, thank you. To those of you who are not, watch out.
