So far...in the thread we, the leaders of NA, made on Boxcar, none of our membership is agreeing with a 48 hour rule and after reading this thread all I can say is: If LAF is trying to enforce anything, they must have made peace also with the consequences that this decision brings. May I remember you guys that:
1. You had 25 members before, you can achieve the "experience" again.
2. A 60 member clan CANNOT, like EVER, enforce a rule for a server 10 times bigger.
3. A 48 hour retal rule has been tried before and failed "successfully"
A question, just for my own soul: are you that sure on the capacity of your membership to do well in this situation? Are they THAT capable to enforce a rule for 600 users of this server? :)

Moo to you too
If you hit me just after I send my stock to the market, I would then get your spy op, your allies op, then judge whether it's worth it to retal you myself, or send it to my retal team, and they would break you in about 3 hours.
Detox, you might want to check with your other 'leaders' because from what I know, NA has accepted LaF's 48 hour policy. But I'm just an IA guy, what do I know.
And if you are threatening to challenge the 48 hour rule and have some exchanges with LaF countries, I am more then welcome to retal you, because we will always come out ahead.
1) Yes, we were down to 25 before, but our core has not changed much since the start of EE, through recruitment, I have established a strong base of newbies who, I might add, have had some strong finishes in the past two resets. But unlike other alliances, we have old retired members who come back every reset like clockwork, atleast one or two show up and join back for a reset or two.
2) That is your opinon, and I can tell you that there is more then just LaF that is pushing for this 48 hour retal window. As other alliances have publicly stated they are for it also.
3) Was it the same group that tried it? Nope. You cannot compare other alliances with LaF.
I'm more then comfortable with our retal and war abilities if that situation arises to enforce a 48 hour retal window policy. It is not up to me, however, to say anything more.
