The Events Team itself contributes in perpetuating the Civ vs Civ and Faction vs Faction tension. The Kami Response at the wedding is a direct result of previous Event Team actions, notably the burning of Thesos. The only difference is that the Kami Response was conceived, organized, and run by players of the community. It interacted in a Lore-appropriate way with an event conceived by the Events Team, who did not bother to consider something like this might happen when pretentiously excluding a large portion of the game from that event.

If you want to condemn anyone, condemn the Events Team and condemn those who introduced factions and civs in the first place before you condemn the players who are following the path that was carved out for them by others.

I'm not a role-player by any stretch of the imagination, like many others, so I'll happily interact with both Kami and Kara alike on friendly terms. Still others are adamant role-players who conduct themselves the way their characters might behave, with varying degrees of "strictness" to remaining In-Character.

Both of those ways to play are absolutely correct!

Because I'm not a role-player, it does not give me the right to tell others who ARE role-players that what they are doing is wrong, and they need to play the game the way I want them to play, and vice versa. The situation is similar with PvP.

This game you signed up for has Faction vs Faction tension, and it has tension between the four civs. This tension will be expressed through PvP and through the events. The scripted events promote this tension, as do the Devs via additions to the game.

This is the Saga of Ryzom.
