Placio, there have been many players forced out of this game due to every Faction. The general population is nice. I was a proud Karavaneer from the beginning of this game until the last day when the server first closed. Some players chose to be very rude and take things too far. Some left. I stayed but joined the Kami until the same thing happened to me in that faction as well. I tried Rangers but again, I am not as good at RP as many here are so I didn't feel like I belong there either. I don't know where I would go if there was no longer a marauder faction and I'm sure others feel the same way too so it does bring enjoyment to some in this game, it is unfortunate that it did not for your friends. I couldn't be truly neutral if I was still at war with the other factions if marauder was taken out so where would I go? This may sound selfish but maybe others feel the same as I do, I don't know. With in game alliances there has to be a place for outcasts/exiles.
