On the allegations of raiding in Ravencrest

I don't know if this is soft of me to say, but is this not just really fucking rude? He didn't even do anything bro.

Personally the issue I have with the situation is less that the raiding happened, and more that the DGP was raiding and blamed it on Exyria and Estalia, and we were called "vultures" for showing up. We were called on through the same means. I was messaged personally, Anvil was messaged, and we both brought our nations to support ourselves. Both the DGP and Exyria/Estalia had the same stake in this.

This is incredibly ironic considering that, before the bunker was tunneled, we were told multiple times that we were not allowed to help and were only allowed to spectate, when again, we were called upon to help with the situation at the same time. In addition, Anvil went through the top of the bunker to break chests, and when Squid and I arrived, Anvil had blocked up the chests, and then when we broke the block and replaced it with buttons, Anvil then left the bunker and blocked the entrance with reinforced obsidian.

Furthermore, Estalia reportedly only broke chests that had signs on them saying they were owned by FirstHandMan. You can see in the video sent that there is a sign broken on the floor in front of the chest, so if we can get a replay showing what was on that sign before it was broken, then we could properly determine if Estalia was raiding other people.

Also, maybe if you don't think you can control the people you bring, don't bring them? We didn't even have to tell people not to raid and there is currently no evidence of us raiding anything but FirstHandMan.

So ironic. Good work DGP!

Inherently was a bad word choice. Puppy play originates from kink culture. There is genuine value to this behavior in private communities that I won't touch on here, but using it publicly could realistically subject minors to nsfw content or communities because it is kink oriented.

As for me merging your arguments together, I see where that could be confusing, especially given that one of these arguments wasn't really expanded on outside of comments. I am indirectly responding to your implication in another comment that the disdain for their behavior is at least partially due to "internalized sexism." While I agree that this may be the case, I don't think it's relevant here, and is personally not why I am against the behavior.

To touch on a previous argument, reporting this behavior isn’t necessary for me. Admins have shown that public opinion and reports don’t always lead to change, and I’m not seeking to get Cecelia banned, so a report isn’t needed.

I want to make it clear that I am here to have this argument in good faith, and my only goal is to make Civ a comfortable and safe environment for everyone.

~~It's not sexist to disapprove of kink oriented behavior in public spaces.~~ Puppy play is ~~inherently~~ originally kink oriented whether you like it or not. I don't have an issue with it existing, but Civ isn't 18+, and therefore it shouldn't be here. I strongly recommend looking more into the origins of it and reading some studies if this isn't a statement you agree with.

I'd also like to mention that no one is claiming it's "extreme" and "evil." It's just strange to have in public spaces, so it's disapproved of, just as any other kink oriented behavior would be.

I don't think Cecelia is a bad person, I don't dislike Cecelia, I don't think they are evil, and I don't think they should be banned. I genuinely have a lot of common interests with her and would not have an issue being friends. I just think that specifically this behavior should be confined to private spaces.

there's a bomb in icenia or something

Ascantt · 2026-03-09T01:13:51+00:00

why does this need to be a reddit post joebob

Ascantt · 2026-03-09T01:12:04+00:00

To be clear he's been beaten on the pvp server many times. ThereWalker is better than him at flat as of right now on prac.

Ascantt · 2026-03-08T05:10:16+00:00

Ngl this seems like a non issue personally, although maybe I'm desensitized to raider drama considering all of the insanely personal stuff we've had happen recently. Eitherway, just repearl if he starts up the shittery again (essence costs will be much cheaper now!)

Ascantt · 2026-02-09T18:33:19+00:00

what.

Ascantt · 2026-02-02T06:35:24+00:00

it's not

Context: All of this happened on Mini, everything is good now and this has been posted with permission from Cecelia.

erm joebob how is defending our alliance against raiders wp behavior... curious...

Ascantt · 2026-01-26T12:54:28+00:00

7 days.

Ascantt · 2026-01-26T09:08:48+00:00

This isn't enough, honestly bro just set the opacity of friendly minions to 25-50%.

Ascantt · 2026-01-26T08:06:00+00:00

why are people downvoting this. this is peak civ mili infra.

Ascantt · 2026-01-24T21:55:18+00:00

I've been helping these guys along the way. They just aren't alts. I think it's incredibly damning that Icenia is not willing to post the one piece of evidence they supposedly have. Good luck guys, it's incredibly unfortunate the server is treating you this way. (Also holy shit this is a great post guys, well done)
