I've never seen you in #CFTravian. At least, never contributing meaningfully to any discussions. I've never seen you do anything to attept to influence the alliance or the game (aside from begging for help when you were being farmed, that is). You've never shown any desire to make any decisions on behalf of the alliance. Before now, you've never complained that you weren't one of the decision makers.

The fact is, you weren't involved with this decision because you chose not to be involved. And since you chose not to help make the decision, how can you complain when you disagree with it? If you disagree with anything the "leaders" decide, you have two options. Either put forth the time and effort (and trust me, there's a lot to it) of actually being a leader and/or decision-maker yourself, or leave and find another group which is more in line with your opinions.
I don't personally care or that second option either, but if you refuse to help make decisions yourself, it's about the only alternative.
