ABS tiger is buff, if I used barrier. But my barrier source was a pain to get. Additionally, I RARELY used barrier, and if so, it would be against 3+ ganks. You can ask any Fortress or Outlanders, or for that matter Villager and Empire that I fought alone. Also, I rarely used protection.
I would use barrier against potential deathblows from Villagers yes. But Iltanthal regularly sent me fleeing because I refused to use barrier. Same as various paladins.
Are there certain people who 'cry' Fortlanders more than most? You bet. But it's usually because those players had to deal with the Fortlander shit more than most.
FYI, I haven't addressed the Fortlander situation genuinely in quite a bit until this thread. Your impression of me was from a few months ago.
As I said before, Fortlander is just a general terms for a select few Outlanders/Fortress. It doesn't reflect EVERYONE in the cabals. But it does reflect most.
And what part of your post didn't I read? You're saying that circumstances dictated that you would join with others of the Fort, either voluntarily or involuntarily. I'm saying that that's a possibility, but regardless of the circumstances, which may include OOC connections, buddy buddy, RP, etc., the fact remains that you did join with others of the Fort.
