As a result of our good diplomatic relations with [serenity] that matured into a Trade agreement, I got an idea that a Forum could be created serving as a Diplomatic Platform were diplomats and Administratores of both alliances could discuss broader matters on IK. Like some sort of Council. It could grow and other alliance could send their diplomats to the Forum. War and Trade issues could be resolved better. Not to mention small skirmishes could quickly be solutioned or santioned; etc. Would any diplomat be interested in creating such a Forum? Or, this just being a game, I´m probably too deep....

I think the idea has some merit.
It's not the U.N. where every nation, and then some, is represented. Rather, I would see this as a forum for the admins and diplomats of a few select alliances, alliances that share goals and means, and ethics if you like.
At current there is very little law and order in the IK world. Ar.se.holes like the Wraith alliance can do pretty much what they like to smaller players, and the mediumsized players rarely even hear about these things. It's a jungle out there.
What we could move towards is some more organised power structures, like the lose band of multihunters are an example of.
Except we don't hunt multis in the new council, we do .... something else. Rob the rich, protect the poor, and plan the downfall of Wraith. I don't know. But a forum like that, secret and only for the select few, could be the first step towards something great. Or not.
All I'm saying, let's not dismiss the idea out of hand. Okay?

I agree with Mads (what, again? ;D). Council is a good idea. I'm just disappointed with U.N, that's all.

If we should start nominating people we could invite, I can start:
Serenity, obviously. Xalthorn and Matteo, but I get the impression they are are a pretty egalitarian alliance.
Debello. I get well along with fearless, and he seems a decent enough guy.
VI. We have a man close to Chief_Druid. He is probably busy, but maybe a representative can be nominated. Then they can make good on their claim to crack down on bullies.
Sohei. Who in their new junta do we get along with?
All in all, we should probably keep the numbers of alliances below 10, ourselves included, or it will become the U.N. fast enough.
How is "Council of the Elders" for a name?

Inselrat?
That's not a rat on an island, but Rat is the German word for council.
