    Default What Is This Icon? Bad Language Warning?

    For the first time today, I saw this icon near my buffs. I have no idea what it means, and other members of my alliance are seeing it too. At times I'll have two of these icons.

    Does anyone know what this means? There is no description when I hover my mouse over it.


    P.S. Mod please don't move this to "Help & Questions." That section of the forums is useless unless you're asking basic noob questions like "How do I transport stuff."

    I asked the same question the first time I saw it....it means your alliance declared war within the last 5 minutes.

    Holy chit - thanks dachronic.

    I got promoted recently so I never saw that before.

    That's interesting. I wonder why only five minutes? You probably saw the war dec in chat and received the mail. Not saying it's good or bad, just hummm.

    Good question....as soon as your alliance declares war, the icon starts out with 5 on it and counts down to 0 and goes away. And when you put your mouse over it, it doesn't have any description at all.

    I'm starting to question if they don't hire helper monkeys to do the coding for this game and blame it on foreign speaking developers.

    This was one of the better ideas they had as it cuts down on the annoying war spamming. The problem is, no-one knew it was coming because there was no information released about it beforehand.

    Wait, you mean we now have NO knowledge of who is at war with whom? I mean isn't that part of the game knowing who is being attacked so you can maybe - well, um, you know, Do something? Shucks.

    No. I mean the restriction on declaring war was a stealth addition.
    Declarations of war are still shown, but an alliance is now restricted to one declaration every five minutes.

    OK, must be a quiet time as I haven't see any decs while on-line today. Still would like some kind of stats report option to see who is at war. Thanks!
