Relevant snippet: 'enemy in the way of BattleRagers “in motion” of a siege'

I do not view you in the motion of a siege until you are actually close enough that you would label the person assaulting your group a defender. I would not label someone attacking a group of villagers on the outskirts of Galadon a defender of Nexus or any other cabal.

Until then, you are just a bunch of guys and gals trying to get somewhere. So I really don't disagree with anything in Thror's post, just interpret it differently on one point.

Honestly, Dest's initial post is a wise one to follow. If you have to think up this complex of a situational report to defend your actions, you might be better to not take those actions in the first place. (Even if they end up being valid later.)

Anyways, I think most of this was made clear by what I told Varaez (that got repeated in a post above). Still, I prefer to make my opinion perfectly clear as that appears to be desired.
