No, they’re not, and if I gave the impression that I thought they were, that was my lack of clarity. Rather, I was under the impression that the Sarum announcement included what amounts to ‘get back to doing what you’re supposed to be doing’. I’ve since dug it back up, and reviewed it, and found my memory to be incorrect. So on that score, muh bad, conflict resolved.

> This runs into the issue, Arrendis, that you have to be very careful about who you give your word to. Because keeping to your promises is very important, but if you are breaking some promises in the forging of new ones, or giving promises to untrustworthy or disreputable groups, then you are _also_ ruining yourself.

Indeed. That is very much a concern I’m aware of, and [share](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/love/202865/78). I don’t disagree that it was foolish and disreputable for the AmarrMil pilots to have entered into the agreement. I was simply wondering why a culture that places such emphasis on keeping one’s word would push to violated it, even _in extremis_. However, as I’ve indicated, that was a misunderstanding based on not remembering things correctly.
