Allies is kind of a pointless system.It's just words on paper...at least that's how the system has become.
It used to be about really knowing the clan,and liking it to the point of accepting the other clans members,if that clan died.
I don't really care about it,I mean we have some strong relationships with some clans,but it doesn't have to be written down.More of "Talk the talk but an you walk the walk" philosophy xP.
