(Reformatted paragraph titles, organized them based on RI Leadership which seems wise given how much their conduct changed between them)

This action would prompt Estalian players, [[Walkers]] and [[ThePayman]] to follow Bob_the_BuiIder's movements into the city center of neutral [[Nara]]. Bob_the_BuiIder would respond to the perceived threat by quickly boating back towards Rhode Island territory, the Estalians would follow, with their force being boosted in the ocean by [[Ez2Clutch]] and several other players, while some attempts were made to break Bob_the_BuiIder's boat.

A scuffle broke out on August 8th between players from Rhode Island and [[Titan Industries]] when players from Titan pearled a newfriend in junk prot, [[T0mmyShelby0]]. This would lead to Vanax and Adderral logging in and chasing Titan, Titan despite having significantly more people were unable to pearl the duo.
