This is the only thing that upsets me about the whole thing.  I'm really 
hesitant to put this on here because I don't want it to sound like 
whining.  I often say it's Tom's game and his rules and I mean that and 
believe it.  Likewise if I get punishments under those rules I accept it 
and move on and if I have a problem email Tom like I'm supposed to.  So 
I'm going to go into only basics.

It is very saddening to me to hear someone say "he has played his 
character well".  He bought a region, was striped of his title and fined 
250 gold.  He then waited for someone else to step down, walked all the 
way across the realm and bought another title and seceded the city.  All 
of this with one message to the realm the entire time he was there 
(which wasn't very long), only talking about the fine and how will he 
ever pay it off.  Yet, for stripping his title I got a warning about it 
not being enough role play, inspite of using all the space I could in 
the stripping of the title page, which I believe is 250 characters and 
another message to the realm.  To me that just seems like both parties 
are not on fair ground.  I understand that people without power must be 
protected, but I expect someone role playing with me to give just as 
much effort as they want back.  This is not a matter of activity.  In 
the 15 minutes you should be able to send a little message explaining 
your actions.  So for all of this, I get reported and he gets a "he's 
playing his character well".
