GAAAARRRR!!!!! (Little Upsilon)

Absolutely agree with point above, and to expand that to account wide. Just logging in should keep inactive status if you don't go into one of your countries for months.

OK, good point, but also if you are active (have looked at other countries) then surely you would notice if someone declares on a country you havent looked at for a month. Also you get e-mail from the GM about decs. And there is 2 days of waiting for decs to become active. But yes I can concede the point.

You dont learn squat from raiding C3s, you would learn more from inactive if it had any kind of defence beyond a C3 level defence. I can also disagree with the raiding hindering learning econ. But kudos wendy for offering another side of the discussion, thats democracy ;)

Unfortunately you cant fight each other and gain assets anymore, (well, rarely anyway), not that I ever fought PvP for gain anyway, and I am not too bothered about raiding for myself, I have succeeded in the game to an extent. But there is a lot of newer players out here that could really get going with a bit of a chance to gain money/coins from taking it from countries that are no longer wanted.
It only disappears into the black hole anyway.

Keep opinions and votes coming please people, We'll make a tally after the weekend when everyones had a chance to read and comment.

Thanks... CC.

In a game-changing, epic twist,I VOTE AGAINST C3 RAIDS!

Take that M. Night Shalamamama!

Ooooooooh! Nobody saw THAT coming!

PWNZORPOTOMUS!

Agreed. But why wait for someone to raid? Introduce rebellions, insurrections, or revolutions. If a president doesnt care to look after one of his/her countries for a month, it should "revolt" back to a C3 with all it's swag and war level. THEN let the free-for-all begin.

Kill, Murder, Destroy! Haha.

After empire has been inactive for one month, all restrictions should be off. That's one way that I got started. It was a big help.

Border C why are you against the idea of C3 raiding? i've realized theres still some room to make some profit out of that no matter what the elite players of this game say.

I meant to say inactive raiding in an attempt to be ironic.

I failed and am shamed.

BUMP!!!

I think we need more input here peeps. Please ask your mates in game to make a post.

Fed leaders, please get your fed members to get involved, either way. Apathy & lethargy is not the way forward for anything.

I agree if the empire is inactive for at least a month we should be able to raid. Also the secured main should lose it securedness, to allow for some swag removal.

^^ What Keto said.

BUMP

Keep this thread alive

I agree. Ditch the war levels. For a player like me who's just starting its a handicap. Sure it'll keep me protected from aggressive player but I never had any problems from them before the war levels if I kept to myself. There should be an element of risk if you ask me. More fun that way. Another way its killed the fun for me is scouting for countries and planning invasions. Used to love that. Now why bother. Im war level 3 now and my choices are limited to active players prob.

WoW Woad way to appear new.

Err appear new? I dont follow. I shouldnt have a say because im new back to the game?

Please just stop while you're ahead.

Ok tuff guy. Your the man.

My countries less than a week old and im already getting threats. Brilliant.

One month inactive, game on. I agree with the above mentioned topic. Or at least the topic above the last few posts. Well, actually the topic when it was the topic. Maybe its back to being that topic. Maybe not. Not that sure yet. Just gonna have to wait and see. I'm eating some egg rolls right now. Not to get off topic.

Wow... first of all WOAD, I am a WO(MAN)

You new account is less than a week old.

There was no threat. No need to play the victim. I haven't declared war in months, and I wouldn't waste the bandwidth in a futile attempt to teach you a lesson.

Stop while you're ahead meant: Stop pretending you are new after making a statement like the one I highlighted. You speak about the issue as if it were in a past tense.

If you were only a week old it defies logic for you to have the kinds of insights about not having problems 'if you kept to yourself, becuase you have only been here a week.

To be honest, I have heard that same points and rationale regurgitated over and over by noob bashers defending typical noob bashing behavior, and you don't fool me.

If you wanted to pretend you were new and someone actually believe you, you would be thankful for war levels as all the other real newbies and you wouldn't be speaking as from experience about dealing with veterans or warlords. Nice try. Come again.

I would ask you again to stop while you are ahead, but I can already tell you can't help yourself.

Silence Roach!

Wow that last post by Wendy sure reminds me of the good old days. LOL.

WHO IS THE SUPPOSED WOAD ??? stay tuned after these messages......

For a woman you have a teribble attitude. Thats several times now you've called me a noob, now im a roach. For no good reason whatsoever.

Who's pretending? Your confused btw. Ive already told you im far from new at this game. I couldn't have been any clearer about that. Somehow you've got it into your head im pretending to be someone new? Paranoid.

"WHO IS THE SUPPOSED WOAD ??? stay tuned after these messages......" Stay tuned for what exactly? Did I miss something?

Here are my thoughts. Paranoid? I think not. It is a fact that players come back and come back under different names and just play everyone, have multiple accounts that they own to cause chaos in the game. Well, this apparently is how the game has been played for numerous years. I don't agree with it, and I, therefore, don't choose to play along with your lot.

What I don't understand is this.... you aren't a new player.... so what....what's the big secret??? Who were you before? I for one, might actually pay attention to something you say here, if you would present yourself as being on the up and up rather than being some great mystery... just state who you are.

If you can't say who you were before, well something is amiss in my opinion. lol Perhaps this is what Psycho_Honey is on about. Your defensive response and the things you say, pretty much sums up my opinion of you and your play ethics in the game.

Therefore, paranoid? ha ha ha ha I think 'intuition' and perhaps 'insight' might be more apt terms.

PS...what is wrong with you being called a noob??? did you not try to present yourself as such? ha ha ha ha (rolls eyes) We aren't stupid. Noobs (new players) don't usually come straight away in a forum and post insights into the game. The game is far too complex for them to even have an inkling on really what to ask or comment on especially during the first week! I'm sorry, I dun buy into you, as well. NO SALE. :-)

This is a question to lori and wendy, why give toad i mean woad a reason to give a response, why not just choose to not answer woads remarks, oh and yea i agree with this thread i 8th or 9th the motion. me thinks you like the Drama, watch TNT much!!
