Re: what does the general SGW public think....

No. I once ditched 365 bil off an <1k army inactive. I understood and heard afterwards that someone was looking for some disappeared ME-naq :lol: Or that case that I saw an inactive with 25 mil out. It was that I had no AT at that moment... someone who's currently in D2D I believe had bought the UU. If I had had more luck, that 25 mil UU had been mine, and not theirs :lol:
Also, it'd be your own mistake to do that. It's always risky *grins*

I've seen someone dump 90mil UU into some from AK and raided it from them. Very risky though :lol:

what happens if that inactive account suddenly becomes active right at that moment, and trains those units :shock:

is it stealing? :lol:


Accounts over the raid limit, cannot actually raid :P

As for accounts over the 'trade' limit :D There is a risk in almost everything in SGW. If you're prepared to send it without surety, you should be prepared to lose it.

This is not a call for my inactive 'friends' to wake up btw 8)

Re: what does the general SGW public think....

Best thing to do is to make sure you know the account is inactive, I suppose.

I used the inactive account of a friend who stopped playing years ago.

Re: what does the general SGW public think....

I said yes before I read the post.

:oops:

Yeah, I'd say it definitely isn't stealing. It'd be funny if anyone had any stories of something like that happening.

Any account can send UU to an inactive account and raid it regardless of their size.

If the game allows a function and its not a bug then its above board.

If you dont like the fact that players currently above 217,671,233 Army (over the trade limit) can use this function to increase their Army to 326,506,849, then you always post why in the games suggestions section of these forums.

Re: what does the general SGW public think....

LOL not stealing obviously!

But darn would be funny!

I did accidentally dump UU into an account that had nox on. Not critical just nox.... so raided most but not all of the UU before hitting nox... that was a very, very nervous couple of turns :D
