Well mod...

I can't think of a method... but I'd appreciate that you keep this thread open in case anyone else feels as though they can think of a way to do it... I'm still brainstorming... but as you said... to enforce it... that'd be quite hard... still contemplating...

Similarly - if any of my members threaten someone with EPAC/GA over a single attack - or threaten them with mass retaliation if they try and retaliate - then that member is firmly told that that they shouldn't be doing that - and if they continue, they are kicked.

And I still cannot see how you can stop groups like the GA from existing. If you can think of a way (because it is after all, the topic) then please state it - otherwise I see no value in this thread continuing.


Give me a day to think about it... But since this is a suggestions thread... why dont you give it a little time to see if anyone else can think of a way to solve it... since this is a forum, a place to converse... no offense to you mods, but you all close topics way too quickly here..


Nobody mentioned closing it and I haven't been talking as a mod - but as a player.

And the reason you cannot think of a method of stopping things like the Grand Alliance existing is because it can't be done or enforced.

my apologies... I interpretted "otherwise I see no value in this thread continuing" as you wanting to close the thread.

if that really is the case... and it is impossible to do... then why doesn't it happen in every game? are you saying its impossible all together or impossible at this stage in the game?

Every superpower eventually gets toppled or implodes on itself. If you want make your own allience of alliences do, but i don't see any problem with the game as it is. If you keep your wits about you you will be fine!

The root of this problem is not the size or power of alliances, It is what draws many people to and many people away from this game. its called

"The human factor"

This is not a machine you can outsmart, its people you cant understand. As I have said before the only limits you can put on the GA is limits they put on themselves.
