omg still only 5mil army.. you must PPT a lot!

I have to go to school, i go out, i cant get one for a WHOLE DAY (yes omg) sometimes, I dont have to PPT though. Its actually pathetic now...

If I had one wish from this game, it would be remove PPT.

And for the guy that said planets are bad.. your mad. Not only have you not given a reason for that, but its 100% complete **Filtered**.

And someone else said something about it only benefiting larger accounts.. well the few hundred peopel that started early in the game did alrite for theresevles didnt they!

Re: Remove Market PPT

it will also help admin with income. maybe if enough people like sitting free of being hit, we might be able to afford an extra admin or something, idk. maybe it will remove those adds.


while i enjoy ppt i agree. support or dont get ppt!

I'd also like to point out, market ppt was only implimented coz MGM was looking into admin's copyright stuff. Which has since been sorted so there is no real reason to keep it it was never intended to be a permanent thing.

Planets have done more to imbalance the game than anything else introduced. They allow players with 20 bil strike to have 120 bil strike, and thus farm for insanely low ammounts/mass with very few losses. They allow players to go from 75 k UP to 300 k UP. They have only worked to increase the gap between the small and big players, and into the future they will continue to enlarge it, simular to the way that ascention did the same thing.

Anyway, reasons to remove ppt from game:
-More farming, and hypotetically more wars(between who, I don't know.)
-Planet stealers/multies hide behind it(although it would make more sense to punish the multies directly...)

Reason not to:
-Allows people to have a life and still grow a little(It has already been pointed out ppt growth isn't really that much)
-Allows time for a player to rebuild/strike back when massed.


It has also been said that ppt slows down wars, but is that a bad thing? So it is harder to destroy everything in one strike, wars should last more than 15 minutes.

I think the good outweighs the bad...Unless you can give more more reasons why ppt is allegedly killing the game....

I do not support the idea of removing PPTs. Since PPT is almost the only thing I can use my MTs for, my MTs would be useless (except for turn trading) if PPTs are removed. However, I agree with reducing the limit to 1 per week. The lack of farms out of CoP is rediculus.

I support this idea 100%.

Its a war game - not a hide behind PPT and generate naqaduah game. As simple as that. PPT shouldnt exist unless youre on vacation mode. If you cant come on the game then put youre account on vacation mode.

2 days without attacks should be a bonus you have to pay for... if you want to strike back at a target do it while unprotected, its quite doable... if you want to go skiing and stuff... go do it :), just stick yourself on critical or something, the ppt advantages large players by heaps... percentages costs mabye 40% of nwe players income for ppt, costs mabye 5% of good players...

Yep another very valid point by lord zeus. PPT is faaaar to expensive for small players as opposed to big.
