suggestion about the Nox Insurance Policy

i was massing someone today and he was on Nox.

thats really annoying because of the delays etc.. but he was ranked 1500 or something, so he only has a decrease in naquadah and no G&R losses.

so my suggestion is to remove the 'Nox Insurance Policy' to anyone whos not in the G&R area, or remove it to anyone who doesnt have G&R.

something you can do with it is this: it takes G&R away now, so if you have 10 G&R you can stay on Nox for 10 turns, until the G&R is gone togheter with the option.

this has 2 advantages;
1: you can mass people faster.
2: it makes people want to get into the G&R because you get this option then.

i know, the newer people will be losing something but its really not fair now, people in the G&R area lose something while others only gain. (it can also mean that the newbs want to get into the G&R more)

ps: i dont know if this has been suggested before but i couldnt see anything about this anyway, sorry if its already suggested :wink:

the only ones to gain from this is those that are already strong... and they dont need more advantages... so we dont think it is a good idea...

because every update inevitably hurts the little guy, and gives unfair advantage to the big guy :roll:

because this would remove the small guy's ability to use nox... and there should be no reason that the nox only protects those that are big... the nox protect everyone... just remember the sg-1 episode, there they healed all that died, not just one side...

I think the last 24 hrs has proven that.

And why would you want to make it easier to mass a little guy and harder to mass a big guy?

Still wonder why it cost 1 person 0 (as in nothing) another 1 G&R point and another 6 G&R points. It should be the same price for all. JMO

:lol: Progressive tax man....
><

<-- hates tax brackets

on topic:
you don't think everyone wants to be in GR range? {okay, not everyone, but many newbs} The only people who go on nox are newbs or those who are about to be massed...

This is their way of defending themselves when they lack the naq/resources to get a higher def action.

Anyways, I like nox when I'm not raiding...><
I get to laugh at the other raiders :lol:
