The CAPs

The 50mil limits were put in place so that people could catch up with the leaders.

well as this war has shown is that people have caught up, and there is no where to go?

Further you want to solve the $$ problem, well give them something else to spend their naq on.

You want the war to end, well this might be a solution at worse it's a start.

Please post your comments, i know you will anyways for some, but i would like everyone to post please.

I'm voting no to straight removing the caps, however I'll post an alternative suggestion in another thread... something along the lines of every 50 mil army you have theres a 10% loss of uu coming into your realm (compounded... so 500 mil, wouldnt be the new cap.. there wouldnt be one, it would just be harder to grow, but not impossible)

I don't mind getting rid of it. Yes my measley 3mill army size isn't gonna be affected by the cap, but if those who work for it get there, why should they be limitted. I don't mind. :D

CAP were introducted 1 year ago, as a SHORT term measure to help players catch up.

As for the ascension CAPs, i'm for keeping them for the next 3 months and then removing them, but really that's not a major CAP as it effects everyone.

Posted an alternative to completely removing them here - http://herebegames.com/StarGateWars/vie ... 684#838684 Gives the newer players an advantage but allows larger players to grow :-)

And how is exactly is this a solution to our war? Again you go pursuing your partial interest claiming some graiter good heh...

I don`t mind... as long as you don`t whine too much after all the 50mil accounts start buying millions of UU per day and the price skyrockets to 1bil+/k... I can see the next bright idea now... regulated BM prices... lol

I have to admit I had something to do with that Ideea & I'll make it easier 4 you to understand ... the cap & the limmits were putt in place to prevent a few strong players from cumulating all the uu that they can buy ...what were they're efects ? we can see them now ...equally sised forces ripping themselves open on the " batlefieslds"

& I'm not talking about war - caus ethis is not war anymore ... we whent from fighting with huge strikes & defences to hits for 1 bill naq & massing 10 bill def ...the forces are WAY to balanced , & if there is EVER gonna peace after this war is over - if it will ever be ....we need to have people also working on growing & not just fighting & a couple of them getting strong enough to so that the rest of the comunitty respects SOMEONE PLAYER for their account

what are the prospects if we keep it up ? well let me tell you ..all that have reached the limmitations will start selling resources for $ because it's very hard to use it to acutually grow ; all of the player who were COMMITED to reach 75 mill will gradually loosve interest in the game & leave...the wholle server will gradually turn into a 75 mill armysise CLONE ARMY & only nombers will count & not personal valor ...

DO you want to play a server where everyaccount basically looks allike ? then why strive to get 75 mill - quit now & gain some extra free time :wink:

Wow, great idea, and if your army size is over 50 million make it so you cant use PPTs anymore so we can farm your juicy accounts and perhaps one day join you up there. :lol:

The caps should be extended over a set period of time so for example +25mill every 3 months
