Those of you who did forsaken your ascended account, caused the few who played it to suffer. Now quick ascending as a whole isn't too bad. Let me tell you all a secret, Mojo Rising did prophet though living god in a month. You know why he's the best account in ascension right now? Because he played his ascension account, and because he ascended after he reached LG+1.
Now the rates that you complain about. When you ascend your rates on UP cost to APP return is about 1:18. That doesn't count the naq you have to send up, the UU you lose, or the trained units, the mothership, or the spy levels. So 1:7 sounds a lot better than ascending doesn't it? That's where the rates came from.
And yes, if you raid DD, DD is going to slaughter you. So let's put that in the context of main. SVARUN, if I was to mass you today, would The Legion be massing me back? I'm pretty sure they would. It works the same way.

Ok, so 4/5ths of my army size is in resource planets. You can feel free to try and raid me. But I think you'll find you come up short for strike.

Im not sure what to think of your posts about this issue ...... on one hand im thinking your just playing dumb to make it look like your doing others a favour......
This is so wrong what you guys are doing your giving people a very tiny bit of your income and making trills in main for it very easily........im sure most of you have already covered all your ascension losses by now and with the thought you guys are not ever gonna get catched up its most likely a very satifying feeling right?
congratz on all you DMU sellers for *modded* up main too and still denying the fact that Asc is so totally unbalanced its just crazy ....... I can write alot more here but im just pretty disgusted with all you people ......
Right, so it's my fault that I'm profiting from cross server trade. Wouldn't this be much the same as cross server trade like say you know, psicolix trading chaos naq for main naq?
I played ascension, I worked my way up in ascension, meanwhile, while I was putting EFFORT, TIME, and RESOURCES into ascension, you were profiting from your quick ascensions in main. "Oh look at me, I've got a 4bill income now because I quick ascended." Meanwhile, I strived hard to get the best out of my ascensions, AND STILL AM. Yup, that's right, I'm top 10 in ascension
and I'm not done ascending yet. Maybe if you'd played ascension right from the get go, we wouldn't be in the situation, but since you didn't, and I thrived in ascension while you thrived in main. So after I spent all those resources ascending, I should get at least SOMETHING back, since descension isn't worth anything, I found other means. And yes, if you look at it directly, I've made back what I lost in ascensions, but let's look at it proportionally. My second ascension cost me 2mill UU of a 3mill total army size. I lost 2/3rds of my army so I could get better in ascension. Now that I'm a big fish in ascension, I should find a way to use those resources in ascension that I spent so much effort to gain. Now before you pull the CoP card; the CoP wouldn't have been so strong in ascension if you hadn't ignored ascension. "What you don't like is what you allowed because you refused to stand against it" (If someone can tell who said that I'll be thankful).
I'm not saying quick ascending was a really bad move. Infact, it's possible it could have been a really good move. Mojo Rising did a few of his ascensions much quicker than he would have desired but he's still #1 in ascension. What you failed to do was to play ascension. If everyone had played ascension then the prices would be rock bottom because everyone would be selling. Now, everyone that buys lowers their main resources and raises their ascended resources. This lowers my ascended resources and raises my main resources. For my small main account, I think it's fair that I gain something for my losses. You say I'm unbalancing the server, I say I'm bringing balance to it since it's been unbalanced since everyone quick ascended and didn't play ascension.
