That's my opinion... Sorry if you disagree.

you can have stats yes, and a huge account, ok in theory you can win a war coz you have more resources but i can promise you that if REK, JMX, Tearjerker, Tokko or Easy (yes there are many more but these were the first that came to mind) were at 100m army and you were 300m army and you had a 1m UP when theirs was only 350k that coz they have war experience they would still wipe the with you, no matter how much you were to rebuild, and the point that they also know it is just numbers a pixels and nothing more, which is the best way at looking at the game.


If this were not a war game, why give us defense and attack weapons, soldiers and planets ? why not give us pruners and ribbon so we can cut roses, tie a nice little bow around them and give them to each other ?

we have attack and defense weapons there for it is a war game

if you stat build and get massed, mass back like du5t1n from Squad UK did when i massed him for xmas, he massed me for New Year (good work lol).

so stop whining and start massing, ME has nothing to do about massing it is just to keep track how much you do it (whats yours at TJ, tokko, easy and willie )

the two above highlighted statements seem to contradict in my mind....
if it doesnt matter in the end then why complain about it? heck, i even made a topic about it way back when, it didnt get me anywhere. suck it up, move on, or even better yet, learn to play like them so you have some fun too

I have nothing to suck up since I am not complaining, it doesn't really matter to me if I get massed, I just rebuild and move on. I don't like the part about "Learn to play like them so you have some fun too". As I said before, maybe just massings tons of people all the time isn't everybody's idea of fun, and people who don't wanna do that aren't "Stat Builders" or aren't some other stereotype, or their play style isn't the noob way. It's fun for them.
