hitting is just hitting someone with a large amount of naq say 75 bil plus over most defences is fair game , if you have that amount of naq out frequently you really cant complain about being hit i supose


but they do they complain and mix the word farmign with simple hitting :lol: :lol:

farming is on purpose while hitting has the sole purpose of making a good shoot of naq

i dont know cos you have a farm list , for the sole purpose of hitting good amounts of naq frequently , which also fits into the "good hit" catagory doesnt it ?

its just you say farming is on purpose, do you mean that you set them to war with the intention of hitting them frequently? and presumeably for good amounts of naq ? but surely this is along the same lines of just hitting someone ? but without the war but still to get a good amount of naq,

so your saying in a way farming and hittin are the same ?

(or dont i have a clue lol ) :)

You farm people for pitiful amounts, anything lower than 50bil on any defense, you should be shot. Unless someone is defenseless, its not very profitable to hit for anything less. Think, someone with a 500bil defense, large MS, bigger than yours, and you hit them fior 50bil. The repairs on your MS are more than what you hit for.

That means you GunZ. Watch your "farming".



Tetris, even I hit & farm some people for less than 50 bil on a defense... granted, my strike action at my current ascension level has topped out at 76 bil, and so the defenses that I hit are mostly zero,

with some small, even tiny, defenses...

but the ones with defenses are still bigger than the famous Asgard Order suggestion:
build 1 bil defense to stop farming.


...and yet, when my defense was 230 bil + mothership,

I would get hit at least once per week for amounts that would bring the attacker 25 - 30 billion naq, before repairs.

I finally upped my defense so that I could take out 22 - 25 bil naq and go on PPT without concern that I'd be hit for that same naq.


For the record:
my minimum "intended" hit fluctuates between 25 and 27 billion naq on a zero defense, (up to about 7 bil defense), and rises slowly there after.

on a 25 billion defensive action, (plus mothership), I'd want... hmm...

41 billion naq or better? --though apparently, from my logs,

I've hit for much less than that... :oops: ](*,)

not sure why, except that as one of my former farms assured me:
"don't worry about it. farming is messy."

sigma defenition to farming:

hit us once, fine
hit multiple ppl of us: we'll not be happy
do it on a frequent basis: we all know what happens then


we can understand a 1 time hit, just keep it ad 1 time ;)

Anything is fair - it wouldn't be allowed if it was not..as long as you make a profit and are prepared to get massed for it!

If someone catches me on a bad day - even for a fair amount, they will be massed, simple as that.

I'm bored of this:

"Why'd you hit me?"
"Because you hit a friend of mine"
"That is so unfair, he had 0 defence"

No it's not...that is what the game is about....I don't have to justify who I hit...at any time, but people in my attack logs and alliance logs are the priority.

It's all farming to me. Massing is the exception.

I don't "go hitting"; I go "farming".

As in - I farm the cows of their poorly protected naq. :smt047

And no, I don't care what your defense is in relation to what you have out. If I can make a profit from it - I will take your naq. :-D

Why would I farm if it costs me ?

Do not deign to tell me how to farm or how to play the game. [-X
I well know the difference between a profitable hit and a foolish one. :smt093 :smt093

If and when I want anyones advice on how to play I will ask you, if not I may farm you ... :smt036
