Listen, I really don't like taking this stance. BUT WHENEVER you farm/hit someone for naq. You should be doing this little calculation...One that Kept me intact many a farm.....(Can this person kick my ass in the near distant future..) If he can, perhaps you shouldn't <nani?> him off...As any profit you MAY have taken...Will be lost tenfold when all is said and done.
Basicly.....It would be like mexico deciding to take back California while we're at war with Iraq......Not bright eh?

While I agree there - mostly - KitFox has a point. I personally have no respect for people who farm CoPs/CIA while they are at war. But I also don't have much respect for CoP/CIA members who are farming other, neutral alliances while at war. Doesn't the other side have enough of naq?
It's a matter of mutual respect.
If a member of CoP or CIA asks not to be farmed by neutral memebers/alliances cause their accounts are smashed and then farms the people he/she asked to stay out and not farm cause of the war - then what should the neutral player/alliance do?

My recommendation is to impliment a "low income " strategy, and not have naq out.
I remember NEVER having so much at 17mil naq in the open....I had almost no uu/miners...and made my income from farming..
I never got farmed during that time, nor hit for naq...Because I didn't have any.
Leave it out, and someone will take it. With the time i'll have on my hands when I return......Expect to see me in many logs.
hehehe, Iraq is BORING....SGW....isn't.

let me get this right when i said farm that was beening the whole of sgw's not just a few players, so not many have been hit more than once but i know a few have because they have told me, u want to farm COP members go ahead who am i to stop u, but it could end up being very bad for your account. i havent massed anyone outside CIA just taken their naq if anyone wants that to change, all they have to do is tell me and i will b more than happy to do it.

I'll chip my two cents in here. One of my officers is In the gulf at the moment doing his bit for the free world. so as result he often cannot log on for days at a time. Reborn, you, Hippyfool, Ra and others on both sides of the fence have hit him more than once.....
while I don't disagree with this and have not whined or complained about it, is it really necessary to raid 2 bil worth of Naq with a strike of close to 100bil or in Ra's case almost 300bil?
by doing this you seriously disadvantage players who cannot be online at least once or twice a day.
Quite often the damage from such a strike far exceeds the amount of naq stolen. personally I mad the mistake of forgetting to bank a week or so ago and got hit for 2 bil. the repairs cost me almost 5 bil.
All I ask is for a little consideration for the smaller guys.

I'm not saying you should leave them alone....after all it is a war game.
I think excessive force is the best thing to call it.
100+ bill strike against an army of 750k. is a little over kill.
If the USA went to Iraq and carpet bombed the entire country much like Germany did to London during world war two.....there would be condemnation from the rest of the world. that in effect is what's happening here.
by all means attack for Naq, but don't destroy half the account doing it.

It's pretty simple. Most people get confused if someone hits them for a billion or 2 naq and loses 80k units in the process. Even in mercs, thats 240M. Add repair costs and cost of AT's, you don't really win a lot. So people ask questions. If this distracts you from your farming, by all means, stay away from the link to your message box. If you act provocatively, expect messages, don't complain about them.
