Now as almost every commander knows one of the jobs that comes with having officers is defending them (exception to this rule being the person i will tell you about), And so when my officer came to me saying that a certain player had been stealing his planets and asked me to talk to him.
I said I would address it and checked my officers Attack logs first to make sure that this was the case, before clicking on the player who stole the planets, and sending him a message :

"You have been stealing my officers planets, Now what your gonna do is let him steal every last one of them back, and we will leave it at that, and you can find someone else to steal planets from."

There is nothing threatening about that message, and some other players i have asked have agreed with me.

But back onto the subject. I Sent him a message and left it at that for now.
Not long after i sent the message, I was asked by one of my older (MSN)contacts from when i was selling UU if i had been attacked by him, after checking my logs i confirmed that i had been attack by this player(2).
Then that player added me to another msn conversation, between the player(1) who had stolen my officers planets, and the player(2) who had attacked earlier.

This is where the trickery and cowardice comes into player. Before continuing on with the story i will just explain how it is cowardly, and the trickery will explain itself.

The cowardly plart is simple, instead of handling this problem himself the player(1) had to bring in a larger player(2) to talk for him, Now some people might find this a usual act, but I am firm in the belief of handling every one of my problems myself, both in game and in real life myself, or where i can (obviously i can't rob a bank for example than be expected to defend myself in court).

Back to the my story. The 2 players were talking to me on msn, player1 talking more often that player2. I was trying to work out a peaceful solution, not wanting to start anything major, with player1. I havent got the conversation saved so i cant post it up here, but to sumerize a long story short, Player1 was angry and threatening me for about 10 minutes before player2 posted something along the lines of this:

"The forces of §partan fought back with all they could, and managed to inflict 3 damage on ???????????????'s forces!"

Ignoring the convo for a second or 2, i checked my account and found out that he had destroyed my defence while i was talking to the other player(1).

This little episode cost me over 100,000 super defenders and 86billion worth of top defence weapons, the ascended weapons.

The players who did this are

Player(1) - kramer - ID - 92488 - the planet stealer

and

Player(2) - Ancient God Anubis - ID - 42617 - the larger playr

Im not sure if this tactic has been used much already, but a warning for all those who havent heard of it.
I would also like to note that when i asked for compensation for being attacked, i got ignored.
I was also sent this message by kramer soon after the attack:

"while you were being mssed we talked of peace now is your chance for peace do not retaliate in any way"

I have yet to retaliate. But I have found out that the story was leaked around and that kramer lost some stats on the day i posted this topic.

I would also like to add that this post is the result of kramer refusing to compensate me, and I gave him fair warning that this would happen when i asked for compensation.

I would like to see what other players think of this tactic, so feel free to post away.
