i haven't been around that long in game, but hasn't hitting alliences that are at war in the past cause a widing of the conflict ? and say your X allience at war with Y allience, but friends with Z allience. Z allience could agree to naq hit Y allience under the cover of "farming" when all they are really doing is sitting on the the enemy and keeping them from rearming. Seems that with so many accounts avoiding hitting 50-70 of them realy shouldn't throw off your game.

Even though im not to "fond" of you, i 100% agree with what you said Eros! Its a war game, if you have 0 defence, then you free game. Even if you are in a war, dying of something or have RL issues.... Bottom line is, if you have no defence, your going to get farmed, raided and stolen from.

We might as well put "At war" as our planet names, maybe we wont get farmed then... :-D

I don't care if you vulture, as long as you don't mind being sat on... see, it all works out in the end. And it gives us something to do after the war.. (or during, or both during and after :-D )

Id say that most large alliances have the same principle, that is whilst at war those whome farm either side get noted and sometimes massed after the wars end

By both sides


personally I dont farm those at war because I would not like it myself, ergo if I accidently attack someone I give them there naq back

Its called RESPECT and I offer it to those who offer it back or in the first place.

BUT thats me

it seems u have to have a certain amount of morality not to hit someone during a war , that ur not part of , its common decency , u wouldnt run up to a pair of ppl fighting in the street and start stamping on them would u , same principal applies here , if its not ur fight why get involved by farming ppl that are in a genuine conflict ?

I'm happy to not farm people at war if the people at war don't mind not farming anyone else.

Seeing as I find that to be unfortunately untrue in life, I make it my business to enforce it in SGW :lol:

The thing that annoys me is when a player is in a war, and if they get farmed they have a cry and call the attacker a 'vulture'. Yet they still farm other players.

It's almost like they're untouchable. At least that's what they think.

If they have naq and I can take it, then I will.

If you hit others whether you're at war or not, do not cry if anyone hits back. Just because you're "at war" is no reason to make you immune to hit others and not expect to be hit back.

A vulture is someone who farms you during war because your defense is 0, and would not farm you if it were built.

A person that steals your planets during war is not a vulture, nor one that attacks your officers.

I will continue to farm whomever I want, war is not an excuse for you to get away from me. If I want your naq, and your defense is lower than my strike, I'm taking it.

Call me a vulture, and I'll join the opposite team in the war just so I'm "not one".

im not saying it right , wrong, good bad or otherwise. Balance happens weather you see it or not, Its the nature of the game. We all atk for naq we all get hit for naq. The degree that any one person is willing to attk is a very personal decision and when its reciprocated it shouldn't be a surprise.

Yes, that's what irritates me. I'm quite content to steer clear of alliances in war, but when members of said alliance farm or attack me, then I consider their immunity voided.

simple if we hit you and your at war tell us and we will repay...
if you hit us and were at war we will mass you

if your at war and you hit us you automatically invited us into the war against you

there is not ther options when it comes to our EMPIRE..

Then why has DD massed someone in LLS (a peaceful non combative part of FS) while FS is at war and you know we are one. Your comment is contradictory to your behavior.
