Stop trying to convince the poor guy to commit SGW suicide. It's not very nice at all.

His entire alliance would probably get massed with him being sat on for quiet some time.
If that doesn't classify as suicide, I donno what does.

And with people who mass for one naq hit (I am not innocent here either, as I tend to be more trigger happy, especially after I wake up and before I get my morning coffee...), it surely is hard to be a newbie these days.
I sort of can understand their concern. While I do not condine 'complaining' he does have a point that it's hard to survive, especially if he's small guy without decent alliance. Alliances do make difference, especially if you are respected warring alliance standing by their members.
I don't know how big are you mate, but if I were you, I'd just mass the offenders if it's in your capabilities. As someone said, people tend to respect those who can bare the teeth and stand their own ground. I met many awesome people in this game through warring and many of them are people I either respect or consider friends. Believe it or not, wars are possible the best way to make friends.
You have to accept the fact this game is mostly about war. You build up for better war effectivity and way to hurt the enemy, should the situation arise. You need to accept the fact when you mass, you need to be aware of fact you WILL lose stuff. But - if you balance your account well, you will be able to mass with great effectivity - ie you mass twice more of enemy's units than you lose, etc.
You need to learn to fight for yourself. Ultimately, when you hold your ground, you may be invited into alliance which will then guide you and hold your back, as they will see you are capable of doing so yourself and in time of need you would fight for your potential alliance members.
Good luck.

Because to much to protect his Income he get educated.
To little he cant hold it.
And well if he relies on NAQ to grow slow well then yeh what to do.
One thing is sure dont do following.
1. Mass back they would in most cases sit on you or make sure you dont mass them again by going after your friends, allies, officers and planets.
2. If they are from FUALL or TLE well then even trying to farm back would be stupid as again they can farm and educate you but you cant educate or farm them as that would be taken as a 1vs1 or war declaration by your alliance ending up you have to look at number 1.
3. Stop drawing attention wont help you and complaining wont either as they wont stop.
4. Get a Commander in TLE or FUALL will maybe help you as i recall TLE and FUALL has a rule about not farming and mass their members officers dont hold me to it as i arent sure as even i get farmed by TLE and i have a TLE officer *looks at Blahh you owe me 132billdone over 3 hits btw
*
5. If none of above works join a alliance in TJP or FUALL as that means they wont hit you and no one will actually dare to hit you meaning your safe.
Thats what i can think off.
Ohh and moved.
