Well tbh, you hit him for 50 bil, he asks for 100 bil in return, 2x losses isnt extortionate, their may be other costs, super losses, weapon repair and emotional devestation at being hit, TWICE!.
Then you assumeably told him no. So he massed you, then you massed him I think you said. Then I guess you asked and he returned or he offered peace now at 1.5 tril naqudah. Which is about right for a general cost to getting massed if you have half decent stats. But then again I dont know his stats.
So is it extortion, i'd say no, you farm him, he masses you, you mass him, you want it to end their you can pay his losses.
Although that really is up to interpretation.
...
I think accusations of extortion should be saved for.
1. Those who mass you out the blue with you doing nothing to them, then they ask for naqudah to end their massing of you.
2. Those who message you saying "pay X price or be massed" with no reasonable justification for said message.

Re: Golden wing vs agrup
iam fairly sure that the cost of repaire for no def of 50 bill is infast zero ?
so i only really had to cover the cost of what i took,
so really he was saying that if i didnt give his 50bill he would mass me becuase the other 50 cancels out,
so he wanted 50 for nothing ?
sound like what you said asking for something out of nothing

Re: Golden wing vs agrup
yeah goldy but asking you to pay back what you took , or a reasonable amount more is fine in my eyes.
Dont get me wrong, I wouldnt pay it, Id tell them to shove it up their schwinkter, and their my farm and get over it. Doesnt make them asking for it extortion.

Re: Golden wing vs agrup
Hmmm
I'm thinking here
Perhaps , people forgot what this game is all about ...
wars mented to be fun , it's silly asking recources for a way "out" yet it can be false and its an easy way to scam ...
Golden , I say this to you soon he'll have plenty more ennemies

Re: Golden wing vs agrup
From what I heard (from him) he simply wants you to admit that his asking for reparation isn't extortion, no need to pay anything now.
And from the looks of it, clearly you weren't around during the golden age of the extorters, trust me, this is most definitely not extortion.
