If he gives up after one massing - he's not the right type of player for this game anyways...
How ever, if he decides to learn from this experience and get back on his feet. You can tell him to contact me for any advise or even some assistance.
I myself usually work in that way, shoot first ask questions later. It's just how it is in a war-game such as this one.
Best of luck to your friend.

I'll agree with you and I've massed many a small player in my time but 2 weeks is still a fragile time. Experiences of the game and impressions come from only those 2 weeks. But as many have said, we've all been in his position. It can show a strength of character to pick yourself up and move on. Then again it's all just a game and thus gravy.

I was massed raided and farmed and sat on for my first 6 months of playing. Why? I hit the "wrong" players mostly..the rest is history

In my first few months i ended up in a war with Esker, all it did was teach me that bad boys need a good kicking, and that when your little you need to watch where you put your finger.
The first thing you should tell your training alliance to do, is Not to hit certain alliances and affiliated people. I blame the Parents/Leaders for there neglegence personally.
