Personally I have 200,000 Rest are lifers (therefore cant be touched) cos my problem is i train my miners for a month then i either sell em or put them into my stats.. Hi Im jamie Im a stat builder and I have a problem Im the first to admit it.. Now saying that I dont mind the occasional mass on someone to make it fun, or war or something other then stat build, but seriously im only suggestting this as an idea.. Its not like Admin will enforce it...
And I dont think that the strong would get stronger because well theya re strong already and anyone with more then 10 million miners/lifers makes close to a billion naq per turn so they dont really have problems getting any stronger would you agree??
nice try but you aint getting any of my stats
now see i think your problem is your only thinking about how great it would be for allience wars your ignoring the problems for every other player
i know you think you arent but you arent one of them you cant possibly understand what its like to lose everything and not find it great fun like you do
im not going to bother arguing with you anymore its not going to get anywhere but it doesnt matter anyway

And like I said before when I locked this - if you do not have anything of value to add - then do not say anything - simply sstating 'it is stupid' does not SAY anything!hidden wrote:nice try but you aint getting any of my stats

You have used exactly the same arguments there that I have used against you when you and other habitual raiders keep demanding, more ATs because it is fun to constantly mass/raid.
So if you are allowed to make your argument for more turns for constant massing and raiding - because 'it is fun' for you - why can't Jamie make the same argument for his idea because 'it is fun' for him?
Sorry - but you cannot use this argument here if you do not heed it elsewhere.

I know why your saying it mate - and I do not disgree with what you are trying to say, but I could equally say that some of your ideas for introducing more turns could just as easily ruin the game for thousands of people as it would allow you, and other raiders, to continually raid their accounts.
The two of us could spend all day arguing over this point - so just let's not bother eh?

are you kidding i love arguing
my ideas wouldnt ruin thousands of players just make it harder for thousands of players to get onto the top 100

Actually I do and it is a pain... Trust me I do know what it is like!!
Quite frankly this discussion is over it was voted to be a bad idea 27 votes to 11.. So I see this idea dead
my ideas wouldnt ruin thousands of players just make it harder for thousands of players to get onto the top 100
I don't pull ideas from where the sun doesn't shine in fact I think about all these things when RL doesnt get in the way.. And im a very busy man in RL, this is one of my escape's and I wish to enjoy it as much as possible...

Well i dont think that the ability to raid Miners not lifers as some people have suggested would not hamper anyones ability to grow their account! If anything it would slow down the larger players accounts..
nice try but you aint getting any of my stats
I didnt ask for your stats I only asked for how many miners you have not lifers, just miners hehe
Now I think this discussion is over, it was voted as a bad idea prehaps becuase it wasn't explained properly, for that I apologise..

telling you how many miners i have will direct you to my ingame
and im amazed it got 11 yes's probably just multis
lol how would it slow the larger accounts because people dont raid them
oh i forgot to mention this would ruin all inactive farms as they wouldnt have any income
now back to the larger players well for the the GA would be the people no one can raid without getting massed so this would make them stronger because people arent allowed to farm them if this was in then they wouldnt be allowed to raid them which would make the GA bigger and stronger then beforeas they can raid everyone elses accounts
as i said it will make the strong stronger and make the weak quit the game
lol when you made this idea surely you knew how much slander and hate you would get against it why are you stopping because people arent agreeing with you as you knew they would
at least keep this open i wanna see everyone vote

No way. I'd (and everyone else, i assume) would hate to be able to raid miners. PLUS, the strong players could essentially WIPE OUT the smaller players...

Now before people go Jamie there never was miner raiding well techinally that is true.. However there was always UU raiding and before the miner update your UU was the only way to bring in naq income..
i can imagine times without raiding at all...
anyway, with the massing parties going on a lot of players would suffer while a few one would take advantage from it. this would give the ability to totally destroy an account and make ppl quit. so i vote no!
beisde: ppl come ppl go. i think we got 1K new players in teh last week as well.. so thats not a valid reason

Maybe raiding isn't exactly the right way to go about it. Cause that way it will be doubly productive to the attacker, wearing down someone's account and growing in the process. However, if there was a destruction attack in which mine tunnels get collapsed and miners just die (within reasonable limits) the idea may just stand without being too ridiculously overpowered.

I would think that a mine tunnel collapsing would be part of sabatoge or a special sabatoge.
For this to have any merit, lifters would have to be untouchable, if you really wanted to be safe you'd have to use unretrainable lifters.
Still, I dont like it.
