I also think its a good thing that to mass him would actually take a bit of planning to get a team together like the good old days, better than today when any idiot can smash some stats together until eventually they fall down. Ffs one day your complaining about players being too easy to mass then the next its too hard.

Well Don , i think you will never get it , just like you wil never hit rank 1 with that atitude , now your in perg , do somthing ussfull in stead of hiding and mssg midgetman , ask him to come out and play , that gous for you to .
Il see what i can do to his planets while im here but i wont be out until the war is over. And rank means nothing to me...

Not really though - he can only arm so many attack and def guys - and once he hits that limit no amount of farming can get those two stats higher. Although he could, in theory, keep improving his ms and covert to keep up there, I doubt he'd have the long-term staying power of an account the size of STI's or Legoless or Blip or Juan or Elusive....or well, anyone big at number 1.
Infact its quite an achievement really....managing to get good enough stats with such a small army size. If you guys weren't all haters perhaps you'd appreciate the achievement.
That being said, I agree that anyone in say, the top GnR boundaries should automatically be kicked from perg - if you're that high then you should be able to defend yourself in main....

I agree its an achivement.
I said I have no problem with him being ranked 1.
I am one of the thinking that you should get booted from perg with more then 30 million units. And being ranked anywhere from 1-1000 being the same thing.

41.X M limit to enter perg not sure what the max is before being kicked. Draleg said 50M UU trained to reach rank 1.
All it takes is 1 person with an army size greater than the max perg limit to train up (or some of the massive army sizes to train less than 1/4 (or even 1/8 for the largest accounts) of the army they have) and no perg account can hold it.
Considering holding it only makes you a target not many people bother shooting for it and the majority of the accounts that could take it are in a war so it doesn't make much sense for them to try.
let's be serious should a 50M size account be able to hold rank 1? sure
under normal conditions (majority of major accounts not in war) would this even be possible? not at all
So do we fault the perg account for getting it? Or should we fault every account over the perg limit (mine included) for allowing such a small force to be able to hold it?

We shouldnt complain about someone from perg being rank 1, instead think of ways of improving it. Why not have a seperate ranking structure for both realms? Why not completely overhaul how rank is calculated?
At the end of the day who cares? its a number.

The point of this entire game is to have the best number, therefore, even if having the rank 1 doesnt truly mean you are the best, it gives bragging rights. Something somebody in perg doesnt deserve

well to be completely honest he does deserve it if he wants to stay there with close to zero income and have all his units trained, let him, i don;t see why this really matters, its more of an achievement than anything and in the end of the day, all he gets is these bragging rights, your just feeding his ego if you post all this garbage here

Letting him sit there would probably hurt him more than massing him. There isnt much more he can do with his account. With the exception of MS, covert levels and UP. Covert levels will get impossible to raise after a while any way as he would have next to no bank space and even with rank 1 he can only hold so much out before someone decides to build a strike bigger than his defense, go to perg and take his naq. MS slows down rediculously and there cant be all that much for him to farm in perg with large profit margines, let alone being restricted from trading, and with UP he would have to try and sell faster and faster and make sure he can always get on in time because the larger the UP the larger the risk of being booted from perg if he cant log in and getting massed.
Really all he has done, is make his account stuck where it is, with almost no capability to grow at all.

I think the idea came to a few of us (if we're thinking of the same thing), but to kill so many lifers....
