What is your playing style?

So basically i want to see how people grow in game and what their playing style is. Also which style they find the easiest and the best ways to grow. you can also share your views with other 'newer' players and help them grow as well.
Also how many turns you use, for instance for farming i use 12 attacks turns and if you think about it you will save a huge amount of turns over a long time and that can make all the difference!
Also, in wars some players have lernt to grow faster within a war then out of a war, if you think about it is an extremely useful thing! This is mainly down to huge amounts of raiding and farming; but yet i haven't figured out how

well i think raiding these inactive account is much faster and safer than going farming and provoking a war with sum1..
the way to grow in a war is by having a good supplier of attack turns and uu.. train most of ur spies and others into miners and get a bank capacity as high as u can... this is mostly about massing every1 and all.. u will be sure to find targets in the enemy with huge amounts so have a good covt and defence so they dont sab ur strike. and u go farming as soon as u almost hit the limit to ur bank buy turns and uu then train the uu into miners and get bigger bank. like that only u grow mostly..
try to farm ur own alliance so enemy doesnt get the naq. and try to find people in farming runs where these stupid people keep farming ur alliance but dont bank i, so dont waste time and hit them.

Yea raiding is the most effective way of growing and by far the easiest if you know how to speed raid and have the patients to find targets
With the growth in war best thing to do is to have a small defense of around 5 bill plus, even 2 bill helps stops people sabbing your weapons and you won't lose as many units when they mass you, protects your supers 
also have less then 100k trainned covert operatives because higher than that then it is worth it killing them

trying to do it through farming
once i have a good strike i chould be getting higher naq returns.
it's somewhat more riskier, but i'm willing to take that chance.
wonna get a good bank account so i can start buying uu's with the millions

Someone i know worked out that it is actually cheaper to buy turns and raid with them than buying UU straight off with naq. Just thought everyone might want to know that interesting fact 
but if you don't have time than buying uu is the best way to grow
Building a larger bank is a great idea, the more naq you hold then the more amount of turns / UU you can buy and it certainly makes life a bit easier

Sit still in my little corner of the univers and live on as peacefully as I can...
I sell my Ats and live with just enough strike to get ranked for gnr and wait.
(Though I raided quite a lot when I just started the game)

raidingis easiest... especially when you havea 50 page farmlist..
but if you can cnsistently get good naq hits when farming... then i think you can grow more in thelong run. when i go to farming mode, i put my profit straight to UP

thx for the input, appreciate it. it's good to remember, but for now i haven't being able to fully exploit the farming tactic so first i want to see those results.
however i would find it weird that with high naq returns you can't surpass the raiding concept.
consider raiding the save bet, while farming can have high risks. but then again i chose this race to own those lower lifeforms as our evolution dictates. so beating them up is just our way off life
