Stoping Leachers

EVERY one deals with em


i think most of em are players with a second account stealing naq (with no weps attack or def weps)

there sole perpose to get naq and send back to there main account


now most other times it is a general new user who dosnt know betta

BUT
This is stealing in my opinion i myself lose 5 mill a turn for officers i dont want (i do have mt officers set to 10% but i carnt stop the 5 mill a turn lose if im not on to boot them)

zaphor has had a few leaches as well and ima sure he has lost alot over time (these have been sabed by me as well so the leach dose not benifit much at all because the lose weps)

i was hopeing that maybe an implimentation of a NOT ACCEPTING OFFCERS BUTTON that could be turned on to stop ppls for joining (but not stop currnt officers from being an officer)

so far i have lost about 500mill (estimite i think ive lost more total) on leachers not much but still i cant aford to lose it

and i am sure higher playes that boot there officers when they go on ppt dont want it to be STOLEN (taken a resorce the player dosnt want to give) from while there on ppt because technicly that is what it is

now ppls Pay for ppt threw either ingame resorces or real money which is costly both ways

this is a real inportant matter only because alot of ppls are leaching i have had close to 40 50 on the last 5 days because ppls can see i have alot of men and think it is an easy way to get naq every one of em that had weps have been sabed for this but technicly i have lots the stuff twice as i have to pay to have them sabed as io am on ppt (only the men my sabers lost but still)

i would of kept my officers i had my 13 loyal officers but i could not afford to keep them for my goals i have

please post your opinions about this subject
(i hope that this can be resolves easly but i know yous will have to take time to work it out)
im sorry if this subject has been raised befor but i think it is important and ima sure others have to

am kinda on the fence on this one i dont think it is right to do on the leechers part but if your on ppt its a risk you have to take


yet again if i loan my sizible (cant spell that) uu pool to a friend i hope that he gets the most out of it only last night did one of my friends get a leecher (the ppt was from ascenion) anyway he ended up losing 17mil a turn for god knows how long



maybe all officers should be booted when you go on ppt for these reasons

1) it could get rid of the dead accounts boosting peoples up
2) whats is ppt its the protection of the asgard from the goa'uld and the like now if you are being protected hoe can you protect


*leecher goes to join under some one on ppt* this user is currently under protection he/she is of no use to you

end of the leechers and i dont think it would be to hard to implement

I concur. I didnt bother reading all of what you wrote but leaching is stealing and it has to be stopped. Is there anyone who would have an officer that they didnt want? having someone join you just to steal ur naq while ur on ppt is discusting coz they will just leave u afterwards n find someone else. An officer should be someone loyal and trustworthy not someone who is going to lie, cheat and steal and as Kylac said, most of the leachers seem to be a second account of someones as they have nothing, no weapons, no guys, no UP n where did all the naq go that they were leaching?

What it should be is that when a person clicks "make this user your commander" it should send a request to the user asking them if they want the person to be their officer. Similar to how it works when applying to an alliance.

i think the accepting officers button is a very good idea. it makes sure the commander knows the officer first and if they are activ players and of course it stops leaching :D

I believe this topic was brought up last year as well. I believe that the commander should be able to accept or deny an officer through the use of an "accept officer" button. There are certain times that I prefer to not have officers, such as when I am on PPT and need all the naq I can get during the protected period. During this period I naturally do not check my account often, and have been dismayed to find that an officer has joined without my knowledge, negatively impacting my earning potential.

I personally ask someone if I can be their officer prior to joining. It benefits me in knowing my income potential, and them in knowing my unit production. However, an implementation of a control would be a fix to the problem. I strongly support this feature.

How many topics do we have about this?

To the OP:
Not so recently, I learned about a magic spell called the Scroll of Search. It's an amazing thing! It let't me see if a topic or idea has been posted already. That way, I don't anger the mods or the other people who come in here to seriously discuss Game Suggestions with someting that's been suggested several times before!

(Now, where's my flag...)

and they're all on ppt. It looks like someone has signed up with those 3 accounts just to leach off u. Look at their army size, they have no UP. They are definant cheaters and something should be done about them and the b.... who created those accounts.

Edit:
Who the hell wants to allow leachers?
"1 vote for no" in the poll.

There is a guy on the first page, named "I WANT NO OFFICERS".

I sent him a message asking if he was allowed to have one.

Although I generally condone this sort of behaviour...


*BUMP*


This topic is worth bumping... it's been suggested many times before (mostly by 24/6 PPTers), but I belive it's a good idea, and it needs to be implemented.


Also, if this thread is kept at the top, maybe there won't be any more new topics about it >.<.

Perhaps you need to arrange with your friends\allies, for them to be officers during your ppt, and get them to send back the naq? Instead of wailing about leechers who cling on because you have no officers, and they would get 10 percent of millions and millions, have 2 or 3 or 5 or 6 or whatever friends as your officers, and get them to send the naq back to you.

Only someone who is guilty of this would say that they like leachers.

I am saying, if someone is making x amount per turn, and thinks leechers could be a problem, they get 2,3,4,5,6 of their friends to be their officers. The friends give the other guy their naq back, and if someone leeches, you know they won't get 10 percent, they'll get much less.

I think a better solution than waiting for the admins to make some no leecher rule.

Maybe try logging in as well, even though you are on PPT. I was on ppt recently, and was logged in almost as much as I am normally.
