* Naq Gained= .000001
* UU Gained = 100


My ME...
Naquadah Stolen(1.0E-6) 6,234,620,952,231,162
Untrained Kidnapped(100) 1,252,251,202

I'm getting 120b ME for the 600m UU I raided, but I'm only getting 6b ME for the 3.1T naq I've stolen?

Trust me when I say that farming 1Q actual ( not doubled stat from old ME )naq is significantly more difficult to do than raiding 500m UU. I don't know what was wrong with the old values for those, but they were at least closer in value.

This is something that would be best to correct now before anyone gains any new ME... Also, it would have been nice if you actually corrected the values which were doubled by the ME bug so that we could all have our "actual" values to compare instead of the inflated ones.

yeah, because of the update to the amount of ME that naq stolen contributes

I agree with Max.

The amount of ME points for naq stolen is not mirroring the effort involved.

If your a masser etc.

If your a defender, it probably doubled

I actuallly disagree with changing the values and I'll tell you why.
.0001 per naq stolen
100 per UU raided
Those values allowed for raiders and farmers to also compete for the higher ME ranks. Therefore in order to have the top ranks, you didn't only have to be a warrior. It allowed more flexibility in playing style. Most of the top 20 ranks were your aggressive players and massers, but around rank 20.. you had BillusBallus who is one of the top raiders in the game. I was also around that rank and I'm known for my farming. If you change either of those values, you are saying that the only way to have the most ME is if you play one style of game.

And now the only way to have top ME is to build big defenses and sit and defend them.

It's actually probably more equal now. The advantage obviously goes to the defenders while their weapons are still armed. Once the weapons are destroyed, they stop gaining ME and it's purely ME gained by the attacker killing off the remaining unarmed soldiers and spies.

I tried to say that ME value for naq should stay how it originally was before the updates because it was more equal.

Some idiot suggested that UU value was only 10 ME per UU now... in order to increase naq value by 10X.

Actually it should have been the other way:

100 per uu raided
0.0001 per naq stolen

When the ME rankings actually update we can see better were everyone stands and if any imbalance still exists. Maybe the naq and UU values can jump up 25-50% but 90% of the naq farmers like us get is off of in-actives. Hardly "military" actions worthy of experience.
