negative attack power bug

So while farming tonight(or morning) after turn reset this happened to me...

04:37 Thili Attack defended 15 0 0 -400,313,371 A Huge Amount details
04:37 Gojira Attack defended 15 0 0 -397,643,723 A Huge Amount details
04:37 Sldwys11687 27,242,621,563 Naquadah stolen 15 0 0 8,084,602 3 details

My attack power suddenly went from my normal small strike to a sudden negative ammount.
I have seen people posting about this and spy logs popping up with people posting about this phenomenon and spawning of negative attack mercs. Although I am not quite sure how this happened it might have been caused by clicking the auto attack too quickly in the turn lag? By quickly i mean i farm a whole page via the auto attack then wait for the lag to go and bank the naq. I also noticed the negative power of my attack grew with each hit, maybe something caused me to lose more units going farther into the negative? Hence i might have been gaining more negative mercs, wouldn't know without testing(which i did not do). I am only posting this in a new topic so it is seen for the reason that if you can grow this number via continued attack it can and most likely will be abused because the only way i got rid of the negative mercs was... well selling them. I'm not trying to tell people to abuse this but it should be know and i myself was not trying to profit seeing as i lost about 100AT to gain a couple mill naq via selling the mercs. Also if it matters i had 0 attack mercs to start with.

Hope this problem gets solved.
