Hi Admin,

My planet was nicked by Bordakai,http://www.stargatewars.com/stats.php?id=88743
09:20 Bordakai Protected by my friends in AK lost 15 0 0 301,320,000 319,660,000 details

When 4 hours later i looked he doesn't have my planet anymore......
Are the new rules not implemented? I did not defend my planet heavily, because i thought i had 24 hours to take it back!

Very weird I think.

EDIT by Bazsy:

I moved this topic to game suggestions, since it ended up that is a suggestion.


Bazsy:
The suggestion is: When the planets are protected from further taking in 24hrs after someone took them, enabling only the owner to take it back, the taker still can abandon the planet, disabling the owners right to take it back in 24hrs and this ends up planet lost within the 24hrs. So planet stealers can still make trouble.

I suggest if admins wanted to make ALL planet retakeable within 24hrs, to solve this issue.
If they only wanted to prevent steal from the stealer situations, this is still a suggestion.

You mean this guy destroyed the planet? Strange that he could do that. But i wouldn't know why anyone would do that.

I'll ask his Commander Vedil.

Yep, it sounds like the person just wanted to make you mad by abandoning it.

Hey Bazsy, please do so!

This is maybe not a bug, but this is not what we want.....

now if they 'throw it away' .. well... that is their option too -- once you hold onto something, it is always your choice to fight to keep it, or destroy it in order to avoid the fight over the item .... never is it 100% sure though that you will not get a whooping just for doing what you did though but you at least ensure the fight is not over possession !

Btw, nice one on science and belief systems!
I quite agree.

Since i was very young I always wondered how on earth intelligent scientist could be 'real' believers in religions, believing in very specific nonsense. In our country there have been schisms in churches, basing on the belief that the snake in paradise really (literally) spoke or not....
Can you beleice that?

Yep it is hard to believe lol.

Back on topic, I have lost several planets just because people realize that they cannot get the defense up in 24 hours so they just throw it away :cry:

Well that can never be the meaning of the game. Planets are already very hard to defend for the poorer peeps in the game..
For my part, thet can throw this whole planet business overboard, I never enjoyed it. It only helps to keep the top few accounts so strong you never can touch them.

Any planet, after being taken, should be able to be abandoned at will. Sometimes you might take a planet that you really don't want. Being able to abandon a planet immediately also allows other players to find planets with their motherships.

For my vote, I do not want to lose the ability to abandon before 24 hours have passed.

Silly boy, my account isn't just about being able to steal any planet in the game. ;)

I have been known to steal a few planets, true. But I don't think that re-writing the rules to suit your particular need is the answer to the problem.

If planets are bothering you so much and you're spending so much time shouting about them, why not just abandon them and avoid the hassle? Alternately, I'd be happy to liberate your planets for you if you just can't seem to press the abandon button. :D

perhaps a sort of compromise? that one cant abandon planet until it is at least halfway, so 12 hour limit... not so long that it would certain that person will steal back first, but not so that it is too easy for people to ruin someones life by stealing and immedeatly abandoning...
