I would just try to limit the amount of damage you can take. Turn covert into miners, sell weapons and bank the naq if you can etc.

There isn't much you can do unfortunately :(

i would have said leave it, but if you're the leader thats bad. do as cherry said and minimise your losses, put on nox and critical alert as well to discourage constant massing. if you disband the alliance you'll most likely lose a little respect from either your members or the massers, but if you stand up to them however you shall gain much respect (from me at least if noone else, but id say a good few people would respect you for holding your ground). advise your alliance to defend themselves too

and thats my 2 cents

You have done one good thing in posting this stupid bully message here. Whether they are joking, or just trying it on to see how far they would get........then they are going to get a bit more than they bargain for. No one likes a bully.

I am on PPT, but as soon as I come off I will "horribly horribly" mass them myself. And a lot of other people probably will too. ;)

I agree, they are fishing for suckers. They want to build their accounts without working for them, so they try to scare others into giving them resources. If you don't respond, they likely won't do anything as that would cost them (easier to find another sucker). At least, that's what a smart con would do. On the other hand, they are now likely to learn why pulling this scam is a bad idea.

Give us some IDs...my jaffa are fat and need excercise!

Fishing or joking around. Either way, ignore them and they will probably go away.
