I think admin of the gate wars should put an attacking limits on because there are people who get attacked 100's of times by the higher ranks and when they get on they've lost a ton of power and def. just because of one person and most of the time there not taking any money they just keep killing for no reason. At least 2 attacks every 2hours.

you like destroying peoples hopes and dreams to every get more powerfull. you probley let your weapons probley almost get down to zero and notice i still aloud alittle room theres no reason to perposly take people defence units out of them. and if you wanna hert someone like thats what sabing is for you really shouldn't just train one stat. The ability of people being able to attack meny times in a row makes people make ghost files which are supposted to be against the rules are they not.

its called massing and if you don't like it they put in a thing a while ago that limits attacks on you. 1 is called realm alert. the other is Nox insurance. if you use those it will take longer to mass you.

ok, a couple of things. firstly, the game is not a democracy. the poll at the top will have no bearing in whether or not jason decides to implement ur ideas.

secondly, there has already been a limit placed. and that limit goes down the more protection you choose to give YOURSELF via ur insurance and defcon settings.

thirdly... destorying peoples hopes and dreams. ill tell you what, if you have pegged ur dreams on an internet turn based game you need to reveiw your priorities. attacking and massing is a part of the game, within reason, and if you want to play games that only follow your standards start one yourself and see how that pans out

I have to agree with the majority vote - there are ways and means to ensure attacks against you are limited - but it does cost income.

I'm sure that in real life wars it would be handy if the enemy was able to say 'You've had your 10 attacks against me - you're not allowe anymore' - but it just doesn't happen does it?

There are reasons as to whythis happens so much now (a lot of teh time without any good reason) - but to remove it is not the answer - to tackle the root cause is!

I agree

you possibly being raided and/or farmed and not deliberately attacked. Accept that you will be no more than a farm for many months to come until you have built up a decent defense.

We all know what you going through, we have all been there but that is the nature of the game.

i'd assume this thread is because you or a friend has recently been massed? for the first time probly too?
massing is perfectly legal, and its happened to all of us at some point, even the big guys.
if you dont want to be massed the defcon and nox are there to annoy any potential massers

Just think about when you want to mass someone, or go raiding, those 2 attack every hour and gonna slow you down a bit, it's a rubbish idea really.
