If this is right, multi accounts must be,being used to send the planets to & delete them,who told you this, or are you saying it?

yes it could be a multi account which is the most likely and that would mean you should get your planet back. But their is always the chance that it is just some weak member of the alliance trying to do his part and just does this. Very weak strategy if you ask me.

This trick is legal as the game stands now. I have brought this point up over and over to no avail. I actually suggested it as a way to do away with the planet update to begin with. And to be clear I know for a fact it has been used and it usually is used with a multi account. It can be done repeatedly.

Look at it like this. I choose to stop playing. I delete my account. I start a new one. Some friends give me naq to build a MS. They mass a planet down to 0 def. I take said planet. Then delete the account. I then start a new account and repeat the process.


Its easy to do and completely legal by current game rules.

This point has been brought up several times the first being within 2 months of the planet update release and nothing has been done about it yet.

But it gives teh new playaz a chance! :P


Agreed, stupid loophole that planets allow.


Personaly, I think we should revert the games rules to back right before raiding was introduced.

Tell me you lost a planet to a multi that deleted AND you had 80 billion defense on the planet. Then, I'll feel some sympathy although my response will be more like "Awww, poor baby. That's just awful. I'm so sorry your planet is no more. Now suck it up and go find a new one. " :lol:

Defend you planets better and you make it both unattractive and economically impractical to mass down the defense. The days of holding on to a planet easily with less than 20 billion defense are long past.

RobinInDaHood this is work both parts this is good wepon if somebody have good planet and attack you ,you can .... or I can.... :) and no matter how many you have def on planet because system is imperfectly and I can have weak attack and I can destroy your big def on planet and delete planet and you will must find new double planet or other planet sweetheart good luck:)

So thats a clarification of is it cheating or not, right? Cause its not a bug as I see....

Moving to cheaters section...

Simple matter is if your in the war, seems silly to do this. And not many are expecting to see their planets back either way, especially with the dammage that is being done on the facilities each time it is transfered.

I have heard of players bouncing planets also. Ouch...

Honestly RobinInDaHood is correct, each day the minium needed to protect a planet is going up quickly. Many strong players, bigger than I now have lost their planets, and not having a reason before to build more fleets do so now.

Many are over the 20K fleet level and some over the 30k fleet level. It is not cheap to mass a planet but it will be done when needed.

Did you not have the 24 hours to retrieve the planet? When the planet was taken you get 24 hours before the taker can get rid of it right? So you could have taken it back within the time frame. Did you not get the 24 hours?

If the case is that you did get the 24 hours, but did not retake the planet, then I have to say it is not cheating, unless you can prove the account that took the planet was a multi account. Which we all know is extremely difficult for admins to fully address.

I do think the idea stinks though.

TIP: Don't get yourself into a situation where someone would want to steal your planet/s.

Got to have been a reason for them to steal it, was ti a good planet? like stats or anything of it ?because right now the create a planet in market , with 100b u can get it to like 10b attack if spent wisely

you lsot a planet big wow, i used to lose all the time, no1 bothers with mine because all have 20b+ def and i dont exactly aggrevate anyone else and plsu not many people can see my stuff ingame so thats prob a bonus anyways sorry to lose ur planet but just find a new one and make it back to how it was before, with double def, what was the guys name who took it? maybe he ascended with the planet

I did this when i was turning prior, i ascneded with someones planet, but make a planet wasnt around then
