when people are getting farmed they should get a way to strike back, like building up some sort of defence point system every time they get attacked by the same person, and if it happens to regular they should get an extra defence against that person to weaken him major. it happens in the series, when they fight enough they find the weaker spots eventually
Its to easy to find a farm and eventually the people who get farmed give up the game. so if they build up points for counter strikes the game will get more excited since the farmers have to attack others if they dont want to get taken down.
But thats just a fart of my mind

that wont help u if u are getting farmed over and over. it isnt that easy for someone new to find a strong co. lets face it some people look down from their ivory tower and dont want to loose their farms.

i have done the same - so ya i agree it's there own fault. they could come on here and post that they are looking for a commander. lots of guys would take them

Well i can understand that, when u are new to a game u want to try it on your own or atleast try to make it on your own terms. making someone your commander can be a big step if u are a proud person . u want to try it out for yourself first. but thats another discussion, this one is about getting a bit more of a balance in the game.
Ok nvm someone just explained to me how much more processing time it would take to keep it up for 10,000 users and how much it would slow the gameserver down.
Better forget it. crap i thought it would be a nice feature.

I love reading new Ideas. This one has some merit but very unlikely I cound see a bit more of a handy cap in the bottom percentages i.e. 15000 players give the bottom 1500 ranked little bit more on the modifier.
Im not sure if the extra scripting would be condusive to the current server, and would probably cause alot of glitchs as the server would have to keep track on percentage of times someones been hit by multiple individuals.

Dyneasty's Tips to Avoid Being Farmed:
1. Bank your Naq when you are done.
2. Build up your defense extremely
3. If you know you aren't able to be online very often, there is a nifty thing called Realm Alert which reduces your Naq Income per turn.
4. Tell Oasis to get a life
