Make Purgatory work the way you originally stated

I once remember you saying that purgatory would be a place smaller players could go for a slower style of play. Well, I'd like you to actually make good on that promise. As I see it the game-play is far from slower there! Planets being in full functionality as well the access to the market to create planets, buy merlin's also help keep the speed up in purgatory.
Due to MANY inactive accounts going there, it does not matter that AT's are slowly accumulated, because it is off-set by the ease of farming and raiding there. For example the alliance s.w.a.t. have experience growth rates in purgatory far beyond what anyone else in the main realm are experiencing. Furthermore with the accounts in purgatory, you've limited the speed at which those of us in the main real can catch up with "the big boys" because the once available AT's via accounts that have gone to purgatory are now gone! The inflation of AT's and their availability (even in the game market) are too expensive for most players to purchase (before people argue me on this point -- look at the average size of the player -- which are not the active people on this forum), so they're really no better off than if they had gone to purgatory.
To remedy this I suggest a few changes.
1) make planets not work in purgatory
2) don't allow G&R to be accumulated there
3) find a way to get attack turns or MT's from people in purgatory to those in the main realm.

1) make planets not work in purgatory
that would get all the bigger players out of purg leaving only the small
3) find a way to get attack turns or MT's from people in purgatory to those in the main realm.
Purg is no market
cause most people that go there dont play as much
so they most likey dont use there turns and should be penalize for it

Wouldn't that be the point of perg that only the weak use perg. Strong people have lost nothing in there
So it's about time to get them out of there

I like 1. the best, but maybe make a few adjustments, like planets work till you reach 5 mil army size, then they only give 1/2 the bonus till you get to 15 mil army size, then they dont work at all. that way small players could get a bit of an edge in perg, then 5-15 mil army (prolly still considered quite small) would get half a bonus, and 15 mil+ would get no bous so every1 could catch them a bit.

I like updated 1 and 2 but not 3.

1) make planets not work in purgatory
-When forum was implementing perg I tried to get it this way, but he refused. Too many people on chat argued against it, and chances are it will continue to be that way.
2) don't allow G&R to be accumulated there
-Getting APP is relatively easy anyway, so it doesn't matter to me much either way. If this was implemented I wouldn't complain, if it wasn't, then I probably wouldn't care either.
3) find a way to get attack turns or MT's from people in purgatory to those in the main realm.
-Given that there is not supposed to be any interaction between the two places, I have to not agree with this idea.

FYI im in perg atm.
1) i wouldnt care about it i'm here to recover, it would of course not be good for others and all but not much would change i think (except for ppl who put everything on planets, which imho is not smart)
if forum doesnt want or wanted it before it wont happen.
2) Why not? it isnt easy to get G&R, ppl are trying to ascend but the higher ranks are mostly filled with LG who have a bigger advantage at getting higher ranks then you, having a safer haven where to grow to be able to ascend doesnt sound bad. this would punish new players, how would they be able to ascend?? they cant compete (unless the yget help of course)
3) nope, trading is not allowed, the pricing may be going trough the roof well it was bound to happen and even if you get turns from perg to main the price wouldnt be affected that much, it would still keep rising.
but actually that argument doens count, simply put no trading in perg is how it is.

What`s the point in having a perg to protect little players if you`re gonna handicap them to hell lol?
Only issue with perg was the size and planet stealing, and that has now been fixed. End of story hopefully.
