How do you feel when being massed?

I made this topic because I don't get people who enjoy being massed and laugh while being massed doing nothing and watching being massed without moving a finger(those who manage to repair and anger the masser, which I fully understand being funny, I already experienced it in Q/main)...nor do I understand people who feel like if they were going to die (if not already lolz!!!) after being massed.
So I wondered how everyone feels and why do they feel so towards massing of their def.

I get an adrenaline rush because I know I got a war on my hands and me I love wars. Plus I now have a reason to mass them. Really I don't care, more glad than anything. Its not hard to mass me, its just hard to stop me from massing you :P

If i am online and notice an unusual change to my MS or lacking some of the defenders i imediately check the attack logs. If there is an attack, i spy on the guy and if he`s worth hitting, i`ll memorise him for a later encounter. ;)

If i am massed, then i switch instantly to critical and nox, repair, gather information. If i have the strike, i mass back, if not i build a strike and mass back. If i can`t build a strike instantly that will lead to the agressors massing, i will keep repairing and training troops until i remain out of naq. If that doesn`t stop him, the nox will, giving some precious minutes to think of a counter-attack method. ;)

Of course meanwhile i search for his ascended ID and will start massing him there. ;)

BTW:
I forgot to answer to the question: how do i feel about being massed... like jedi said, adrenaline rushes through my veins, the heart start beating a little faster and my reactions become faster.

I get excited because it means only one thing - WAR. And in WAR we do what...?

MASS! :sge

I like when I can repair and retrain that's quite funny and exciting but when there's new methods of "turbomassing" used damn I don't like it as I can't repair as you can't "turborepairing" anyway :lol: !!
I really enjoy repair part though!

No one can "turbomass" if you get on Nox.
Even the fastest "turbomasser" can`t mass you in under 2-3 mins at least, because they need to stop for repairing their attack. ;)... and i only need 1 minute to notice and think of what`s going on...

If I have been massed when I log on, I just repair what I can and get rid of what I don't need or can't use.
I've never been on when I have been massed.

Just like Warhammer 40K, "But, whatever happens, the universe is a big place and you will not be missed."

that about sums my feelings up...

and Nigatsu, my record is 1 minute and 20 seconds about massing someone (for def, about 1 minute for killing spies and I'm talking about person who wasn't on critical or any kind of def con lvl that'd make ur massing slower) :) it was done on quantum but it's the same :P and u don't need to repair after every attack hehe :-D

Love it if im online!

If I get on and im wiped... Im not that happy!

Course it hasnt happened in a long time... I dont usually care alot unless I just built the defense or im under 1M army size...

Id say mixed feelings... Being massed is fun to watch! :lol:

Its good fun, you get some good adrenaline...

Whats even better, is when you waste all your stored naq massing them back :-D

if I had just built the defense I'd be a bit annoyed, but then Id mass back instantly.

never been online while being massed though.

I dunno if it counts as massing when theirs minimal defense to mass and such but its a nice welcome back thats for sure.

Thanks Mordack!
