as you can see no one cared that 2 people burning thru the rubies had a battle that resulted in said results..granted 1 (me) used more regardless lets break it down to how we arrived here shall we..pulling quotes from the general discussion..
The big buck theory to start of server...

i know how that feels, i am ranked #1 and i cant even build a light fighter lol,
i wouldnt get used to it, its how you play later that matters, right now its just battle of who can buy the most rubies, but once it starts evening out and everyone gets the techs and ships flowing, then we'll have some fun
the pattin ourselves on the back before the server was even 24 hours old followed by the voices of reasoning

Actually, right now, moons are of no use. There isn't a fleet big enough to make using one worth while. Nor do I think there shall be one for a while.

In a new uni such as this, first person to get lanx is in the considerable advantage. Especially when you remember that everyone is so close together. By the time this player gets his/her first lanx, how many fleets will be caught as a result? Used right, itll be well worth it for them.

Must be nice to have the money to put all that into this game.
600 rubies cost around 30 US dollars. If this is too big of a purchase for you, then I suggest you stop wasting your time with internet games and get a job. That being said, there are plenty of people doing rather well for themselves without purchasing any rubies whatsoever.

Also If you just build up ur defenses you will get a moon no need to waste it on there when you can get it by being attacked.
How many waves of 50 BS are you willing to waste resources on at this point in the game to get a 9.5k moon that will likely be safe for at least a year? Your argument is not even wrong, it's ludicrous.

ALSO dont you think if he has a moon that it would be MORE THAN EASY to destory and maybe if ALL his friends fleet save to it...If his moon gets popped that means they lose they fleet right....so whats the point. HA HA HA HA be smart ppl
Shouting in ignorance does not make your ill-founded conclusions any more right. I suggest you learn to play the game before giving advice to others.
now lets dig even further to see the real reason all this is possible for those with deep pocket books to jump ahead in leaps and bounds..the soul reason for over powerment and was suggested it needed to be removed to keep a fair gameplay atmosphere regardless if you can/could buy rubies or not

have some questions to toss out..if anyone else sees i might have missed something feel free to add along
1)Will it be a normal speed 21 planet server?
thinking a reduced to 15 half speed of current would add some stratagy
2)Will all the current suggestions be carried over?
i.e. the new ships etc etc
3)Will all the current options of Zorg Empire Plus be there as well?
only change i see to keep a more leveled playing field is the removal of the Instant Build option.Sure trying to induce people to buy rubies keeps game running but fact is not everyone can afford them all the time.
4) will we be allowed to have accounts on both servers? don't see why not but just clarifying
5)Will there be any ruby awards for top 10 players?
Say every 60 days XX amount of rubies with a 1 time purchase requirement in that period to qualify for prizes
6)you do realize i am gonna pawn faces in that one too right?
Rhetorical question..of course you do!!
i will direct your attention to question 3..not 1 person spoke up to support that idea no debating or anything.
I have tried everything to promote fair game play across the board with each hit i told the story on how it could have been avoided and only the willing listened and a handful of people still have their fleets in extreme as a result that are not VVV members...
as a result option 6 of that question is in full effect.Just maybe i knew what i was talking about but who knows since new server is only a week old and i only have 2 big hits under my belt..yeah i didn't post the 1st 1 either..done all the educating i care to do on extreme server
