Is that your spider sense tingling? They are fooling you, might want to get that checked out.

Far as 10% rip harassment ..whats it really hurting the receiver? they lose raid spots(if the even raid) and you get more res from DF then 85% of the player bases mines will produce in a day.If it is used enough it does provide a solid tactic based idea in that you are forcing someone to pay attention to overviews to make sure a real attack in that cloud of misdirection isn't coming.

Far as player opinions..they are like @ssholes everyone has at least one and sometimes two if you count what comes out of their mouths.

Far as cheating..whenever someone can devote time into these games they will inevitable be at the top.Time sink games always favor those who can put in the time,and especially those that can do both which is time and ruby purchases.I have been one of those that can do both at times..and we all know i don't have skills because i can buy rubies from time to time.

I find humor in people who call others cheaters and often bend rules themselves and exploit whenever possible non-written rules..like account sharing or passing.Seen several accounts swapped over the ages and most of the time they go to people who end up getting destroyed in the end for multiple reasons.They either get lazy cause they think they have a high ranked account they are untouchable,they got crashed on 2 other accounts and need to take over another 2 weeks later,and somewhere in this is someone dieing to bring the account of a dead man out of VM and retry their luck,(rather morbid but i can't control it if he does.)Some even try to pretend to be a nob and make everyone believe they are someone else but every thing they do and i mean ever thing is exactly the same as the 'old' player.

Bottom line i guess is what you want to do with your time here.Crying about it in forums may get like minded people on your side but the few with common sense will be able to read between the lines.There will be those that will hate just because you attacked them,those that will congratulate the attackers for putting in the effort to track them down.Those that will be nothing but forum trolls and those that put their money where their mouth is,and of those Both cause they earned the right by playing hard and can troll.Until they are stopped not much else you can do but take it or don't let the door hit you in the @ss on the way out.Growing 'MY' account from which grew from the ashes of nothing is priority one,helping my teammates grow if i can is Priority two,growing the game is someone else's problem.Everyone knew who i was long before i hit the million point mark..had your chance to test me through the 1st 6 months of this account when my only chance to play was thru a droid.I keep saying it and for the few that it sank in with ..good on ya..but the only thing holding someone back is themselves..names and ranks are just that and does not mean they are untouchable..everyone can be gotten too and obviously i know who 1 week rips attacks will annoy

Those are very good points you posted there, Death.... If i may comment on a few ?
First of all, i have the impression that you're talking to me there. Now , i don't personally know you, but i have read your cr's and i know you're skilled. No discussion there. But you're part of Chosen Ones right? So i think you're trying to defend you're mate, which is alright, of course. Nothing wrong there.

Far as cheating..whenever someone can devote time into these games they will inevitable be at the top.Time sink games always favor those who can put in the time,and especially those that can do both which is time and ruby purchases I understand what you're saying here,mate... Now i don't have the luxury of that much free time (6 month old kid, job,building my house) and where i live it's not possible to buy rubies. But i'm still in the top 25 in M without fleet... And those that can play longer and can buy rubies, if they reach the top with that, it's all good...


I find humor in people who call others cheaters and often bend rules themselves and exploit whenever possible non-written rules..like account sharing or passing. I do speak my mind , maybe i'm wrong there, but that's just me. I started in X, played 6 months and then started in M too , when it launched. But not having the time to play both server, i decided to concentrate on M and leave X. Then i tried Speed for a few days (3 or 4 days) , didn't like it (too many inactives) so i left . Missed X, opened a new account, didn't last long either. Just a month or so, due to RL. But I won't leave M , love it here... All these accounts (a total of 4), all new accounts, never swapped accounts,shared or took one over. Always started a new account when i felt the need to try a server.

There will be those that will hate just because you attacked them,those that will congratulate the attackers for putting in the effort to track them down. Got my fleet crashed 3 times in X by Gozar, you can ask him how i reacted (My IGN was Skywalker at the time). Cudos tot those who crash a fleet after all the hard work done. No arguments there.

Again, i know you're part of Chosen Ones and that you're defending the clan and your friends. I have no problem with that. Heck , there's a guy in A, JohnnyTman, who i like. He seems to be a nice decent player. I guess you are too, though i don't know you personally... Never said that the WHOLE clan is involved in certain matters. But i stand by my point, nothing will change that. Like it or not , i can't do anything about that, now can i?

Lol, all I can say is MEOW.

it was more less and 'mostly' more of a generalized statement to everyone.Not really defended and just more observation..the thing at which i thrive off of the most.I have had many ask how i do it..people want to go from rank 3400 to 1 in 1 week and it just doesn't happen like that.2 ingredients make up the best in the game..patience and luck..but if you are patient enough and know how to stalk someone(without them even knowing it) the luck percentage drops and the patience pays off.I can wait for months to make a good strike.You can hide in VM for 2 months come back and i promise i know where your fleet was at last.My favorite thing is to catch people while online..and the list is longer than more will care to admit but they will if asked.

Games like this will without a doubt pit ego against ego and many will be bruised before it is over.The idea is to have fun with it whether its the 30 mins a day or 20 hours a day you are here.Choke toke one on the chin from Cow in speed in what really was the top mono e mono battle of active people on server and didn't fold up shop..why?.. he understands the concept of the game.Defiant who i am 99.9% sure to be the oldest active player in all of zorg has taken many on the chin but yet keeps on rolling(hate to imagine what kind of a beast he would be had he still had all his lost fleets).Mentality is not something you can't teach,you either have it or you don't.thats why the 10% thing to me isn't that big a deal and thats what i am really defending.Misdirection is how many people have been hit and i know PK used this a time or 2 replacing a lame attack with a real one by recalling and inserting a large fleet to hit at exact times or original launch.Creativity is essential if you want to move forward and being unpredictable is safest way to survive here in any server.

Yes, i heard about PK's strategy. Nice one, that's another very skilled fleeter.... Btw, is he back? He was sick, last i heard...

far as i know he is not either of those 2 questions but it has been long time since i was updated and not 100% sure info was accurate but stroke was what was filtered my way so hope if that is the case he recovers from it

As do i...
