Do you even have the ballz to claim your countries?

You think it takes skill to suicide or it makes you great?

To the admins:
This joke got to end. A ton of old people returned these last sets to play the game again.
This fluffty behavior is going to drive not only them but any remaining people away.
If you want the game to die, just go ahead and shut it down,
or fluffing take measures to make this an enjoyable environment for old players to come back and stay
from time to time.

theres one recent suggestion on reducing suiciding without having much impact on other stuff

im sure theres plenty of other older threads around too

personally my country was kind of bad, but for the people who were in front of me its a bit dissapointing

There's only one GDI country in LaF and it didn't get hit, making threads like this will only fuel the suiciders as it has done in the past.

whats the point on being in gdi now?

you either do well and have a chance to be suicided just because your doing well

or you dont do well probably dont get suicided and dont achieve anything

also these suiciders could easily have suicided anyone in gdi given the nw changes

It looked like normal LaF whining to me. I assumed he was in LaF. Gerdler and Hash will be along to confirm, and whine more.

LaF makes it really easy for people to want to hit them. When I saw a party getting started and was immediately accused and insulted, what reason was there not to join the party?

I wonder if the admins could add some kind of military unit that defends against SS or PS?

The countries with big acreage could buy these units, so that people couldn't grab them so easily.

Obviously it would incur additional expenses, so a skilled player would be one that could balance the expense of carrying these new defense units, with the risk of getting land stolen.

I'm surprised there isn't already a military unit that does this...

i always wanted some airbourne troops and some flak guns to help shoot jets out of the sky. Maybe some artillery or mortars to rain from above. How about some flame throwers. I like the troops, but what about specialized troops that cost more to buy but create stronger defenses. I would like to see a different message when my armies win too. Your armies captured 1009 acres along with technology, cash, food and a portion of your enemies military units. So basically when you capture military units it adds an additional portion of their military into yours. Kind of like slave armies, which I would like to include spies being captured and turned into the capturing countries agents. This would change dynamics of the game for sure and could make it a little more interesting. Add all this to my christmas wishlist.

I also suggest LaF get a kill team. Im surprised you dont have a dozen on standby to kill these suiciders especially with 47 tagged players. I mean you have guys who are basically running turns all set and have no intention of breaking 100m nw. But having played in LaF, I know all too well how hard it is to get any of them to show up too a warchat.

Or worse, it could be viewed as a badge of honor or a competition. Besides, I don't see how it could be changed for only suiciders and not everyone. Thats seems like a ton of work for very little information. I'm ok if its applied to everyone though. On all servers more than likely.

It is interesting that here a day later no one has outed themselves. I have in the past understood why certain people suicide. That said I was warned by about a half dozen LCN people that certain LCN members who came back were attempting to infiltrate certain tags in an effort to create a server war. Going as far to use fake names to get access.

The one who was in stones was using the nick Havoc and claimed havoc's entire demeanor and history. I'm surprised it isn't actually him even now honestly.

Here in elders, we denied 2 applications of LCN members using fake or new names. Osloos applied to elders under the name xozo and never attempted to log in after I messaged his primary acct name. Deleted his country, presumably restarted, and without access to our tag attempted to get us pegged for it anyways.

I knew these guys would be suiciding this set but from where i didnt know. Nothing like having your identity stolen, eh havoc?

I'm not sure if that was the block of suiciders that hit us or that hit laf now. I think finding pp1 was one of our suiciders lead me to believe osloos and skywise were the other two, but there could just be more LCN suiciders than I'm aware of. I didn't take pp1 for the type until I saw his career numbers.

That said, FRetal (noted as the contingent of LCN players who have stayed to suicide) on team server was full of this nonsense in general, so there's at least 4 that were willing to be nuts on us all here. I don't see them acting a lot different on 1a.

This is all just a guess at this point though and I lack any sort of actual knowledge on it having not been online at 00:00 yesterday. I'll be watching the numbers today tho

Which mod did?

As of now, the mods can only delete per the rules located here: https://www.earthempires.com/rules . So first it would have to be in the rules.

When people throw the word griefing around, it makes me think of minecraft. In minecraft (at least a couple years ago as ive not played since the shield was introduced), not only were you banned, but a backup of your plot that was destroyed was restored. This is possible bc it doesnt really affect other players. Deleting the countries and banning would do nothing because the damage would already be done... And they would just make a new country next set to repeat and accomplish there goal. So, are you suggesting to some how rewind the news/actions of countries that griefed once they are deleted on the biases of griefing? I dont think you could, because as time passes, the game goes on with market, hits, etc. The whole server would need to be rolled back so that the actions of buying jets off market, or tech... etc by the suiciders doesnt benefit anyone else on the server. That would suck, esp if another player not paying attention to the server just grabbed 10k acres off bots, and would login the next day only to realize the whole set was rolled back to an earlier point and that he just lost the 10k acres.

Remember, there are only 100 of us though - this isn't Minecraft. If you started deliberately recking netters just for lulz you could end up being cast out

Now, it would have to be done in a way that allowed asymetrical warfare to be carried out as a legitimate strategy. There should be a place for terrorism in pursuit of a political goal.

It would also have to be constructed in a way that did not just blatantly hand everything to Laf. Laf are unsufferable fluffs that will certainly exploit any rule changes to bully smaller tags. There is a reason they get suicided - they drove all of their competition out of the game with two decades of cheating and backstabbing.

The advantage of our tiny community is that it's pretty obvious what the motives are behind most attacks. If this game ever grew that would get harder BUT the importance of it would also grow.

These guys have hit people who were in LCN last set and long time LCN members. Makes MD/Elders more likely.
