It's also explicitly part of the GDI. I made the same mistakes my first few goes on Express.

Generally you should expect 1:1 retaliation if you hit a human. And massive irrational behavior every 5 attacks on humans you make in a set. (Even if you stick to a single tap, once one hits you hard, the rest might dogpile on top.)

There's simply too much easy eating with the bots. [/quote]

Thou shalt not double tap thy neighbor unless thy neighbor has retalled your double tap with a quintuple tap.

If you're who I think you are, that wasn't a quintuple tap, it was a missile dump...very small dump.

Ko, being one of the oldest members I know of, I don’t think it was you I hit... unless you’re planning to make an immense jump in these last 24 hrs. But if it was you, I guess I’ll just wait for the imminent Kill U Later card.

I hope you're putting my 80A to good use ZZZzzzz.

I retal almost 99% of time near end of set. So it's probably going to cost you big.

I assume it is some sort of insult you are attempting. I really dont take notice of someone who has small man syndrome so badly that he has to post his conquests in an onlie game so that he can feel worshipped.

The GDI mechanic inevitably demands it :)

I wonder if a better mechanic might be that 0 attacks breaks your GDI.

Getting double tapped, I think, means you probably didn't have enough defense - thats kinda on you at least partially.

The biggest issue I feel, is the mediocre players that don't realise that just because they *can* break you, it isn't smart play to do so. In fact they know that being crap as they are and skinny, they are more likely to come out ahead. There is no deterrant to this behaviour and in fact GDI works in their favour more than anyone's.

Take that away and now you have proper accountability. Any attack on a human, invites their retribution however they see fit. That feels more than fair to me.

Under the current system the people who are troll-grabbing get to grab you one time, you can only retal once because you don't want to break GDI, then they get to RoR. So they are getting two fat grabs on you before you can effectively retaliate (because grabbing a skinny country, is *not* effective retaliation).

It should be no surprise that in a game where the mechanics are set up to favour troll-like behaviour, the game becomes full of trolls.

/2 cents.
