Yep, having lots of defense just makes you fluffty at netting, it doesn't really protect you all that much.

TAN and I both suicides Laf very much for political reasons when Eugene and Candy were both very public about their desire to drive PDM off of the server. It wasn't the result of any particular attack or spy-op, it was retaliation for a year long campaign of aggression.

Griefing is different, it's when certain fluffters like the one that keeps spamming this thread deliberately ruin the play experience for random players because they derive entertainment from destroying other people's work.

I know the difference between political game play motivated terrorism and griefing, but I'm not sure I trust the dev team or mods to be able to interpret that distinction.

Get rid of the restart bonus, it was a horrible idea- let it die. That will go a long way towards limiting the damage griefers are able to do.
