H? sieging small players nowhere near thier cities

Starry wrote: lol, nice try guys but this is a complete failure.  H? does not siege small players unless they are involved in hostile actions against H?.  There are plenty of small players in H? heavy areas that not only live in peace but receive help from H? members.    StJude, Borg and others deliberately started down this path with hostile actions (moving your cities into an H? heavily populated area very near an H? member). You dared us to respond with action and we did.    As for small players being sieged, you left out one very important fact; the small player accounts are alts of ICON players that were used to occupy those island locations.    You exploited the new player protection/Tenaril's move by suspending one alt, creating another account (which, of course, put it under new player protection) and moving that new player's city to the exact location of a Borg city that was under attack.   Btw, thank you to SC and other Devs that changed the rule so that new players under protection cannot use this option to move; you can thank ICON's abuse of this feature for this action.  You reap what you sow, you started this, we will finish it.

LOL, what a charade...

People were able to do that without the ability to suspend their own account anyway. All they had to do was send a petition to ask for the account to be closed then start another one. They didn't even have to wait until said account was closed as long as they didn't sign back into it. I don't really see how this changes anything.

Lets be honest, there's plenty of other exploits going on in this game and H has mastered quite a few of them ( I am not criticizing here ), sure this latest tactic is annoying I'm sure but seriously, complaining about it expecting the devs to change or remove the tactic is a bit rich don't you think? I agree wholeheartedly that the system is being used in an underhanded manner (can't keep you out of it things mana. Lol) and some sort of restriction needs to be contemplated but complete change is unnecessary. The negative food tactic was mooted for change and howled down in the forums by those who were using it, this tactic's ultimate aim is to increase your armies and armies are the main mechanism to maintaining power so no wonder it wasn't a popular idea to those who cherish it the most. Gm Stormy has correctly stated that lateral thinking is a precious gift of those in-game and there is no urgent need to handcuff this. H, you are being challenged it seems, now do as you usually do, improvise and overcome, if you can. Good luck to both parties.

Hmmm... Since H? is well known for being creative in their game play one would think they would not target an enemy for being creative with their game play. Can someone say hypocrite? Now type it lol.
