I have had it!  I am posting this for all of Illy to see.  I am no longer going to just bump players off my sov for harvesting without permission.  From here on out, you harvest on my sov without permission I will kill your harvesters without additional warning or apology afterwards.  I have had my sov repeatedly violated recently.  I am no longer going to be nice and understanding!  All of Illy is now warned, your harvesters will die and you will get nothing from me to replace them.  I soved the spots so I do not have to keep armies on them.  I pay for that spot every single hour!  

STAY OFF MY SOV!!!!!

Are you really suggesting that you're willing to pay hundreds of gold per hour to sov the squares, but cannot spare an extra 1 gold/hour to garrison the resource?

I'm not saying that harvesting on sov isn't rude. But it's such an easily and inexpensively solved problem that I don't know why people have it in the first place. Or I should say, I don't know of a good reason why people have it in the first place. Post a guard. Problem solved.

posting a guard makes sense for herbs, as they can be destroyed by the careless or malicious harvester. for the rest, it's less the cost in gold than the cost in time and trouble.

Mines can't be destroyed, so it hardly seems worth the headache to kill miners. I garrison my Iceheart only to prevent some goofball from sticking an army there and trying to claim it by force (and also to stop my 171 miners from getting eaten by polar bears). But if my armies lapsed and some rakish brigand snuck in and rustled some Iceheart, I don't think I'd have a hostile reaction, just a rueful chuckle.

I am referring to harvesting within 10 squares in general. Outside 10 squares put troops sure. But if a player puts troops within my 10 squares or harvests without my permission they lose their troops/harvesters.

Yeah, the only time this really bothers me is if 1) someone else tries to park an army on my sov (rude, just rude) or 2) if they send more herbalists than my rare herb patch has, thus threatening to over-harvest it.  Grrr!  But that rarely happens.

I respect each person's right to their own opinion. Since I am arrogant, I believe you also have a right to my opinion... LOL

Here is what I post on my profile...

Harvesting Code of Conduct:

1) You are welcome to harvest any resource near my towns. No sense it going to waste. If my harvesters get off their lazy butts and decide to do something, they may bump you. If your harvesters bring an army, my harvesters may bring an army.
 
2) Outside of my territory, my harvesters might be found gathering whatever is not occupied. Never will they intentionally bump someone who is already harvesting although it has occasionally happened because of timing, stupidity, or inebriation. 
 
3) If you have any conflict with my harvesters, just let me know. I will gladly send you the harvest. I prefer my harvesters out working for you instead of sitting at the tavern drinking my beer.
 
4) This is a game. If mutilating my cotter/skinner/etc. with your army adds to your enjoyment of the game, go ahead, I really don't mind. 
 
5) If you claim that soveriegnty, 100 X 100 squares, phase of the moon, bad movie reviews, psychological problems, lost pets, or a nasty disposition gives you an exclusive right to allow an unharvested plot to simply rot away, please refer to Code #3 or #4.
Finishing the Race!
