I think that this Council Protection needs to be changed. I like the idea of being able to go into CP and make a little profit from missions/encounter but I would like to see either 10% of their assets taken away, or I would like to see a TOTAL TIME LIMIT of 360 hours for the entire round. Once you leave CP the time is NOT reset and once the 360 hours is used then it can no longer be activated. Basically means that you have to choose when to use the CP more conservatively.

First we get neb, then we get reserving ships, and somewhere in there pl make pships too. now council protection. if this is gonna continue, therell be no way to take down ppls mission ships. i say remove their chance of doing encounter n missions. they got neb for that, and most ppl knows how to abuse it and send other friends into neb.

once in council portection mode you shouldnt be able to do anything what so ever. afterall its a vacation mode correct?

right now i could hapilly sit in CP just doing market gaining a few trill a day. now i stopped doing missions 2 weeks ago (personal reasons)and dont plan on doing them again till next round  and my base just plain sucks.  so going on CP for the rest of the round and playing market safely would be easy for me to do and i wouldnt be loseing out on anything!

But i dont want to go "HIDE" in CP as thats not in my character.

now u see, players like me could happily hide in CP with no real loss at all, this is why i think that CP should be a total freeze of the account. You shouldnt even be aloud to do market... nothing

I've checked the council protection yesterday, and there is no indication of any abuse of it, there were only 21 commanders in protection, all new commanders.

Also the bounty system seems to work well against those that would like to use council protection in excess, as if they have to watch their reputation or they can be bountied...

Please keep you comments civilized, thank you.

God Speed commanders!

First off davey, the remark you made about mid, has nothing to do this post. So why would you say something about it? Stick with the topic and stop trying to cause problems. But anyways back to the subject. CP should be only for 360 hours, I see a lot of players to hide in them while doing encryptions/encounters Ect.  Also what deathstar says not being able to do anything while in CP.  Should be correct as well or perhaps to some degree you could do a limited number of them.  Andwhen 360 hours is up they may not return till next round. That seems fair enough.

I have to agree that to be a proper poll there needs to be I like it the way it is.   However, I am of the thought that CP should be used as a vacation mode and anything that can make a commander profit or do harm to a commander while in this protection should cease.  with the exception of counters which at present you cant go into protection if have any.  But my opinion was made when Sir Emi placed the update.

well to take away CP. then emi needs to also take away alliance members from attacking each other. no difference in people staying in CP to be safe than what LOI does every day by nebbing each other to be safe.

If you take away the ability for alliance members to attack each other all midnight will do then is get his members to leave so he can do it???

he will always find a way to make a quick buck
