This guy came out of nowhere and has a power of nearly 88X the nearest player, Borg. He's too new to have any really good ships, even if he is an alt, and there is no way he could have afforded THAT many ships by playing normally, unless he donated, and even then, he would have had to have donated more than $100, probably even more than that, to be that high this early in the game. I would like this looked into, here is his info from rankings.

well... I suppose you could make him the equivalent of being in DDay, that way he is open to EVERYONE, not jsut those in range...  but yeah, I wonder how far it really is...  people in top 10 might actually have something to worry about from lower ranks for a change.  lol.  either way, top 10 only ones that have to worry, and even then, you have his ID number, and you can attack using really small fleets, so he is basically open for anyone to raid at any time.

ok... after seeing how quickly this guy's account got beaten SO badly, can there still be ANY doubt among you as far as the total extent of the damage one may be able to do to an account where the person running it is unable to take care of it?  (and yes, I am talking about vacation mode... again)

I saw one of the main points stressed seemed to be that freezing an account gave the person to much of a disadvantage over just letting it run it's coarse...  well, here is you undeniable proof it does NOT work that way, and will NEVER work that way.  freezing an account for vacation mode is MUCH better then the alternative.  seeing months of hard work go down the drain simply because life calls you away for an extended period of time, is absurd at best.

now... getting back to the point...  ya, I don't think it matters so much as what you send in a raid (raid mind you, NOT scout) as much as what he has left.  I mean, when I last saw him, he was at a base power of like 100 mil, with like 47 bil in stash, so I hate to see what he has now, especially now that he is off my rankings page, which goes down to like 20 mil, I think.  (not sure, haven't actually looked in a while) LOL


hmmm...  planet Free Willy?
