VM in the Top 5

Is freaking annoying. If you vm for too long in the top 5 you should be forced to do a UW on the exit of your vm. Teach you punks a lesson.

Just so you all know, if you VM in the top 5, you are coming down, sooner or later, when you grow enough balls to exit VM, you will be brought down. This I can assure you. You are only delaying the inevitable.

And it`s been discussed before and though nothing will be done, I`ll throw it out there once again. Those that VM, should not be included in the top 5.

*pours rotten fish atop those sitting in vm in the top 5

If you want to help in the fight against these empires sitting in the top 5, in vm, but can`t afford the money or patience to build up and sit there waiting for them to exit... please feel free to throw major dineros and so forth at them. They very well deserve it.

I`m sure 1 week of being in DP and making cash is enough to take him down no?

that`s like 1 week`s worth of turns that AM is forfeiting - he can`t do anything, dig/research w/e.

VMing building is probably not the way the game is supposed to be played..but it`s been around for a while and I`m not sure you aren`t the first person to spaz out about it. Just see it as a guerilla warfare tactic, lol...not particularly effective and it hurts everyone including the person doing it.
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
Yes it`s definitely more of a problem on slower servers. But it is still a problem on RT. And no it costs a lot of cash to build up there for them, and not all of us have time to just rebuild every week just in case they come out of vm. Only for them to VM again. It`s ridiculous and annoying and not how this game should be played. Fight your wars in the ranks, not in VM.
G grantweep
I don`t understand how this is a problem for a server as fast as RT...if anything, it would be more of a problem for slower servers.

I mean, can`t you just disband everything...click research for a week, then build up and own him hard when he comes out of DP?

You never win by VMing on RT imo....

And that is AM`s second or third time hitting vm for over 100 hours... it is not due to computer problems or anything like that... it`s part of his "strategy," the strategy of a coward might I add.
A Akoni
I just checked the top five all of them have over 100 hours vac mode some 300 i thought u was made at 48 hours or something but now i am agreeing with you they should not allow that unless they really are going on vacation or having computer problems
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
Yes it is BS to say the least and I am freaking sick of it.

*rants and raves some more
A Akoni
o dang yeah thats BS
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
I am not referring to people that take a few days vm and then come back to play. I am talking about people that sit in vm, renew their vm, end up in vm for weeks or months.... Such as the two sitting in VM up high right now.
A Akoni
i dont have problem with it if they are just in vac mode for about 72 hours a maybe a day more but no then a weak
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
Akoni, that`s a ridiculous suggestion. I don`t care about me being in the top 5. The fact is that them being that high raises the pr of the top 5, which effects the strategy of the people who are still playing this game. The people who are not playing, ie in vm, should not be allowed to effect the strategy of the people still playing. And this is not the only issue. Just one of them. Nobody is crying. Just pointing out facts. Like the fact that you don`t know what you`re talking about so your your opinion, as far as I am concerned, is null and void.
A Akoni
I agree with founder stop crying like girls if dont want them in the five then build your power lvl and make them #6
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
And yes AM did build up to high pr while he was in CC and then took VM... and he was kicked for such actions. We here at CC do not condone this type of behavior. We may or may not be the best at the game, but we have self respect and we are not cowards.
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
Well CC has never, ever, as long as I have led it, pulled any similar stunts. I think I have the right to complain of such.

You can`t compare BW, or anyone, sitting up high, not in VM, to someone in vm, just because they aren`t doing anything. I didn`t complain about kelti sitting at\near max pr for a long time, doing nothing. Because at least at that point others have the opportunity to take him down. This is plenty fair and very different. Thus I didn`t complain about it, instead I had people build up and take him down. But then we finally give him a fight, where he is threatened and he hits the VM button. If this is not a cowardly action, what is?

And I do have to babysit them, or someone does, or else they will pop out of vm and do some damage at a very inconvenient time. They are still a threat and I cannot allow them to just come out of vm at any time, without someone there to hit them, allowing them to 2x my mates.

All I am trying to say is it`s a lame strategy to build up high and hit the VM. It`s a pansy way to go about fighting, and I have every right to complain about it, and they deserve all the mockery that comes their way.

And I never said nobody is allowed up here. I welcome anyone building up high and fighting. But if your version of fighting is sitting in VM where nobody can touch you, then you disgust me and I will spend whatever it costs to take you down given the opportunity.
F founders
lol see what i mean, whats with all the crying about "we own the top 5, your not allowed up here" i vm built up to be in a position to help stop any more uw`s and if i remember correct when i first joined DOTV you guys vmed and built up in vm and then came out while i was offline and took me down. so kettle, pot, black. i didnt make a forum post crying about it did i? nor when you started with the cowardly 1 fodder scout then build and hit did i make a forum post crying about it. i just get on with it.
N nedflanders
says the person that basically VM built up to 70 mil PR on fast :P
F FOUNDERS
why not HB?
if you dont want to waste turns and resources and time sitting up there waiting for them to exit vm then dont simple as. its a bit lame dissing them when you are the 1 who chose to sit up there waiting for them. no one is forcing you too. AM was in CC and no one went up there to wait for him. it seems to me the only reason your complaining is cause you want the top 5 for your fed and allies only.

im not CC bashing, not this time anyway but BW regularly sits up high doing nothing. he aint in vm but neither is he doing any fighting. you dont see me making a forum post about it nor do i waste my time or resources going up to try bring him down as it would be a waste of time as he could just wait till i logged off and build back up again as he and others have done before and will do again.

if ppl wanna do this let them i say and if you dont want to let them then at least suffer in silence.
H HoneyBucket{HH}OP
Yeah not a bad idea Augustine... even 24-48 hours out of dp would be nice. Well doubt it will ever happen, so I guess we`ll just have to continue calling them names, hitting them with dinero`s and stalking them to smack them if they ever do exit their vm.

It`s just such a lame way to play this game, wasting other players time\resources to sit around waiting for you to exit vm, because you don`t have the balls to stay and fight. If you can`t play go into NP or vm at base pr. Don`t sit around taking up a spot high up in the ranks.

*HB goes on ranting and raving
A Augustine
as i have suggested if people double vacation mode for 1 week they should be forced out of DP for 3 days on the tail end of the 2nd one so people can hit them
I ImaVirusOhNoz
i threw like 10 at kelti and like 6 at AM :P
