2012-03-23 |  | Attack BUG that isn`t .... |  |
SO i was out building a fleet to do a bit of attacking when i was Countered rather nicely i might add and i lost my three planets
Then lo and behold I was attacked again and lost another 3 planets
Apparently sometimes when you build and are then hit you can continue building without knowing you have been hit or to put it another way... the game won`t stop you from building AS IT IS SUPPOSED TOO I lost 6 planets because the game failed to warn me , it failed to put up that attack tab you hafta click after you have been attacked so you dont build after you have been attacked.
The part that bothers me is nobody can do anything about it , just part of the game they say, well it SHOULDN"T be part of the game it can really mess you up. I`ve been getting planets and borders for the last few weeks this just buggers me and i dont have the energy to keep it going I have no borders left so im gonna plunder down to my ularges and my couple of good C1`s
I imagine that if i was a new empire I`d probally just quit the game , its things like this that keep/drive people away. |

And this IS another ATTACK BUG not the same as being attacked by 2 at sametime but it can have same results the loss of 6 borders
I tried once more to get borders but was hit again so I plundered everything else
So this needs to BE FIXED, it happens and it shouldn`t it can ruin empires
The problems with this game are the same as they have always been with NO ACTION to correct it , its why people leave and people don`t stay. |

99+ day(s) ago | I think the attack bug is not what you mention. Did you use anfits mod on firefox - then thats probably why you did not get that warning?
Anyway.. The attack bug as i understand it is when you get attacked by two empires the same second and both attacks is accepted by the game engine. This can lead to a loss of 6 cols but only 1 dp. |

99+ day(s) ago | its called entering your empire ID number into the forums advanced search, its how i keep track of frequent name changers |

99+ day(s) ago | THanks for nothing GC
I plundered rather than lose more planets |
Infernal
99+ day(s) ago | well if it is him, then he`s a real old name from the TDogs era. heh |
SagacityUSRR
99+ day(s) ago | i dont use anfits mod i build one stack at a time and in a game where planets are a premium that SHOULDN"T be a problem I shouldnt hafta worry about the game screwing me over
Whatever I`ll just go back to being a pain in the rear end less planets more attacks :)
Everyone enjoy |

99+ day(s) ago | I had that problem the other day! In fact, it happens to me alot... I lost a good U fert because of it. pissed me off but I accept that there is nothing that can be done since our great creator is nowhere to be found. It does suck tho Saga. Ive learned (if I have the patience at the time) to occasionally refresh the page to see if my pr got nibbled down some before I build more.
Also, I discovered that the problem occurs more frequently when I use Anfit`s Mod.... I dunno if the mods the issue or because I use that computer more often than my smartphone... |

99+ day(s) ago | I realize that Darth i idid appreciate the help. i guess it would be nice to have my word mean something obviously i wont build out right away when i know the counter is there waiting for me circumstances would make what i said true.
Anyways maybe the point is NOTHING has been done to fix it .
50 it IS an attack bug not a timing issue , the game failed to stop me from building after i had been hit and lost 3 borders like it was supposed to.
The game should not have let me build but it didnt and i lost 6 planets and of cours a few more moments ago when i came out to try to get borders if hte game hadnt messed me up i would have lost 3 planets instead and including my latest foray to get borders i lost 17 planets
Ya great way to grow the game great way to keep players here |

99+ day(s) ago | TL;DR - Stuff happens in GC, move along... |
IuztheEvil
99+ day(s) ago | First, I`m glad you are not lothor. Second I know there`s nothing you guys can do. I had just assumed this issue would have been resolved by now...so I got what I deserved for assuming stuff I guess... |
