    I can deal with the crop circles, it's the haunted baseball fields that creep me out.

    k what is with this, we totally got off topic. iIf you spend money you deserve the boost because your making it possible for the nonspenders to even be there. I have spent money and am tired of people saying that spending money makes you a bad player.

    But it doesn't make you a good player, either, but it can cover some glaring deficiencies of a bad player.
    But....the eternal ray of sunshine REALLY wanted to see you, so I helped brighten your day by removing the city from around you! ^.^

    I totally agree with this. I once sent a new alliance members like 2mn resources using a few hundred thousand cavs and he said that those cavs must have "cost a lot of money".
    In reality, I've only spent like $30 in real money, but i've "spent" a lot of time and hard work.
    I guess if time=money....

    That's amazing!
    Especially considering Evony started in 2009.

    I did about 2 seconds of research and found out that you are correct that Microsoft's first ever click fraud prosecution was in 2007. But, it was not against an Evony that did not exist yet. Microsoft filed its first-ever lawsuit over click fraud, seeking $750,000 in damages from a Canada-based trio who allegedly orchestrated a massive online scam via its pay-per-click search ads. The trio - Melanie Suen, Eric Lam, and Gordon Lam - are a mother and her two sons.

    Two things make a good evony playier in my opinion: SKILL and TIME!
    I did spend some money but it went ONLY on medals and some random ports.
    So, whiners...stop hiding behind the "big money player" excuse!
    This reminds me of people saying I took steriods.
    I say the same thing, screw you and then i beat the crap out of them.
    Now that I older and wiser, I realized it was a complement at the same time denial.

    When people say that, they say it because they think the most logical thing, how is that possible, so they justify it by saying another logical thing, most be this or that.

    So if someone says that, you should take it as a compliment.

    AND evony is trying to make people spend money by making it so you can't get medals from NPCs just from valleys with is still pretty rare. and if you want proof just ask anyone from server SS1
    Players improve and adapt, so what's may be hard then are became practical, so evony had to adapt the same way the players do.

    In a way it levels th eplaying field for the hardcore veteran and your average player to a degree, other wise, you will have all the hardcore hitting prinzessin in a month or less, while everyone else has to try and figure things out.

    Some information are a guarded secret, only a Privilege few knows most of this trick and tips passed on from elite to elite or a selected few.

    NICE BURN ROTA! I WAS GONNA SAY NICE CATCHING THAT, BUT I THINK YOU MORE OR LESS THREW IT RIGHT BACK WHERE IT NEEDED TO GO!!!

    Ok but, now back to the topic.

    You should at a certain point do what you can to spend at least $30 bucks on this game if you play for months and like it, do it show your support!

    You can pick up ultimate gamer cards (prepaid) and then notice after you buy stuff what ppl say "how'd you get to baron so fast" or "How you attack me with all those troops, after I killed them all yesterday?".

    Any one who says a P2P player is more advantaged needs to go back to the war collage cuz i got a list of those players that have learned from f2P
    players and been thankful to have that boost along with some extra cents.

    Dont go raggin on people that are truly immersed in this game loving it spending on it and if you do always recognize their efforts have allowed you to even have a place to rag on them.

    Like wise you cash maniacs lay-off the lil guys and let a F2P player get a chance at a fair fight before you nuke them! With that said most big whale cash players go after other whales or sharks close in size. So if your not understanding in nature of the economics of this game from stem to stern read up pay up or (Insert Next Funny Word)

    GL to All Evony players Esp. the underdogs who spent $5-$30 bucks to beat a $1000 dollar a month player. Just so that after the fact when they farmed a F2P for a quick lumber boost, they could hear you rag on them as if they were the mega shark they just took out saving 1/3rd of your alliance.
