Dear Evony representatives:
I am a average player from an average alliance
I have played close to 9 months now, but never spendet a lot of money on this game.
I never made millions and million of troops to send at an enemy, and I dont think I count as a huge hitter.
Nor have I cheated much. (I took over a 2nd acct 8 months ago, but dropped it, since I had enough work with one.....)
I read the "we know there are smirks, bla-bla-bla", but what have we that plays seen?
With the resent "vacations" of cheating players, I think an evaluation of the "punishments" is in place..... so. here I go:
The alliance we fight the most against had around 70% of their members on vacations due to "punishments". We used the most of that time to 0 pop as many of the ones left as we could. (I think we barbed 30 cities in 3 days..)
We also got very good farming done, since we finally had food in our barbs again.
BUT, once they came out of vacations retaliation started. millions and millions and millions of scouts came at us from everywhere. From the same guys that was in vacations due to cheating...
The barbs that was full when they were on vacations all of a sudden became empty... (even the barbs that is 30 miles away from red flags.. dont tell me many players goes 30 miles to farm.....)
They COULD of course be online a lot more to feed their cheating troops, in fear of further "punishments" , but I highly doubt it....
Sending 3 100k scout waves at someone 3 seconds apart, and scouts healing in between?
COULD be that the player has open the right Rally Point and all that, so he gets to heal in between, but I highly doubt it...
Conclusion: What Punishments???. All the troops made by cheating, with resources acquired by cheating are still free to be sendt at others.
Barbs gets farmed by cheating, troops gets healed by cheating.
And Im not taking into consideration that I know of a player that runs 5 accts, and he is still very much in the game with all of them.
For those that eventually come with "stop whining, you cant handle bigger players taking city's of you...........bla...........we have heard it before....":
I have taken and lost city's to bigger and smaller players, cheaters and non-cheaters alike. I play this game cause of the people here, and cause I like it. If a player takes a town from me, Im not gonna cry. Ill rebuild. There is a lot of great players out there that does not cheat. If they are better than me, I don't care much. I just try to be better next time around. Its the challenge that makes this game good. Though losing to a player that is cheating is a bit tougher to swallow.
You can only swallow so many camels....
For those that is gonna try telling me off for grammars/rubbish language, English is my 3d language. Id like to see some of you do better in your 3d languageDear Evony representatives:

Conclution: What Punishments???. All the troops made by cheating, with resources accuired by cheating are still free to be sendt at others.
Barbs gets farmed by cheating, troops gets healed by cheating.

And IMHO its better to lose fair, than win cheating. I guess you cheaters also use code in Wolfenstein!
For those that is gonna try telling me off for grammars/rubbish language, English is my 3d language. Id like to see some of you do better in your 3d one......
The last and most important one. What changes have you guys noticed since the mass "vacation"? Cause I cant see much change!
Dont make this a "what punishments should be given" or "why people cheat" thread though... I just want to know if anything at all came out of this......
And for last: come on you honest players!!!
