    Default Fanmail aka Hate mail

    Can someone who send these kind of mail tell me the purpose of it?

    Grovelling mails are obviously to try and get you to stop but fanmail I believe is to ask you to continue right? My interpretation of various sentences are:

    Statement:
    You should be ashamed by picking on someone smaller than you.

    Interpretation:
    You should come and have a go at me.

    Statement:
    You F***ing this that and the other, I'll come back and get you you little **** (or anything along those lines)

    Interpretation:
    Come and hit me some more

    I may have misinterpreted the first statement because the two people who have said that to me will not give me their co-ords and when I found one of them, I get 4 attacks on me (after I spent hours capping cities to get close to them) and then no further action.

    I just want to know the purpose of sending fanmail and hate mail, not that I don't like them but what the sender hopes to achieve by sending them.

    To those who feel prestige is everything then they can think again. Just because someone with a million prestige is hitting someone who had 300k prestige or whatever doesn't necessarily make it unfair. This is a war game, if high prestige players can not hit someone lower then whats the point?

    Perhaps I should keep leaving my alliance and get to 1k prestige! Would that then make me a hero for capping a 2mill prestige players city? I would like an answer from a certain player called G_ _ _ _ n. So if you are reading please reply.

    *disclaimer* This is by no means an insult to anyone but I am seriously seeking answers to the hate mail purpose and why some people seem to think that higher prestige players are not allowed to hit lower prestige players (at times of war) I never hit lower players unless they are at war with the alliance or inactive and I need that valley spot and trying to get evony to delete that account.

    *edit* When I first started on s69, I came out of BP with only 20k archers and next to no layers. I get home one day to find Lynxern (I hope he doesn't mind me naming him :P) had cleared out my city of resources (To those not on s69 this is a typical PKU alliance move) and I had nothing left. What did I do? I didn't send hate mail or anything as I didn't see the point. He sent 100k at me and the server was I believe about 8/9 days old. I chose to tele away to rebuild hoping to get him back when I am strong enough. I wrote down the co-ords of his city and a week later poof, he left the area. Now I think about it, i thank him for teaching me how to defend. I saw the report and learned from it so i don't understand why hate mail is sent because apart from getting you more attacks it seems to serve no purpose. If that is the purpose then I will know what to do in the future because obviously the person wants to be in the 0,0,1 club.

    Prestige:
    1) Those who NEED to know already know.
    2) Those who don't know but want to know can look me up.
    3) Those not on my server but want to know (no idea why) can start an account on ss21 to find out.

    HONOR: Currently increasing from attacking in ss21. Ready scouts? ATTACK!

    Fanmail is the common result of a serious condition called "Noobitis". Noobitis can often be identified by "Leetspeak" (aka 13375p34k) in world chat, bragging about "pwning u!!!1!" from someone with almost 20K prestige and a junior battalion, and the uncontrollable compulsion to put hands to keyboard when getting attacked. Noobitis can usually be cured by a) getting a job and moving out of mom's basement, b) multiple waves of 100K troops landing at 3 second intervals on his city and continued until he either quits for a new server or learns how to speak properly.

    there fan mail or hate mail, whichever you prefer to call it had enough of an impact that you wrote a long post in general forum, nuff said on that.
