Ok, this has been REALLY bugging me for the last few weeks so here goes my suggestion on the colonization feature of age 2.

It seems to me, people hate the colonization feature, from age1, and people who have started now are fine with it. the people who love it are the ones that sucked in age 1.. no offence I have devised a simple configuration of the 'colonization' feature to involve 'plundering' 'conquering' AND 'COLONIZATION'.

Firstly, evony should change the feature to something different, like 'attack'. and combat would stay the same. BUT if you attack a player's city 20 times, in quick succession, then you would get a report saying that you have reached the point of attacking where you can either stop attacking and wait 8 hours to suppress the city for colonization. This will offer the city facing colonization some time to gather troops and make a stand, also, to get help from alliance members or something. That is colonization. THEN> if you want to conquer the player's city, then you attack 20 times more!! then you wil get another report saying that you have 8 hours till supression until you conquer the city!! (THIS WILL BRING TOGETHER PLUNDERING, COLONIZATION AND CONQUERING, EVERYONE WILL BE HAPPY!!!!)

Also, to make it EXTRA fair to all those cryers out there(again, no offence just making it dramatic and heard), offer 'rounds' that limits your attacks. like, after 10 attacks there is a 24 hour cool down to tell you that you have reached half way till colonization, and your attacks to the particular city are disabled(same goes for after 10 attacks from colonization point). This will definately offer time for the victim to gather troops, replenish resources, and get help too

So, please post what you feel about this, and EVONY REPRESENTATIVES OR OTHER, PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! AND MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN!!
