They were famous for doing exactly what you are talking about, with lv10 cities that had more than a million of every troop type inside, so there was no way of their victims being able to fight back even when online. When they hit me, the best I could do was barb one city to save the other and then watch while they took me to 0 loyalty.
I would agree that running away after the attack is over so that the victim and their alliance have no chance of retaliation is cowardly... but putting restrictions on teleports would hurt the victims of these kinds of attacks too. Imagine being a noob straight out of BP and having one of those Burnt cities I just described plop down next to you. If that person had just teleported to that spot (perhaps as a requirement of their alliance or something) and they are limited from using the tele again, they are sitting ducks for the bully.
Any feature you take away hurts the weak as well as the strong. That's where the problem comes in.
If the player is just out of BP, and was requested to move there, and there are big players in their alliance close-by, if there is a cool down on moving the city for a period of time, say a couple hours, the hostile player will probably get the fight they want.
My point is, ultimately, that random teleports shouldn't be a ticket to attacking anyone you want with a built-in "get out of jail free" card. Technically, it's not "free" but without the worry of being retaliated against it is (probably closer to bribing the jailer).

oh and another thing people who like spending money on the game so they can do this can be defeated you just need to have a defence....
dont get mad at me for giving my opinion on this
They don't attack those that have a defense, and just because you don't want a cool down on random teleports doesn't mean there shouldn't be one.

But....the eternal ray of sunshine REALLY wanted to see you, so I helped brighten your day by removing the city from around you! ^.^
