Hopefully this will help stop people from creating npc farms which are polluting the landscape.

No.... They'll create more npc farms. If there's less in one source, the method of survival is to create more.
I am ALL FOR this fix. It helps those of us who play by the spirit of the rules ENORMOUSLY.
I didn't medal farm when medal farming was in vogue. I didn't scout spam when scoutspamming was the in thing. And while I farmed NPC's when it made sense to do so, I didn't make myself dependent on it for daily maintenance.
And now I'm in a great position to advance up the standings as a result of respecting the real rules rather than the rules of "do whatever you can get away with."
And instead of raiding me, all the old players stuck in their old ways will be trying to make NPC cities work for them and spending all their time cultivating Barbarian Farms. Hallelujah.
You rock, Devs!
The BIGGEST problem w/ this change, is lack of notice, or even posting that it is happening. No reposnce, no notice, no caring.

So, now the complaint has degenerated to "they didn't give us notice."
We are making progress.
I am not easy food. I've got 7 cities and a decent sized army and am surrounded by allies. If someone wants to pick a fight they can bring it. If someone is really struggling feeding their massive army, and wants to pick a fight with me, I can help them with that problem though. They'll have a lot fewer mouths to feed when they return home.
