I also agree that vacation mode should operate the same as a truce would. It doesn't seem like this would require much of a change to the game and it would fix an exploit that (no offense intended) crappy players use when they have a case of sour grapes.
Honestly, I find it ridiculous that anyone would suggest that I should teleport out of my npc fields because somebody is attacking me with 1 wagon from 300+ miles away. Especially considering that in the current case, the reason he is so upset is because I forced him (or his alliance mate...i'm not entirely sure who is behind this particular alt account) out of my field. Why would I fight over the field, kill him fair and square, and then port out because he sent one wagon at me in the hope of exploiting my RL issues and at the same time caused me to NOT spend money on the game that I would otherwise be spending in order to go into vacation mode.
Now I realize that my case is not as extreme as the OP's, but this guy logs in every three days or so to send attacks at me from one city, camped in such a way as to keep my birdie constantly flashing. Sometimes he sends them at one city, and sometimes he sends them at all 3-4 (I'm on a newish server and still medal farming). He is 324 miles away, has .602%--not 6.02%, but .00602--of my prestige, and his pres hasn't changed the entire time he's been attacking me. If this isn't an alt account/exploit of the game, I don't know what is.
*Gets down on hands and knees* Please, please for the love of all that's good and holy, can we get a simple fix for this?
