The attacks on a dead city are twelve hourly, just in case.

Move to where is the question ? It is wall to wall NPCs with hostile to me, even though I am not in an alliance.

Driving the casual player out and letting the barbarians in appears to be the mantra, rather than drive the barbarians out.

The whole area around the player is a cemetery, dead cities everywhere.
this is a great example of the kind of player that is usually Shouting the loudest for a merge.it is obvious that if there is no troops in a city the person has some real life issues they may be sorting out.
would it be so hard to try and take care of your REDS? i want ppl to battle for weeks and months to come not servers littered with dead cities and ppl screaming for a merge.

it is ok to plunder cities once a day but every now and then leave them be for a week.Especially on old servers like 138 that have never been merged ,its pointless to expect someone to keep 300k of every troop type in a city when the distance between active players precludes any battles.
A year and a half approx i have kept roughly 400k archers and 200k of every other troop per city ,i needed a break and because i have a large family and no cash to spare i started an alliance of 1 with an intro saying that this is just a temporary break and would they leave my castle and hero alone for 2 weeks.
it will be an interesting experiment if in a fortnight i go back to see if my hero is still there if not ,my days are over and i will leave all the ppl complaining about a dead server behind.Because sometimes it is their own actions which made it that way.
