This discussion is about the recent changes. Not botting, account sharing or whatever else is getting people stirred up.

Try and keep it on topic and we may be able to make some sense of all of this.

Closing the valley/free food marching bug has nothing to do with any of this.

It doesn't put people on an even keel with the botters because cheating to beat a cheat is irrelevant.

Drop the subject and propose some logical arguments for why evony's latest change is impractical.
OK, point taken and agreed.

I have posted, clearly and emotively, on the other thread, so I'll put it here as un-emotively as possible.

1) The ability to collapse multiple waves into a single rallyspot wave in a valley was something that has been crucial to defending properly against many attacks. I believe, from information I read when a noob on s16 and following the startup guide, that this was part of the game design. I believe it should be put back.

2) The free food was absolutely a glitch that was being exploited... don't have a problem with it going.

3) The Quick Reinforce was absolutely a glitch that was being exploited... however, given the fact that Evony are unable to catch the botters (not going on about that), and do advertise as Free Forever, perhaps instead of removing this, it could have been embraced and sanctioned... or even something similar. This does provide a way for real players who love the game to compete with those who are making a mokery.

Evony need people to pay.
If the only way to play and compete is to be jobless with no life... how will Evony get money?
