Sooo, let me get this straight. Your going to take a spreadsheet that is strewn with timers and stops and add another stop to it and try to tell people that it will make it better?
Soooo not feeling it.

Yes I'm quoting my OWN post but here's the thing...
While sitting on the toilet a few minutes ago i found myself thinking about all this captcha crazyness and have came up my own suggestion that i think is much fairer on everyone than the current system and its so simple i can't believe none of your techies have got on to it yet. Instead of having indvidual players interupt their game to stop and type a captcha why not just pause the ENTIRE server? Then everyone is entering the code at the same time and no-one is getting one over on their handicapped opponent, once EVERYONE has entered the code correctly and we're all sitting comfortably and ready to go un-pause the game and we all continue. Genius huh?
Now I normally charge for idea's such as this Evony but im preppared to wave my fee for the greater good and benefit of the whole community so we can see this current situation resolved..![]()
1. Account sharing also prevents you from taking cities..
2. True you can kill an online defenders troops and take their resources, theres many more variables that come into play than does attacking a bot... And a bot really doesn't have any ability to protect troops. Ultimately an online defender has the advantage over an attacker unless lacks combat skills, or pure overpowered imo.
You don't need to use one or even have someone explain you about one to know what it is or how it works... Maybe for some people but this isnt the only game there made for. So many games have them dating back Long before evony was even thought of.

so this means that Evony will ignore their by-laws , their own rules , and not ban accounts. i believe its time to find another game to play not owned by these same folks.. what a shame..
Farming 24x7 is an ENORMOUS advantage, but you clearly don't think it is, else you wouldn't be using the words "unfair beyond farming". The words "unfair beyond farming" translate to "ONLY", as in you don't think that's much of an advantage.
Also, your statements apparently apply to yourself, because how could you know what they can or cannot do, going by your own obtuse logic?
You are able to click on the post it references, I believe. If not, then I'll provide you with some help:So because I express my opinions here by quoting and responding to a few individuals, I get one that can't face people.
trolling - denial of intent - sense of entitlement that you do not have - tired of seeing you and those of you on your side of the issue lob insults at people's intelligence (ad hominem attacks) rather than discussing the pointsYou got the negative rep from me because you chose to condense what I said to "some drivel about nothing and took quotes completely out of context" rather than discuss the merits or demerits of what was posted.This is my negative rep. Thank you to whomever sent it. I will wear it like a badge of honor, for I faced you and you could not face me. That is honor.
...and you're welcome. I call it like I see it.
BTW, your side is ultimately going to "win" in this, because I don't think the company is going to follow through. So, enjoy the "victory"...

these captchas suck,How am i expected to fill blank when i can't even see a number or letter.If you want to use captchas then at least make sure we can read the damned things.furthermore we use fillers as part of our strategy & thanks to these changes EVONY WILL LOSE MONEY.If we can't fill opponents state then its no use coining to buy ports to get into those states.
Evony is making it far more difficult than it has to be. There are only 2 angles to approach this.
A. You want to maintain the integrity of the game, and you want people to play by the rules. If this is the case, you need to ENFORCE the rules by offering suspensions for ANY violations of the rules.
B. You just care about money. If this is the case, you enforce the rules as above, offering the chance to pay a fee to avoid the suspension. Another idea that has been mentioned is to introduce an Evony approved bot people could spend coins on.
Either way, you aren't going to accomplish anything without enforcing the rules.
Neko, I believe I used opinion many times in my write up. You and only you are the one that keeps thinking I am taking sides. You and only you are the one that took quotes from me out of context and chose to insinuate my position from them. Hence the reason I referred to your last post to me as drivel.
My comments do apply to me. I had no idea what a bot was or what it did until someone explained it to me and this was just within the last month and I have been playing since Jan '10. This is the first web-based online game that I have ever played. There have even been people in this thread that have asked. Not all people go out of their way to find a way to cheat.
I knew which post it referred to, though that did not give me the name of the person. If I am not mistaken, I did make a point of our last posts being of topic. Also, how can one discuss merits or demerits of what was posted when you butcher the intended posting to start with?
My side wins. Again you assume. Has anyone ever told you what happens when you assume? Evidently not. This is no victory. I hope Evony continues in their efforts to find solutions to all of the cheating that goes on. I think the only reason they went after botting in the first place is because it was a cheat that was out of their control and they were not making money from it.
Think about it. Multiple accounts=multiple places for a coiner to spend money, multiple places for anyone to spend money if they need to go away on holiday.
Account watching=someone saving your account so you continue to play and pay, someone saving your best hero so you stay and pay.
Botting=no money, accounts can be run 24/7 by them, only reason to holiday your account is if you do not have a watcher.
I did not win a victory here Neko, far from it. My thinking was that there had to be a better way and maybe Evony did listen to a few of those smart guys posts about how they could do it.
I think we both want the same thing. You want it using this atrocious method and I think there is a better way. I just hate the thinking that something is better than nothing. It is not in this case.
