I guess I can say I wouldnt be so agaist the npc sweeps if a: the big coiner alliances didnt make a bunch of filler accounts that land in my fields so they can sneak in on me. Or the lowbie players I beat on all the time couldnt suddenly make level 1 npcs out of all the former level 10s I had that evony just destroyed. I pay in blood by using my troops time and money to make these fields why arent they protected as an investment, add those other factors to sweeps and it creates a whole new issue that goes way past just removing npcs.
