Evony is a business. It exists to make money, not to entertain us.
The idea is to have a war game in which people fight each other, and buy 'boosters' of various types to give them an edge. NPC's are intended to be more of a side game that somehow ended up being the focus.
If you play counterstrike, you don't all run around being polite to each other while gathering all the pickups you can. You fight ! You shoot guy in the head and feel good about it. The same is meant to apply here. Stop playing simcity, get out there and fight somebody.
Some call it griefing, the dev's probably call it ' the game as its meant to be played.' Keep on fighting, spend a few bucks on boosters every now and then.
The pity is that with so much potential, they haven't managed to get their formula right yet, as is very clearly shown in the posts above.
