    I for one must agree with Mythosgeek and Blahblahbl above. We are the players and as such play the whole game set before us. Quit putting your faults on us and correct the real in-game issues. I got an idea for correcting these issues.....how about untill you resolve these in-game problems the Evony Staff's paychecks get reduced to Zero's. Responsibility defined as the ability to respond. Pure and simple.

    Because resources are use able units... Prestige isn't, as I said it doesnt fluctuate.

    But anyways... Things will be worked out as the days come. I hope those of you who honestly deserve your prestige back gets it back. Just let this be a lesson for the future to contact a staff if your unsure if what your doing is a bad thing or not. Don't be like this guy http://bbs.evony.com/showthread.php?t=24966

    who asks obvious and common sense question like #7,6,22,and 26.

    26 would require you to connect with Evonys DBs which is illegal same as 7 in the right mind set.

    I never cease to be amazed at how many threads on this whole board manage to become dialogues.

    Sure the guy was being sarcastic but really, there are some methods like layering and leaving resources in market... so on and so forth that ppl do frequently and we really dont know if these are exploits.

    After all, this NPC pres farming has been on for some time. Everyone keeps doing it frequently like some part of the game only to find it nerfed one day. Yeah, i know entire alliances who use this method. However, evony decided to make an example of a few pitiful players to ensure that half its players dont leave the game in anger.

    Lol, and they discover too that actually some ppl are innocent, causing this whole junk of problems. And yes, i wonder why is evony so discouraging players from attacking barbs. If you read the barb cities description, it says wiping out these barbarians is the job of any lord.

    So i guess yr method is flawed, there are too many could-be-exploits for us to clarify. Or the devs and mods will ban us for spamming lol...
    Demons relent,
    Obey my command,
    Bring forth your fiery ocean,
    Bring forth your mighty destruction.

    MAKE THIS LAND BURN!!!

    Yeah, it'a about as stupid as taking your own picture from overhead in a vain attempt to show cleavage... btw, it didn't work.

    I say BRAVO. Take out the ultimas. It's about damned time a company stood their ground.

    The problem with hitting every one like that is some people did so with in error or test the lvl 10 i also know that several in my Alliance on did this so called exploit once or twice the rest of their prestige was gain the hard way and because of this they lost all their hard work. Several of our members have Quit taking what was done as the last straw these members Had not had their prestige rest to 0. Other Exploits such as medal farming and scout spamming went unpunished. So why be so harsh to those that didn't use the Exploit to the extent of Many others had.

    You need to look a little harder at who really Exploited and who did not and Punish accordingly.

    Maybe Evony should be held accountable for taking it out of beta testing as in the last month or so has shown it was not ready to do so considering the amount of issues and Exploits have been happening.

    I know this may not have come out as intended but i'm rather tired and past my bed time. I hope a better out come for this matter is found soon.

    Default Just an observation...

    At the time I am writing this the poll shows that roughly 34% of the people that are voting that these people have their Prestige reset to 0. I would like to point out the what this is actually showing is that combining the other three options 66% of the people think that the punishment was too severe.

    I happen to think that the punishment was a little overboard. Now keep in mind I am a new player. Ive not once sent any armies out to attack anything. At this moment Im still learning the game and building.

    Skimming over the posts, there are several people out of the quoted "150" that appear to have legitimate reasons for reimbursement.

    Personally If I had been in that stage of the game and if I put myself in that position of trying something and I achieved a desired or positive result I would have continued to do it as well. I would never once have even thought that I was possibly doing anything wrong.

    Considering the amount of time this game takes, to remove more than extra prestige over something so undefined and vague is not the avenue that I would consider to be best.

    Keep in mind that my opinion is from an avid internet gamer and I despise cheating and have reported others for doing so in the past in other games.
    But again I would have never considered this cheating and perhaps others agree.

    Thanks
