Ofcourse, you are not 100% protected, but all of the above stuff helps, actually
    can they constantly provide you with food? since you won't be able to farm for certain period of time until you are back? who would warn them that an attack is coming near to you? I mean they can protect you after the offender pretty much takes a whole chunk of your defenses? don't be so confident ^_^

    I would be clever enough to make sure I had food enough before going on vacation, vacation is never a surprise to you, you know it often long time before. Since my cities are heavily defended, people would need to clear traps/abatis long time before hitting. And if you havent noticed, those war reports can be seen under "alliance", something most people check once in a while, while playing. Do you even know anything at all about this game?

    lol, I know that, don't make assumptions ^_^ that's why I said, they will know you are under attack after the offender has taken a whole chunk of your defenses, meaning the attack will only appear in the war reports after it has already hit. they will not know any impending attack. do you even know how to really use war reports on alliance? ^_^

    I have a fealing we could keep discussing this, but I have taken down heavy defended cities (200-300k archers + layers), and it takes a lot! of time to remove just 500 traps and 1000 abatis, as they will keep respawning. Now the cities I took down, had 5000 traps/1000abatis/1000logs/1000trebuchets/rest AT, it took several hours to remove just the traps/abatis/logs/buchets, so I could hit with my battering rams. And I had teleported in 10 mile range of the city I attacked, and I had 10 outgoing waves all the time, leaving the city with no mayor. The dude had plenty of online friends who noticed the attack long time before I had finished cleaning defenses, unfortunetly for them, he had forgot to allow garrisoning.

    # So, on topic, I consider a strong alliance, good defended cities, embassy with "open gates", just another good way to defend yourself when going away

    your kidding? it's not hard to clear traps and abatis etc etc if you don't use battering rams, you can put a lot of other troops like, warriors to clear the traps, cavs also takes down a lot of traps than abatis,.... which won't take several hours. ^_^
    anyway ok whatever, I'm just saying VM is already here, most games have free VMs, why do they have to charge us for that? that's just completely insane.

    (edited sorry I didn't really clearly read your last post, you may have a point about taking several hours clearing wall defenses that are heavily guard with archers, I was wrong on that one ^_^)

    Back to the topic.
    Why not have a compromise..

    If you wish to pay, you can pay, say 5 cents per day AND since you're paying, you can choose exactly how long you want vacation mode to last, minimum starts at say 3 days and cooldown of 7 days.

    If you don't want to pay, then you can enter vacation mode, but each day you lose certain amount of resources, or mayor loses experience etc and minimum vacation duration is 7 days with a cooldown of 30 days.

    Or something along those lines, otherwise, this move is just ****ing everyone off.
    They hit 10m players and gave non-paying players nothing, I'm sure even christmas they'll give us nothing.

    Making us pay for vacation mode is stupid. Evony's management and staff is terrible.

    I assume by free to play they meant that all features were free to play?
    This feature clearly isn't.

    Evony you need to offer a compromise to non-paying players.
